There is perhaps who would create so
much enthusiasm, and command much respect
and esteem from the citizens of Richmond, as the
English Orator who has boon with both this and
popular lecturer, he is known to them no
less popular preacher. The sermon Sabbath
evening, Feb. 9th, Tin the United Presbyterian
Church North 9Th ST. as it came from his lips,
appeared more TO one of Americas ablest Di-
vines. than Henry Vincent the lecturer.
He tookAs his text Ps. 25 5verse ''Lead me in thy
truth, aud teach me-" It would be vain for ben to
attempt a description of the beautiful symmetry, the
arguments and illustrations, presented by Mr..
Vincent. z90T& EEtSl Efhe
Suffice it say that it was of the ablest and
most effective sermons ever listened to. Skeptcs
were made to tremble and weep under its power
Infdelity had not point which to hang for safe
ty. All arguments, illustrations and appeals
made with such force and power to rivet the at
tention of all his hearers. If attention shows appre-
citation (and it certainly does) Mr. vincent's sermon
must have been fully appreciated. The Church was
densely packed and of individuals thou stand
ing, were held motionless by the power of gospel
trnth presented. yA
Henry Vincent has gone again but not without the
prayers of many warm friends following him. May
the King and Head of Zion richly reward him.

Read who Says So.


From Kew W D: Seigfred, Pastor of Twelfth Bap-
fist Church, Philadelphia.
Gentleman 81 have recently been laboring under
the distressing effects of indigestion accompanied bv
prostration of the nervous system. Numerous
remedies were recommended by friends. and some Of
them tested. but without relief. Your HooAand's
herman bitters were recommended by persons who
had tried them and whose favorable mention of these
Bnters induced me to try them. I must confess
that had aversion to Patent Medicines from the
thousand and one" quack "Bitters," whose only
liquor upon the community in sly way and the ten
dency of which, fear, is to make many confirmed
medicinal preparation, took it with happy effect.
Its ion, not only upon the stomach but upon the
nervous system, was prominent and gratifying i
feel that have derived great and permanent benefit
from the use of few bottles.
Very respectfully yours,

MAJOR b. L. MARTIN. We do not
know whether our friend MARTIN desires
to go back to the Legislature from this
county; but of one thing we are sure,
that we have heard of no Republican
spoken of more frequently for that po-
sitions by his many friends from the diff
ferent townships in the county, than
himself, and their unanimous desire is
that he will permit his name to come be-
fore the April nominating election, to
be chosen for that sstread mill" position.
DESERVED MENTIoN-A friend relates
an incident to the credit of the $ Ave
nue. House" proprietors-M G@h-
ner 81 Co.-that deserves recording
Some weeks ago, a woman. in poor cir
cumstances, who was returning to her
home in the Western part of this State,
arriving on the cars at night, and being
sick, stopped at the Avenue House"
near the Depot. She made known to the
generous proprietors, her pecunlary cir
cumstances, and they cheeriully admin
istered to her necessities. A short time
thereafter, she was confined, and fine,
healthy babe was born. They kept her
at the avenue until she had entirely
and then sent her and her
babe on her road home-requiring moth
ing for their trouble and expense but
receiving the thanks and blessings of
this poor woman for their unselish and
Christian kindness and benevolence.
Messrs Goehnef & Co. have sufficient
reward in feeling good under their vests,
for this Samaritan act, and it is
worth mentioning, because, "iike angels
visits" such an incident is extremely
rare with landlords. May Heaven bless
Jacob and his household and prosper
the avenue House.

Here is another: A. NJ. Taylor Of Loudon County,
