The Old North Church,

A Memorable Occasion in Its History
The Farewell Reception to n
Loved Pastor.
Last was q memorable evening for the old
North church and society which will SO soon
become officially known by q new name. The
PASTORS parting reception given by the
ladies was made most happy one. At LIZ

began to assemble and beforea quarter past

the gas burners lenta roseate hue to all the
three rooms, in keeping with the profuse yet
careful and elegant display of jopanicas,

beautiful variety. A bed of most artistic

were introduced or led up to the pastor, his
bride and their five children the two Misses
Halves and three boys. The silver wedding
celebration made all go as merry as a mar
riage bell No sound or circumstance inter
rupted the good time. The refreshment
room drew off 8 large number about
nine and q half o'clock, yet still
SO large was the number present the parlors
scanned as full as before. Ample refresh
ments of meats, sandwiches, cake in endless
varsity and excellence, coffee and. abundance
of Zoe cream of the choicest make and flavor.
Old and young were equally interested and
delighted till about eleven p. m. The num-
Der was about two hundred and fifty. They
would not stay counted. All the rooms In
the house upstairs and down were filed.
Professor Cyrus Northrop. and the Rev.
Messrs. Noyes and Ogden were noticed
among the sprinkling of invited guests. The
busy hum of joy was only interrupted to be
enhanced by the pause while the pastor in
voked q blessing on the farewell
but joyous gathering in reyerent and most
fitting and impressive words of thanks and
gratitude to God the giver of all.
The songs ard piano accompaniment by
the church choir were excellent and of the
first order, as might be expected for such an
occasion. Mr.. Charles s. DeForest contrib
uted two solos to the occasion and Miss Allie
Fechter, niece of the late eminent TRACE
dian Fechter, residing on Clark street. sang
also. Mr.. Beach, the musical director, ac-
Miss Feehter also played very

yersing SO outnumbered the listeners that
the stream of mutual pleasure flowed on I'M
checked and enlivened by the music.

Taman1eb Taken-A Victory Easily Won
by the English.
SUAKIM, March 27.-The forces under
General Graham commenced the advance on
the rebel position at Tamanieb at O'Clock
this morning, but met with no serious oppo-
sition until 1880 o'clock, when brisk fire
was opened upon the British troops by the
rebels who were strongly entrenched behind
newly erected stone work. The cavalry
and mounted infantry were ordered to charge
on the rebels, and with the aid of q few
shells sent over into the rebel camp, the
mounted forces succeeded in dispensing the
rebels who quickly fed, much to the surprise
of the British troops who expected stub
born resistance. The British troops burned
the village and destroyed the surrounding
works. General Graham will probably
return to Suakim tonight. as il is thought
this latest rout of the forces under Osman
Digna will dispeI the delusion of the sheihs
as to Osman Digna receiving divine aid and
virtually ends the campaign In this section OF
the Soudan. No casualties are reported
among the British troops. There was
slight preliminary cavalry skirmish yester-
day, which the English easily won. The
English troops suffered terribly from the
heat during the advance.
