Dr. Young ascended the Plattorm amid loud applause, and was welcom ed to oflice by his predecessor. Dr. Young, in honor that had been placed upon him, all the more on account of the spon- ence. He said that to be elected in the old historic city of Kingston was most pleasing, as he had been born a few miles from it, educated within her hounds, his parents having attended the conference church for some years, His memories went fondly back to the old Pittsburg circuit, where he was borg, converted, and called to the Christian ministry, Continuing, the president spoke very respectfully of his old masters in Johnson street school, and 'also of some of the "rules of order," used to govern there, Evidently the "cane" was occasionally - used: The doctor said it was certainly scriptural in one sense, that "it was more bless- | ed to give than to receive." Speaking of organic church union, the president said, in part, "The church has done her part, she has no- thing to regret, and will wait until her highest court declares its posi- tion."
