The Young Folks, Concert,

The Musical Festival given at the Court House
on Friday evening last, by the young Masters and
Misses of Perrysburg, was well patronized, and
proved decided success. The costume and ar
rangement of the class presented a variation and
intermnglng of the " Star-spangled Red. " hite
and Blue" which was decidedly refreshing, and
elected the admiration of the audience: the pro-
gramme embraced full variety of pieces, ranging
from the inspiring notes of patriotism to the plain
tive "Gwine Home" of the Intelligent contra
band " while the performance throughout was
greeted with repeated cheers. Among the crcdita
Bile pieces may be mentioned 90" We Sing Our
Country's Song Tonight" by the class The
First Gun is Fired" by Misses Ella Norton, Bessie
Westcott and Emma Kreps; Southern Seces-
aiop," BY Ada Hitchcock, Lodema johnson and
Hattie Marks; Orphan Flower Girl by Sarah
Curtis +" Merry, Merry Girls" by Misses Emma
and Sarah Beach Mistaken PROPOSAL" by Mar
shall Ross and Lorraine Gum; "To-Day I'm Sixty
two," by Emma Merry; " Ellsworth Funeral" by
May Norton and not least among the attractions
the grotesquc military squad of Captain Willie
Cassady. Many other excellent pieces were given,
the nan.es of whose performers unknown to us,
The performance concluded with grand illumina-
ted tableau-' The Death of Secession" On the
whole, the concert was highly creditabe to its
young participants, evincing degree of study aad
preparation at once careful and thorough. We
understand that the concert was repeated on Sat
urday evening.

The following article from the Charleston
Courier, paper which WAS much less anxious
to enter upon the sea Of war than It's con-
temporary, the Mercury, when the long-so8n'
seeds Of the rebellion first began to sprout in
that hot-hed OF treason, shows the depth Of
the misery brought upon the Southern States:
The continuance Of this contest involves in-
creased suffering. The evils that follow in
the train OF this calamitous visitation grow
more direful with every day. Other hearts
than those now aching with anxiety and bleed
ing from bereavement are rent with grief, and
tie friend Who sJmpsthized with some at1lict-
ed one yesterday, today weeps bitter tears
over his own sorrow. The iron is driven the
deeper: and cur burdens become more and
more heavy. And though more than eighteen
months have passed away Since the strife Was
begun, the end seems more distant than It ap-
peared to be twelge-month since. Hope
after hope has gone out In darkness, and ex-
pectations We had fondlY cherished have
turned ont to be miserable delusions. So
often have we been disappointed and deceived,
that nov our faith rejects every promise and
turns away from every sign. Our foe is IS
active and determined aud powerful as ever
he YVES, and the agent that was to compel for
eign nations to intervene and put Al end to
this wicked and infamous contest, has not
been potent enough to accomplish thai end.
We stand a1one- Vast hosts are mastering

Etinate courage the attempts that have been
made, and strongho]ds hitherto unattached

Tile Divers Lantern.

1A6 D1FeT58 &laAfeFR.
The following description Of a Few "diyer's
lantern" is taken from the Boston Transcript.
It is the invention of George ". Fuller, 4
young Boston mechanic:
As very meagre description Of his in7en-
ton take the following: 1t is really but trife
larger than an ordinary Kerosene lamp, and
weighs only fifteen pounds when filed for
use. Think OF those hitherto used weighing
ninety pounds! Those formerly in use Fe-
qulre gutta percha tube for supplying the
flame with fresh air from an air pump above
one also for conveying to the surface the foul
air epgendered by tie fame, and In addition q
line b which to lower it into the water aud
draw it up again, making three separate lines
really dispenses with the whole Of thess lines,
since the lube feeding the fame with freah
air may be attached directly to the fresh air
pipe for the diver himself; but when 80 used
requires but 3 single *'supplS" tnbe, the foul
sir within the lantern passing Though an in-
genious1E arranged spring valve directly into
The water.
New when we remember that the diver him
self, independently of any lantern, must have
two lines attached to his 2rmor-one for the
fresh air be himself must have tor breathing,
and the other life 1ine," by which he sig
nails to those on the surface--it will be seen
readily that on the old plan the diver must
be encumbered at least with five lines, By
which the risk OF getting hElplessly entangled
In them greatly increases the danger Of his
already na1ardous vocation. Il RAILROAD con
ductor hardly goes hla rounds with his 1anter.

| Another point OF great Importance secursi
| By Mr. Fuller Is the concentration Of the lau
tern by means Of Eehectors situated back 0
! the flame. through which, the divers told me
they could see clearly objects at the distauc
Of fifteen feet, and at seven feet they coult
read the finest print-a statement I can en-
dorse from actual trial.
Last August Mr. Fuller exhibited his inveu
ton, though by no means perfected then, il

secently contracted with our government t
