That was no less disappointment to the average

striving for market upon which their e snort
sales may be renewed at profit Oh the prices NJ

market had worked naturally for an hour or 80 and
prices had declined from q to u per cent there was
renewal Of duplication Of orders to purchase ana
prices were rapidly restored to opening figures.
Later on special stocks were selected leaders of
the market, and the application of stimuli
lants continued during the whole
day. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western was
one of tho stocks which was regarded as safe one
to for influence on the general market, and It's
price, by purchaser. sales and repurchases, was
taken from 1876 s0135l to 1872 Louisville and
Nashville was stimulated by a report that an In
junction had been granted against the issue Of the

lieved to have been circulated without the slightest
foundation in fact but 1t served its purpose, al
though second sober thought upon the subject
would have satisfied operators that In
the condition of the companys finances such an ac-
ton would prove embarrassing to the company.
The improvement extended to the entire list but as
the large operators secretly engaged III sup

buyers of Others, tho final gains show
considerable rreguarity. While all of this up-and-
down speculation is going at the Stock Exchange

These, however, factors which Will assert their
influence later. The market closed strong as to
prices but with demand which was concentrated
in wOuld-be sellers of stocks.

| Dedac 0t&o n.-Pursuant to announcement
| heretofore made, the new Methodist church al
MT. Scion was solemnly dedicated to the SER
vice OF God on Sunday the 2Sth inst. The
largest concourse of citizens and strangers
that we have seen in the village were in atten.
dance on the interesting occasion. The ca
pacity of the church, which is about four hun
bred, was taxed to Its utmost, and large con-
gregation had to remain outside for want of
room. We think there were not less than six
hundred persons present. The dedicatorv
sermon, which was exceedingly interesting,
was delivered by the Rev. DR.. Armstrong, of
Harrisonburg, by whom also the dedicatory
services were performed The Revs. David
Bush, senior preacher, and his junior, Mr..
Hildebrand were present. Prior to the dedi-
cation Mr.. Armstrong called the attention OF
the congregation to the admirable arrange
ment and furnishing of the edifice, and in
formed them that Notwithstanding the large
amount of work and material contributed
gratuitously by many willing hands, and the
liberal aid otherwise afforded by generous do
nations, there yet remained debt against the
church of about four hundred dollars Several
gentlemen were requested to wait on the con-
gregation and take subscriptions and money
to liquidate the debt, which was fully con-
trIbuted in the next forty minutes after which
the church was formally dedicated, Mr.. J. W.
Hope, in behalf of the building committee,
presenting the church free of debt. The paint
ing, plastering, and masonry were done by
Messrs. Switzer. Murray and Kelly, of Mt
Crawford, and fully yindicate their claims as
good workmen in their respective callings-
The joiners' work was superintendent by Capt
Webb and J. W. Hopewen.
DeGM.-A young son of Mr.. John Rimel,
near Augusta Springs, was buried at Mt. Zion
on last Thursday after very brief illness, as
we learn, of cerebro-spinal meningitis.
