ExHrBrTIoN AT NEWARK TUESDAY EVENING.
" The Presbyterian congregation at Newark tore
down their old and dilapidated building some
months ago and have since been worshiping in
the oratory Of Delaware College. They imme-
diately commenced the erection of new and
handsome edifice in the upper part of the town,
but their funds running out, were compelled to
suspend work. Efforts are now being made to
raise sufficient money to pay the outstanding
debt, and finish the building. The walls built
Of stone, are up, the roof on, and the floor laid.
The young ladies' Of Newark determined to do
their share in the good work, gave an interesting
tableaux entertainment last evening, and will
give another this evening, in the new building.
A fine stage was erected and the other arrange

were gotten up in style which reflected great
credit on the managers. We think scene from
Moores "Lalla Rookh' deserving Of especial
mention, the performers acquitting themselves
very creditably.
The room was crowded to Overlooking by
large and appreciative audience the ladies' reatiz-
ing handsome sum-

This Is very timely present. The money value
OF the donation amounts to between $4,000 and $4,000
and becomes of greater significance when coupled
with the fact, that Messrs. Mason & Hamlin have
been unable to answer the cash orders for their In

adds to worship at home 1t is Of greater value in the
foreign field in giving interest to religious services
