The corn crop is coming out very
well, since the heavy rains ceased to

i think the time is not far distant
when the people of Indiana will plant
as much Of their corn on sod as posi-
ble-it can be plowed earlier and
gives more time to break up the
ground in the spring; then sod ground
is not liable TO suffer from the drouth
or extreme heavy rains, as much as
other ground is. This climate is so
liable to sudden extremes, that farm
ers ought to be prepared to meet
any emergency. While corn is
growing, it is a very heavy rain that

Union Chapel Sabbath-School Cele-
bratiOu.


bration.
We desire to notice, through the
columns of the Journal, the Sabbath
School celebration which came oil at
Union Chapel on the 9th inst. 1t
proved a decided success. The fol
lowing schools were represented by
delegations, viz: Union Chapel, Col
lege Corner, Huntsville, Mount
Pleasant, and Williamsburg. The
various schools assembled ut the
Chapel and formed in procession,
after which they were marched into
Veal's Grove, where they were en-
tertained by singing and an address
from Rev. Mr.. Barnes. Then came
dinner, served up in picnic style.
Ample provision was made for all,
and wherever we passed, we would
be invited to partake of the choicest
viznds, which were spread in prOfu-
sion and abundance on the gracious
clap Of earth"
After the dinner was dispatched,
the audience was assembled, and
were entertained by singing and adj
dresses by Rev. +. Johnson, Rev.
VIM. Bower, and Rev. Mr.. Metz, of
Hagerstown. The addresses were
highly entertaining and instructive.
The address Of Rev. Mr.. Metz was
indeed humorous, and especially
adapted to amuse the ''iittlc folks,
while he threw out some very valu-
able hints to the silver haired fathers.
Mr.. Metz is n live man, an easy
speaker, and keeps pace with the
age in which he lives. The different
schools were well represented. Up
wards of three hundred pupils of
Sabbath Schools were in the process
sion. One striking and encouraging
feature was that fair proportion of
the pupils were young ladies and
gentleman. 1t was a noticeable fact
that the ladies had the faircst repre-
sentation. We would that more of
our young men, who are just coming
on to the stage of active manhood,
would identify themselves with the
institutions of moral and religious
training, instead of following after
vice and MISUNDERSTANDING many
to misery and unhappiness, and final
ly, at the end of time, reaching eter-
nal ruin.
Teachers, and friends Of Sabbath
Schools, look up. We are on van
tage ground. Wcbelieve the day is
fast approaching when that blcst in
junction of the Scripture, "Remcm-
Der now thy Creator, in the days Of
thy youth will be obeyed. The
Sabbath School is the dressing
for the church. Let Us not be forget
full that the work we do IN it will for
ward the up-building of the church,
and may all be faithful. We may
have hours of darkness, seasons
when the evil one tries to make us
believe that we are rendering no
service to our good Master, but let
us not fall into the "slOugh of de-
spondency," but let us continue to
"sow bread upon the waters hoping
"that it may be gathered many days
hence" NALO.

a JoKE.-In moving an old smoke
house in town, on last Tuesday, a
gentleman dropped three gold pieces,
and was seen picking them up, which
excited the passion in others for
gold. 1t was noised about that a
considerable sum of gold had been
lost on the premises several years
ago, therefore it was not long until
there were plenty of gold hunters
on the ground who diligently exam
ined the dirt to find the precious
metal, supposing the pieces picked
up were some Of the lost coin; but
all the time the supposed finder was
laughing in his sleeve.

A NOMINATING ELECTION, for Post
master, for the office at Winchester,
took place on last Saturday. The
candidates were Rev. j. G.. Brice,
VIM. r. Way, Geo. McAdams, and
James Williamson. There was con
siderable interest manifested in the
matter, and some little excitement,
growing out of the question who
were proper persons to vote. Some
claimed that all persons who re-
ceived mail matter at the Office were
entitled to vote. 1t was decided
that all who voted for Mr.. Lincoln,
or who would have voted for him
had they had an opportunity to have
done SO, were legal voters, as none
but member of the Union party
could be Postmaster. As it was q
party nomination, we think this was
right.
