Thirty-nintb Anniversary Laurci-street
Methodist Episcopal sunday-school.

The thirty-ninth anniversary of the
Laurel Street Methodist Episcopal sun
day-school last night was in every sense
most creditable and enjoyable enter
tainmeni. The music was exceedingly
we'll rendered. The Rotations by the
children were appropriate and well de
liyered Rev. W p. Wright, the much
loved former pastor of the church, was
present. and received hearty welcome
from his old friends, and by well-timed
and appropriate address added no little
TO the general pleasure of the occasion.
Colonel Thomas Whitehead also spoke
aptly and well. The efficient superin-
tendent, Mr.. II. c. ONerbind, reported
the school in most prosperous condi-
ton. Valuable presents were presented
to the superintendent, several OF the
officers, and many of the teachers and
scholars. All in all, the occasion was
one long 10 be remembered, and the
wish OF all was that Laurel-Streei Sab
bath school might continue to grow in
numbers and usefulness, and always
keep in the front rank.
