THE METHODIST CONFERENCE, Election of District Ghair- WELCOME,TO REV. MR. WADMAN j —_-—- -— ' Monpay,June 27. At the forenoon session, the Sunday | School report, submitted, by Rev. G. M. : Young, was adopted. | Dr. Spraguesubmitted a resolution re- specting a reduction in the price of Metho- | dist Hymn Books, which was warmly en- dorsed by Rev. S. E. Huestis, of Halifax. A motion was adopted providing fora committee to consolidate conference funds. A motion that one layman and one Minister be elected to represent each dis- tricton the Stationary Committee, also carried. At the afternoon session the name of the Miramichi District was changed to the Chatham District. i the of the Yourg People’s Societies which was considered section by section. A report of the Committee on Evange- listic work was presented by ex president vince and in the Dominion at large; and With his party be has proved false to almost every principle and proposition that he maintained while in opposition. If stand- the party and partaking of tie party plunder, and swallowing political ing by privciples for thesake of the pariy, con- | etitute claims and ability for leadership, Mr. Farquharson is eminently qualified and ought to be forthwith elected Leader of the Liberal Party in this Province, But we imagine that his Leadership will be beset with a few difficulties. In the first place his Wise, desires to be made Commissioner of Public Works and will have to be reckoned with and “ made right.” Mr. Jaines R. McLean, too, will doubtless claim a reversion of the Public Works Commissionership, and whether satistied or diseatisfied will certainly prove colleague, Mr. Administration. No doubt Mr. FParquhar- son will have the Publig Works Depart, ment administered upon temperance prin- After disposing of Messrs. Wise and McLean, Mr. Farquharson will have to deal with Hon. Benjamin Rogers, of thie city. Mr. Rogers’ name has been at the bead of the list of those whom Dame Rumor has lately mentioned for the Premiership. His pretensions may, per- hape, be satisfied by a word (of the right kind) from Sir Louis Davies; but the new Leader will have difficulty ino per- suadiog Sir Louis to say the word. Altogetber Mr. Farquharson will, if elected, have abundant opportunity for the exertion ot his powers of finesse, his aby Ag financier and administrator, and his un- doubted genius for taking careof his favorit, pumber, This latter power has, indeed, | been acquired by all the Libertl leaders, from Sir Oliver Mowat to Mesers, Lister and Choquette, Our Liberal gentlemen obtaix & place in Parliament, often by dint <1 bribery and corruption; then they pro- ceed to feather their own nests. The people elect them to serve the country and they hasten to serve themselves. This is ‘ g. But we must not blame Mr Farquharson too severely if he should prove to be an apt exemplar of this funda- mental Liberal principle. ciples. ail wrong 7-ere Halifax Herald: Mr Foster’s estimate for expenditure on consolidated revenue account and on capital account combined, for the year 189697’ was, in round num» bers, $41,200,000.

We view with alarm its ravages in our land, ita desoiating effects in our homes, its awful results iv the degradation and ruin of thoee who become itstlaves. its waste of the national wealth, and its harvest of other evils, And whereas we believe it is the duty of this synod to aid, so far as it is able, all efforts towards lessening aod abolishing these evils : We, therefore, urpe upon the members of the Church ot Eng a: d the necessity of doing a'l in their power to stem the tide of intemperance, by practising self-denial for the good of others, by :nculeating true young, by promo ing the pas age of wire laws for the protection of the community against the ravages of intemperance, and hy elveating public sentiment in the dir- ection‘of greater respect /crlaw ani order, And we earnestly requestthe members of the church to make the whole subject a matter of Constant prayer, and e=pecially before the country, that every act and vote may have the effect of hauishing the great evil of temperance from our midst.” — > 2 + To Cure a Cold in one Day Take Laxative Brom»?
