Las, Thursday, Jacob Role, an old
man, who had been employed at Callan's
quarries as a blacksmith, while somewhat
intoxicated, was induced to enter Skill
mans barn, on McCready's alley. He
charges that when in there, money was
begged from him by Grantley Skillman
and Thos. Morgan to buy liquor, &c.
He fell asleep, aud was awakened by some
one striking him on the head with clab.
He grabbed the man aud had a tussle with
him, when he was struck in the eye with
a bottle or club, and his eye badly cut
and injured. He had about $25 10 his
pockets and says that the person who at
tackled him tired to get it. He subse-
quenily made complaint before Justice
Lyman, before whom hearing was had
yesterday, which resulted in the commit
ment of Skillman to the county Jail. The
evidence was not considered sufficient to
hold Mongan. Role says he has son
living in Newark with whom he makes
his home when not at work elsewhere.

The Presbytery of New Brunswick.
The Presbytery of New Brunswick held
the June intermediate meeting yesterday,
in The Presbyterian Church in this city.
There were present "a ministers and 7
elders.
The Moderator, Rev. David Willis, Jr.,
favored a motion in favor of emitting the
sermon at the opening of the Fall meet
ing of the Presbytery, giving as the reason
the press of business and also the small
attendance on The part of the people.
DR.. Dixon thought that the tendency
was to give our attention to mere matters
of business. The churches are little dis
posed TO attend the meetings of the Pres
bytery, because the impression prevails
that ouly business is to be attended to,
and the Presbytery has very little, if any,
time for the consideration Of spiritual
matters. DR.. Dixon said that he hunger
ed for the preaching of the Gospel, not
merely as on intellectual treat, but as a
means of grace. Presbytery is often
rushed with business, but it ought to give
the time to these matters that their i'm
portance demands.
The amendment was lost.
DR.. Nudge offered motion for the ap-
pointment of special committee TO re-
port on the revision of the Confession at
the October meeting, in order that the
business may be brought orderly before
Presbytery.
The chairman of the Committee on
Synodcal Home Missions offered an in
formal report. The Presbyteries of
Synod have thus far exceeded the con-
tribution of last year by about $500.
The Presbytery may show shortage on
account of the falling off in individual
gifts. 1t is therefore important that the
churches raise the amounts assigned them.
Elder Cornelius Shepherd, M. d. of
Trenton, commissioner to the list
General Assembly, speaking regarding
the Assembly, said that three important
questions were brought before 1.-THE
matter relating TO the election of Prof.
Briggs the Revision of the Confession Of
the Faith, and the establishment of an
order of Deaconesses.
Rev. Geo. w. s. Winrick, of the Pres
bytery of st. Lawrence, was received,
and the call for his service as pastor OF
Kirkpatrick Memorial Church, Ringoes,
was read, found in order, and upon being
placed in the hands of the pastor-elect
was accepted. committee was appoint
ed to arrange for the installation.
In the afternoon, at the popular meet
ing, the question, "The power of the
Church ia the community; in what it
consists" was The subject of an address
by the Moderator.
Rev. G. Ii. Ingram had as topic 'rhe
power of the Church In the community,
how exerted and by whom" Rev. DIR.
Nassau spoke upon the needs OF Africa.
The installation of the pastor of Kirk
patrick Memorial Church was set down
for July 18th, at Q o'clock p. M, the
Moderator to preside. Preshytery adj
journed to meet 10 Ewing for the Fall
session.

The building for the new Hosiery
Company at Pennington is up aud encios-
ed, ready fer the roof.

The ''breaking Of ground" for the
new St. Andrews Church, in this city,
took place on Monday evening last and
drew out large audience. The exercises
consisted of the singing of professional
and other hymns, prayers and the throw
ing out of spades-full of earth by the rec
tor, vestrymcn and representatives OF the
Guilds aud Sunday School. 1t was a very
appropriate aud impressive ceremony,
made doubly so as it also celebrated the
end of the fortieth year of the labors OF
the self-sacrifcing, energetic, able and be-
loved pastor of St. Andrews. A fuller
account, received too late for this issue,
will appear next week.

-Children's Day exercises came off at
the Ringoes Baptist Church last Sunday
evening. Il, Sunday School programme
was well arranged and carried out, Mrs.
NJ. A. Case, Superintendent, presiding.
The chapel was neatly trimmed with ever
greens aud flowers, and the chaltering OF
numerous canary birds from their cages
suspended all about, added much to en-
liven the occasion. Singing by the choir,
responsive readings and many little decla-
nations by the children, with an address
on Home Missions by DIR. Geo. II. Lari-
son, filed the extended programme. The
attendance was large; the house was
packed and many could not gain admit
lance on account of the crowd.

BLACK DRESS GOODS.

The summer weights especially,
occupy the best counter in our store;
such an abundance is not to be found
short of our large cities. It's not
quantity that we dwell most on. A
black dress bought at the "Grand
Depot" leaves with every assurance
that the quality is superb, the color
right, and price the lowest. Are
you aware there has been a revolu-
ton in the art of black dyeing, and
that we were the first to adopt the
grand improvement-in fast black
Hosiery as well. Rusty blacks
have no space here. A splendid
light beams down upon these goods
to help verify our just claim.

High School Commencement.

-~tSA SShoOA commencement.
The annual commencement of the High
School Department of our city schools,
took place last Wednesday evening, at
Holcombe Hall. AS usual, the hall was
uncomfortably crowded.
Four scholars graduated, namely, Rita
Hunt (irst honor, Mary F. Closson (sec-
ond honer), Clara K. Hunt, and George
w. Sproat. The essays by these scholars
were very creditable 10 them, and they
acquitted themselves in way that pleas
ed the audience.
The exercises were also interspcrsed by
Rotations by Louis G. Williams, John
Malloy, Harry Cooley, Ollie Silvers, Jen-
ME Barley, Carrie Pierson and Pauline
Kimmel. They were well-selected and
well-recited and gave much satisfaction to
the listeners.
The excellent orchestra under the con-
ductorship of Mr.. Chas. A. Davis, played
several selections in way that added
greatly to the interest o. the occasion.
The singing of the school was also pleas
ing feature.
AT the close OF the exercises Rev. w. w.
Bullock gave timely address to the
graduating class. The members received
floral and other presents in abundance,
and new era opened in their lives.
Principal Kerr deserves praise for his
well-organized entertainment, which was
so good in itself and which passed off so
smoothly. To secure this required a
great deal of work and worry of mind
The school trustees ably seconded The
principals efforts, and are to be CON-
mended for the interest they manifested in
the commencement exercises.

One of our storekeepers announces
that ne will close during the Summer at
aSO P. M. This is creditable action to-
wards his employees and should be imita-
tea by all our business men. There is no
reason excepting CUSTOM that makes it
necessary to keep stores open for so many
hours of the day. If ten hours is sufficient
for other people, it ought to be for clerks
and business men.
