Al ihe yesterdays meeting of the General
ifjhristian Couimunity at Breslau, John
*3? Rouge addressed the assembly in an ener-
getic speech, on the hindrances to the estab-
lishment of a Universal Christian Commu-
nily, and on the spirit in which alone they
could be overcome. He spake also of the
duty and necessity of establishing freedom of
conscience, in accordance with the original
spirit of Christianity and the spirit of the
age After this address, the following lea-
dino principles and declarition of faith ofthe
Univeraal Christian Church were again dis-
-cussed, and in the endagreed on.’

WASHING'rON. March 2'-lili.
The -Texas Iuiquity’ seems to give the
concocters of the scheme more trouble than
they anticipated. In Sattird:-iy’s Richmond
Enquirer there were two or three columns of
lucubratinns over the state of the case,_ and
to-day we have about the same. quantity of
matter on the same rubject. The editor be-
seeclies Senator Dickinson’s 'clark-haired sis-
my not to give brother Jonathan the ‘mitten.’
_\,Ve S;,,,,d ii, 3 pretty position before the world.
xve are ii-i-ir~_,g to annex ourselves to n beati-
tiful young Lady-Republic, who refuses to
be annexed Senator Dickinson and Tom
Ritchie got down on their marrow-bones to,
sue for acceptance. The young lady putsl
her hand to her nose and moves her fingers
in scorn at them. Evrn Jolm 10095 has .‘.-I0’
into the ‘melting mood,’ and into day's l\l:id-
isonian weeps over the pangs of *Unrequitcd
Love.’
The best of it istoo. that there can be but
one attempt made to annex TexfiS- Th?
Joint Resolutions as they passed Congress
provide that ifthe President should see fit
not to make the overture to TEXNS in lllt?
form in which it came from the House, then
anzl only then, should his fall back on the
foolish alternative of Walker in the Senate;
but the President li.a.s already accepted the
House Resolution and of course he is forev-
er after stnppef. from the other alternative,‘
and the commission can not be.- opened with
Texts. There is now no alternative; Tex-
as must either take the House R:-solution or,
nothing. She clearly indicates that she Wllll
not accept it. All the time wasted. on this
suliioci, therefore, amounts to nothing.
The southern pnprrs ai'e rallying the
friends ofTexas and Slavery to the approach-
ing Spring contest, as they feel that substan-
iiaiiy nnihing has been done for Annexation
yet. Will not the friends ofthe Constittition
and the Union as it is, rally to the contest
also? Let the voice ofCo.nnecticut be heard
in tones of thunder. from a full Whig Dide-
gation in place of the four Locofocos who
voted without exception, for the annexation
of Texas Slavery and a violated Constitution;
and all Connecticut can. and will make a
difference of eight. ,
I hear of but few appointments or remov-
als to day.
I understand th .t a man named Fletcher.
another Tennesseenn. has been appointed
lvlarshul of the Distric of Illinois.
I hear also that Mr. Robert R:intou_l,
has been appointed Attorney for the DiSl.flCl

Office, is still Cl5.ll:'lgt.’?'0U$ly sick. I under.
stand that had the case been fully understood
he would have been reappoint:-d by 'tVlr.Polli'.
Mr. Tyler first appointed him, and the Sen-
aie Committee reported against him, because
they thought that Tyler had no cause to
make the removal. Mr. Polk hearing that
the committee had reported against li‘im,sup-
posed that they would again reject bis nom-
inatioti. This, it is said would not have
been the case. They would have let him
pass bad he been re-nominated.
I understand that some ofthe Locofocos of
New Yorlr City, wlio were lilt! means of

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.
A most melancholy and heart rending ac-
cident occurred in-this city last etwniog at
the_ foundry and blacksmith shop of Mr. Du-
.vall, No. 102 Charlton street. The facts, so
far as we could ascertain. are these: Mr.
B-tsternian. keeperof the Light-house atS.ln-
dy Hook, has been in the habit for_some time
past of raking the bay around the Hook for
old iron, the, which he l;rough_t to the city
and sold to Mr. Dfivall. On Saturday last
a load was brought to Duvall's shop by Mr.
Bzisterman, among which was a bomb-sh-.-ll
or petard, about I6 inches in length and I0
in diameter, which Mr. B. had raked up ti
few (lays before. Yesterday while Mr. Du-
vall was removing the bomb from his shop
to the sidewalk for the purpose of weighing
it, he discovered that it contained powder,
and on taking a hammer and striking it for
the purpose of getting the powder out, it ex-
plodrfl and instantly kill:-ri Mr. Duvall, the
owner of the shop.Mr. Aaron 0 Price, mas-
ter mason, of 79 Thompson street, Robert
Boderick. of the corner of Hudson and King
streets, and so injured a boy, whose name we
could not learn, that he died in a few hours.
The horse of Mr. Price, from whit-h that
oentlenian bad just dismounted, was also in-
stantly killcd. The windows in the neig
borhood were very much shattered by the
explosion, and a piece of the shell weighing
ovvr two’ pounds was blown to the corner of
V.-trick and Carmine streets. :1 distance of
nearly four blocks, and struck within a fen
feet of two children who were playing in the
street. It is believed that this shell, with its
contents, must have been in the place who-new
it w:IS raked since the last war. Mr. Du
Viill was an estimable ('lllZ n, aged about 33
and has left a wife and child, _ Mr, P,ic..
was also highly csteeined. about 40 years of
age, and has left a wife and two children.
Boderick was a youth of about l7. The
Coroner was sent for immediately, but post-
poned the inquest uutlil to day, "we do “or

authority, with ilie following brief statements,
from the notes of the Secretaries. of sonieoftbe
most important doings ofthe Conference:
All the cases in which any ofthe ministers
were involved in connection with Slavery,
were satisfactorily disposed of; so that
now the Conference is more pt-rft-etly
free from slavery than for many _vt.-ai's pre-
vious.
The vote on the rrcomrnendation of the
Getieral Conference so to change the sixth
restrictive rule, as to allow a division of the
church Funds, in case a division of the
Chtircli should take place, stood——for the
recoiiinier:d..tiou, -if : against it, 150. So
the confert-tact-did not concur.
Uoiversil hurinon_v and good feeling pre-
the close
ofthe conference, and all the discussions
were crmtllicfetl in ii manner doing great
credit to the character of the Chistain minis-
ry.
The sulj -ct of the division of the church
was not d;ri-ctly entertained. The confer-
ence is nearly unnuiniously opposed to it.—-
No (.lelt'gatr‘s were appointed to the Louis-
ville convention. There is not the least
