rust and premature decay of the season
At this writing there has been no

SUNDAY SCHOOL OELEBRATION AT
MANNING.
The 9th of October will long be re-
membered, we are persuaded, by the
good people Of the quiet village Of
Manning and its surroundings. We
heard it from many lips, that it was the
occasion of the largest gathering OF the
kind the. Manning mud over seen.
The Prcsbyterians, Baptists and Metho.
dists all united, for miles round, in a
Sabbath School Celebration. Between
two and three hundred children-lovely
girls and bright eyed boys, the hope OF
country-were marshalled in procession,
under the inspiring music of the bcauti,
full hymn, "The children arc gathering
from near aud from far" 1t was a lovely
sight.
Addresses were delivered by Rev. D.
W. CUTTING, Rev. JAS. MCDOWELL
and by A. A. GILBERT, and table one
hundred aud thirty feet in length was
sumptuously spread in the fine grove of
the Presbyterian Church yard.
But that We had expected satisfac-
tory account of this charming day, we
should have noticed it in our last, and
but that We still expect it, we should
now write moro at length.
We shall long remember the warm
greeting and generous courtesy ex-
tended to us.
