DIE SoIoMoNs, 'eThe Flowers" Mss HOFFMAN re-
cited some pretty verses on Pu.im; Master S.
sANcKER sThe Voice Of Nature"
g Miss c. OrIoLENau1, q young lady apparently
not over seven or eight Of age, repeated
verses (''The Rainbow') with admirable effect. Her
elocution was unexceptionable, her expression
touching, and her gestures very graceful. This
was followed by dialogue by Misses J. So1oNoNs
and A. MosE-tsThe Better Land The whole
school then joined in the following hymn, written
for this anniversary occasion by Mrs. P. NJ G., to
the air Of stHome, Sweet Home:"
We ioyfuIy greet this day's happy return
And worship the God whose commandments We learn,

The first class then examined in cate
chsm by Rev. NJ. d. MYERS, in which the catchu-
mems acquitted themselves very well Master p
WINEMAN next recited the well-mown and touch
ing Hebrew tale OF the Rabbi and the Jewels. The
defamation was executed with excellent taste and
much pathos. tsGifts to the Poor" was recited by
Miss II. H1RscmEID. s'Two Angels" by Miss
AMDA COHEN, was very well rendered ssThe
Vision OF Beshazzar, ~. by Master NJ. JACOBS, was
very well delivered. Ruth and Naomi" by Miss
JESSIE CoHE:N, met with many plaudits. :eHagar
in the Wilderness" was rendered in excellent taste
and with fine dramatic effect by Miss R. OrToLEN-
aU1 "Our aim" by Master LOEB, followed next.
dialogue between Misses s. SoLoaoNs and E.
LEVY, on the Pu1'ina Festival was very well
spoken, and pleased generally. Master. A. OT7o-
LENaUI made very fine, and excellently delivered
speech on the Influence of Hope at the close Of
Life" One Of the best pieces of this very interest
ing programme was the dialogue on ssIoses in
the Bulrushes," by Misses LOLA O1ToLENau1 and
ISABELLA TOBIAS. While hearing their very in
teresting performance, we involuntarily regretted
the absence Of stage and scenery to lend ad-
ditional aid to their dramatic utterances. It was
little awkward for the Princess, PHARAou's
daughter, to solloquize. unconscious of the
presence of Miriam. Miss O. made an excellent
Miriam.
Master NJ. MoRDEcA1 repeated DAv1Ds lament
over ABsoLoM after which q Hebrew Psalm was
sung; and then the prizes distributed by Miss
A. SIMPSON, the Superintendent, who merits the
highest praise for the excellent manner in which
the children had been trained. Everything passed
off SO satisfactorily that she has every reason to
feel gratifed on finding how well her labors have
been appreciated. She was ably assisted by Mrs.
P. WINEarAN. st..t. ~ 's5 r.

METNAnDH addressed the teachers and children IN
a few remarks pertinent to the occasion,
RELIEF FOB THE DESTITUTE steamer Mem

some days since with full cargo OF corn, donated
by the Southern Relief Association to the destitute
in this State, has been discharged, and the corn
by the direction Of the United States Authorities
ordered to be distributed in the different istrcts
The city undertook the transportation to the rail
road and the long string ofloaded drays that passed
from the wharf to the depot yesterday, bearing the
statf Of life to the needy, was a cheering sight.
The amount distributed was three thousand two
hundred sacks, or six thousand four hundred bush-
els, and only those points were selected where
there had bsen the greatest want. AS this is free
donation, the railroad companies will: no doubt;
carry it to the different points withont any charge
for freight. General TYLER: has been: in charge Of
the portion of the cargo destined for this State,
and efforts have been made, both BY himself and the
other officers stationed at this port, to ascertain
where the greatest destitu ton prevailed, and send
the corn to those points alone. The following
letter from Major DEAN: to Lieut., JOHNSON, the
Provost Marshal, was handed to the Mayor yester-
day morning., and contains fun information re-
garding both. the delivery and destination
