Methodist Sunday School (elebratiou.
Early on Thursday morning, tlie streets were live
ly with little girls gaily and tastefully dressed. The
boys, looking as clean as new pins, were also about.
The groups Kiel clusters of these little fairies were
soon seen moving out to the church to form proces
sion. which, with martial trusicat its head—banners
anil flags beautifully decorated, and with appropriate
mottoes, made an imposing display in their march a
roitnd town, and out to the grove m Barclay's woods.
Arrived there in front of the stand erected lor the oc
casion, we found it buried in shrubbery, wreatbs and
festoons—all well gotten up. Mr. Gibson, pastor of
the church, in his happv mannei took the stand, and
opened the exercises with an apppropriate prayer.
Mr. Saml. Shuck. Superintendent, was also there.
We suspected his brother, Wm. Shuck, very strongly
for being out there before, judging front the taste
displayed in the arrangement on the ground. We
wondered what the large horses were standing hitch
ed at the fence for, covered with heavy harness; but
in looking round found several barrels of water, and
a good deal more than Jive. loave* and lira jixhex there
in baskets. We concluded the horses and big gear>
had something to do with that part of the arrange
ment. After seeing Mr. Sigafoos on the side of the
stand with some papers fee. iri hand, we judged
there were some other feasts on hand- beside- those
to come out ot the baskets. We were not disappoin
ted. Various literary and religious exercises in the
loim of declamations, dialogues, singing he., were
produced by many of the scholars in a manner that
reflected much credit upon them, and a gieat deal
upon their teachers and superintendent. It wag just
a- it ought to be. fori mu-t give children their
plays, their novel!ies arid toys. The parents were
there giving it their countenance and encouragement.
Without these interests all conspiring Sunday-Schools
don't come to much.
Mr. Gibson, in a veiv agreeable and p'easfng man
ner, and with just such remarks as everybody liked
j on such an occasion, introduced the scholars as their
I respective part- turned up. We will not distinguish,
I lor all did well. We must notice, however, that
i Snndat/Srhool hymn by the five little girls —we don't
! now remember their names, ft appeared that the
wind ceased rustling the leave-, that all might hear
and appreciate tt. The dialogue between masters
| Ce—ria and Blvmire, was conducted with such ease
and natural outburst of expression as made you think
they were really in earnest. The star speech ol
John Shuck took us down. His voice, his gestures
! nd clear articulation, together with a peculiar flash
; ot hi- eye and a little knitting of the brow occasion
; ally gave evidence of good ground there for cultiva
tion. James Shuck made an admirable speech.—
V> ell may the parents of these two young men be
; proud of them. Jo-.ah Gephult and Henry Baker
did themselves much credit in their speeches aud
I dialogues.
1 he closing was a dialogue between Joseph
i and Ins brethren, in appropriate costume. This very
i interesting portion ol Biblical history was well dra
\ mat zed. The character of Joseph was well sustain
ed by John Euliord, a young gentleman of consider
able ptomt-e, and who made ihe opening speech
with much credit to himself. This over, and we
s re to elo-e down on a description ; for the amount
of cold ham, chicken, pickle-, bread and butter, cakes,
kc., &<•., which were spread ou! on a long table and
: disposed of by the scholars and spectators, can bet
ter be imagined than told, when we say that proba
bly four or live hundred palates were well caterer)
to, and all the boys anil gills scamp-red off with
t rouse r pockets and handkerchiefs full of what was
left. SPECTATOR. |
The New Yoke Hkkai.d. of the 3d in-taut, enters
warmly into a discussion of the Medical practice of
Dr. Robert Hunter, oi' that city. The editor of the
Herald stated on a former occasion that he was fnrn
s—H* h patient nt Dr. Hunter, and had derived great
repef fiorn hi- treatment. He says:—No man, we
w:H venture to say. in the whole annuls of tin- pro- ,
lessiori, has ever introduced a more important inno
vation on the old s\ stem of practice, or gained in a
short space of tune more converts to hi* opinions.—
Amongst the-e hp ha* to reckon some of the larulfy
.tself, forced to conviction" by the proofs that daily
tall under their observation. But the most incon
trovertible evidence of the benefits conferred by Dr.
Hunter's mode of treatment in diseases of the lungs
is to he found in the City Inspector's report. By
the-e documents it is shown that the diminution in
the mortality from eon-nmption during the|a*t three
mouths of the year 1655, as compared with The cor- j
responding three months of 1853 and 1651, was near
ly twenty-five per cent. Comparing the first quar
ter of the present year with the first three months
of the years 1854 and 1855, the diminution i* still
more remarkable, amounting to more than 32 per
cent. Now, we ktiow from the vast niittiberOY ca
ses treated and cures effected by Dr Hunter during ;
the period- referred to. that his efforts contributed,
if not to produce all, at lea-t the greater shaie of thi
imprnverrient. The severit" of the pa-t winter
would have increased instead ol diminished the mor
tality arising from pulmonary disease*, had not thpre ;
been some new and powerful counteracting influence !
at work.
Emboldened by these results, and having the most
entire confidence in the inhalation system. Dr. Hun
ter now come* forward to challenge the faculty to u
tair and open inve-tigation of hi- theories. He says, j
nrul-ays truly, that it is not light to confine the di<- j
rossion to med cat journals, which ore the nicte ex- -
ponents of the interests and prejudices of particular
indiv'riluals, societies or schools. 11" claim- the

T. A. HURLEY S SARSAPARILLA.
OF all the remedies that have been discovered ilu
ling the ;ue-eiit age for the "tliouanml ill* liiat tlesti
is heir to" none equal this wonderful preparation. —
Only three years have elap-ed since the discoverer
(who spent a decade in studying, experimentalizing,
and perfecting it) first introduced it tothe public,ami
it i* already recognized, by the most eminent physi
cians hi all part* of the country to be I tie niost sur
prising and effective remedy lor certain di-cases of
which ttiev have knowledge.
All other cornfKiunds or syrups of the root, have
hitheiio lailed to command the sanction of the far -
lilt)', because, on being tested, they have been found
to roritain noxious ingredient* which neutralize tin
good effects o! the Bji-apurilla, and often times in
jure the health of the patient. It is not so with
Hurley's preparation.
This is the pure and genuine extract ol ihe root,
and will on trial, be found to effect a certain and
perfect cute ol the following complaints and disea-
Aflections of the Bone-, IlVb'tual Costiveness,
Debility, lunigjesfon,
Diseases oi the Kidneys, Liver Gopiaiuts
Dispepsia, Piles,
Erysipelas, Pulmonary Disease*,
Female Irregularities, Scrofula or King's Evil,
Fistula : Syphilis,
And all Skin disease*.
Besides curing the above, if i* also known to be a
great and powerful tonic, purifying the blood and in
vigorating the system.
In *liori, it is. without exception, in Ihe cases men
tioned, and its gerieial effect on the system, the
most efficacious as it is the most desirable remedy
of the age. It is already extensively u-ed through
out the country and is fast obtaining an European
reputation. The instances of dure* it has effected
are daily coming to the proprietors knowledge, and
he lias no hesitation in recommending it to one and
all who de-irc to procure relief from suffering. One
bottle be:ng tried, it* effects will be too apparant to
admit of further doubt.
Recollect Hurley's Sarsaparilla is tlie only <;kx
