ANNIVERSARY OF THE PRESBYTERIAN

ANNIVERSARY OF THE PRESBYTERIAN
SABBATH SCHOOL UNIoN-ANNUAL Re-
PoRT-INTEREsTTNG STATTsTIcs-REv. DR..
READS SABBATH ScHooL.-A very large
number of scholars, teachers, and others
interested in the Sabbath schools of this
denomination met in DR.. HOge's church
Yesterday afternoon to celebrate the ami
versary of the Union. The scene pre-
sented by the large number of children
was an interesting one, and the deep inte-
rest manifested by them in the proceed
ings was truly gratifying and encouraging
to those who have charge of the little ones.
The occasion was one which to report
er goes far to counterbalance many of the
sights of vice and woe with which he is
almost daily brought into contact.
The report Of the president shows, as we
published few days since, that there has
been an increase Of twenty-five per cent.
in the number of scholars, as well as teach
ers, during the past year. The schools are
all in fourishing condition, and still
greater increase is hoped for in the ensu-
ing twelve months.
We give below an abstract of the annual
reports of the different schools connected
with the Union for the year ending April
20 1867

ASSISTANT BISHOP WHITTLE-The cleo
tion of this venerable divine to the assist
ant bishopric of the diocese of Virginia
leads us to believe that a concise blogra-
ply of the new bishop may not be unin-
teresting to our readers.
Francis NJ. Whittle was born in Mecklen-
burg county, Va, in the year 1917, and is,
therefore, now in the tiftieth year OF his
age. His brothers, Commodore and Conway
Whittle, have been well-known to many
of our citizens, and the former was dis
tinguished officer of the old United States
Navy. Francis graduated at the Protest
ant Episcopal Theological Seminary near
Alexandria, Va, and was ordained as a
deacon in July, lS47. In lS4S he was ad-
mitted to priests orders, and soon after
took charge of church in kanawha
county. Thence he removed to Goochland,
and was for several years pastor OF st.
Pauls and Beaver Dam churches, OF which
bishops J. p. B. and Richard Wilmer were
also nj other times pastors. From Gooch-
land he went to Clarke, and then settled in
Louisville, KY, where he now resides.
Bishop Whittlc is 4 man of strong south
crn sympathies, an ardent, hard working
Christian, popular preacher; and the al
most unanimous vote which elevates him
to the diocesan chair of Virginia testllies
that he is universally beloved.

BOLD RoBBERY.SOn Friday night last,
the room of Mr.. Bass, in the Exchange
Hotel, was entered and robbed of S275,
two valuable diamond pins, and hand
some Jet and pearl breastpin. From ap-
pearances it is supposed that the thief first
went to the room of Mr.. BasS's daughter,
adjoining the one in which he and his lady
slept, and unlocked the door with pair
of burglars pincers. Finding the door
bolted on the inside, he went to the room
in which were Mr.. and Mrs. Bass, and sue
ceeded with his pincers in getting in. He
took from Mr.. Bass's shirt-bosom dia-
mond pin, and from his pocket S275 in Uni
ted States currency. He then went to the
bureau and took handsome pearl and jet
breastpin, belonging to Mrs. Bass, and a
diamond pin, which was attached to her
watch chain. The watch and chain he did
not disturb, fearing, doubtless, that they
might lead to his detection.
The robbery was discovered on Saturday
morning, up to which time no idea who
committed it had been entertained. A
man named Russell, who has been following
Mr.. and Mrs. Bass from Philadelphia, was
found missing from the hotel on Saturday
morning. On inquiry, it was pretty well
ascertained that he had jumped on the
Fredericksburg cars at the north end OF
the CANDLES Hill tunnel. This was i'm
mediately telegraphed to Washington, and
on Yesterday afternoon intelligence was
received that Russell had been arrested in
that city. He will be brought to this city
for trial.

UNLUCKY.-During the late Hollywood
Bazaar, valuable article was offered for
rattle, with one hundred shares at one dol
lar each. A gentleman desiring to be-
come the possessor, and deeming it fully
worth the sum to be raised by the rattle,
offered to take all the shares not already
taken. Only one had been subscribed for,
and our friend therefore took the ninety
nine, confident, of course, that the prize
was his own. Great was his astonishment,
therefore, upon the day of drawing to find
the one which he had missed the lucky
number, and himself ninety-uine dollars
out of pocket. How often would such a
circumstance occur in thousand rafiles

THE WHEAT CRoP.-In conversation with
gentlemen from several of the counties OF
eastern Virginia, including Henrico and
Chesterfield, we learn that the wheat
which few weeks ago was represented as
unusually promising does not now give so
fine a prospect for good crop. The fly
in many places is making serious ravages.
One intelligent farmer remarked in our
hearing that he would be willing to take
three dollars per acre less for his whole
crop than he would have accepted a
month ago.
