Mr.. EDITOR THE Kingwood M. +. Sab
bath School held their Annual Picnic near the
Church. in II. p. Cullins grove, ON Wednes-
day last. The attendance was fair, n0twith-
standing the threatening weather. After a
bountiful dinner, which the Kingwood folks
know how to get up SO well, they were adj
dressed in neat speech by the Rev. Mr.. Jack
son. of SergeantsvilIe. This was followed by
another by Rev. Mr.. Jameson, which was ra-
ther brief but to the point. The ice cream was
excellent, and the music charming. II was
interesting to see so many young people at
work In the Sunday School.
We understand that the old Kingwood
Church is out of debt, and in a very flourish
ing condition, under the Manifestations Of Rev.
Mr.. Jameson, who, by the way, is young
man of considerable talent, and greatly loved
by his congregation. After a pleasant day Of
enjoyment the company dispersed to their

THE METHODIST CHURCH IN New Hope
The members of the Methodist Church in
New Hope have commenced the erection of a
new edifice something which they have sadly
needed for a long time, the present edifice be-
ing dilapidated and out-Of-the-way. The 10
cation of the new building is on River street,
opposite Cooks hardware store. The size is
A 20 feet, with lecture rooms and class
rooms under the main audience room. 1t is
designed to seat about 400. The material will
be either brick or stone-whch, has not yet
been decided on. The cellar walls have been
put up by that excellent master mason, Peter
S. Nayler, and we presume he will complete
the job at any rate no better workman can
be found to do it. Capt. Jas. Bird, of this
city, is the architect, which assures to our
friends across the river neat, substantial and
comfortable house of worship.
The corner stone of the edifce win he laid
next Tuesday afternoon, Oct ist, with appro-
pirate services. Rev. D. w. Baftine, d. D.,
of Jersey City, will preach the sermon, and
addresses are expected from others.

Mn EDrTon An accident took place about
a mile below this place, to-day, by which Mr..
William Thatcher, Of LambcrtviIe, was thrown
from his sulkey by q voting horse which he
was driving. The sulkey was upset, and the
horse, having an enlarged idea of freedom,
severed his bonds and made bee-line for Mt.
Pleasant. After running some two miles, and
while endeavoring foolishly to jump over
four-mule lime team, he was caught by val
liant O'Conner Democrat, who handed him over
to our friend, George Hoppock, of Rosemont,
who kindly assisted Mr.. Thatcher in unllarness-
ing the "long-lcgged varnint." Nobody hurt.
