ferencc held for tills year at "Ehcnc/cr church." the following committee was appointed to apportion a stipulated amount for the preachers table expenses and home cx|>cnses, via: Geo. McKeag, Jesse II. DlvrAty and Jeremiah Weather by. Before the' close of Ike conference they reported as follows; "For each preacher for table < xpon«cs. (134 ; for house expenses. $50." The name of Aaron Garretson appears for the first time on the records as a local preacher, lie being present at a meeting held at Goshen November 38th. Two "Sab- • Schools" were reported kept open ' through the winter of this year, via; . "Maurice River," and "Cape Island they were also reported av being in a very good condition. The annual conference for 1847 was held at Salem. Bis. ; hop Hamline presiding and Iters. Abraham K. Street and Joseph Gaskill were sent to serve the charge. These brethren held a camp meeting at Gosen beginning i September 8d. The managers were ' Iteuben Ludlam, Samuel Townseml, Robert Bay more, J. Nelson Tomlin, Wm. Garrison, Jacob T. Price and Jesse H. Diverty. On December 18th there was three conversions reported from Asbury Sabbath School and from the nature of the report it is fair to conclude that the conversion of Sabbath School scholars was quite a rare thing at that time. Again on March 4th of 1848, {'icing still the same conference year), Rev. A. K. Street reported the conversion of several of the "Sabbath School children." At this quarU/ly conference held at Court House. Mftcli 4th it was declared to he the Judnnhnt of the conference that an effort should be made to build a new Episcopal church at Dennis ville. At the same meeting Enoch Godfrey. Ghorge McClong and John Townsend were appointed a Committee to build a new M. E. church at .Asbury. The following resolution was also passed: "That It is unexpodlent for traveling preachers to raise money to build a fine church at Dennlsrllle. That Is the preachers on this circuit It P. T.

Terrible Ordeal. I instances are not uncommon of men | who have displayed most remarkable j ami fearlessness, and bavf faced ! ' death itself, unt l all danger w..I passed, and then have broken down uti lerly, and been as. cowahllv as children | after. A writer for the New York !

I Under the direction of the New York 1 State Board of Health, eighty .four dlf- 1 fercnt kinds of baking powders, cm- ! bracing all the brands that could lie • found for sale in the State, we: e submit* ! ted to examinotion and analysis by I'rof. 1 C. F. Cha.mii.ki:, a member of the State 1 Board and President of the New York 1 City Board of Health, assisted by Prof, i Edward 0. Love, Uie well-known Unit- 1 : ed Stales Government chemist. The otHlcial report shows that a large ' number of Uie powders examined -were 1 ' found to contain alum or lime ; many of 1 • them to such an' extent as to render 1 1 litem seriously objectionable for use. In 1 the preparation of human food. 1 Alum was found In twcnty-nlne sara- 1 pies. Thla drug is employed in baking I powders to cheapen their cost. The 1 ! presence of lime is attributed to the im- 1 pure cream of tartar of commerce used I in tbrir manufacture. Bitch cream of 1 tartar was also analyzed and found to I contain lime and other impurities; in 1 some samples to the extent] of 93 per I ■ cent, of their entire weight. AH the baking powdefwof the mar1 kct, with the single exception of " Kov1 al " (not including the alum ami pho's. pliate powders, which have not the virlue of even an impure i ream of Urtar). are made Irom tlie adulterated cream of . tartar of commerce, and consequently < contain rlnre to a corresponding extent. < The only baking powder yot found by I ; chemical analysis to be entirely free | from lime' ami absolutely pure Is the t " Royal." Tbis perfect purity results i from the exclusive use of cream of tar- « tar specially refined and prepnfed by ' patent processes which totally remove 1 ihe tartrate of lime and other impurities, t The cost of this chemically pure cream ( of tartar Is much greater than anv oihcr, 7 and on account of this greater "cost is t - usee! in no baking powder but the * "Royal." Prof. Lovg who made the analysis of 1 baking powders for the New York State Board of Health, as well as for tlie Gov- . eminent, says of the purity and whole- ^ someness of the '"RoyaL": "I find the Royal Biking Powder com- • posed of pure and Wholesome ingredi- c ents. It u a cream of tartar-powder of I a high degree of merit, and does not I! contain either alum or phosphates or 1 other Injurious substances. c E. G. LOVE, Pd. D." v It is highly satisfactory to the bouse- c keepers pf this vicinity, where the Roy. t al Baking Powder is In general use, that j the official investigations by the author- t Hies of Massachusetts, New York and r Ohio, the only States that bare thus far > taken action upon this important anb- t jacl, agree in clssainE It as. tbo purest f and most efficient baking powder in the 1 market.

Its carriages are "so .1 wonderfully constructed tliat th-.y proVi.le food, lodging, and entertainment. , My^ train was to leave New York at 9 .. dressed, and proccesleif to the station. At a t-jv minutes past 9 tlie wheels be- . gnu to revolve, and we were off through I the low ImuIs of New Jersey., Tlie fresh r morning Sir had given an edge to my appetite, and in the wake of the attend"i"' sense of the fitness ol things, call a porter.' because he carries your bag- > gage upon the slightest encouragement, I entered the • dining ear,' and wasserv- ' ed wHIi breakfast. The designation ' dining car ' is a misnomer. I would , suggest that llic Pennsylvania Railroad " mla* saloon*'} 1" ' r,"'rcl0,y-' Tlle s wiHi tallies, ranged on either side, with .. an aisle in the middle.

' ic-d lounging apartment. Comfortable • arm chair., inviting divans, and books, newspapers, and periodicals were ready al hand. I lighted my pi|o- and seated ' myself hy one of the wide windows to read tn the intervals between my peeps out on the rapidly passing scenery. It r was without doubt the plcasantcat mornS ing u-veypent on inctals. Beside the i looks, which the library afforded, some busy people were writing al tlie desks, : a party were playing cards, and others - napping. The touch of an eletric bell brings the inevitable |*>rter to your chair, and he will tctrh you from his , buffet anything you may desire to di Ink. . I called for a pint ofJiass and bail it , .erred in a moment, in passing out of i the smoking room 1 observed an aparj mi-lit which had previously escaped my ol-ervalion. and U|Km entering found a must case, though the train was rushing on at a rate of at least fifty miles an hour.
