A FREAK OF THE SToRM.-During the
high winds of Sunday morning last Il singu-
lar occurrence and narrow escape from loss
of life occurred at johnson & Brothers saw
mill, nine miles west of Froslhurg. \
frame house recently built by these gentle
men, had been occupied but few days by
Mr.. Henry Knapp and family. On sun
day morning, as before stated, abont six
O'Clock, Mrs. Knapp, having arisen, leaving
all in bed, huge pine tree, blown down hy
the wind, fell upon the house, splitting it
literally in two. The bed in which Hir
Knapp was lying was nearly demolished,
though, strange to say, this gentleman cS-
capped unhurt, as did the other four mem
bcrs of the family in other portions of the
house. Beyond the fright naturally excited
and the loss of the house, the damage sus-
tanned was fortunately slight

A PLEASANT AFFAIR.-A rare treat was
given at the Presbyterian church on Tues
day evening last in the shape of Sunday
School Exhibition consisting of music and
Rotations by the scholars and members of
the school. 1t was a splendid entertain
ment. All the English pieces-dialogues
and declamations-wcr well committed
and well rendered by the parties, and judg-
ing from the conduct of those who under
stood them, the few Welsh pieces were not
behind the Others. We are sorry we could
not appreciate them. The singing by the
Sunday School Choir was superb, and the
veteran choir leader, Zephanah Jones, who
had charge of it was evidently in his Gle
ment His success was complete
Morgan Rees sang Ring the Bell Watch
man," in mastery style and the choir joined
in the chorus with decision and spirit.
Miss Diana Thomas, Sang with great
force and pathos the beautiful song, "The
Angels arc Calling John II. Thomas and
family, assisted by Morris g. Thomas sang
'Lct the Dead and Beautiful Rest" in
splendid manacr and We're yoriferously en-
cOred.
MIR. Thomas Kellow, of Hoffman, presid-
ed in his usual happy style at the organ
and gave several beautiful solos. The
thanks Of the meeting were heartily tender
ed him.
Altogether it was one Of the happicst en-
tcrtainmcnts of the kind it has been our
fortune to witness. The house was cram
med and all concerned were highly delight
cd. The Presbyterian Sunday School
knows how to get up these entertainments
and we hope soon TO have Il repetition of
this last one.
