The performances were peculiarly interesting.
and from the large attendance thereat, it would
appear that lasting and deep interest is felt i'll
the cause of Education by the citizens OF Gal
ltzin and vicinity. The march of the cause OF
Education appears to be onward, and its friends
may be truly named legion. We can say to the
friends of it at distance that Gallltzln can boas
of as distinguished and learned scholars or pupils
of a common school education any district II
the county. Mr.. Gleason, the teacher, opened
the Exhibition by introducing Master Rober
Watt, an interesting boy, seven years of age
who delivered Webster's speech upon the com
pletion of the Bunker HHl Monument. Maste
James Smith, youthful star orator, next ap
peared. He spoke impressively and effectively
and is promising boy. Next appeared Joshu
Williamson, in a speech on the ''Pen and tn
Press. He excelled, and held his audience il
breathless silence during its delivery 1t wonl
require more time than | can well spare to d
Justice to all the youthful orators present. Th
female portion sang, and held the audience en-
Etranced with their angelic anthems. during th
afternoon. They were scholars of Mr.. Gleason
| school. SUMMlTVlLLE.
