Our attention has been called to . neY cooking
.uteasil, recentiy invented, which makes baking .
pleasure, instead Of dreaded Necessity; tho In.
vensor Of which has ccneeFred An everlasting
blessing upon every housekeepef. We refer to
the Patent Centennial Cake and Bread Pan, with
which by simply raising hook, you can remove
the sides Of the pan from the cake instantly,
without breaking or injuring il in the least thus
enabling you to ice and frost il while warm, To
remove the tube in the center, insert a knife in
the slot in the top ofthe tube, and simply give
il half turn, and Il will drop out. 1t Is also
provided with q slide on the bottom, so that
when you remove the tube, you can close the
hole, making pan with plain bottom, baking
jelly aud plain cakes, pudding, bread. ETC., Ass
practically sirins yos tso pans yor the price Of
one.
The Centennial Cake Pan Is highly recommend
ed BY the ladies as being the best and most con-
venient pan ever introduced. They are made Of
Russia iron, are more dxrable, and sril bake yoss
cakes more .reniy and a ~sch nicer 5rors than
you can bake thea IN The old Tin eake pans.
These goods are sold exclusively through agents
to families, and every housekecper should by all
means have them. A splendid opportunity il
offered to some reliable lady OF gentleman cam
vasser Of this county TO secure the agency for .
pleasant and profitable business. For terms, ter
ritory etc., write to l.. b. Brown D Co., Nos.

.Nrssrs. Editors II regret that your
issue Of the 9th ult., containing DR..
Sutton's card. did not reach me in time
to reply in the BEACON Of last week.
Although entitled 10 reply, had con.
e'uded TO let the subject end with the
DIS card, as am not one 10 inns gine
that he who gets The last word always
gains the victory in the field Of con,ro-
versy, and knowing that in all contro-
versies each disputant is fond of having
the last word, and that it is impossible
for both parties to be gratificd IN this un-
reasonable desire. But to the point.
AS the DR.. seems TO have misconstrued
my writings, I beg leave to say few
words on the subject. In my article Of
Aug. "3rd, had reference only 10 To-
cal affairs when speaking Of the "disci-
plinc which heretofore prevailed in the
republican ranks and endeavored by
my preceding remarks to show the lubric
folds by which the serpent of republi.
eanism s.rangled infant reason and en-.
'w'ned the preludiees OF the illiterate.
In my article of the 18th ult. / said -
Tina, division and di>,rust appear in
nearly every section of the countrv
where this party has the aseendeney."
Admitting that the repn6lieans have the
a,eendenoy in this county (which I am
rot wiling to concedel I think since

Church Entertainments.
Though not as large an attendance was pres
ent at the ST. Andrews entertainment ON We'd
nesday Of last week as had been expected and
provided for, we are pleased to learn that II vas
q success at all other points aud thata handsome
sum was realized by the ladies in charge, to
whom we take this occasion to make our acknowi-
edgmcnts for remembering US by an acceptable
present of most delicious cake.
The st. Johns dinner on Saturday last was
also srarsely attended, but the good shings on
hand were largely drafted on by the gentlemen
present, who appeared to think they were called
upon to represent all absentees and were compli-
menting the lady managers by eating about
twice a. much As usual. We were sandwiched at
table between our friends r. F., Of Leonasdtovn
and F. s., Of St. Inigoes', aud We know whereof

only able ourselves TO partakc Of baked duck,

as these were not forthcoming, in dispair We aban-
doned our two friends who, when last heard
from, were still eating.
