THE GRAND MORAL ExHrBIrrox CoxIye.-
This is the celebrated Menagerie Of Van
Ambursh Co., and is the only complete Ex.
hibition of the kind now travelling, and the
only one not accompanied BY demoralizing
circus performances. An opportunity is here
offered to study natural history that may not
be, perhaps, again presented in Lifetime.
The Menagerie is managed in manner
not approached BY any other travelling exhi.
bition, while in point Of interest il outranks
them all. There is no study equal in it,
results, to the study of Natural History. Il
teaches mans superiority to the brute crea,
ton, his accountability to-, and acknowledg
ment, of the wisdom and grandeurs of the
Omniscient Creator. It teaches also the
habit of inquiry into the causes of things
leading the mind of man from nature up te
natures God.h
?. I. Barnum, and many other men o.
long experience, are interested in this Exhi,
bition, and have selected animals and other
objects best calculated to instruct the public.
Parents, ticket in this Exhibition is the
best investment you can make.

COUNTY SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION
The Lee County Sunday School Convention,
held on Wednesday and Thursday of this
week, was we'll attended, and much interest
panifested. About one hundred and fifty
!. delegates we're present, about twenty-five Of
them being ministers. The discussions were
animated, but marked with good spirit, and
every one seemed to Aave the Convention
with more interest in the Sunday School
cause, and determination TO labor more
faithfully.
The reports were not all in but from what
we're, it was found that about forty,eight
per cent. Of oil the children in the county,
between the ages of FIVE and twenty, were
connected with the Sabbath Schools, the per
cent varying in the different townships from
twenty>three to one hundred, Denmark hav-
ing the highest
/. w. Dean, of Chicago, was present, and
by his words of cheer and counsel added
greatly to the pleasure and profit of the Con.
vention. But his great power Is with the
children. He conducted several children
meetings, and the deepest interest was mani.
tested in them all ; and not only were the
children blessed, but the hearts Of older ones
made glad, as he spoke to them of the lie
and1ove Of the Savior.
The efficient County Secretary, II. S.
Howell, was present, and entered into, or
rather moved all the proceedings along with
his Characteristic earnestness. His heart 10
fully enlisted in this good cause.
We learn the whole proceedings will be
published in the Fort Madison Plaindealsr,
and perhaps In pamphlet form.
