S47 ral principles. Each of the Minor or County Confer- ences, in distinction from the larger or State Conference, assumes a distinctive name, generally that of the County ; and all the particular churches within that County may become members of it, if they see fit. The constitution, by which the Conference is governed, states the number of lay delegates, who shall be members of it, the number and duties of its officers, the time of the annual meeting, the prominent religious exercises, and wh...atever else is deemed necessary for its organization, usefulness, and permanency. In particular, there is generally found in the Constitu- tion of each Conference an article to this effect ; That it shall neither assume, nor exercise any control in matters of faith, or discipline of the church ; although it may give advice, when requested. ^218.

Any number of churches in the same vicinity may meet together by their delegates, and frame a constitution.
