Baltimore .qnnual Conference Of The .Uethodist
E. Church. The annual Conference of this
large and respectable body of Christians, will
commence It's session in the Church on Eutaw
St., this morning, at 10 O'Clock. Bishop He'd
ding is expected to preside. Bishops Waugh
and James will also be in attendance. The ses-
sion promises to be one of great Importance,
not only to the Church itself, but to the public
generally. We renew the suggestion offered
by US few days since, that if the Conference,
in its wisdom, should determine to sit with
closed doors, that their secretaries be instructed
to furnish the morning papers with such an alb
stractof their proceedings as would be Of mpor-
tance to the public.


Large Funeral. The funeral of the late
Judge Kell, was attended yesterday morning
by large number of our citizens, together
with the members of the bar, besides tile i'm
mediate friends and relatives Of the family
The Independent Light Dragons, Col. Boul-
din, also paradcd to pay the last tribute Of re-
spect to the memory of the deceased. The
funeral took place from his lae residence on
the corner of East Baltimore and Exeter SITS .,
and his remains were deposited in the private
burying ground, at his country residence on
the Phladel phia Road. 1t was one of the
largest funerals we have had in our city for
long time.


Burglary. The store of Messrs. Springer &
Nantz, on the corner Of Pratt and Concord
streets, was entered by burglars on Monday
night, and large quantity of goods carried off
and destroyed. An entrance was obtained by
forcing open back door with an iron crow
bar. The rogues appear to have had a regular
feast before they left the premises, having
made up fire in the stove, smoked cigars. and
drank brandy toddy out of half gallon mea-
sure ad Hbit,rm. When they decamped they
carried with them two quarter boxes of cigars,
several boxes of tea about dozen lumps of
afsugar, large quantity of liquor, besides
other articles. We also learn that they bored
an auger hole in the pipe of brandy, worth a.
bout $500, and permitted the liquor to run out
on the floor, showing that they were not only
daring thieves, but malicious, consummate
scoundrels. We hope that the villains may be
discovered and arrested


Disgracetul. On Monday evening, after the
alarm of fire at the corner of Lexington and
Eutaw streets, when the Watchman Fire Com
pany were returning home, and when near the
corner of Lombard and Sharp streets, an at
tack was made upon the company by some
persons, and number of bricks and missiles
thrown. Several of the members of the
Watchman were struck, one of whom had his
eye cut very badly, and officer Chisholm who
came up, was struck on the side of the neck
with brick, causing painful bruse. None
of the parties were arrested, which is much to
be regretted, as such conduct is deserving of
the severest condemnation.


Alarm of Fire. The alarm of fire about
o'clock yesterday afternoon was caused by the
burning off chimney in Pratt street, a few
doors from Exeter The roof of the dwelling
caught, but it was extinguished before it did
any material damage. Our fremen were
promptly on the spot but their services were
not needed.


Fire. Yesterday afternoon about o'clock.
fire was discovered in two story brick
dwelling, situate in ST. Mary's near Ross st.
The adjoining two story brick dwelling also
caught, and the roofs and upper stories of both
houses were burned considerably, before our
firemen, who were promptly present to render
assistance, could succeed in subduing the
flames; They were occupied by colored fami
lies, who saved their furniture with but trifling
injury. We could not learn how the fire orig
mated The loss is not very large. They
belonged to Messrs. Hays s. McKim.
