THE Pottsville journal relates the
following, which we re-publish, though
it sounds rather ancient: yesterday
morning Mr.. VIM. Shuman, grocer, of
this borough, placed upon our table a
pear grown the present season upon a
tree 1O5 years old on the premises ofhis
father, John Shuman, at E5py, Scott
township, Columbia county. The tree
has borne fruit every year during this
period, and may he pronounced a
veteran in the service. The specimen of
its fruit shown us is splendid one, aud
would indicate that the old tree was
good for many more years service"

Last evening the anniversary of the New York
Friends First Day School Association took place, at
Rutherford place. The audience was quite large,
and was presided over by E1lngham Cock. The
report Of the Board of Managers was received
and was most favorable in its account OF the pres
ent condition OF the 'First Day Schools" New

classes, and the interest and zeal manifested in
them was stated to be very great and con-
stantly increasing. A committee was then ap-
pointed to nominate a new Board Of Managers
for the year. Its report was duly approved.
William Dorsey then addressed the meet
ing. He said that the 'First Day School
movement" was extending rapidly through the
Church, and there appeared to be more freshness Of
interest, more disposition TO let alone speculative
differences than ever before. II had seemed at
one time that the Church vas select society,
whose work was wholly finished, 50 rs to have
were more alive to subjects of live and progressive
lie then referred to the children in the South and
their need OF proper religious education, and sug
gestcd the establishment for them OF Sabbath
schools. They were hungry to learn He con-
cluded by remarkng that opposition to the innova-
ton was dying out, and the conservatives, even,
were becoming favorable TO their work.
Other interesting addresses were delivered and
after the transaction of the routine business the
Association ado urned until next year.

DECORATION DAY.

To-day will witness demonstrations all over this
broad land In honor OF our dead heroes, and where
ever the ashes of Union soldiers sleep flowers will be
strewed upon their graves, and the living, with
songs and elegant panegyrics, will testify to the
undying love and remembrance inspired by the
sacrifices OF the war. These pageants, simple as
they are, are singularly impressive to thoughtful
man, and though little different from ordinary
prosaic fashion of public displays they emlnently
in consonance with the spirit that makes up the
national life Of the republic. Z, ~
Here In New York the demonstrations will oc-
cupy the whole day. At balfpast nine in the morn
ing procession win form in Union square, 1t will
be headed by $50 children from the Union Home and
School, for whose convenience number OF wagons,
which will be covered with nags and adorned with
flowers, will be provided. Following the children
will come about eight hundred or a thousand mem.
bers of the Grand Army of the Republic under
whose auspices the ceremonies are to be carried
out committee will, as the procession files
round the statues OF Lincoln and Washington deco
rate these monuments with bouquets. The next
hating place will be Phil Kearneys grave in Trinity
churchyard, which Will be similarly hOnorcd. The
progress down Broadway may be imagined From
every window in this grand highway OF commercial
palaces eyes, moist with ine1aceablc recollectons
of suffering and loss, will gaze upon the moving
band Of surviving soldiers OF the republic. En-
barking at South ferry the procession will proceed
to East New YORK, where 1t Will be joined by the
Brooklyn posts OF the Grand Army. The united
professions will then march TO the cemetery and
the usual ceremonies be held Its principal features
Grafton by Professor Noah Schenck, the sing
ing OF hymns by the children and the decoration of
the four thousand graves.
In the evening there will be memorial services at
the Academy OF Music in New York. and at Tall
madge's Tabernacle in Brooklyn. The list OF ora
tors Is appetizing, and all loyal men who may at
tend will enjoy not only the consciousness OF hav-
ing performed duty, but the pleasure OF an intel
lectual treat In the afternoon there will also be
parade Of the National Guard In honor OF the day
Among the demonstrations outside OF New York
that at Binghamton deserves notice. Not only will
the graves of the dead be decorated, but statue
which has been erected to the memory OF the

Farewell OF the Irish Delegates.
The new Bishops are taking their turn as presid-

having led of Monday, Bishop Harris on Tuesday
and Bishop Foster yesterday. Dr. Cyrus d. Foss led
the devotions, and after the approval OF the journal
the telers, who were out Tuesday at the hour OF
adjournment, announced the result OF the third
ballot for editor Of the Ladies Repository, which
gave Rev. DR.. Marley l57, Mr.. McAuley 1O5, DR..
wentworth 60 and b. f. Crary, 80. None Of these
having received the requisite number for a choice
Qsi another ballot was taken, which gave DR..
McAuley 17s, DR.. Wentworth l31 and DR.. Marley 10.
The latter, after this announcement, withdrew, and
the contest was carried on then between Drs. Nc
Auley and wentworth. The next ballot gave DR..
McAuley 1885, lacking vote of election; DR.. Went
worth got ISL.
Several committees reports were presented-one
from the Episcopacy, approving OF the Bishops adj
ministration during the last four years. The COM
mittee say they are profoundly impressed with the
embarrasments which surrounded both the Bishops
and the Book Committee in the investigation Of
THE BOOK coNcEEN TROUBLES
and the trial OF DR.. Lanahan. They therefore con-
Guided, first, that the Bishops properly defined
their relation to the Book Committee as O concur

should be absolved from all responsibility for the
proceedings prior to their connection with It;
third that only the ofical conduct (of DR.. Lana
han) subject to investigation by this tribunal,
and not immoral conduct as such, but that immo-
ralty may be shown to prove disqualification for
