Letter from Parnassus.

The Sunday School Picnic of the NJ.
E. Church at Parnassus, was held at the
Methodist Camp ground on the farm of
Mr.. }. A. WhitmUre on the 9Th inst
The day was pleasant, the Picnic well
attended, aud the occasion an enjoyable
one. Four ministers were present and
favored the audience with some apprO-
pirate remarks, at the conclusion of
which dinner was served. The tables
were decorated with flowers, and the
superabundance of rich viands was taste
fully arranged by the good, Methodist
ladies, and cOpiously distributed among
all. Snaps, tho late in the season, com.
posed a ragout and were not considered
immature. However, there was one OF
gigantic dimensions somewhat withered
from the pernicious effects of Cupid's
dart, and consequently was dispatched,
but having regained its wOnted vivacity,
was brought back when every thing
was groVing still and will be served on
another occasion. Mr.. J. A. Whitmore,
the Superintendent of the School, and
Mr.. j. A. Hamrick merit praise for the
faithful performances of every incumbent
duty actuated by noble impulse, they
made the least, the greutest-Mr. j. H.
Silling, of the firm of Hamrick & Co.,
is in Baltimore, and fine stock of
choice goods is expected in few days.
The reigning bellies of our community
have not sat down to weep like Alex
ander, because there are no more worlds
to conquer, but have gone forth like
Columbusin guest of the Bahamas. Mrs.
Wilson, formerly Miss Kate Rhodes of
Augusta county, died on the 10th ult.,
at her home in Pocahontas. Her re-
mains were inferred in the graveyard
at ParnassuS on the 10Th.
She was we'll known among us as a
teacher and christian lady.
She loved, she served, she honored God
From childhood to the tomb,
And now she's safely housed in Heaven.
Where fIdeess flowers bloom.

OF this Fund was held in New York last
week
The annual report says: "The year

ening the labors of men on whom the
vitality of the system depends is more
dangerous experiment than is general.
