It was stated in public in the Conference room
on yesterday, during the discussion on the Book
Depository question, that the surest and most ex
peditious route for the transportation of goods
from -New York to Raleigh and other points in
that section of tho State, is by Newbern. Now
this is precisely the thing we have been trying to
impress upon the minds of onr friends in tlie.in-
tori or and western pai't of .the St-"-te all the time.
Indeed, inariy have seen and acted on this fact to
their advanta

whom it may concern.
Educational Journal. The December num
'berof the North Carolina Educational Journal
has come to hand, and is, as usual, filled with use
ful and interesting matter. Ihc committee ap
- pointed to superintend the interests of the Jour
nal have determined to l educe the price of sub
scription one half where clubs of fee awl upwards
are made up. As the only publication in the
State devoted exclusively to the cause of Educa
tion, it should receive a liberal support throughout
our borders.
Lkgislative Documents. We are indebted
to II. C. Jones, Esq., Commoner from this county,
for a number of Legislative documents. If we
ever read them, which is not at all probable, we
doubt not but wo shall do much more than ever
some of the members of that august body have
done. The fact is, Legislative and Congressional
documents and debates are next to the New York
Ledger, the worst literature afloat. -v
Handsome- Litjiogiiapii. We; are .indebted
to the kindness of Kev. W. M. Walsh for a harid
eome'lithograph likeness of the Rev. C. F. Deems.
These lithographs may be had at the book store of
Mr. Walsh, on Pollock street, Newbern Price $1.

"I will not forgive you " exclaimed Helen, her
: dark eyes' flashing with anger, and her lip curling
, with scorn; "'twas; a base, mean act Bella, and I
shall not, cannot forgive it." Bella's eye fell be
neath tho w ithering glance of Helen, and she
burst into tears of shame as Helen moved pioudly
away. Day after day passed and Bella tried in
vain to gain from Helen one word or look of for
giveness. Helen seemed totally unconscious of
the presence, or very existence of poor Bella, and'
. this silent contempt of her former friend, was even
more galling and humiliating to the poor girl than
'violent anger would. have been. .But tho time
fiaiwo. at last, when Bella could, as it were, "heap
coals of fire " on Helen's herd. Twas a cold De
cember night as -black as Erebus,, the rain was
falling in torrents, a!:J the wind blowing a perfect
huricane -Drenched with" ram, and. shivering
with cold, exposed to nil tho iary of the s.torni,
Helen was driven from her ho no by an inebriate
father. Alone in the storm, friendless and heart
sick, the' poor girl fell on her knees and wept in
tho bitterness of her -grief. . No home ! no friend ;
the earth all dark, and Heaven seeming pitiless,
no wonder that her. 'heart was crushed, and she
ready to-welcome death to releave her from her
woe. She raised her eyes, and shining like a star
through the gloom, w as the light iu Bella's win
dow. -.Should she go ? should she seek shelter
from her w hom she had vowed never to for,vivo ?
' were the thoughts that flitted through her brain.
But this was no time for -reasoning or pride; and
. ;w.eejingly she knocked faintly at Bella's door.
A lniiiuro passed, and! Bella opened the door and
started -as s,he saw the pale wet face; of Helen.
Quickly she' drew the poor girl into the .comforta
ble' little pari or ; where, on the hearth a bright tire
blazed,. and .tenderly wiped the wet lioui hcr face,
and kissed her damp cold cheek. . Poor; Helen',
her proud heart melted, and deep humility .sup
plied the place ofangec and scorn; she could not
speak, but hurried her face in her hands, and gave
vent to her feelings in tears, while Bella added in
-every way .to her comfort and addressed her in
kind soothing words. " Dear good Bella, sobbed
Helen, I dp not deserve this, God bless you !"
"Do not (pall me good," said Bella, pressing her
friend's hand, and mingling her tears with hers ;
" was very,rcry wrong, and deserved your anger,
but only toil me you forgive 'me, and I am con
; tent." " I have nothing to forgive dear friend,
you have returned- " good for evil,-' and " heaped
coals of. lire on m head," and never again will I
refuse to forgive any who have wronged me ;"
this was a le.ssuii that'-she could never forrret. '
And from that hour she and Bella were firm friends;
and never again did the slightest word of auger
pass between them. Such is the power1 of kind
ness and forgiveness. i

Proceeding of the ZYorth Carolina Annual
ITSflhodist Ipiseopal Conference, for 185S
FIFTH DAY. '
j Monday, Dec. 13.
Conference convened Bishops Kauanaugh in the
Chair. Religions exercises conducted by Rev
Joseph II Wheeler. f
Minutes of Saturday's proceeding's were read
and approved. r ; ,
Rev J W Lewis asked and obtained leave of
absence during the remainder of the session.
The special order of the day, the' consideration
of the report of the committee on the Book De
pository, was postponed; for the present, and
The questions presented by Dr Carter to the
Bishop for legal decision and withdrawn for re
vision, on Saturday, were read. -
Df Deems objected jto the questions in their
present form going before the Bishop, as they
were changed in form from those originally pre-
. . . ' " . ,
i ated th declaration thai we was not tried by the
i J
com-tntttee, at l lttsuoro in ioo-l, out by the Con-
fertnec. lie declared his readiness to be tried on
the charges now or at any time. AtPittsboro' he
was not so -fully prepared, having received no
notice of the charges
fully , prepared to meet
legal to try them, as wel
beforehand i but is now
the old charges, if it be
as the new. Dr D. ob-
jected to a decision on the second question, as
such decision would b prejudging a 'fact. em
bodied in the 5th speciSeation of the new charge
of Dr Carter. Thought that Dr C. in withdraw
ing his questions and pxitting them in a different
form to that in which they were at first presented
and argued, did him (Dr D.) wrong, but he was
willing to. forgive him, this time.
At this point, Bishop K. explained that it was
at his suggestion the questions were withdrawn,
in order that they might be put. in such shape as
to cover the laic in the case irstead of the facts.
-Dr.' Carter wished to explain. He took the
position that the articles of settlement at Pitts
boro' had been violated, disturbance to the Church
had resulted; he wished the matter settled ; he
does not wish to disturb the harmony of the
church nor traverse her laws, and is willing to
submit to her decisions. Thought Dr. Deems
provoked the investigation or trial at Pittsboro',
when Dr. Stuart promised to have Smith there,
which he did. Don't know whether Dr. Deems
had been notified or-not. (
Dr. Deems replied by stating emphatically that
he had not been notified of the charges that were
preferred at rittsboro'. This war was opened
upon him about the time that Dr. Early was made
Bishop thinks this at least a remarkable coinci
dence. Dr. Smith had j been speaking of him
(Dr. D.) behind his back and was expected, of
course,; to intend to bring; charges 'before the Con
ference of 1854. When he found that Dr. Smith
was not there, he desired the action on the passage
of his character should be postponed until Dr
Smith could arrive.
Dr Carter thought the difficulty originated
earlier than the election of Bishop Early ; that it
originated on the way to the General Conference
in ISo i, about a certain letter, and called on Rev
Wm.Closs to corroborate him. Mr Closs rose
upon this call and stated that he thought the oc
currence alluded to was a mere part of election
eering, tietics before the General Conference.
Dr Carter resumed. He thought the fact un
deniable' that the terms of settlement had been
violated ; said he did not allege that Dr Smith had
violated them or that Dr Deems had; ho' merely
stated a fact. The reporter does not pretend to
give explanation he gives only declarations and
facts. i
The discussion was rather desultory The
Bishop called Kev P Doub!, D. D., to the Chair and
retired to write out his decision upon the ques
tions referred to him, after an additional amend
ment suggested by himself.
Reports from Warrenton Female College, from
Wayne Female. College arid from Glen Anna Fe
male Seminary,' ,wcrc read and referred to the
Committee on Education. !r
Special order of the day was then resumed and
the report of the Cimmitteo on Book' Depository'
was adopted, -with the following amendments,
viz: in article 1st, strike o'ut "publication," insert
" and Tract." Article 4tbJ amended so as in inafcfi
the surplus over 8 per cent, profits payable to the
Publishing House at Nashville, Tenn. For the
5th article the following substitute was adopted.
"The business shall be conducted by a Book
Agent and a Book Committee of five, who shall

Couiit. The December term of the Court of
Pleas and Quarter Sessions for the County of Craven
commenced on yesterday. We have not been in the
court house, but suppose that everything goes on
very much like county courts in other counties.
Things outside looked very much like scenes whicli
we have witnessed before, for instance ' as we nas-fd
down from Conference, late in the afternoon a Simon
Suggs looking gentleman, from down the river some
where, we suppose, was making a Fourth of '-July
Speech on the side walk. He seemed to be ruunine
over with patriotism for his country and love for his
species. :j-
Fainted. MrsJ. Dr. Taylor, a very estimable ladv
of our City, whose health is rather delicate, fainted
in the gallery of the M. E. Church, during the ses-
lon ot Conference, yesterday afternoon. Consider
able, -confusion ensued for a moment,"' the-people
starting to do what people usually do on such occa
sions, that is, to rushtothe pot toee wiiut the
matter is, the very thing they ought not to do. The
commotion was soon stilled, however, and we are
happy to st.te that the lady fully recovered and
left the Church. ; t
