WESLEYAN METHODIST CONFERENCE. HOME RE-UNION At a meeting of the Conference, held at Bristol, on Thursday, of last week, the Rev. Dr. Stephenson presented the report of the committee appointed to take into consideration the letter of the Archbishop of Canterbury on the subject of Home Re-union." It was decided that the follow- ing letter should be addressed to the Archbishop:- "My Lord Archbisbop, Your letters on the subject of Home Re-union,' addressed to the Rev. Joseph Bush, who was president of the Wesleyan Methodist Conference of 1S88, have been laid before the conference. I regret that, owing to some doubt as to your grace's wish respecting the first letter, this answer has been delayed. The conference has received your letter with the rospect due to your grace and to the venerable body of bishops at whose instance this communication, -vitb others similar to it, was set forth. The con- ference cordially joins with you in praying for the unity of the Church of Christ: that thus may be fulfilled the prayer of the Blessed Saviour Himself, 'that they all may be one, as Thou, Father, art in Me and I in Thee, that the." also may be one in Us.' It appears to the conference that very much might be done by all the Christian communions to promote that unity of spirit without which corporate unity is impossible, and, if possible, would be of little worth. By frankly acknowledging the Christian character of the members of the several Churches, by recognising cordially and practically the statute and work of their ministers, and by abstaining from anything in public teaching and in our private ministries which would injure the influence or destroy the fruit of godly labour beyond our own communions, we might approach much nearer that state of heart and mind on which the Divine Head of the Holy Church Universal would, doubtless, look with approval. In your grace's efforts and those of your right reverend brethren to produce this happier state of feeling the conference would very heartily desire to co-operate, for it is the traditional policy of Methodism to be in its relation to the other Christian Churches, 'The friend of all, the enemy of r.one.' The conference, while deploring needless division, and still more a schismatical spirit, is of opinion that the true unity of the Church of Christ does not necessarily require the corporate union of the several Churches or their acceptance of any one form of polity and govern- ment. And, whilst fully recognising the spirit which animated the committee on re-union appointed by the bishops, the conference is of opinion that the articles presented as a basis for possible re-union (especially the fourth, which relates to the historical episcopate) do not, in the absence of further information and more exact definition, provide a practical ground for the dis- cussion of the subject.—I have the honour to be, my Lord Archbishop, your grace's faithful servailt and brother in Christ, W. F. MOULTON, President of the Wesleyan Methodist Conference."
THE MAGAZINES.
THE MAGAZINES. The Sun is one of the newer magazines which has been fortunate in securing as contributors many well-known writers. Of these Dr. George MacDonald may be reckoned the greatest, and his tale, "There and Back," well sustains his character for narrative, and is pointed by many trenchant and pithy sayings. The other serial tale, "For better, for worse," is also of a superior kind The story of Boadicea is again told in Professor Church's "Pictures from Roman History," under the title of A Struggle for Freedom." "The Good Side" is a pleasant and readable paper, in which, in the form of a conversation between friends, anecdotes are told and proofs given of the good that exists in every- thing and every one, if we do but give ourselves the trouble to look for it. "The Relics of Phidias is the subject of the present paper of the series on Waifs of Time and Gleams from Tudor Fires" forms Part IX. of the Studies from the Romance of History." From the Church Sunday School Institute we have received copies of their excellent magazines The Church Worker," The Church Sunday School Magazine," and The Boy's and Girl's Companion "—all of great value in their several departments as exponents of Church teaching, and as telling what the Church is doing. e., Cassell & Co. send us The Family Magazine replete, with amusement for all kinds of readers the. fiction being wholesome and suitable for family reading, and the facts interesting and instructive. In science, invention and discovery, this serial keeps up to date. From the same firm we acknowledge the receipt of Part 55 of Illustrated Shakspeare," Archdeacon Farrar's "Life of Christ" (Part 7), "Science for All (Part 7), "Canaries and Cage Birds" (Part b), and The World of Wonders (Part 6). We have also received the August numbers of "The Lady's Magazine," "Myra's Journal," "Myra's Threepenny Journal," Weldoii's Ladies' Journal," and "Weldon's Practical Crochet." The first four of these contain many valuable hints for dressmakers, amateur and otherwise, illustrated by examples of the newest fashions in dress and millinery, while in the last purchasers may obtain for the small sum of 2d many new ideas and patterns for garments, &c., in crochet.
LESSONS OF EXPERIENCE.
LESSONS OF EXPERIENCE. Experience is an apt teacher, and there are few so dull or so foolish as not to profit by it,- lessons but every wise and prudent person learns not only by his own experience, but also from that of others, and by careful and judicious observation of the events which occur around him, and of their causes and effects he is enabled to a great extent to shape his own future. By his aptness or readiness to seize all opportunities to improve his condition, and by habits of timely preparation to meet the charges and exigencies of every day life he avoids many disasters aDd trials which would overtake and overwhelm him had be been deficient in these qualities. On the other hand, many a home, which might have been gladdened by life and health and comfort, has been saddened by poverty, illness, and death-in many cases wholly preventable. The wet and changeable weather of the past months makes it incumbent on all persons to exercise pru- dence and wise precaution to counteract the evil effects to their health and comfort which may arise from the unseasonable and variable weather we have htely experienced. There are indeed few that do not feel the system needs recruiting after the trying barometrical changes of the past few P, months. What chaDge of air can do for you in a few months' time—if you are no worse then than jou are now—a course of some good tonic mixture, 0. reliable medicine of established reputation and of proved virdue wil! do now. There are several t mixtures to be had, but none which have been go uniformly successful as GWILYM EVANS' QULNINE HITTERS, It has never been known to fail. Each tablespoonful of this preparation contains a full dose of Quinine, and a suitable quantity of the active principles of the following well known medicine berbs:-Sareaparill,-t, Gentian, Burdock, Saffron, Lavender, and Dandelion, combined in itnost happy proportions, and concentrated in a pure state, as well as being scientifically prepared to be suitable to all ages, at all seasons of the year, .and forming Tonic Bitters positively unequalled. Above all, see that you get the right article ,with the name GWILYM EVANS' QUININE J3ITTE11S on stamp, label, and bottle, without which none are genuine. Imitation ie the sincerest form of flattery, and the wonderful virtue and un- paialleled success of this Great Natural Remedy have caused many to try to imitate them, though without success.

WE CAN ONLY SAY THAT HIS INITIALS…
WE CAN ONLY SAY THAT HIS INITIALS ARE "J. D." When a woman travels ten miles merely to ask a few questions, we may assume that her curiosity is excited. In the year 1883, a story went forth from Lever- stock Green, Kernel Hempstead, Herts, which aroused great interest in all the region thereabout. People came from various directions to inquire into the matter what was alleged to have occurred had to do m-isil; with one man. If the story turned out to be Sr te, some good was likely to come of it; if f.ilse. it. would only put the community more on their gi.ard against all sorts of wild rumours. Among the women who were bound to got at the foundation of it was one from St. Albans and a cook froll1 Langley. How strangely things work out in this queer world. Seven years have passed and the facts are now to become generally public for the first time. It appears ¡hat about the first of January, 1883, an old resident of the place above named was said, and commonly believed to be, in a dying condit ion. For five monllis an able and clever physician had been attending him constantly; no medical man have done more. His ailment was decided to be gout and rheumatism, which are now held to be practically the same malady differently located. Well, this began hack in July, 1882. As time ran along the patient grew worse. The doctor's ability and experience didn't seem to count. The sufferer's ankles, feet, and hands became badly swollen. We all know this must have been a scary symptom, because that the fluids of his body (and the body is nearly all fluid any way), instead of being carried off as they naturally should be, were flowing over their channels and inundating the p uts around them, just as a stream does after heavy The doctor said the danger of this state of things 1-v in the fact, that, when the water reached the heart or lungs, it might end in sudden death. The cause of dropsy is the refusal of the kidneys to carry off the water; so much is plain. But what makes the kidneys strike work ? We now Know the reason of that. It is because they are pmialiy paralysed by a poison in the blood, arising from undigested food in the stomach. In p'ill English a chronic state of indigestion and dyspepsia was responsible for results which now threatened our unknown friend's life. It was reported—and of its truth there isn't a doubt—that his abdomen was blown like a bladder on account of the water which soaked all through his flesh. In conversation few a weeks ago he said, "All my friends now looked on me as a dying man." And reasonably enough too for what chance is there for a man who is gradually drowning in this i%i ?--Foi- that is what it was—drowning, and nothing else in the world. Medicine appeared to be of no use, and the physician suggested that pos- "ihl." the poor man might be benefited if he could go from home and try the baths, mineral waiers, and change of scene and air.—But nobody Relieved in that plan and, in honest truth, it is liar lv likely that the wise physician believed in it hims ir. At all events the idea wasn't put into practice. A bout this time the patient's wife happened to be in I he shop of Mr. Bass, the Hemel Hempstead 4.11, and h:' gave her a little book, a sort of small pamphlet, and said she might like to read it. SII" did read it. and found in it full description of the very conijilainfc that was fast sending her husband to h:s grave, and also the name of what was asserted to be a remedy for it. After some trouble she got him to consent to try it, and sent to (r. Mass fur a bottle. He began, and kept it iij) for four months., taking twenty-six bottles altogether. At the end of that time he was a well, sound man, and is so to day. The whole neighb "urhood was amazed. His recovery, when he had hcell looked upon as no better than a dead man, set tongues wagging all around the country. He now says: "I should not have been here now if it had not been for Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup." Our friend requests its not to publish his full name, but says we may print his initials, which are "J. D." Address ).overstock Green, Hemel Hempstead, Herts. lie will answer letters.
