—During the recess of Hanover
Church, Wilmington, Del., and while
the pastor has beettiaway on his usual
summer tour the Trustees took occasion
to have several very .decided improve
ments made to the interior in and about
the pulpit. The fleor of the latter has
been lowered nearly two feet, and the
stairs, which were before in the <centre,
are now at either end. The desk has
been repainted, and . made one of the
neatest in the city. The rear wall of
the pulpit has also been frescoed, over
by workmen from Philadelphia, and pre

The entire change is refreshing to the

church, Presbytery of Fort Wayne, was

air. He was quickly carried out of the

Mr. marker was forty-one, years of
age, and had been preaching nineteen

ter of Ezekiel
Three of the ministers' wives assumed
control of the other end of the Church
during the day, and with other singers
added much to the impressiveness of the
services by singing appropriate anthems.
The Church seems to be delighted not
only with their minister, but their min
ister's wife for her musical and social
qualities. The Church at Marquette, in
all that constitutes a prosperous, effi
cient Church, is one of the best in our
body.

' DEATH OF MR. HAMMOND'S
FATHER; s=
VERNON,' Ct., Aug. 23d; 1869
DEAR BROTHER MEARS :-Nly dear
father went to his reward in heaven on
the 6th inst., at 2 o'clockin the morning.
He longed to depart and be with Jesus.
lie was born Jan. 23d, 1789. , He had
as you see, therefore, lived more than
"'fourscore years, and ten.' -
He'was converted when a yobili, and
with the late Dr.' Lee, of Noriiich;
began to work for Christ in holding small'
meetings in school-houses in the districts
around.
Since dear mother's death, Feb. 7th,
1855, he has lived in the very t presence
of God. All his thoughts have been
heavenward. ,
As his memory failed him he frequently
was not satisfied unless we had family
prayers several times, night and morning:
One Sabbath a few weeks ago, when I was
away, preaching in Manchester, Ct , he
was engaged in earnest praYer for a bless
ing nearly the whole time, awl his pray
ers were answered.
Mother's last petition (or one of them)
that father might be "more heavenly
minded," seems to have been answered.
Since that time he has been all taken up
with the things of eternity. During the
past winter I often felt greatly strength
ened in my labors whqn,k received a let
ter from my sister saying "Father prays
for God's blessing upon the meetings
every 'day."
. .
Oh hoW thankful should children be
.
for praying. parents.
Until a little more than a week before
his death, he was, for a man of his age
well and cheerful. He was then sud
aenly paralysed upon his whole left side,
so that he could no longer walk, or use
his left hand. But he suffered little if
any pain, and at last gently fell asleep in
Jesus: " Blessed sleep from which none
ever wake to weep." Yours in Him,
E. P. HAMMOND
—Prof. Chas. D. Cleveland, a well
known and highly respectable citizen
of this city, died suddenly of heart
disease. • The deceased returned, about
two weeks ago with a portion, of his
family, fromEniope, where he had spent
the last three years for the benefit of his
health, and up to within a few hours of
his death, was in good spirits and ap
parently in his usual health. He was
born on December 2d, 1802, at Salem,
Massachusetts, and was the son of Rev.
Charles Cleveland, of Boston. During.
five years of his youthful, life he was
employed in, a store, but in 1823 entered
Darmouth College, N. H., from which
institution he graduated in 1827. He
was elected in 1830 Professor of the
Latin and 'Greek Languages in Dickin
son College; CarliSle ' Pa., and in 1832
Professor. Of Latin Language and Litera
ture in the University of New York. In
1834 he, esta:blished in Philadelphia a
young ladies' school which enjoyed a
high reputation for the thoroughnesS of
the discipline and the extended course
of studies. ,In 1861 Professor.. Cleve

Wales, and after serving for several
years resigned this' position and returned

This curious and instructive toy is got
up by Messrs. Wanamaker & Brown and
given gratis to every boy who wears Oak
Hall jackets and pants. Their establish
ment has become a great favorite with
the children because of the "good clothes"
sold there at prices so moderate that mo

before—to say nothing of the "windmill."

TESTIMONIALS.
The Waters Pianos are known 3$ among the
very best.—Veto York Enangeliat.
We can speak of the merits, of the Waters
Pianos from personal knowledge as being of the
very best quality.—[Christian Intelligeneer.
The Waters Pianos are built of the best and
most thoroughly seasoned material.—[Advocate
and Journal.
Waters' Pianos and Melodeons challenge com
parison with the finest made anywhere in the
country.—fllome Journal.
Our friends will find at Mr. Waters' store the
very best assortment of Organs and Pianos to be
foundin the United States.—{Graliani's Magazine.
MUNCAL DOINGS.—Since Mr. Horace Waters
gave up publishing sheet Music he has devoted
his who]e capital and attention to the manufac
ture and sale of Pianos and 'Melodeons. He has
just issued a catalogue of his new instruments,
givinm ' a new scale of prices, which shows a
marked reduction from former rates, and his
Pianos have recently been awarded the First
Premium at several Fairs. Many people of the
present day, who are attracted, if not confused,
with the flaming advertisements of rival piano
houses, probably overlook a modest manufacturer
like Mr. Waters; but we happen to know that his
instruments earned him a good reputation long
before Expositions and the honors" Connected
therewith were ever thought of; indeed, we have
one of Mr. Waters' piano-fortes now in our resi
dence (where it has stood for years,) of which
any manufacturer in the world might well he
proud. We have always been delighted with it
as it sweet-toned and powerful instrument, and
there is no doubt of its durability; more than
this, some of the best amateur players in the
city, as several celebrated pianists, have perform
ed' on the said piano, and all pronounced it a su
perior andfirst-class instrument. Stronger indorse
ment we could not give.—Dome Journal.
