we learned to appreciate his virtues as chris

lead those about him to embrace the great doc

times end in all places. he exhibited the same
spirit, never compromising his integrity. The
excellency Of his character was especially ex-
hibited when called to minister to the sick and
distressed AS public man, he was honest,
faithful, ard diiigent. He once represented

The Installation of Rev. 1. Ke,,er

AS pastor of the Woodstock Char ge, took
place in the Lutheran Church in this place.
on Saturday morning last, pursuant to notice
previously given Rev. ]. F. CAMPBELL. of
Shepherdstown, but for several years pastor
of the Lutheran Church at Waynesborough.
Pa, delivered an appropriate sermon on the
occasion.
On Sabbath morning, after an impressive
sermon by Mr.. c., the pastor received several
persons into the church, most of whom had
made profession at a meeting held several
months ago. The solemn service of admins
tering the Sacrament of the Lords Supper
then followed. We do not recollect to have
witnessed more solemn and interesting scene
on any similar occasion. The number of the
communicates was unusually large; and it
was pleasing sight to see the gray headed
fathers and mothers in Israel the middle
aged, and the youth Of tender years renewing
their covenant with the Father of Mercies
around the sacred alter representing all the
denominations of christians in our midst 1t
was especially gratifying to observe among
the converts SO large proportion of the young
of both sexes All present seemed to be SOL
EMMY impressed with the grand truth, that
ssthe Lord is in His holy temple" when His
people wait upon Him according to his divine
appointment. Rev. Messrs. THOMAS MILLER
and j. CLYMER were also present and par
ticipated in the exercises. We had, on this
interesting occasion, most happy and i'm
pressive exemplifcation of that touchingly
beautiful exclamation Of the Psalmist-sBe-
hold, how good and low pleasant it is for bre-
thren to dwell together ia unity l. is like
the precious ointment upon the head, that ran
down upon the beard, even Aarons beard;
that went down to the skirts of his garments;
as the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that
descended upon the mountains Of Zion; for
there The Lord commanded the blessing, even
life for evermore."

In place of coarse, rustic, flushed face she had
soft ruby complexion of almost marble smoothness,

but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the cause of so
great change, she plainly told them that she used
