by the Periclesian Society, of the res

dies as members Of the society, that
a majority of the club were opposed
to the resolution, and it was with
drawn. We understand that the
prime cause Of the refusal was the
bashfalness of many of the members,
who have not got the nerve" to
debate with the ladies. We must
say that we are surprised at this ex-
cuse, and should think that a young
man who has not "cheekT enough 10
talk to the girls" has but little
business belonging to a debating So

TestimonIal 70 Dr.. BAKER.

About one year ago, Rev. Samuel
Baker, D. d., assumed the pastoral
charge of the First Baptist Church in
this city. He entered upon his Ia
bors as minister, with that congrega-
ton, and has prosecuted them during
the year, as We believe, in the spirit of
the Divine Master.
In his connection with the minis
tiers of the city, he has proved himself
to be scholarly and profound in bib
lical attainments, evangelical in
Christian experiences. and courteous
as an. associate aud friend.
Therefore, we, the undersigned,
members of the Ministerial Asso-
citation of Evansville. Indiana" do
hereby accord our high appreciation
of his Christian scholarship and
character. with our deep regrets that
he feels himself called upon to sever.
by removal, his relations with this
Association, and the church With
which he has been connected. And
we do hereby assure our Brother that
he has our sincere wishes and earnest
prayers for his prosperity and useful.

NIGHT.--Notwithstanding the great
attractions elsewhere, the large Hall
in the new Catholic School House
was deDsely crowded last night, and
it was the most brilliant night of

NATIONAL HALL-Sr. JOINS Sup
PER AND FAIR.-We dropped ia at
the National Hall last night to attend
the oyster supper for the benefit of
St. Johns Church. We found the
Hall crowded with visitors, aud also
discovered, in addition to the supper,
that a sort of Fair and Festival was
in progress The spacious Hall was
elegantly decorated and presented a
very attractive appearance. There
are two tables Of fancy articles, con-
tributed by the ladiee Of the Church,
and some beautiful and useful articles
are exposed for sale, The price of
each article is plainly marked upon It.
and those who choose can purchase
elegant articles suitable for holiday
presents. or home use, at very Low
figures. We noticed some beautiful
specimens of embroidery and fine
needle work. In the centre of the
room is a. large confectionery and
cake stand, made in the form Of an
arbor, and illuminated all round with
beautiful Chinese lanterns.
Lovers Of oysters can have the
biyalyes served up in any style. Those
who desire to partake of other sub
stantials aud dclicacies will find an
excellent bill of fare from which to
select, and they will be waited onsin
the kindesttand most polite manner
by the lady attendants.
A fine string band, led by Prof.
Matthias, furnished some most excel
lent music. adding much to the inter
est of the occasion.
Another very pleasing feature was
the singing by TIE pupils of Prof.
