The ig exercises commenced with a prayer meeting in the Hanover street church, at 9 o'clock in the morning. The Rey. Mr. be gedes d resided over the services. ey were commenced by Father Daniel Webb of the Providence Conference, the oldest effective travei- ling preacher in the United States, by reading the 762d hymn, begianing—“ God of my life whose graciow® pow- er,” and followed by an appropriate prayer. ‘A brief address was then delivered by the pastor of the church, J. H. Twombly, who gave some historical ac- count of Methodism in this city, and welcomed the fathers and brethren to the feativities of the occasion. ev. B. R, Hoyt next led in prayer, and was followed by Rev. D. Kilburn, of Enfield. Father Webb then addressed the meeting. He said he had travelled fifty-seven years and was not weary of the work yet. He was followed by father Snelling, who was present at the laying of the corner stone of the Alley church; and by the Revds, Daniel Fillmore and D. Kili- burn. ‘The former was stationed in this city, with Eli- jah Hedding, long a bishop in the church.

Thirty-five years the Lord awakened his soul. There was a glorious revival in (iad and Malden in 1819-20, when ther Hoyt and Brother Ransellaer Osborn, who were the preachers in Boston, often visited those places. Brother Ho; was now present, Then there was one annual conference in the whole New tes Now there were six. The conference at which he was received two years atterwards, which was held in Maine, was attended by a large body from this city. On their return they were driven into Cape Ann by a stoum. His first appointment was to Scituate: his next to Sand- wich eireuit; his third to Rochester circuit; and his fourth appointment was to this city, twas sigty years ago since the foundation stone of their first church was laid in this city; and it was well to review what had been the fruit of their labors. He felt confident in saying that through their instrumentali- ty, spiritual Christianity had been revived and carried forward extensively in the world. Mr. Sargent then urged the maintenance of the system of apostolical itin- eraney, without which it was questionable whether all their purity of doctrine would avail. They must have either an {tinerant ministry or an itinerant people. It revented a vast amount of formality which sprung up From the want of changeableness, He spoke of the hard labor and sacrifices formerly re- quired in itinerant preaching, when the only mode of conveyance was by vehicles drawn by horses. Others, besides Parson Cooke, had endeavored to pour contempt upon Methodism, and endeavored to show that it had done evil and not good; but he (the speaker) could bear gestimony that it had done him good, and he thanked ‘od for the good he had seen accomplished in others in this as in other places. After a few further words from the Rey. Mr. Wann, of Providence, the company broke up, after singing the Doxology, and then repaired to partake of a collation in the vestry room, below the church. A love feast takes place this afternoon, and a public meeting in the evening. Anti-Liquor Law Convention In Massachu- setts, A State Convention of those opposed to the principle of the prohibitory liquor law, was he'd on the 30th ult., at the City Hall in Worcester. The attendance was not very large, but the proceedings were marked by a considerable degree of enthusiasm and unanimity. F. D. Pecch, of Springfield, was nominated for Governor, and Mores I'avenport, of Newburyport, for Lieut. Gover- nor. For Secretary of State—Wm. Denton, of Boston; Treasurer—Arthur W. Auston, of West Roxbury; Audi- tor—Wendell T. Davis, of Springfield; Attorney-General— Geo. 8. Hillard, of Boston. ‘The following resolutions were passed:— Resolved, ‘Ihat their highest political interests call upon the people of this Commonwealth to put down the reck- less, fanatical and tyrannical spirit of tegialation which has given origin to the so-called Muine law, by rebuking the same at the ballot box, and electing such men for law makers as will purge the statute book of that and all other acts of unjust and illiberal character. © Resolved, That the lawin question ix oppressive, im practicable, useless, unjust and unconstitutional; un- ‘worthy of the present enlightened age, disgraceful to our sncient free Commonwealth, and abundantly in- dicatiye of the self-constituted, arrogant and irresponsi- ble body by which it war framed, and of the secret po- litical cabals by which it was enacted, Resolved, That the robbery of the property which this law perpetrate:—the falsehood, fraud and hypocrisy which it inculcates, its ban upon the rites of hospitality, and kindly offices of charity, {ts direct encouragement to mercantile dishonesty, and its insulting assumption of guardianship over the individual, stamp it as the most unehristian and anti-republican act that ever disgraced the statute book of Massachusetts. Resolved, That any and every attempt to legislate for the establishment of sumptuary laws, should be resisted by the people in every legal manner by which it may be competent for them! to resist. Resolved, $hat it is the right of the citizen to engage in any such legal pursuits as may be convenient and agreeable to himself; that it ix not'the appropriate busi- ness of the government to engage, through the agency of municipal corporations, or public commissions, in trade of commerce, to the exclusion of the great body of the community. Resolved, ‘That monopolies are not objects within the purposes of a government, established for the protection and encouragement of equal rights, and the people owe it to their safety and comfort to oppose the establish- ment of such monopolies by an open and determined exercise of every constitutional mode of resistance. Resolved, That the ancient and invaluable right of trial by jury is invaded by the law in question, the con- stitution of the United States set at defiance, in the as- sumption to regulate commerce between the States, and the audacious attempt made to arrogate to the Legisla- ture the power to make that a common nuisance which has bitherto been universally regarded as property. Resolved, That the powers, assumed by the law in question, are as arbitrary and tyrannical as those exer- cised by the Inquisition itself, requiring but one ste further, to establish secret arrest by disguised “fami- liars,” and midnight condemnation by subterranean in- quisitors. Such a law is a sad commentary upon the intelligence and sincerity of those, among its authors, who cry aloud without ceasing against the dangers of Popizh Inquisitions. ‘exolved, That we call upon all good citizens, of every party and every profession, to unite with us in an effort to break down the illiberal spirit of legislation which has Possessed our State, and to exorcise the game from our statute book. Resolved, That the ensuing State election, being solely for State officers, and not involving any national issuc, presents a peculiarly favorable opportunity for organiziny and acting efficiently in behalf of liberal legislation, an¢ we therefore call with confidence upon all liberal men, of whateyer party, to unite with us in the choice of offi- cers for the administration of our State government. upon the bread and equal platform of Liberal Legislation in State matters. Resolved, That for the purpose of effecting a thorough State organization, a State Central Committee of twenty- one, proportioned among the counties according to their senatorial representation, giving to every county, how: ever, one member, be appointed by this Convention, and empowered to take all necessary ‘measures to rglly the friends of fberal legislation to unite in harmonious action, so that their influence may be made most effective at the ballot box. Great Democratic Mass Convention tn Indiana. Democrats to the number of thirty thousand assem- bled at Indianapolison the 29th ult., for the purpose of holding @ grand mass convention. The multitude was addressed by Governor Wright, Lieutenant Governor Willard,g Judge Hovey, Colonel May, anda number of other distinguished individuals, The following resolu- tions, which have a decided hard shell appearance, were adopted. Not a word is said about the President or his administration:— Resolved, That we claim with pride the name of Na- tional Democrats—that we are old liners, and always ex- pect to follow old lines so plainly marked by the patriots and sages of the revolution in the Declaration of Inde- pendence and the Constitution of the United States; our name is as unchangeable as oar principles, as immutable as the foundations of the Union. Resolved, ‘Ihat we announce our hostility to all secret political societies and organizations, as being inimical to the genius of our institutions, and revolting to the pride and manly spirit of free and intelligent people-— that we deeply deplore the frequent scenes of giot, out- rage, murder, arson, and desolation, which have been oc- casioned by these more than Jacobin organizations, and that we appeal to every man who values good reputation and an honorable name among his fellow men, to lose no time in separating himself from so foul a conspiracy, for he that counsels and associates with men who connnit these most revolting erimes, is a participant in thelr avilt, and morally, if not legally, responsible for their acta, Resolved, That we hereby proclaim our decided hos- tility to the prineiples and conduct of that sectional and fanatical party known as ab «ts and disunionists throvghout the Northern States; that we view their pro ceedings with increasing apprehension of great injury to the peace and prosperity of our common country, and as being diametrically opposed to the provisions and re. quirements of the Constitution of the United States which, if violated as they propose, must bring the dread: ful result of disunion, civil war, and the ruin of our be- loved country—the destruction ‘of the last pillar which sustains the temple of liberty on earth. Resolved, That we cordially reaffirm the principles of the Democratic National Convention of 1848 and 1852. as embodying the only practical system of action which can be taken in any great national question to wi they refer, and as best tending to perpetuate the pe harmony and Integrity of the Union. Pesolved, That we most positively and unequivocally condemn and oppose all attempts to control by force or violence the right of free suffrage of citizens at the polls ihe tn States or ‘a Territories 4 by Union. Pe wil of the people properly expressed is the high: rw; bu if that fexpreasion be fted or defeated, there is an end of civil government, and a failure of the power of the people to protect themselves. Resolved, That we view with disgust and disapprobation the conduct of non-resident Know Nothing bullies in Missouri, or hired abolition fanatics from Massachusetts or elsewhere, in interference with the legal rights of actual settlers in Kansas to vote as they please, or de- Prive them of the sacred and inestimable privilege of de. ciding laws which are to govern them as citizens of that Territory. Resolved, That we cordially invite all men of tional sentiment and faith, to co-operate with uy in maintaining the sanctity of the American constitution, the principles , the tert of the of fanatical abolitionists and of the Declaration of Inde Union, against the attem es, who are aiming to set any one section of deracy against the other and whose ambition di moag police! power wowld tay toy VaPDA Wy Meee the dearest interests of their countcy, and entail the | dreadfu! comsequences of civil war, bioodshed, disunicn an@manarchy upon the ruins of our aow happy, properous and mighty nation. | Resolved, That we will most strenuously maintain the | fundamental principles; the right of civil and religious liberty; the og of the citizen to worship according to | the dictates of his own conscience; the freedom of speech | ani the press; the offering of the benefit of our laws and | institutions to men of every nation and every ctime; the equality of all good citizens, aud the protection of the ernment to every man yho legally claims to be an rican citizen. Charge of Judge Kelley in the Wheeler Slave Case. [From the Philadelphia Bulletin, Sept. 1.) ‘The following is a brief synopsis of the charge of Judge Kelley in the case of the six negroes chargod with assault | and battery committed upon Col. Wheeler;— GeNTLEMBY OF THE JURY—You are about to conclude the trial of these men for riot and assault and battery. Did these parties commit a riot or an asaault? This case is very important in its relations, however trivial in it- self; it has caused much excitement. You and I ought to be free from this—I trust weare. You must be satistiod of guilt beyond a manly, reasonable doubt before conviction of these defendants, The legal statues of the parties is a matter of inquiry in this case, The Judge read from the books the law upon the caso of riot. You must determine whether those men went to do a lawful or an unlawful act. Happily, as the question is an important one, I am not cal to consider this question Rastily, but after much thought, day and night. When-Jane was bey here by Col. Wheeler she and her children were as free ashe was. We recognize the right of returning slaves who escape and come here—we must stand by and en- force the laws of our own State. I accept along of my charge the law as given you dy the District Attor- ney. The Judge then read the Act of 1780, and also the Act ot March 3, 1847. A man may bring his slave into this State, but he makes him a free man thereby, for he may not detain him any time whatever. A slave cannot, by. virtue of the laws of this State, remain upon its soil. The object of the uct was to remove every law from the Statute Book from which ingenuity could make it appear that sla- very could in any way exist here. A riot is a conspiracy, with the element of tumult, calculated to inspire terror, At requires three people, with a common Intent and con! duct, that causes terror. I shall not recall the evidence, the facts are for you. You will aak, did these men go to the boat with a lawful purpose? Did the woman desire their assistance or did they forcibly abduct her? If she did want to go you must judge of theamount of force used. It you are satisfied that they only went to tell Jane she ‘was free. and conduct her toa place of safety, and acted peacefully, you cannot find them guilty. The Judge de- inedan assaultand battery. It is any violent or offen- sive laying hands on a person. It cannot be denied that hands were laid on Col. Wheeler, but it is claimed by the defence that the imposition of hands was only of that gentle character which the law recognizes. ‘The evidence regarding the threat was then examined by Judge Kelley. If you find the common intent you will convict all—if you do not you will inquire what violent act was com- mitted, and by whom, and render a verdict accordingly. ‘The case is now with you, gentlemen, H Music and the Drama.

Winans, and Adkin’s brass band ZovavE THEATRICALS.«-A correspondent writes from be- fore Sebastopol:—The Zouaves resumed last night their theatrical performances in their camp near Inkermann. The theatre is somewhat classical, in being in the open air, surrounded by a small dry stone wall; the seats are simply banks of earth running crosswise, and the stage is one end of a small hut, somewhat elevated above the pit, adorned by rudely painted scenery, representing young femaies amusing themselves with’ flowers, and a distant view of two trees anda pond. The band of one of the regiments was in attendance and formed the or- chestra, None but officers were admitted into ‘the body of the house," or at least none else went in, as those who did #0 were expected to pay something into the box at the entrance for the benefit’ of the wounded, but a vast number of agile individuals from the ranks were crowded along the top of the wall, and intensely enjoyed the whole performance gratis. The ‘salle’ was lighted up by two big paper lantern, stuck on the end of poles. Between those who were seated, and those who were standing, there were certainly not less than one thou- sand persons present. ‘The pieces played were the ‘Per- mission de Dix Heures, and La Question a’Orient,”’ and the acting was certainly excellent, vastly better than the average of that in the London theatres, where the efforts of one or two good performers are marred by the stupidity of halfa dozen absurd ones, All the parts were well played, the actors being private soldiers, who personated the women also, and Wit to the life,’ from the wearing of the jupe loujfante to the play of the hands and the tone of voice. “La Permission de Dix Heures’ ty displays the various dodges by which a private r manages to outdo his Alsatian sergeant in win- ning the affections of a pretty girl, and throwing him into the arms of her ugly old aunt, who was ‘nelly in love with him, but whom he detested. Both private and sergeant were attired in band uniforms borrowed from the hepa Rangers, but so braided and folded as to turn out, with the aid of a three cornered hat, some- thing very like the uniform of an exempt Louis XIV.’s time. There was a great ‘eal of very broad joking, but in a camp, and before such an audience, this went for nothing; they were during the whole time in tears or laughter, though the voices of the performers were ever: minute almost drowned in the roar of the cannon, whic! were dealing death on the other side of the hill. The night was calm and balmy—a glorious Crimean moon silvered the light clouds as I never saw thom silvered be- fore, except on papier mache articles: and after two very pleasant hours spent under her mellow light, in one of the most extraordinary scenes I ever witnessed, walked back to the camp amiist silent and orderly that one short eyes for old ladies coming out of Exeter Hall, the erformance having been concluded by « comic song in Norman patois, the refrain of whieh consisted of two groans and the exe!amation ‘‘Sapristi.”"—Daily News.

Mairinge in the Shaker Society—Mystcrious opine arance of the Bet 4s From the Rochester Democrat, A .) Mr. Wm. H. Tratt called upon us yesterday to re- late the particulars of a recent affair among the Sha- kers located in the town of Groveland, Livingston county. According to Mr. T., he has been among the Shakers for some ten years, having come from St. Louis for the put . Among the female mem- bers of the community was a girl seventeen years of age, named Catherine Lonisa Johnson, who went from this city when she was but two years old. She has therefore been among them fifteen years, and must have been thoroughly trained as a member of the society. It seems, however, that she gave some signs of discontent, and Mr. Tratt not long ago inti mated one ee its pend va leavis vhs John- son ied her willingness to go with him and be- pode wife. How long the courtship had been in progress we cannot state, but on the first of the pre- tent month it ripened into a positive agreement, and on that day the pair left for the residence of El- der Durand, a Methodist minister of Groveland, by whom the marrii ceremony was solemnized. They remained at house of Elder Durand for three days, when Mr. Tratt went to work a week for Mr. Gray. On return he found that bis wife had gone to the honse of Mr. Stevens, who rans the Shaker saw mill. It was ar- ranged that she should remain there until frat com- jeted [pa meg for housekeeping. He again left and worked a week for Mr. Barnes, some two miles from the village of Mt. Morris. Oa his return. to his utter surprise, his ig wife was gone, and he could ebtain no clue to her probable whereabouts. She had inquired of Mrs. Stevens aboat the foamily of another Shaker girl, who resided in Dansville, but careful convinces Mr. Tratt that his wife did not go in direction. It has been ascertained that about the time of her disa) rance—three agers, owe la tae camed Jobscon apd Dg Gryot ie Valley Packet, but it is not known whether they were females. It is said that the name of the oldest female in the society is De Groot, and the wronged husband has some suspicions that she waa in com- with his wife. The Shakers, however, deny all knowledge of the cause of her disappearance and of her nt location. Mr. T., however, states, in opposition, that they were greatly excited at the desertion and marriage of the parties, and followed them up with severe remarks. The affair naturally creates some excitement where it has become known. The young woman has had no opportunity to become acquainted with the world out side of the Shaker society, and it is hardly proba- ble that she has 0 soon deserted her husband with: out the interference of third parties. Who those are it present a mystery. MABITIME INTELLIGENCE, -New York sees FOR CALIFORNIA, &C. Granada.........New York Hay, and eae the ‘Weat..New York. San Juan.
