Sa 7. j | The Annnal Conference for 18GG w«f I held at Camden, beginning March 21, i when Ilisliop 8eott returned the Rev. S. j Townacnd to Iho charge for the third time. Early tfiie year I bore were two j ; children's elaaacs formed ; one at Den- ; nisvilie, and the other at (ioehc'n. l)r. ; A. Young was the leader al Goahcn. At ] | the first quarterly conference for this j 1 year, held at" Dennlsvllle, May 10IC, a i ' centenary commiltcu was appointed 1 , composed of the following persons, via.: ! Rev. Socrates Townsend, Rev. William i 0 A. Brooks (then a supcramtate), Jesse ' * II. Diverty, Sumner Slarcy anil J. Milton '* Towneind. There was a camp meeting. 1 licld this year on the uhl fair grounda, ' ftginning August 30th. The camp ' meetings held in 1804, J«5 and 'Ofi exert- : Cd a wonderful influence all over the ' county, ami even extended to adjoining 1 counties. Large numbers .wore 'con- 1 " verted at each of these meeting*, and 1 j many members of the different churches ' and even of different denominations pro- i fissod sanctiflcnlion. So intense was the ' 1 religious interest that the Rev. George 1 Hughes caught the inspiration and wrote ' a book entitled " Cape May on Fire." ' The managers of the camp meeting for 1 » 1868 were Charles York, J. Milton Town- 1 send. Jesse II. Diverty. James Hinder- ' son, Joseph E. Alien J. Nelson Toiuliu, 1 Lo!t Corn well, U bl. P. Thompson, ' Shamgsr Hewitt anil Tliotnas Hay re. At 1 , the accooil quarterly conferenee. held at ' t Hie camp grounds. Joseph K. Wilson. 1 , now of Cape May. was licenanl to j t 1 preach, a position be hen acceptably su-. j same meeting the following la-lies were ' 1 _ apnointcd manager* of Hie •• liailiara 1 1 Heck" society of Cape May circuit, ti/.t 1 1 . Sirs. Socrates Townsend, Mrs. Jesse li. J" - Diverty, Mrs. Hobt. P. Thomp-on and « Mrs. Thomas Sayre. ' was an all day meeting "held at Goshen. 1 called a centenary meeting. Several 1 ministers from the adjoining charges * were present and spoke during the day. ' bringing out many interesting re-minis- 1 , censes of early Mct)io<lism. While we 1 , litem In detail from memory, and like ' many other things of interest to the ' , present generation, thrre is no record to ' refer to. No hing of special interest oe- 1 curred during the balance ot lids confer- 1 cncc year, when tlic Rev. Hot-rates > Townsend closed up a three year's pas •' to rate of wonderful success. ' The next annual conference was held f . at Kcyport, commencing March W. 1807. c Prom this conference Bishop James sent Rev. Samuel Chattin to the charge. Rev. 0 Aaron E. Ballard, P. E. There was a >' camp mrcttng in progress at the old ' ground near Scaville station on the 31st 5 of July, when the secon 1 quarterly con- •' ference was held. This camp meeting ' committee came out wiUia-hsfffScc on " ' liand of 830. afterpajadg alk'cipcnaes. 1 On November SwrTat a busincaal meeting held at Dyer's Creek, it was devmuil expedient to build a new church nf - North Dennis, and the following breth- " charge of the enterprise : Rev. S. C. Chattin, Jesse II. Dlvorty, Charles P. " Robort and Alcxandor'Townsend. At the close of the year the official " board asked for tlic return of. Rev. H. C. f Chattin. Conseqncntly BishopScott, win s • presided over the conference, hekl at ( LambertviUo, commencing Marc-.li 18th, " 1888, returned him for anollicr year. * There was an arrangement made on " April 4th to hold a " Harvest Home "on 1 r the 4th of July in the interest* of the 1 parsonage, and a committee of five per- r sons were appointed to carry It through. c On Juno 87th. this committee, through v its chairman, Rov. 8. C. Chattin, re- ' ported progress. Whether the " Har- ' vest Home " was evor lield or not does 1 not appear. A motion to hold a camp ' meeting was lost. On December 86th, I J. Milton Townacnd was recommended ' to the annua] conference as a suitable ' person to receiv deacon's orders. At J the annual conference hold at MlUvillc, beginning March 17th, 1809, Bishop ' Clark sent the Rov. B. C. Ltppincott on 1 the charge. There was a camp meeting 1 held this year In the grove of Rev. K. Y. ' Hwaln, west of the residence of the late ' Rev. J. M. Townsend. One of the notable events of this meeting was an eclipse of the sun that drew the atten- J Hon of the entire camp., The conference , this year (1870) was held at Long Branch < commencing March 28. Front, this con1 ference Bishop Blmpson retHfifd Rev. B. C. Llpplncotl for another year. On December t7lb, James E. Diverty was - licensed as a local pfeschcr. Al the an- ' nual conference held at Salem, com- ) mencing March 13th, 1871, Dcnnlavillc wm detached from the circuit and became a charge by itself. After this conference Rev. William E. Prrry came on Ihe district as P. E. and Rev. William L Marge rum came on the charge aa preach ~ cr. At the first quarterly conference ) Dr. A. Young wa* elected recording steward. Al the second quarterly oon- , ference, held at Asbury July 1st, a comp mittee to confer with a similar commit- " toe from Den nisvilie charge in relation to *• sale of parsonage property. Sbamgar in Hewitt and JU Nelson Tomlln were the , committee. The annual conference for 167! was held at Trenton, bog\nnlng February 88, B Bishop Janes presiding. At thia con ference Asbury was deutched from the circuit and became a charge by itself. The old Oape May circuit had now been trimmed so many times that It was no longer recognizable and consequently " had (o seek for a new name— Goshen jn snd Dyer's Creek charge. To thia old - charge with a new name the Rev. GidP" conF. Bishop was sent by Bishop Jtmea ,l" lie was returned for another year by m Bishop Scott from tha conference held at Bridgrinn, commencing March 13th, L 1878. Thia year tlx Qoaben Salibath. school had its flrst Christmas tree. Rell. rival aerviocs were held at both appoint menu, resulting in the conversion of

quite a number. The annual confcrI'ence for 1874 was held in Camden, be-j , j ginning March 18th. From thia confer- j _ I'cbce Bishop Scott returned ltcv,, G. P. I Bishop for the third year. There was, j I ! during the winter of this year, an cxten- 1 , sivo revival held at Oris hen, resulting in j _ j the conversion of about forty person*. I ! When Pastor Bishop left for conference : , j in March it was still going on. Rev. P. ! , M. Randolph, of Court House, conduct- j , cd it during Hie season of conference, [ I I and when the Rev.

E. church purchased i ' the house anil lot owned by David High i . for a parsonage at a cost of t?00, *100 | of which had been donated by the Mite , society. From tire conference helii at Holly, beginning XIa-ch 89th, 1870. . WUcy returned tuc Rev. EltG-f- . ford for another conference year, and ; in 1877 Bishop Peck returned him for I ihe third time.

In tlic root ' both powers are one. Our capabilities 1 are proportioned tu our capacity; for , draw upon for out-giving. Rut while our reliabilities are proportioned t0 OR' capacity, it docs not follow that our I producing will show itself in ihe- dlrec- [ lion of our receiving. What we liavo I most capacity for, wc may be least we may have least capacity for. The : scientist sometimes gathers his best • strength from reading poetry, the poet from reading science. To one who has , a work to do, a most serious mistake 1 is in confusing his capacity with bis I capabilities. To be fond of poetry is no sign ot a sills- inn lo write poetry. One . may lie poetical in his tastes without being a poet, scientific without being > a scientist, scholarly without being a - scholar, artistic without br ing an artist. [ But he who fills Ilia heart with the truths of the poets may work them out in " heroic deeds; he who fills his mind with I the laws of scic ice may work them out • in the mechanic artsjlic who famillarizos I himself with the achievements of scholar. ship may work out the application ol ' tlic scholar)« methods to the cvcry-ilay s business of life— to exactness and t thoroughness.

Thfaf makes a very simple thing of It. The question - becomes merely this: Shall our carpets ,t last or thill we"'- Now it stands to rea,4 son that carpets shall not regulate this It matter. Are carpets made for houses or ,[ houses for carpets? If the latter, then let us put up small but rastefulbulldtngs, carpet ihem richly, shut them tip carej, fully, snd build other houses dose by j. for dwelling houses. Wc' could step in .. occasionally to see the carpets, and u. could take our friends in. For our „ dwelling houses we could have straw )r mattings or carpets which will bear fading, or stained wooden floors or wood l„ carpels, with rugs here and there, as . foot comforis ; s rag, you know is easy to cover or to move. k U Worth Knowing.
