oRprNArIoN ATT sAooARAPPA.

The ordination on Wednesday last OF MI.
Joseph DanieIson, recent graduate of Union
Theological Seminary, as pastor OF the Con
gregational Church in Saccarappa, was emil
nently satisfactory as to the candidate, while
the other exercises of the occasion were per-
haps never excelIed in interest in this re-
gion.*
Invocation and reading of the scriptures
were by Rev. Mr.. Pottle of the Methodist
Church. The subject of the sermon, by Rev.
Mr. Walker of this city, was "Jesus Christ. the
same yesterday, and to-dayand forever" and if
ever preacher adhered closely to his text from
beginning to end, it, was done in this instance.
in manner at once clear, comprehensive,
scriptural, eloquent, arresting and holding the
undivided attention of the large audience to
the close, and leaving the distinct impression
on all minds Of the absolute necessity on the
part of preachers, if they would secure success,
OF knowing nothing in their work as ambassa-
doris save Jesus Christ and him crucifed.
The charge by Rev. Mr.. Davenport, of Con-
necticat, the pastor of the candidate was very
impressive, and a perfect gem of its kind
Nothing indeed could have been more appro-
pirate, and no one could be better fitted to ad-
dress the candidate on the sacred obligations
of the Office he was about to assume.
OF the right hand by Rev. Mr.. Strong, the
ordaining prayer by Rev. Mr.. Warren, the
address to the people, by Rev. DR.. Adams, and
the concluding prayer by Rev. John G. Adams,
of Falmouth, it may be sufficient to say that
the highest anticipations Of the audience were
fully realized. Mr.. Strong is fitted by nature
for tender service, and a more loving, affec-
Tomato, genial, hearty welcome perhaps was
never extended TO mortal man than was Civ
en- to this candidate; and if there was dry
eye in that assembly it must have been of one
wholly unused to tears.
The singing by the choir is included in the
general commentator, and formed an impor-
tant link in the chain of exercises whose in
terest and Importance were not confined tc
the hour, but viii have significance and force
long after the heads of those who were pres
ent lie low in the dust
= The Council was organized by the choice of Rev.
VIM Warren as moderator, and Rev. HOrahO Ilsley

NEARLY READY.-The Yellow Jacket
Company's works are being rapidly com'
pleted, and will be ready for operation in
five or six days. They will be magnia-
cent. The building is the largest and
best IN the State for similar purposes.
The main building is IS by so feet in size.
On the south is an extension some go feet
in length for a carpenter shop, and on the
north is another wing Al feet in length,
making the entire length Of the building
1856 feet. The space thus afforded, within
cover, is ample for the carrying on of as
extensive operations above ground as can
be required by the mining, which is done
through one shaft. The machinery which
is now being erected is powerful, and
will be all that will be required for a year
at least. The company, however, intend
to put up one or more engines next
spring, to be ready to meet any ~exigency
which may be required. Everything is
being done in the most substantial style.
We like to see such permanent improve
ments on our mines. 1t shows confidence
in their stability. The hand to mouth
manner in which many of u companies
are working their mines is costing this
country and mine owners great sums Of
money, which would otherwise go for
profit. As q matter Of economy we want
such works as the Yellow Jacket Compa-
ny are building, and if the Superintend.
ents of other mining companies would
adopt the same substantial Of
working their mines, we think that the
condition Of the mines and mining compa-
MES along the Comstock lode would event.
ually be much bettertd.
