WESTON, May 90.

Editor Democrat.
On Sunday last your correspond
ent, in company with a good many
ofour townsmon, enjoyed the pleas,
ure Of attending the dedicatory
services of Harmony Church, on
Hackers Creek, in this county.
The sermon of Rev. Lewis, Of
Baltimore, in the forenoon, is in
deed worthy Of special notice, talk
ing into consideration the youth
fulncss of this young minister.
Suffice it, however, to say, that his
sermon was logical aud fluent, and
that he did great credit to himself.
The new church is neat and sutii-
GENTLY commodious for the people
OF the rich and populous Hackers
Creek Valley, and is located at a
point very near the main road, at
the foot Of the hill below the old
church.
On account OF the great con-
course OF people, your correspond
snt was unable to obtain admission
into the church to hear the dsdica-
tory sermon, but those who heard
Rev. Mr.. MCGOWAN, who preached
this sermon, expressed themselves
as highly pleased with the same.
In the afternoon, Rev. 80.
preached very ably to a large con-
gregation in the grove near tho old
church on Tho mount.
Before the dedication Of the
church it was necessary TO raise the
sum of $2S7, the balance ofthe in
debtedness thereon. To a call for
this amount, the numerous and
cheerful givers promptly and liber-
ally responded, and in very short
time the church was free from
debt and ready for dedication.
It's estimated that there were
between seven hundred and n
thousand people present.
To speak Of the courtesy and
generosity Of the Hackers Creek
people to visitor would scarcely
be necessary, for it is to a great ex-
tent attributable to- these commen-
dable qualities that our people arc
always SO ready to enjoy such op-
portuaities as was presented on
last: II is difficult for one
TO determine Of whose inequalities
to partake, on accounted the many
invitations. The people Of that Vi
cinity came prepared toaccomme-
date all who attended.
May we have tile pleasure of at
tending a similar association before
a great while.

cd them and elected to congress a msiorty of
seventy-six Democrats. This rebuke caused
them to suspend operations for the third
