PROCEEDINGS OF THE GENERAL CONFERENCE.
We would respectfully suggest to the Book Agents at New York, the publication in pamphlet form, of the reported proceedings of the late General Conference. We think that all our ministers at least would desire to possess them for reference, and they might serve a valuable purpose in future years, by showing what views were entertained in reference to many points of our discipline, in this our day. Their publication in the official papers of our Church, does not, we think, supersede the necessity of them in pamphlet form, which would be much more convenient for preservation and reference.
