HNHESE Btters are purely a vegetable com

principle Of benevoence, under the fullest convic-
ton that they will be found safe and sovereign
'emedy for Dyspepsia. They have been trium-

nony as to their decided excellence, but also by the
proprietor, who. for ten years, suffered all the gloom
accident 10 that stubborn and distressing disease.
They possess the peculiar excellence, denied to
most other Btters, of not proving injurious by
tinuea use. They contain not single dele,erious
Ingredient, and, as seen from the directions which
accompany each bottle, may be given with entire
safety to an infant in the menth.

INTERESTING CEREMONY.


The interesting ceremony Of laying the Cor
ner-Stone Of new Episcopal Church in
CharleStown. according to the ritual OF the
Masonic Fraternity, was performed on Satur-
urday last in the presence Of large and high
ly respectable assemblage. The Procession
which marched through the principal streets
Of the Town to the place appointed for the
ceremony, was an imposing one; first came
the "sons Of Temperance" with the appno-
pirate badges Of their order, followed by the
members Of the "Independent Order of Odd
Fellows" decked in the splendid regaa of
that fraternity, whilst the ancient and honour
able society Of Free and Accepted Masons"
brought up the rear. Each Of these orders
were conducted by Marshall selected from
their own members. Col JAMES S. BRowN.
of Berkeley, Ga member of Equality Lodge
at the request of the Committees of Arrange
me7ts, acting as Chief Marshall arrived at
the site of the new building, the procession
was halted and the fraterniles formed in their
respective places, when The Corner Stone was
laid in ancient form by Wor. ALEx'R NEW

District Col EDMUND p HUNTER then as.
cended the stand and delivered one of the most
beautiful and appropriate addresses to which
we ever listened. Although the audience as
well as the orator, were subjected 10 the grie-
vous annoyance of an exposure to July sun

large proportion of which was composed of
ladies' left their places until the address was
concluded "a fact which of itself speaks vol
umes in favor Of its entertaining character
1t was truly mastery exposition Of the prin-
ciples of the Masonic Fraternity, in which the
claims of the order TO the confidence Of all
good men, were successfully indicated, and
its eminent capacities to meliorate the condi-
ton Of mankind clearly established. The or
ator IN the course Of his remarks alluded 10 the
duties and obligations of the members of the
fraternity, and addressed feeling exhortation
TO his brethren who were present, which we
trust will not be soon forgotten or lightly re-
membered. After the Grafton was concluded
the procession repaired to the old Church
where the services appropriate TO the day
were read by the Rev. TEMpLEMAN BRowy,
and deeply interesting address delivered by
the Rev. ALEXANDER JONES, d, D., the rec
tor OF the Church. The exercises were closed
with an ode of exceeding beauty, composed
by the Rev. Mr.. BRowN for the occasion, and
sung by the choir, We secured a copy Of this
hymn as a souvenir Of delightful day and
shall lay it before our readers next week.
