neap Yesterday was held the forty
seventh anniversary of the Sabbath
School of the Second Presbyterian
Church, The day was lovely one and
everything seemed favorable for the
full enjoyment of the pleasures of the
occasion. The church was filed to
over-fowing with deeply interested
audience. The usual exercises were
gone through with in manner highly
creditable to all concerned. The sing
ing especially was excellent, thanks to
the excellent management of Mr.. Nit
chell. The reports of the Superinten-
dent and Treasurer spoke volumes in
favor of Sabbath Schools, and especial
ly the prosperity of this one. This
school gives annually large sum to.
wards the support of a missionary
among the heather OF the lower coun-
ties.
Rev. Mr.. Roe, Secretary of American
Christian Commission addressed the
children, with interesting reminiscent
ces of life in the Paris sewers and per-
sonal recollections of army life with an
application to the spiritual wants of the
little ones.
The feature of the occasion was the
distribution of prizes-a number recei-
wing these stimuli to increased exer
ton, ranging from beautiful bible,
for the recitation of all the catechism
from memory to small card in wal
nut frame, with motto, for reciting the
Apostles Creed. It,was a notable fac,
that most of the largest prizes were car
ried off by the smaller children.
The manner in which the pulpit was
ornamented with flowers reflects great
credit on the committee of arrange
ments. The Superintendent looked as
if he was preserved in 'fowers-packed
away in them so that the moths could
not come ga near" him. He seems to
be a olive man." Judging from his
manner in conducting the school, and
ought to keep without resort to any
such preservative measures. A little
excitement was raised by young man
in the gallery being seized with con-
vulsion. All the attention was given tt
him, and the disorder was quieted.

5@~ Yesterday evening about nine
o'clock, after a day remarkable for its
loneliness and beauty, in striking con-
trast with the great heat and sultriness
of the previous three days, suddenly
the auroral light shone forth clear and
bright. The auroral arch spanned the
heavens from northeast to northwest
at $50 o'clock, its vortex being on the
magnetic meridian, and about Is de-
grees above the horizon. A number of
streamers shot upward toward the
zenith, while one or two meteors darted
rapidly toward the arch.

neA- In little less than a month from
now the Fourth of July will be here.
1t comes this year on Sunday, SO that
the day will be celebrated on Saturday
or Monday-most likely the latter. In
many places, arrangements are already
being made for celebrating the day in
an appropriate manner. What do our
citizens intend to do in the matter !?
We are of the opinion that a good old
fashioned roaring celebration would be
a good thing here. Who has the enter
prise to inaugurate such a movement {

Bag How TO INCREASE THE GRowTH
AND PROSPERITY OF OUR CITY.-The
true secret of the growth of any place
is mainly owing to the inducements
and encouragement held out to strangers
Ato settle among them. Encourage active
and worthy men, whether they have
money or not. Their labor alone is
worth money. Stimulate every legiti-
mate enterprise by giving it all the
friendly aid in our power. Cultivate q
public spirit and help your neighbor, if
he is in danger of breaking down help
him up. If he gets fairly down before
you know his situation set him ON his
feet again, his misfortune is to be pitt
ed, not blamed, and his talents and
labor are worth money to the commune
ty. Besides it may some day be our
turn to need corresponding sympa-
thy. Let us speak well of our neighbors.
Talk well and encouragingly of our city,
OF its growth, its prospects, its advan-
tages. and in short, everything likely
to advance its prosperity.

ing, and was committed for examinas
ton, charged with an attempt to kill
his wife, having assaulted her violently
and fired two shots at her from a pis-
toll. Mrs. Hardy appeared at the Po-
lice Station yesterday morning, and
made the complaint against her hus-
band, alleging that at late hour, on
Saturday evening, he returned to his
home, and commenced to beat her,
threatening to take her life if she did
not leave the house. She ran away,
fearing that his threat would be put in
execution, and securing the assistance
of Mr.. Clement, gentleman residing
in the vicinity, she soon returned, hop
ing to quiet him. He became more abu-
sive and violent than before. and drove
them from the house, firing two shots
at the woman as she passed out. Nei-
Their took effect, however, and the wo-
man was uninjured, except by the
blows she had received before she had
left the house.

MOI tq1aIeu Dy any N tne MARKET ALSO, agent for
BOYNTON'S ELEVATED OVEN RANGE

This and beautiful Range which has Just
been completed, is now offered to the public the
most complete convenient and desirable Elevated
Oven Range in the market and is the result of long
experience in the manufacture and setting of Cook
ing Ranges and we do not hesitate in recommend
ing it the nearest to perfection of any Elevated
Oven Range in the country.
We will enumerate some of the peculiar advan-
tages this Range possesses
First-It is more beautiful in form and design
than any other pattern.
Second-It has much larger hot place Surface
for Boilers and Stew Pans, affording larger. accom-
modations for Cooking purposes.
Third-It has a smaller Fire Chamber, and burns
less coal than any other pattern of Elevated Oven
Range, for the simple that the fire chamber
is entirely surrounded with fire brick instead of
open CRATE in front and water back in the rear,
forming two sides of the fire las in all other pattern
ranges) both of which chill and deaden the fire and
detract largely from the power, and make it abso-
lutely necessary to burn larger amount of fuel.
Fourth-The body of this Range is higher than
other patterns, and is more like the French Kitch-
eners, making it much more convenient and easy
for the cook.
Fifth-The hot closets are more accessible,
placed in natural position (being in the body of
the Range) instead of above the ovens, in other
patterns.
Sixth-The ovens do not project over the boiling
surface to make it announcement in removing
the boilers, as in other patterns.
Seventh-There are better arrangements for
veying the steam to chimney5 and controlling the
draft, than most ranges.
Eighth-The ovens bake more evenly, have
a return flue the top of the oven (which is the
point that most often fals,) thus securing perfect
baking oven on the top as well as ON the bottom.
Ninth-The flues in this range are all complete in
themselves, that it is unnecessary to form them
of brick (which absorbs the heat1 and makes the
setting of them much more simple and sure.
Tenth-The water back can be removed and the
plumbing work be repaired, if necessary, with
out disturbing the brick work.
