T CHARLES NORDHOFF I. It was tbe last day of the Indiana Conference. All business was dispatched, and the assembled preachers waited only for that last and most important announcement which should decide for each the soene of his next je*r s laDors. in oar Jletnodist communion the bishop who preaides over the annual meeting called the 'Conference' wields the appointing power. His word, in this matter, ha* been wisely made supreme; and though, with us degenerating Methodists of the Eaat, the bodj of presiding elders prompts the wisdom of their superior, while the larger and wealthier congregations go one step farther and ask priTately beforehand for the man. of their choice, in the generous W eat they stick to the primitiTe mode, trusting to the experience of iao unuup mm ao saan su at tuo uiou w tae churches that neither, may be wronged.. Nor, let it be said here to the honor of those venerable men, who hare now for more than half a century exercised this somewhat arbitrary power, has there ofteu been found just cause of complaint. The list of appointments is prepared during the session of Conference, and is kept strictly secret; so that no one know, nor ccruld form even a -probable guess at his fate. The murmur of voicett was therefore hushed, and all listened hs with one ear when the bishop rose to solve their riddles for them. One by one the willing servants bowed tbeir accepting heads, with a sigh of relief or sorrow. and lost their general cariosity in their particular interest. Presently was read oat: thottover Statu).*?Pacl Cliftoh." Whereat a few of the elder brethren looked over toward the young man so named, scrutinizing him with critical eyes, as though measuring his fitness for this 'Shottover btation;" while others, the younger preachers, looked up with eyes in which pity for him waa mingled wish ill-concealed joy at their own escapc. T- l % ? .. rur mey were nara cases ai ?noiiover Statioo. The church wis small and weak; the 'ouifiders' a turbulent set, irreverent to the last degree, exceedingly sharp at discovering the preacher a weak points, and very ready to take advantage of them. A very stronghold of Satan was Shottover, where the poor minister need, hope for but small pay and less respect, and might think himself lucky if he got off with whole bones. Once or twice, indeed, in years past, they had driven the newly-appointed man away by force of their brawny arms and leathery lungs; and once, taking an exceeding dislike to a young fellow just trom college, and serving here his first year, (and " uu, ?s mcjr cumpiitioea, "Know everymmg, ) they had combined together and literally starved him out. Therefore Shottover was a place to be avoided by all mean*: a plague-spot which had driven several tender-hearted men into other Conference*; and to which now for some years the youngest member was, by general agreement of the bishop with his subordinates, sent to make trial of his budding powers?jast as boys who have run away from home to sea are, on their first voyage, placed in charge of the eky-c-ail* and royal studding-sail, to loose and furl them. Whereby at least those whose ro...?...... i:_. k..? .k:. a 1 ? juauvo nw wui ratu-uocp, nuu WUU wore 1U* deed called, but not chosen, grow to hate the glorious sea-life in the precise proportion as they scrape the skin off their tender shins, and are glad, at the first port, to run away home agaiu. Which I take to be a fine example of Mr. Darwin's recently advanced theory of " Natural Selection." Paul Clifton, who sat in pleaded unconsciousbs#s a little on one side of the room, (like a young bear, all hi* sorrows before hira,) was a recant acquisition to the Conference. He had graduated with honor two years before at a tneoiogical institute in the East; had preached experimentally, and verjr acceptably, on various occasions, and to different citj and country congregations; had 14 taken a run over to Europe," and was now counted a promising Joung man, whom any Conference would be glad to receive; when |o ! to the surprise and disappointment of his friends, he set his face Westward, and ewhewing the flesh-pota of V? V...L. X 1 J? J ? ** vw x vi m, wauuuiru tuiu liiO UC9' ert of Indiana. Another John Baptist, said Miss Thomasina l>obbs, a romantic young lady, who was shrewdly suspected of designs upon the reverend Paul s heart?though very unlike John Baptist indeed, thought the rough Ho >s. ier preachers when they saw him pull off his neady-fitting kid gloves on oeming into Conference room, and spread an immaculate pockSt-handkerchief on the dirty floor whereon to neel at prayers. c & m*ri ? j ? i ? ?. , xn? net ia. poaag ^imon ana oeen orea id r ease, and bad the outride of a gentleman, which U a disadvantage sometimes: particularly if the iaside does not correspond, lie had young man's natural longing to go out into the world, and ?ee a little of the rough side of it?to try his own wings, which he had now for some years been impatiently fluttering on the edge of the paternal nest. Add to this the boneet enthusiasm of the yeung fellow wh* believes himself called to show tne heavenly road (not as a finger-post, as Jean Paulsug* 1 t * - ? - gests, wmcn oniy points me way, but does not move iiseif > And this tempered, perhaps, by the modest thoaght that it would be easier for him. a young and inexperienced man, to lead rough Hoosiers up this steep and narrow path than the more refined intellectual congregations at the East?a little mistake I have known wiser men than the Rev. Paul to m&ke ?as though the wildest norses did not need the best drivers. Pat these together, and you * W ?? __ ? m rwro, 1 suppose, nearly ine mixture 01 motives which brought bim to avoid the soft ease of a "first-class city appointment."'nnd join himself to this unknown future of the book-woods. The bishop regarded fiim with mild pit j aa he read him hia fate. A set custom could not be violated on his account; nor, indeed, did the enerable man believe that this trial had beat be spared the young preacher. When the last byrna was sung, and the prayer and benediction had dismissed the members to their home*, he walked over to where Clifton sat, and shakind his hand nnoooragingly, said: " Rjcp up your spirit*, bro her Panl! the ?wrtrrt nt th? T-irH la an vour lid*?'th? iwnrH of the Lord and of Gideon.1" ? " Yea, tm," remarked an old fellow who overheard these word*; '*1 wish there was a lit tie more tiideon though," while a hard-featured circuit-rider growled to himself; "'Taint right, hardly, I've a mind to change places with him; he looks like good young fellow." " You leave him alone, interrupted the old Father Sawyer; "probably the bishop knows what he's about. Let the young man take his chance. The Lord will provide.* "I don't believe the Lord knows anything about Shottover," retorted the eirouit-rider, who had enough of Qideon about him, at any rate; and who probably would have rather enjoyed a tussle with that devil of mischief, who was said to be so strongly entrenched in Paul Clifton's new station. In which regard be differed much from Paul, ? * a - a IJ II ?

Its low roof; its mud-bespattered walls, on<*e painted a dirty white; its narrow doorway, making no allowance for sinners in crinoline; its ragged wagon shed, like Jack Straw's house, neither wind tight nor water tifcht. and through whose board-sides several generatione of idle horses had gnawed sundry holes, which gave their successors occasional privileged squints into a cool meadow beyond, thus pointing a Sunday lesson, even to obstinate horse tlesh. by this pleasant vision of pleasant grass fields; and this flanked by an appaling architectural novelty?a bell-tower, or embryo steeple, standing on its own base, and giving the impression to an unfamiliar eye that it had been lifted down from its proper place on the roof by some ligbt-handed giant? all this does not promise well to a man who holds his faith by the ties of mere use and comfort. Within. th? narrow aisles are covered with a fine coating of rich Indiana mud. The hard, straight-baokad, uncushioned pews afford no rest to the wicked; nor, indeed, to the pious either, unless, as is sometimes the case, piety and adipose tissue are found in the same body. The preaching-stand has. at least, the merit of consistency, being neither clcaner nor more ornamental than the rest of the church. Rain-stained windows, bare, whitewashed, and partly 1 peeled' walls, white whf>r? nn itiina r\f tnKaeen ti?tn)r?n rait. ing place of some saint who chews the cud of Virgioia content beneath the shadow of the preacher's long arms; and a huge store, whose pipes stretch like raat arms along the ceiling un both sides, as though preparing to shed a ferrid blessing on the assemblage; truly here was found cause sufficient for a series of shocks to Christians of weak faith or sensitire nerves.

Gents of the Editorial Corpse of Vanity Fair:?Since I last rit you I've met with immense success a showin my show in varis pl&cis, particlj at Detroit.

But up steps a olerk A axes me hadn't I better put my watch in the safe. ' Sir," sez I, "thatwatch oost sixteen dollars! Yes, sir, every dollar of it' You can t cum it over me, my boy! Not at all, sir." I know'd what the clerk wanted lie wanted that watch himself. He wanted to make believe as tho he lockt it up in the safe, then he would set the houa? a fire and pretend as tho the watch was destroyed with the other property! But ho caught a Tomartea when he got hold of me. From Detroit I go >Vest'ard hoe. On the cars was a he-lookin female, with a green cotton umbreller in one band and a handful of reform tracks in the other. She sed every woman should hare a Spear. Tbem as didn't demand their Spears, didn't know what was good for them "What is my spear?" she axed, addresain the peple in the cars. "Is it to stay to home A darn stockins <fc be the ser-lave of a domineerin man? Or is it my spear to vote ? BpejK <x snow mvselt tre ekul ot man f Is there m sister in these keers that has her nroptr Spear ?"

" I har no objecshuns to your jroin into the Spear bianiss," sex I, 'but you 11 please rein> mber I ain't a pickeril. Don't Spear me agin, if you please." She sot down. At Ann Arbor, bein seized with a sudden feintness, I called for a drop of suthin to drink. As I was stirrin the beverage up. a pale-faced man in gild spectacles laid his hand upon my shoulder, A sed, "Look not upon the wine when it is red !" Be* I, "This ain't wine. This is Old Ryo." "ir stiugrth likt a Adder and bitketk hitt a Sarpentr" sed the man. "I guess not," sed I, "when you pu* mignr in it. That's the way I allers take mine." "Hav you sons grown up, sir?" the man axed.

"I guess we can both on us git along without your assistance, Sir," I observed, as he was ab >ut to open his mouth agin. "This is a cold world," said the man. "That's so. But jou'll git into a warmer one by and by, if you don't in'md your own bianiss better."
