several adjoining counties. After the speaker
OF moderator, called the representatives to ORDER
lef'ent prayer was Ofltred-hymn sung-and an
excellent sermon by Rev. Green Miles officers
were elected, and the letters from the churches
were read. These letters exhibit the spiritual
ana temporal status of the various organizations,
the numbers baptised, received by letter, dismiss
ed, excluded and deceased during the year, sab
Dtth school statistics, and the amounts raised
iT all benevolent purposes. These people are
balidllg quite number Of new church edfces,
70 accommodate their Increasing congregations.
and their letters allude quite plainly to the
scarcity OF the Almighty Dollar
some OF these letters were long, and when
read by slow laymcn, consume much valuable
time.
Just think Of the assembled Solous, or S0lonous
Di an ecclesiastical congress- listening to the
reading Of 40 long letters of detail. while four.
hiths OF the audience are ladies with no new
fashions to crificise and who might be recipients
d much valuable instruction from the Spurgrons
lhu beechcrs of the present occasion. Bat the
hoAot0ny oi detail is broken. One of the lead
rs started ''ill hail the power of Jesus name"
he electric spark passed through the whole
mass. All was radiencc and praise. Wonder
l GLORIOUS old "c0rsnGfi0H'' will be sung up
'onder, in the realms of bliss! Wonder if all
hese pastors, laymen and ladies will be there,
ma JOIN IN that serIphic symhonyl Wonder
you and l, Mr.. Editor, and the printers devil
gill be there?
The delegations were well entertained, and
uly appreciated the kindness and hospitality of
he Muncy brethren and sisters. E.

SERIOUS RUSAwAY.-On Wednesday morning,
whilst Mr.. Adam Fisher was hurry!ng up lis
horse TO avoid being run over by shifting en-
gine at the railroad crossn" on the east side Of
the depot at this place, he lost his hold Of one Of
the check lines, and of course the control Of his
team. The horses started off at a fearful rate
and did not stop until hey reached the stone
bridge at Granger's Hollow. The wagon struck
the second arch in the West Branch bridge,
wrecked the wagon box and threw Mr.. Fisher
out. From the fearful wounds he received he
must have been dragged some distance. He was
picked up in an nscnsibic condition, and carried
out Of the bridge on plank. His scalp was cut
open four or five inches. the fesh over the left
eye was laid open to the bone, aud he received =
punctured wound in the left thigh. DIR. Stoner
was called in and rendered the necessary surgical

An entertainment WAS given in Garinger's Hall
on Friday, Saturday and Wednesday evenings
last. which wns of more than ordinary interest.
The performance consisted of the exercise of Il
power invisible and incomprehensbc to all who
witnessed it. Mr.. and Mrs. Guernella were the
performers. They do not believe in spiritual ma
nfestatons, but they cannot account for the
power that aids them in performing their aston
isBing tricks. They were piniOned in every i'm
Imaginable manner by committee appointed by
the audience, and after cXtngIishing the lights
for probably minute or two, they were found
TO be united, and the ropes were neatly coied
up. Iron rings were placed around the arms OF
the lady, locked together, and the key held by
the committee Darkness was again produced
for n very short time, when the same rings We're
found on the arms of her husband who was
standing several feet from her, securely locked
az they had been upon her. Afterwards the
lights were again extinguished, and the rings
and chain dropped from his arms upon the floor.
Many other wonderful feats were performed,
such as invisible handshskiug. Mr.. q. was Sc
curey tied and gagged by the committee, and
the lights were turned down, when he imme-
dately commenced singing and playing upon a
parlor organ When the lights again appeared
Mr. G.. was found in the bound and gagged con-
ditIou in which the committee had placed him.
The last trick performed, invisible and incom-
prehcnsible, was that the parties announced their
last performance on Thursday evening, and left
on Thursday morning in the first train, leaving
their printers bill at this office unpaid, prompted
TO do so probably through spiritual manifesto
tions.

SHOT HIMSELF. - On Tuesday last J0ta, a
young son Of John Bourne, Esq, OF Walnut
street, aged about IA years, went on n cunning
expedition across the river, and on his return, in
pulling his gun from the boat with the muZzlc
towards him. the trigger caught and dis
charged the gun, the load Of shot taking effect
in one Of bis arms, tcaru" away large piece Of
flesh above the elbow. No bones were shattered.
He narrowly escaped death. The careless hand
ling CT fire arms in the useless amusement Of
hunting game. is tie cause Of as much manning
and death. to the hunter and those who happen TO
stand in his way, as is the more useful employ
ment OF raiIroadiug. This is another warning
among hundreds Published yearly, against care
lessness in handling firearms. We understand
Master Bourne is doing well under the care Of
DR.. c. NJ. Martin who dressed the wound.

ST. CLOUD IIoTEI.-PhiladclPliia Is not as IA
nous for the number and size Of it5 hotels as
New York and some Of our western cities. But
the largest hotels are not generally the most de-
sirable. One Of the best and most comfortable
hotels in Philadelphia is the st. Cloud, in Arch
street. 1t justly ranks a5 a first class house in
all its appointments, and in some Of its home
comforts is unequallcd by any in the city. Mr..
Mullin, the proprietor, is affable, polite and
attentive, and his corps Of able assistants among
whom is Harry Dcnnison as Chief manager, is a
sufficient guarantee that it is well kept. The ST..
Cloud, though comparatively a new hotel, is al
ready one ofthe most popular IN the city.
