The CHEMICAL EXPERIMENTS, -
We call attention to the advertise
ment, in to-day's paper, in regard to
the exhibition of chemical expert
ments az the High School Hail. on
next Tuesday, December 18th. This
series of experiments promises to be
unusually interesting, and from what
We know of the preparations that
have already been made, We are salts
fed that our citizens will be offered a
treat that will be .oFjoyed by every
one that takes the least interest in
such matters. Chemistry, like ply
siolcgy-Dr. O'Leary says-has been
sadly neglected, and it is time that
the people of this age of advanced
ideas should understand more Of
these two great sciences. The exhi-
bition on Tuesday is for the benefit
of the High School, the funds thus
raised to be used in purchasing new
chemical apparatus for the school.

SUNDAY SCHOOL FEsTIvALs.-The
Christian Sunday School held FEES
tival at Marble Hall last night, and a
large crowd, Of both old and young
folks, were present. A handsome
Christmas tree was the great attrac-
ton to the little folks, and after some
singing and addresses, old Santa
Claus" made his appearance, to the
great delight of the scholars, who
were eager to denude the tree of its
sweet fruit. After some more singing
and addresses, some delicious cake
was passed around, and there was an
abundance for all.
This Is very prosperous Sunday
School, we are informed, and at pres
ent numbers 270, with DR.. Fl. w
Cloud as Superintendent, who spares.
no efforts to make it more attractive
as each week rolls by. He is ably as
sisted by an earnest corps Of teachers.
A Sunday School Festival was also
held at the Vine Street Presbyterian
Church, but when we reached the
scene. the exercises were over. and
we were too late to witness the hap
plness OF the little folks.

TIE PRA,.TER,s HonE.NLEy.DE.S:

In seasons when our funds are low
Subscribers are provoking slow;
few supplies keep up the flow
OF dimes departing rapidly.
But we shall see a sadder sight,
When duns pour in from morn to night,
Commanding every sixpence bright,
To be forked over speedily,i
Our bonds and due-bills are arrayed,
Each seal and signature displayed;
The holders VOW they must be paid,
With threats of law and chancery.
Then to despair we're almost driven,
There's precious little use of livin',
When our last copper's rudely riven
From hands thht held it lovingly.
But larger yet those dues shall grow,
When inteF's added on below,
Length'ning our chin a foot or so,
When gazing on them hOpelesslv.
'Tis so. that scarce have we begun,
To plead for time upon dun,
Before there comes another one,
Demanding pay ferociously.
The prospect darkens-On We brave
Who would our very bacon save
Waive, patrons, all We p.eteXts waive,
And pay the printer cheerfully.
All! it would yield us pleasure sweet,
4 few delinquents now to meet,
Asking us clear receipt.
For paper taken reg larly.
