A CARD.-The Ladies Of St. Marks Church
return their grateful Acknowledgements to the
citizens Of Lewistown and vicinity for their
generous contributions which enabled them
to give series Of entertainments for the ben
eft Of their Church, as well as 10 those who
so generously patronized and encouraged
them. The amount realized from Their effort
has fully equalled their highest hopes, and is
but another evidence Of the proyerbial iiber-

the generosity of the people has been so gen
eral it would be invidious to particularize.
