LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Bartimong M. E. Conrexence.—The discus- sion upon the question of the adoption of the re. Port of the committee which had been appointed to report upon the resolutions of Rev. Mr Phelps, authorizing the establishment of a weekly reli- gious journal under the auspices of the Balti- ‘more Conference, was continued after our report closed yesterday, After the conclusion of the arguments of Rev. Isaac Gibson in advocacy of — Project, the Conference was next addressed y— “Rev. Mr. Grandin, who also. sustained the com- mittee’s report. He described the uliar wants of the people of his own station, saying that it was not the preachers who desired this journal, but the masses of the le. It was true, some of them took the ‘ Christian Advocate and Jonr- nal,” but that was not such a paper as they re- quired. They wanted something which would be a faithful ex t of their own views and belief such a journal as was proposed by the com- mittee, would, if Properly conducted, receive the cordial support of all the Methodists within the bounds of this Conference. Thousands of families were now without a strictly retigious family paper, and were impatiently awaiting the action of the Contrrence upon the pending report and resolutions. Soch a paper ax the one now Proposed should have been started twenty years ago Rev Mr. Nadas! followed upon the same side of the question, remarking at length upon the reat good the proposed jenrna) was calculated to bring about in the chureh. Its value in xet- ting forth the now somewhat misunderstood, and In nomerous instances, misinterpreted views of the Baltimore Conference would ne great in- dred. The Baltimore Conference, from the pe- culiar position which they occupied as to their Jocation were in a position toact as conservatives and mediators, Rev. Mr. Phelps here moved to take the ques- tion without further debate ; which motion was carried. The question was taken upon the resolutions aingly, aud the first one being read the Confer- ence adopted it by a vote of 101 ayes, to 7 noes. Rev. Mr. Clem here offered a substitute forthe second and third resolutions, so worded as to embrace the essential points of both, snd chang- ing the proposed manner of arrangement for the swid paper; and it was adopted in place of the two original ones. Mr. C. offered aiso a substitute for the fourth resolution, which embraced a detailed plan for the establishment of the propoxed journal; this was also adopted. The tifth resolution provided t!.2t the journal should be called +The Baltimore stian Advo cate; and, pending its adoption, Rev. Mr. Bheips made a speech in favor of the name he had used in the original resotution, viz: the ‘Baltimore Union Methodist,’* but the Con- ference decided, by a heavy majority, in favor of the name reported by the Committee ; so the res- olution was adopted which fixed the proposed paper under the name of the ‘Baltimore Chris- tian Advocate ”* The sixth resolution, which related to the dis- position of any profits which might accrue from the said pablication, was passed with slight clerical amendments. The seventh and eighth resolutions were duly called up aud oo Upon the adoption of the eighth resolution, ledging the Confer nce, as a whole, to the warty support of the proposed paper, their united action to its proper circulation, ete.— Rev. Isaac Collins announced his determina- tion to have nothiug whatever to do with the af- fair; he would neither act as agent for, nor sub- scribe to it, nor would he recommend the paper te any one On motion of Mr. Ciem, Rev. Mr. Collins was excused from any participation in the project whatever ‘The resolution was then adopted. On motion of Rev. Mr. Edwards, certain reso- tutions of last year in relation to a monument to the memory of Bishop Asbury were revived. Rev. Mr. Gilbert, from the committee on the tact society, here mady a report containing a plan giving greater efficiency to the tract cause. Pending any action on this subject the Confer- ence listened with great interest to an able but brief address from Rev. Mr. De Hass, assistant general secretary of the tract interest; at the close of which some dixcussion ensued between Rev. Messrs. Phelps, Gilbert and others as to the best mears of carrying out the plans set forth in the conimittee’s report. The hour of adjournment having arrived the remarks were suspended, and the conference ad- journed with the doxology and benediction. SEVENTH Day. Rev. Bishop Ames occupied the chair this morning.

Clem, Alfred Grif. fith and F Israel Rev. J.R. Veitch presented the yeport of the committee ou the Metropolitan church, Wash- Ingtoa, D. C., stating that only $60 had been col- lected towards this church during the past year That a debt of $1,500 was impending which the trusteex were unable to pay. The committee recommended tbat the said property be leased for aterm of years in order to liquidate the said debt, and if that scheme should fail, then to sell said property, and invest the surplus in such a manner as to let it increase, to be applied to the Purposes of the church at some future day. After some slight amendment, the report was adopted. The report of the committee on the Tract So- clety was here taken up, where it had been dropped yeste:day. and, on motion, was adopted. The committee on the National their report, which was as follow: Whe the National Mayazine is not self supporting, and whereas its subscription list ix decreasing, and iu the multitnde of our periodi- cals it does not seem to meet any want of the churob, therefore— Resolved, That we recommend to the book agents and the book commiittee tu discontinue it.

O THE CITIZENS OF WASHINGTON. Wotrr’s Scueipam AROMATIC SCHNAPPS. The proprietor begs leave to call the attention of strangers and the citizens of Washington, toa very superior article of Holland Gin, which he mtroduced to the American public under the name of Wolfe’s Scheidam Aromatic Schnapps. This Gin is manufactured by tire proprietor exclu- sively at his Distillery in Schiedam, Holland. It 1s made from the best Barley that can be procured in Enrope, at any cost, and flavored and medicated, not by the common harsh berry, but by the most choice botanical variety of the Aromatic [talian Ju- niper Berry, whose more various extract is distitl- ed and rectified with its spirituous solvent. and thus becomes a concentrated tincture of exquisite fia- vors and aroma, altogether transcending in its Cor diai and Medicinal propertiesany alooholic beverage heretofore known. The proprietor has submitted it to nearly the whole Medical Faculty of the United States, and has received answers from about four thousand Physicians and Chemi who endorse it over their signatures as & most desirable addition to the Ma- terin Medica. Persons who purchase should be careful to get the genvine article, as the whole country is flooded with counterfeits and imitations. Put up i. jartand pint botties, in cases of one dozen each, and for sale by’all the respectable Drug- xists and Grocers in the United States.
