His eloquent appeals seldom failed to melt the most ha: dened obdurate hearts. Rev.

Eloquent, and ener- getic, he was suited to the Soceee yearael the way for the spread of the Gospel. He,with - erick Stier, another of those bold and le Preachers, were the favorites of the country in which they traveled, and added greatly to the eS aeiey. of the Methodists in Maryland and irginia. Rev. Samuel Davis was also greatly admired and justly esteemed; but in the ime of his life he was removed from his service in this Dis- trict by death Since these, the Baltimore Conference has sta- tioned in the District quite a number of ministers of considerable ability, among them Rev. Norval Wilson, Thos. B. nt, the lamented Geo G. Cookman, and Henry Slicer. About the year 1823 the question of lay repre- sentation was agitated, and resulted in the organ- ization of the Methodist Protestant Church out of the members of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The same question is now again og ited, and it seems that the principle meets with no little ap- probation in the old conferences. The Maryland Con! began its stationing authority A the District, and many talented ministers were thereby added to the Methodist pulpit, some of whom, as Snethen, Shinn and Stier we have already noticed. William Wesley Wallace was one of their min- isters. He was a man of distinguished ability.

Levi R Reese, brother of the eloquent Dr. E. Yeates Reese, of Baltimore.—His career of usefulness ended with his life, while yet in his prime. His discourses while chaplain to Con- ress will never be forgotten by the eminent men, fe members of that eer! who live. Rev.

Like his colaborer Stockton,he is now very feeble, but still continues in the minlsiry. Rew Dr A A Lipscomb —The frequentnotices of this distiaguisbed minister which have ap- peared in the eens, journals throughout the couatry, and the intimate acquaintance of our citizens with bim makes a reference to his talents unnecessary. He isa native of the District, a son of Rev. Win C. Lipscomb, of Virginia. He en- tered early into the ministry in the Maryland Coo- ference, and soon occupied a position with the ablest of the ministers in that or any other-body. Il health indaced bis removal to the State of Ala- bama after aterm of service at the Ninth street station. Since then his labors baving been mainly in connection with collegiate institutions in the South. And recently he been elected to the presidency of the University of Georgia. With such an array of talent one cannot fail to conclude that the mop aed and learning of the Methodist pulpit bas ly ited in the District of Columbia as any portion of the country.

Wasuincton Riries.—This fine corps of our city volunteer military, paraded this morning, under command of Capt. A. Balback, and made a very fine appearance. It has been some months since we have seen this corps on parade, and our citizens were glad tosee them out in excellent con- dition, marching well, and vette, grate ia that they have not been inattentive to their drills. They were accompanied by Esputa’s fine band, and after a short march through our principal streets, proceeded to the Park to enjoy a pic-nic with their friends. Cavucut.—Abraham Neal (col.) was arrested this morning by policemen Carter and Irwin, on a charge of stealing a watch, valued at about $35, from Francis Bush. The prisoner was taken before Justice Donn, where it appeared that Bush was intoxicated and laid down in a place where Neal saw him, and went to him and took his watch which he pawned for money. He was committed to jail by Justice Donn. CONTRACT FoR A NEW ScHOOL-HOTSE.—On Sat- urday Mayor Berret concluded a contract with Messrs.

The house is to be 26 feet 8 inches front, by 40 in depth, and will be neatly finished.
