Dedication of the NJ. E. Church.

The new Methodist church Of this
city was dedicated last Sunday morn
ing by Rev. DR.. Michael Benson, Pre-
siding Elder of this district. The
Congregational and Baptist churches
of this city and the Methodist church
of Ellsworth participated in the SER
vices. The Presiding Elder preached
the morning sermon which was an ex-
ceptionally able discourse on the text,
"The Glory Of the Latter House
Shall be Greater than the Former"
A pleasant feature Of the occasion was
the unusual announcement that the
cost of the building-$6, 400-was all
subscribed three weeks before the
dedication, thus rendering needless
the eXhausting financial efforts often
incident to these occasions. The eve
ming sermon was delivered by Rev.
DR.. j S. Parker of Hudson on the
text, 1.-THE Heavens Declare the
Glory Of God" The preachers pur-
pose was to interpret the divine mes.
sage Of nature and his earnest elo-
quence rendered the discourse mem
orable as well for its excellence as for
the interest of the occasion.
The Methodist people of the city
and the community at large are to be
congratulated upon having obtained
SO beautiful and commodious an
edifce at so small cost and for many
years may well feel repaid for their
generous contributions to so com
mendable and successful an enter
