I In 1360 the Conference nuetnbled again in Kingston, under the Presidency of the late Dr. Stimson. The moat remarkable feature of this I Conference was the consideration of the Univer- .

It is more than likely that the King- ` ston Conference of 1868 will be compeiled to re-open the question of the rights nod claims of l colleges, as likely to he ntfected by the recent '(lec|arnliun of the Ontario Government.

After this incident the siege of Magdala was resumed, and, to the intense gratica- tion of the besieging force, one round shot from Theodorus` own gun was sent bobbing along the ground sufficiently near him and his small party to induce them to retreat into Mugdala and desist from the at tempt they had hitherto been making to carry a gun up there. After this the ring ceased altogether on the part of the besieged and became very lunguid on the part of the besiegers. I feel that as I patriot, perhaps, the less I say of this siege the better. For fully half an hour the storming party remained, most of them huddled helplessly in the path, and ifltlajor Cooper, who commanded them, had not found it way into the place over the stockade near the gate, there might have been a heavy loss of life.

From the plalnness of his dress the body was not at rs: reeogllsed, but as soon as it was identied, and on the proech of Sir Robert Napier, drawn forth into the principal pathway, an involuntary cheer burst forth from the soldiers around. Bach a cheer over the body of a fallen foe rather jarred upon the nerves, but still it was pardonalsle enough, for at bottom it meant, not esaltauea over the death of en enemy, but delight at the 7 discovery beyond all doubt that the last object of s tedious osmpelgn hsd been accomplished, and that there was now nothing to prevent theforu o from turning its face home in triumph.

It was probably in this humble building where Asbury preached in 1311, that the first of the Kingston Conferences was held in 1830, about eight years before, the passing of the act by which the village became an incorporated town. The devoted Wm. Case presided st the Kingston Conference of 1830, and James Richardson won the secretary. Bishop Bedding was present, and at the request of the Conference conducted the Sabbath services, ordaining the elders and deacon: who had been elected to those ofoaa. Among the elders then set. apart we find the names 01 Egerton Ryerson and Anson Green, both of them retaining the affectionate esteem of their brethren. Among the dencons, there stands the name of Ephraim Evans, who, Af- ter so many years, and after `nearly ten yesrs of active and useful service on the Pacic coast, is this year again with his brethren, representing the important mission eld of British Colum- bin. .,.. nu Luau} JUDITH, uuu RILEY Tl service It bxet , .., ;;x`:IULl uut nu irorn rue region of country where Meihodism in Canada achieved its rs: victories over ignorance and wickedness, not Wllllout violent oppouiiion.
