Opera Honse. We copy the following 10 re-.
gard to the lecture and the the spe ,ker
Rev. Wm. D. Culliss, from the Sersutou Re-
publican of late date:
The lecturer on ascending the platform
was greeted with loud applsuse. He COM
menced his lecture by sort Of wsll-mads
apology for the commonplace character o.
the subject and then launched forth 10 q
brilliant and successful effort TO show there
was no necessity for any reference to the
common place.

methods Of wording appearances He then
referred to the frequent habit Of Judging by
appearances, showing how very uncertain .
method 1t WAS and giving sous examples ol
mistakes made by judging according to this
rule. The efforts to keep up appearance 10
dress were next the subject OF humorous dis

dies came in tor large share, and the way
in which he held up to ridiouis the pr ressnt

He said that there were many re- forms need
ed 10 rs fereucc to the position Of woman,
but the most pressing and important subject
that could occupy the minds Of tho female
reformers was the question Of reform IN
dress. Fashionable men were then disposed
OF 10 maunsr not very fattering to the
species of human hollow ware. Appesianc.
es in learning respectability and ref nsmen
were then treated by the lecturer, almost

When we see precious blossom,
That we tended with such care,
Rudely taken from our bosom,
How our aching hearts despair.
Round its little grave we linger

Feeling all our hopes have persisted
With the flower we cherished so.
He shall sleep but not forever
In the lone and silent grave,
Blessed be the Lord that taketh
Blessed be the Lord that gave.

Death can never, never come,
In His own good time he'll call US,
From our rest to heaven our home.

p| OUR RA1LRoAD.-At the meet
ing of the Directors of the Shenandoah
Valley Railroad, at Charlestown, on
Tuesday of last week, Gen. Herman
Haupt, the Chief Engineer of the Com
pany, made an elaborate and interesting
speech, giving a most accurate review
of the route oftheroad through Shenan-
doah Valley and South Western Vir-
GINA to the Tennessee line, and the vast
agricultural and mineral resources along
the whole line-only awaiting the de-
velopement of the railroad to bring this
unsurpassed region to the notice Of the
whole country. He discussed the iron
interests, especially of Virginia along
the proposed route Of the road-and
pronounced them far superior in guam
tity and quality to those of Pennsylva-
MIA, which have been so great a source
of wealth and power of the Keystone
State. He also went into the subject Of
low freights and charges, as means of
certain prosperity both to the public
and to Railroads. This he demonstra-
ted had been fully realized in the chang
ed system of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
and would be one of the grand results
of competitive lines of roads through
Virginia to her public prosperity and
welfare.
