From all that we hear, it seems that the ex

It aeeins that tbe Secretary of State, instead
of seeking to extenuate Mr. Bancroft' expres

right to complain of it, and that because tha,

it intention of remaining aloof from Mexican

Bishop, Elliott irive notice of too nhi f
the Episcopal diocese of Giaraim writK :
tcsteot Episcopal Church of the United State
The Baltimore CSsnference ef the Methodist
Episcopal Chureli, South, which closed last
night in thi city, ay the Alexandria OcuetU
of Saturday, an agreeable and peculiarly har-
momou session ot eigliluay,coniineu among
its components more refinement, ' learning end,
talent tkajn are usually exhibited in deliberative
bodies of the same size. Among those in at
tendance were many whose distinguished flow
er of theogicel raticionatioB and ecclesiastical
oratory have rendered their names as familiar as
hmiawiotrr mmmrlt'Mfmmmmfmtmt
whose effort in behalf ,of Methodism have aid
ed greatly in the enormous increase and influ
ence of that numerous denomination of Chris
tians. The Conference was presided over by
the venerable and able Bishop Early, and its
action in establishing snd independent Confer
ence, in connection with the General Confer
ence of the M. E. Church, South, meets the
hearty and unanimous approval of its charges.
The religious relation and social associations
formed by a portion of our citizens with
the members of thi Conference will long be
cherished among their foudest recollections.
A gentleman who has beeu travelling through
Mississippi is satisfied that not one cotton plant
ation in ten will lie planted this year, so disor
ganized is the system ot labor; and, taking
that State at a criterion, that there will not be
800,000 bales of cotton raided in the United
States this year.
