were made by many of the young ladies'
These recitations consisted OF whole chapters
of the New Testament and Psalms, one con-
tanning hhy-two verses. The young ladies
without an exception, dequittcd themselves
nobly on the occasion. Some very YOUNG
children we're catechscd apd gave striking
testimony to rapid development OF mnd for so
tender an age. The next part of the pro-
srammc entered upon with alacriry by all
ages and sexes. y lengthy procession was
formed and all were marched to long tables in
the grove which were loaded 10 their utmost
capacity with well barbccued beef, mutton and

Der Of letters Of importance were delayed from
one to two weeks. This was the case with
some letters from Newbcrry asking the citizens
OF Union to meet with the citizens Of that county
last Saturday for the purpose Of considering
the extension of the Augusta, Edgcfed and
Ncwberry Narrow Gauge L. r. to Union.
Those letters came too late for any action to be
taken in tune for the proposed Newbcrry meet.

morrow, the 9TH, at Mt. Tabor Church., in New
