Congress will adjourn for the holidays on Dec- We ask pardon for putting the cart betore the horse in one of our editorial paragraphs of yesterday. The South Carolina conference of the M. E. Church, South, ad journed Monday night and the preachers have all gone to their homes, some to stay and others to pack up and seek new fields of labor. Abbeville, where the aepsions of the conference were held, is a charming little city set among the hills and the inhabitants thereof are a whole-souled, generous hearted, hospitable and altogether charming people. Their homes were thrown wide open to delegates and visitors, and all that could be done was done to make pleasant the stay of those thrown for a season in their midst. And was the stay pleasant? Ask any vis itor, and the answer will be: “The sessions of the conference were in teresting and instructive, and I heard some grand preaching. As for the people of Abbeville, there are none better. They treated us only as a generous people can, and the short time i spent amongst them will abide with me as a happy memory.” CHURCHES & SOCIETIES EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

IU- FKATERNA ETERT ASSOCIATION The Baltimore Bun writes tereatiugly on the “draw-backs of a College education,” commenting on President Thwing’s article in the last Forum. The drawbacks noted are: college life may pro- motc laziness and the habit of liking and doing what is agreea ble. Students now are allowed too many liberties. “They are not obliged to get up early in the morning as in former times or tc do any thing they do not like with the result of excessive self indul gence and failure to acquire train ing for an energetic and indus trious future.” Aud then egaiu “sport” in many colleges holds the place of honor against books and, in the opinion of the writer, bi\se ball, foot ball and dissipation absorb time and money and deprave the character. But, says Prof. Thwiug many of these draw backs are imaginary. The courtesy and refinement of the ‘ college bred” man are pro verbial. Hustling, not luxury, characterizes the life of the vast majority of college students. They direct most great modern indus trial enterprises. They attain skill and mastery of a business much faster than the non-colleg- iate &c. The last of the comments are on linguistic training and we are glad to see a survival of the old doctrine in these words “A train ing in Latin and Greek is of the greatest worth.” These are “not dead but living languages.” Meets quarterly.

Washington, Dec. 15.—Senator Morgan, Democrat, of Alabama, occupied more than an hour in the Seliate to-day in presenting an ar gument to show why the United States should at once intervene to put an end to the war in Cuba. He declared that the people and the fruits of the islaud were made the prey of commissioned gueril las, who had become robbers, cut throats, assassins, ravishers and pirates, aud he said that if the United States were to intorrene a; all he would prefer open war, am would vote for it. At the con clusion of Senator Morgan’s speech the resolution offered by him yes terday, requesting the President to communicate papers relating to the condition of affairs in Cuba was agreed to. A resolution for an inquiry into the corrupt use of money in the late Presidential election was of fered by Senator Allen, Populist, of Nebraska, and was, under the IT COST. AT COST.
