GERMAN ENIGRANTs-On Saturday
night last from l40 to $50 emigrants,
direct from Germany, (Bem, we under
stood) arrived at our depot and staid un-
til late on Sunday night, when they took
the cars for Chicago-Illinois being their
destination as their future home. They
appeared to be in rather destitute cir
cumstances, and several of them, mostly
children, were quite sick. Our German
fellow citizens, whose hearts are always
in the right place, and whose hands are
ever ready to assist those who are in
need, took the major part of them to
their church on South Franklin ST., and
provided than with abundant snn,.isr
OF food, coffee, &C., through Sunday,
and in the afternoon Rev. Mr.. Severing-
hsus, the pastor of that church where
they were entertained, preached to them
giving them spiritual and temporal ad-
vice and counsel, that no doubt will be
remembered by these strangers, with
pleasure and profit in their new homes.
The sick at the depot, and those who
were attending to them there, were like
wise supplied with provisions, and had
every care and attention bestowed upon
them that it was possible for our fellow
citizens to do.
We are informed that sixteen Of their
number died on ship board, coming over
to this country.

That Hail Storm.

We noticed several Of our farmers
whose wheat was damaged, by the hail
storm on the 4th of last month, to con-
siderable extent. Since then we have
heard of quite a number, and among
them Jonathan Scarce, and j. NJ. Bula,
and others, South and South Least of town
whose promising crops of wheat were
either wholly or partially destroyed. j.

acres totally destroyed. He immediate

about Is acres-selected his corn-soak-

Pearl Street M. e. Church.

On Friday last, we took a look at the
new Improvements on and in this Church
and were agreeably surprised at the
really fine, yet neat appearance it pre-
sents. There is nothing gaudy or taw-
dry about the frescoing-whichi is taste
full and chaste, and the artistic, Mr.. A.
FIsKE, deserves high commentator for
the superior manner in which he has done
his work--it is q job that he may we'll be
proud of. The Pulpit is really beauti
full in its plain and simple elegance
just high enough for the preacher to be
near his congregation, so that his hearers
may feel that he is not elevated away
above them and has naught in on
with them. The old fashioned up stairs
pnlpits, always impressed us with this
unpleasant idea. Mr.. BENJAMIN LINDSEY,
designed and superintendent the building
OF the pulpit, and the manner in which
he has accomplished the work, reflects
great credit on his taste and skill as an
accomplished mechanic. The painting
of the seats, outside walls, doors &C.,
was done by Mr.. c. II. SMITH. and is we'll
done The carpentering is the handi
work Of MAHLoN JONES, who is proven
bal for being "a workman that needeth

admirable arrangement on the back of
each seat--an iron Book Rack-that is
quite an Improvement. The wood stoves
are taken away, and they are to be re
placed with coal stoves of most beauti-
full pattern. from the establishment of

$1,000, and we think it is cheap at tb.s
