plished so much good in the past year, celebra-
ted on last Tuesday night its first Anniversary
The occasion was a great success from begin.
ming to end, and was greatly enjoye ed by the
large audience in attendance,
The singing, under the direction of Mr.. John
w. Abby, assisted by DIR. Brown and other am.
ateurs, with Prof. Joel Ettinger as organist, was
simply grand.

citation, delivered his famous lecture on "stone-
wall Jackson's Valley Campaign" Those pres
emit who had heard him deliver the lecture be-
fore, said that he excelled himself on this occa-
sion. large portion of the audience was COM
posed of old soldiers OF, the Stonewall Brigade
and some of them remarked, at the close of the
lecture, that SO accurate, vivid, and lucid were
his statements and illustrations, that they felt
as if they had just emerged once more from
that memorable campaign.
After few timely and lively remarks by
Messrs. Hoover, Hamilton and Nelson, of the
Staunton Association, the audience adjourned
to the Greenville Hotel, where the ladies of the
town and neighborhood had furnished for the
benefit of the Association as grand and ele-
CANT supper as mortal ever sat up to. There
were pigs (roasted whole,) turkeys, ducks
chickens, beef, mutton, salads. pickles, and
oysters in abundance, and lots of other things
winding up with cakes and custards, as was re-
marked, "of every hue and cry.' If everybody
who sat down to that supper did not get valu,
received for his outlay of fifty cents, it was thu
fault of his own capacity. and let him say 81
now or forever hereafter hold his peace.
This Association. SO successful in the past, il
bound to prosper as long as it has such help
mates as the ladies of that vicinity. This en-
tertainment, so pleasant and enjoyable, hal
given the members of the Association stimu
lus and renewed zeal for the beginning of an
other years work in this holy cause, which
will be gratifying to all who watch with inter
est the growth of this Association.
