INDIANA CONFERENCE. Tvreiity-Nlntli Annual Session. 1IBST DAY. Sdllivan, Ind., Wednesday, Sept. 20tb, 8 a. u., I860. The Conference assembled in the base-

. ment of the M. E. Church. Bishop Baker being absent, on motion of Rev. James Hill, Rev. S. T. Gillett was called to the chair. The religious exercises were conducted by C. D. Battelle and W. V. Daniel. The roll was called, and 7. ministers answered to their names. The Conference proceeded to ballott for permanent President from amongst the Presiding Elders. Wm. C. Smith received 36 votes, C. B. Davidson 13, James Hill 1G, and scattering it. A second ballot resulted in the election of Wm. C. Smith. In taking the chair Mr. Smith made a short and appropriate address.. Wm. Mi K. Hester was elected 1st Secretary, .1. J. Stallard 2d, M. M. C. Hobbs 3d. and Chas. Cross, 4th. The luurs for meeting and adjourning were fixed at 8 and 11 J A. M. E. L. Kemp, W. F. Harned, and Albion Fellows were elected Conference Stewards The following lay Stewards appeared, presented their credentials, and were introduced to the Conference : Elisha Evans of'Greenastle District, Wm. F. Browning of Bloomington, Mr. Springer of Vincennes, Dr. Patton of Patoka, and John Hancock of New Albany. The usual committees were appointed on Public Worship, Necessitous Cases, Anniversaries, Missions, Education, Memoirs, Tracts, Sunday Schools, Sanctity of the Sabbath, Bible Cause, Slavery, Temperance, Ministerial Support, Publication of the Minutes, Post Unices, and New York Book Concern. A committee was appointed to collect a statement of the expenses of all the delegates, lay and clerical. The following Treasurers were appointed : Missionary Society. H. S. Talbott. S. S. Society.

A communication was read from Iowa, asking for the return of the parchments of A. II. Shaffer, or if they cannot be found a certificate of that tact. Laid over for future aetioo. A part of ti e names of the superannuated preachers wero read. Their. Thk Amatbtr Concebt. Having enjoyed the pleasure of listening to the rehearsal last evening by the Choir of the Vine street Presbyterian Church, we feel that we can safely promise our citizens a rich treat to-night at the Concert if they choose to avail themselves of it. The selectioj of music is suprb, and the execution, although by amateur, corresponds with the selection. We trust those who have taken this nuttier in charge will be cheered with a full house, and that the chuivh, for which they labor, will reap a substantial benefit from the undertaking. It is not often that our people have the opportunity of listening to a concert of good amateur musicians, and it will be a fair test of the musical taste of our citizens, to observe the extent to which they turn out tonight. The gentlemen aud ladies who compose the choir, have given much of their time ami attention to the improvement of themselves in the "divine art'7 aud for the elevation of musical tasto amongst us. They deserve to be encouraged. We say to all lovers of music, go to the Home Concert to night. For those who are not lovers of music, we quote Lorenzo's address to Jessica, in the " Merchant of Venice." " There's uoaght so stockieh, hard, and full of rage, But music for the time doth chant his nature : The mau that hath no music iu himself, 2s.,ris net moved with conco.-d of sweet souuds, Is lit for treasons, strangfms. and spoils : The motions of his spirit are dull as nhht. And hfs affections dark as Erehu-i : Lai no such man be trnstfd.' Extraordinary Attractions At the Fair To-day. The Programme of the Fair to-day (Thursday) is very attractive, and such as to collect a huge crowd from the City, country, aud abroad. There will be some very fast stock from abroad, and trotting under saddle and in harness. The Grand Tournament, in emulation of the deeds of ancient chivalry, will be enacted, in which brave knights, ans puer el sans reproche, will contend gallantly for a handsome diamond ring with w hich to encircle thij linger of some " Iadye fair." The deeds enacted on " the field of the golden cloth ' will be eclipsed by the valor and gallantry of Hoosier Bnyards, Saladins, and Richards Cieur de Lion. Then there is the competition for the Citizens, Premiums for Buggy aud Draft Horses. Then the solid and the sentimental exercises of the day will be closed by the extravaganza of the Scape Grace Fantastics on foot fancy "beyond compare." The transition from the sublime to the ridiculous will be provocative of cachinnation aud promotive of digestion. Go, all, to the Fair ; see the sights and hear the sounds ; encourage the Association iu its laudable work : rejuvenate yourselves with exercise and amusement; and elevate yourselves by means of knowledge, substantial and tasteful.

THE DISTRICT FAIR. Second Day. The exhibition at the Fair Grounds opened yesterday in good earnest. The entries continued to come in up to the time the book3 were closed, and the forenoon was

occupied with arranging the articles entered, labeling them with their proper classes, &c. The trotting match for the Citizens' purse took place in the afternoon. There were seven horses entered for the prize, but one of these was afterwards withdrawn, leaving six competitors in the field. These were, Russel Bement's grey mare, Fanny Kellogg, Homer Alexander's black horse, Warrick CViizf, J. H. Morgan's Morgan mare, Ellen Douglas, Wm. Quinn's sorrel mare, Sallie St. Clair, John Browning's (Indianapolis) bay horse, Emerald, and J. H. Morgan's bay horse, llootxer Boy. Fanny Kellogg led off in good style, making the mile in three minutes and eight seconds. She was followed by Warrick Chief, who did some very good trotting, but broke badly once or twice, thereby losing some time in the race. He also came out in three minutes and eight seconds. He used his limbs very freely, stepping almost too far, but had he been thoroughly trained, and then held down squarely upon tha track, he would certainly have made very good time. Ellen Douglas, a very fine Morgan mare, wa3 next brought into the ring.and exhibited very fair trotting abilities, but evidently lacked training. She broke very badly in the second quarter and come near stopping, but recov- j ered herself and during the last half-mile acquitted herself very creditably, coming out in exactly the same time with her predecessors 3.08. Sallie St. Clair was the next competitor. She started well, but was evidently a stranger to the turf, being almost a mere filly without training, and her driver found it impossible to hold her to her gait. She used her limbs well, reaching out beautifully before, and gave promise of much ability as a trotter, but did not seem to understand what was required of her, and broke frequently. Her time wa3 three minutes and twenty-two seconds, a failure as regards execution, but with careful and thorough training she is destined to prove very fast. Kmerald, of Indianapolis, was next placed upon the track, and now came the first exhibition of really good trotting. He appeared perfectly at home in the ring, and the manner iu which he went through the course was evidence of the excellent training he had1 received. He trotted his mile in excellent sty le,not once raising or showing any disposition to break his gait, and reached the goal amidst the cheers of the spectators in two minutes and thirty-seven seconds. Hoosier Boy came iu to close the match, and exhibited beautiful trotting capabilities, but appeared flurried and ambitious of doing too much; consequently he raised from his gait once or twice, thereby losing time. He came out iu three minutes and three seconds, thus ranking second, Emerald being first in the result. Aftor the trotting match was over, the ring was opened for the exhibition of trotting and pacing horses under the saddle. Two pacing horses were exhibited, and performed very succcsfully, but as the judges looked more to style than otherwise, no attempt was made to put them to their speed. This exhibition closed the day's programme. To-day'a exercices will open with the exhibition of Horses of all grades, and the Citizen's Premiums for the best buggy horse, mare or gelding, and the best pair of draught horses, will be awarded. In the afternoon the Grand Tournament comes olf, with the exercises in fast riding and fantastic display. This will be one of the great attractions of the Fair, and the crowd to see it will probably be very large. The Methodist Conference. In this issue we commence the publiea tion of the proceedings of the Indiana Conference. This body represents the Southwestern part of the State. The membership of the Methodist Church within its bounds is near thirty thousand. The numbers attendant in their churches of course is much greater. The proceedings of a body representing so large and respectable a portion of the community can but be looked to with interest. Monday and Tuesday of the present week were spent chiefly in assigning the delegates their temporary homes, mutual congratulations, and examinations of the younger ministers in their prescribed studies. On Monday evening an able sermon was preached by Rev. William S. Carter of Pulnamville. The opening sermon which was one of great power and eloquence was preached by Rev. Wm. C. Smith of Indianapolis, on Tuesday evening. His discourse was addressed to ministers, and was founded on Ps. cxivi, 6th v.: " He that goeth forth aud weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him." The Methodist Church at Sullivan, in which the Conference holds its session, is large and highly creditable to the taste and liberality of the citizens of that prosperous town. The people seem to feel much interest in the proceedings. We Lope th? session may be a pleasant one, fraught with good to all attendant on this ecclesiastical convocation. One of the Enquirer's seven-by-nines "catches it'' in that paper. Grampee W. Hardin is the lucky mau. Willard is ''down on him like a hawk on a June bug." They are both Democrats, so it's "none of our funeral.''

DIED, In this place on the 20th instant, Virginia, infant daughter of Franklin D. and Minebva Botle, aged 1C months. "SufTer little children to ceme nnto me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of Heaven."
