Nomination Notes. Inadvertently, we announced in Tue Darty Examiner of yesterday that Messrs. Malcolm McDonald and George Moar were nominated as the Opposition candidates for Georgetown. This was an error. The Patriot had kept the names of these gentle- men before the public as candidates of the Opposition fos but it was only to deceive the people. The gentlemen named sense to want to enter the Legislature in the place of Hon, Mr. Gorlon and Hon Mr. McDonald. The opposition offered by Mr. John Lavers is purely factious, and he will

NEW BRUNSWICK AND PRINCE EDWARD
ISLAND CONFERENCE.
(Spe cial Corre spore 1Uce of the Exvain iner. ) SACKVILLE, June 18. EVENING SESSION. Sabbath W. Heard,
This evening an interesting School gathering took place. Esq., occupied the chair.
Prayer was made by Rev. H. Daniels.
Rev. S. H. Rice read the report.
Speeches were given by J. E. Irvine, St. John; George L. Holyoke, Woodstock; J.
Henry, Charlottetown; W. H. Thorne, St. John, and Rev. W. H. Spargo.
There was a large number present.
After a collection had been taken up the Rev. S. H. Rice pronounced the Benedic- tion, and the meeting closed.
FOURTH DAY—SATURDAY MORNING-- NAL MEETING.
This morning 150 or 200 people came over from Amherst, where the Nova Scotia Conference was assembled, and spent the day in a fraternal gathering.
On motion of Dr. Stewart, Rev. J. Shen- ton was placed in the chair.
On the platform were Rev. C. Jost, Pre- sident of the Nova Scotia Conference, and Rev. R. Wilson, Secretary of the N. B. and P. E. 1. Conference.
On motion, Rev. A. D. Morton was ap- pointed Secretary.
After singing **‘ Take my life and let it be,” the Revs. A. W. Nicholson and E. Evans led in prayer.
The Chairman spoke a few words of wel- coine,
it was resolved to discuss the Sustenta-
FRATER-
tion Fund. Rey. C. Jost spoke of the great spiritual
prosperity of the last year in their congre- gation. | Over 1,100 souls had been added to their number. An increase of more than $1,000 was reported in the missionary in- come, :
Rev. J. Shenton also reported a prosper- ous year in the N. B. and P. E. I. Con- ference.
Rey. C. Lockhart asked whether the Sustentation Fund should be for the entire Church or for each Conference.
Rev. H. Daniel thought that we should aiin to have united action.
Dr. Lathern spoke of what had been done in the Nova Scotia Conference during the last year in the way of sustentation. He said that about 51 per cent. of our pre- sent missionary income went towards domestic missions, 33 per cent. towards foreign, and about 16 per cent. to working expenses. He advocated the making of grants for four years, and thought that each Conference should have a fund of its own.
Rey. A. W. Nicholson tabled a resolution advocating that the Home and the Foreign Missions should be separated, which Rev. J. Read seconded.
Rev. S. F. Huestis said that the Mission- ary Society was not opposed to the forma- tion of a Sustentation Fund. He was op- posed to the re-formation of the Home Mission Society.
Rev. J. Read claimed that one fund helped the other. Our ministers are not worse off than the ministers of other Churches, but our people ought to do more. Each Conference ought to sustain its own domestic missions.
Aiter some explanations by Rev. A. W. Nicholson and J. Read, J. E. Irvine, Esq., thought we should have two funds. Dr. Lathern proposed some resolutions to the effect that the grants should be made for four years. The Rev. Thos. Angwin thought that people ought to have the op- portunity of saying to what object they wished their gifts applied. Rev. R. Wil- son thought that some pecple would give to a Home Mission Fund, aid others to a Foreign. Rev. C. H. Paisiey, A. M., spoke in the same strain. He called atten- tion to the large increase in working ex- F. W. Smith ad- funds. W.
perses since L874. Rev.
vyoeated the formation of two
leard, Esq., moved a resolution in favor of separating the two funds. J. A. White, Esq., seconded the above. J. W. Colwill,
Esq., was glad the conversation had taken place, as it had cleared up many misconcep- tions. Rev. E. Evans corrected some statements that had been made, and said we must do more for our missions, Rey. J. R. Narraway, A. M., said that an increase of members did not always mean an in- crease of giving power. He urged that we should go back to our local preacher sys- tem. Rey. S. H. Rice made some remarks. Rev. W. H. Heartz said that we should Missions, but we should do more for our Home Missions. He tabled a resolution in favor of having conferential action on this matter. Rey. James Taylor thought we should ask for a certain amount as a grant for four years, Rev. W. C. Brown thought that no ‘mini- ster should receive less than $750. He be- | lieved that we ought to have two funds, a Foteign Missionary Fund and a Sustentn-
Ri a Ras eames rg are
tion Fund. He moved that we take a vote on this matter. Dr. Allison, Superintend- ent of Edueation for N. S., advocated the establishment of the Sustentation Fund ona broad liberal basis. A unanimous vote in favor of having a Sustentation Fund was taken. On motion of Dr. Lath- ern a committee was appointed to whoin were handed all the resolutions for the pur- pose of formulating some resolution that mi¢ht be acceptable to the Conference. The Conference then adjourned for dinnre. The Sackville people appeared to exceed themselves in their well known hospitality. AFTERNOON SESSION.
After singing, Dr. Lathern Jed in prayer. Rev. A. W. Nicholson reported that the committee had been able to agree only on one point, viz., that there should be a sub- stentation fund.
On motion of Dr. Lathern the matter was laid over for further consideration with the annual conferences.
MISSIONARY MATTERS.
On motion of Rev. W. H. Heartz a _re- solution declaring that eastern Methodism was inadequately represented on the General Missionary Board,
Dr. Allison explained that this inadequate representation was the result of the Union, and would doubtless be rectified by the next General Conference. Rev. E. Evans hoped the resolution would be carried. Rev. 8. F. Huestis was favorable to its passing. Resolution carried unanimously. .On motion of J. E. Irvine, Esq., the further consideration of missionary matiers was referred to the annual conferences.
PUBLISHING INTERESTS.
Rey. S. F. Huestis was called to the platform. He made quite a lengthy state- ment, and gave a financial statement. Dr. Lathern read some lengthy resolutions passed by the Book Room Committee. The book steward claimed that we had not our full share of profits of Toronto publications. He said the habilities of the establishment were $24,579, and the assets $23,903, the deficit $676. Rev. A. W. Nicholson thought that our relations to the Toronto Book Room were purely a matter of business. Rev. H. Daniel moved that a vote of thanks be accorded Messrs. Huestis and Smith, which was passed. Those gentlemen made suitable acknowledgments thereof.
EXAMINATION OF PROBATIONERS AND CAN- DIDATES.
Dr. Lathern spoke im favor of giving some discretionary power in this matter te annual conferences and moved a resolution to this effect. Dr. Williams spoke against any such discretionary powers being vested in annual cenferences. We must take this country by the head if we wish to take it by the heart. Rev. C. H. Paisley, A. M., seconded Dr. Lathern’s resolution and spoke in favor of it. Rev. J. Read thought that we ought to look to our own church for a supply of candidates. He thought that this was not the time to lower but rather to elevate the standards. Dr. Stewart thought we should look to our own church for a supply of ministers. Do we sufticfent- ly remember to pray that the Lord of the vineyard would send forth laborers into the field. Rev. G. O. Huestis thought that we should have an educated ministry—but hoped that we would not go too far in educational matters.
Rey. J. C. Berrie acknowledged that Englishmen were not the best kind of men for our work, but claimed that the work could not have been carried on without them. Rev. James Strothard was afraid that we might put the standard too high. Rev. C. Jost, M. A., said that our prelim- inary examinations were rather too low than too high. He asserted that the Superin- tendents were often to blame when the young men did not pass their examinations. Dr. Allison objected to the resolution on general principles. As superintendent of education he could say that it was this dis- cretionary power which he dreaded. The tev. Thomas Marshall made some explan- atory remarks. Rev. A. D. Morton said his views on the matter had undergone : complete change. He did not attach as much stress as formerly to education. Rev. Joseph Gaetz said that they had lost a most distinguished man for want of this discretionary power. Dr. Lathern closed the discussion with a few words. The motion was lost, 55 voting for it and 60 against it.
On motion of Rev. 8. F. Huestis, thanks were voted to the N. B. and P. E. I. Con- ference and to the friends at Sackville for their entertainment.
The m‘nutes were read and approved.
After singing ‘‘Blest be the tie that binds,” the Rev. J. V. Jost pronounced the Benediction.
OPEN AIR MEETING.
An open air meeting was held on Satur- day afternoon in front of the Church. It was conducted by Rev. J. C. Berrie.
Rev. H. R. Baker led in prayer.
Mr. Berrie gave a suitable address.
Two or three prayers were offered, and then the congregation adjourned to the Church, where a most interesting and de- lightful meeting was held. Six or seven penitents were seeking mercy.
The meeting broke up about 7 o'clock.
St. Peter's Boys’ School.
