ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIBLE SOCIETY,"
The slXty-siXth anniversary OF the Virginia
Bible Society was held on Sunday, April
9th, at d L. NJ, in the Second Presbyterian
church, in the presence vi 4 very large con-
creyation. Rev. DR.. Hoge presided. The
exercises were opened with an appropriate
hymn by the choir. Rev. DR.. Jeter offered
prayer. A portion Of Scripture was read
by the President. Rev. DR.. ,Judkins read
the report OF the Board of Managers, pub
listed in yesterdays Dispatch.
| DR.. lloge then, in very fcltctouS man
ner, after expressing regrets that General
Field was prevented by State business from
| filing his promise to make one Of the adj
dresses, introduced Professor Noah X. Da-
Wis, OF the University OF Virginia, to the
audience, as The speaker OF the occasion.
Professor Davis, beInga layman, address
ed himself especially to the laymen. 1t
was the duty of the minister TO 90 and
preach; it was the duty Of the laymen 10
| send. His theme was ''Thc Duty and the
| Reward Of Distributing the ScriptnreS.'
! TIE address was pronounced by many rs
one OF The ablr>t ever delivered on such IN
| occasion, and WAS listened to with profound
attention from beginning TO the end. We
| hope TO see it IN print.
After the address Or. IICee stated that
according 10 the plans and policy OF the So
cictv his term OF Cflicc, which lie had held
| four wears. would expire at The close OF the
present meeting. He referred very touch
ingIv to the great work which the Society
! had accomplished during his term OF office
under the greatest financial distress ever cN-
| pcricnccd in the history OF this country: to
the kind, che criul, and hearty cooperation
OF all the members OF the Board; and the
very pleasant relations he had sustained to
the Board as member and a> IN officer FOR
the many years that are past. In taking
leave as the president it gave him great
Measure to introduce one who had been
elected 10 fill the office for the ensuing four
wears as peculiarly fitted by his long eXpc-
ricncc rs an executive officer in deliberatife
bodies for this new position. This gentle
man was Bishop Doggctt. He hoped and
trusted that as u new era OF prosperity was
about to dawn upon the State, the Society,
under The new administration, would ac-
compIish greater results in the future than
in the past.
j. Bishop Doggett, in assuming the chair,
paid a most beautiful compliments 20 The able
manner in which DR.. Iogc had always pre-
sided, and the marvellous success which,
under the greatest cmbarrasSmcntS and
financial distress, had attended the efforts OF
the Society. In entering upon the new
duties lie asked the sympathy and co0Dcra
ton OF all the friends of the Bible in tht
great work OF the Society. The Fir@iDi;
Bible Society is doing, he said. work
which no other organization is doing or car
do. bishop Doggett then promo c"d the

On the subject of finances, after review
ing the operations in the offices Of Auditor

the Mayor says: BY the limitation in the
city charter bonds can only be Used to the
extent Of Sj,l37.1S2. The present issue
amounts TO S4,469.345, and hence the mar
gin for the future is SG67,S37. II is to be
hoped that this margin may continue 10 in

to value OF taxable real estate; certainly
there should not be enlargement Of the
bonded debt except on urgent necessity.
At any rate, the present rate OF taxation
which suStains this gratifying financial eX-
hibit is very moderate as compared with
many other cities, as will be seen by the fol-
