GREAT HARRINGTON.

"A zA N
 Last Wednesday evening was a hap py time for the members of our Congre- gational society. They had been pub licly invited to call on the Rev Scudder and wife at the new parsonage which they now occupy. Mir and Mrs Scuddcr opened the splendid mansion for the guests to freely look at the rooms and furniture which had been presented and deeded to the society by Mrs Mark Hopkins. To give a good description of it would be beyond my vocabulary of language. It was not gorgeous but rich, not dazzling but elegant and of the most useful kind. A place for every thing and every thing in it's place. The guests entered through the Chapel to where hats and wraps were left and then passed from the chapel to the parsonage by the coy cred passage way which leads to the library or pastors study, where all were received by MT and Mrs Scudder with a hearty shake of hands and a pleasent greeting for all. After the guests had satisfied their eyes by looking, a bell called all to order, when the pastor de- livered short address suited to the oc- casion and offered prayer of consecra- tion; this was followed with singing by the choir, then all were invited to the chapel for refreshments which our ladies know so well how to provide. A pleas ant time long to be remembered. 2.
