MORGANTOWN, JULY II, 1867.
THE FOURTH OF July.

The Sabbath Schools, in town and
country, all celebrated the late Ami
vcrsary of Independence, in their usual
happy manner. At the Presbyterian
church, in town, Mr.. c. F. Black ad-
dressed the School in good style.
At the Nj. L. church, Rev. DR..
Drummond addressed the School and
w. r. Wiley, Esq, gave q most inter.
csting exhibition of the progress ofhis
slight infantry" corps. His infant
classes, in the easy conversational style
between teacher and pupil, and the
readiness and correctness with which
they gave their answers to propositions,
presented u most deeply interesting Sc
ries of exercises. Mr.. Wiley isl ecu-
liarly adapted for the position he occu-
pies, and seems to delight in its duties.
At the Baptist church, DR.. j. D. M.
Carr, and Ed. S. Siegfricd, delivered
short addresses.
At the Nj. P. church, Thos. P. Reay
addressed the School. Besides these
addresses, bountiful repasts of refresh
ments were supplied to the respective
audiences.
Mr.. II. Il. Martin addressed two
Schools at the Red Springs.
At Cassville, and Blacksville, large
celebrations are reported, with address
es by our representatives, Messrs. Bar
bour and Davis.
On Sunday, 9Th, at 8 o'clock, we
had the pleasure of addressing the M.
E. Sabbath School, at Pleasant Valley,
Preston county. Attendance large
and pleasant time.
These celebrations all came off in
good style, and were generally well en-
joyed by those in attendance. 1t is a
rational way Of celebrating the return
of freedoms natal day.
