But Ido not remember to have Seen any account ofit in your columns; and yet it is not undeserving of notiep. Carlisle is the county town of Cnna i berland county, and was formerly a. commanding centre of travel and influ ence. It lies in the heart ,of the great and fertile Cumberland Valley, wiiich trends away into Maryland and Vir ginia. The valley, which Is a limestone region, anti- reputed highly : sulubriou3, Is a dozen miles wide, between two par allel ranges of the Bine Ridge, the North or Kittatinny Mountain, and the South, Mountain. Carlisle is equidis tant from each mountain, but as the ground rises in the centre; it is sot low or depressed, as the term valley, might at first seem to indicate, This region was originally settled by Scotch-Irish Presbyterians, who have left the impress of their character and -pm, me community. There are two Presbyterian churcuca in Car lisle, comprising a large'proportion of the intelligence, Influence,morality and wealth of the borough. There are oth er denominations represented, but it Is not proposed to furnish any account of them here, except to that tho Gor man population has become very nu-: merous, there being two Lutheran churches and one Reformed. The Eng lish ; Lutheran church numbers seven hundred communicants. The town of Carlisle was laid out by the Proprietaries in 1731, and almost simultaneously a Presbyterian congre gation was organized. Worship seems to have been conducted at first by tho Rev. Mr. Thompson; in a log church at Meeting House Springs, a beautiful spot about two miles distant, much fre quented still for picnics. The log house has dong since disappeared, but old gravestones may still be seen with ar morial, bearings. About the year 1781 ! I this congregation; under the care of the I Rev.' Mr. Steele, removed into the "I town, and erected a house of worship I herd Meantime the other church had : I taken measures to build for themsolves I by the help of a,lottery, and in 1761, ' I obtained Dr., George Duffleid for their j pastor; Ho- was . the ancestor, of the I Duffleid family,, apd was a distinguish- I ed divine In his, day., .When tho divi | albn rose between Old, and New Sides, I Mr. Steel’s congregation ranged them-' I'selves with the Old Side,, and Mr. Duf- I. field’s with the-New.- So fiercely did [ the controversy rage that the very I schools lieca'me Infected, and gave vent | to,their,mutual animosity in lampoons j and encounters, | ; Some time .before the Revolution; | and, q( course, more than a century ago, | Mr. Bteele’spooplo.or the "Old Lights,” I as they wore called, erected the large I and stately edlflconow-known- as the I First church, on corner I of the Centre Square.’ This substantial I structure was built of the limes tdhOof [the neighborhood. The pews were | high 1 and square, and the pnipit stodd' [ on one of the sides, | After MrJ DUffleid’s removal: tel Phil- 1 I adelplijn,..and, Mr. Steele’s .death, ,the: two congregations agreed to unite, and. called Dr. Robert Davidson to be their, pastor. Dr. Davidson had been Profes sor of Belles Lettres In the Unlvereity of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, and seems to have been transferred, through the influence of Dr. Bush, for the puiv pose of holding jointly, this pastoral charge apd the Professorship of Bellos [Lettresln the newly founded college., The benignity of his dispositloni'Jolned with his exemplary character and rep utation for. learning, gave him an, asi cendcnCy wiiich retained the previously . discordant elements in uninterrupted harmony to tho closoqf liia long pastor ate o^'twenty-seven years, Etta sue- . cessor was, singular enough, a grandson of thd‘first minister of tho Old Town church, tho Rev. George Duffleid, af terwards better known os Dr. Duffleid. Under Ids stern and, rigid rule ;tho church prospered greatly, and vice hid ■ her face abashed before him. Dr. Duf field fulminated unsparingly the terrors of the law, and a lady of the congrega tion once said she wished he would rec ollect that there was such a text in the Trustees. Ipiittical.

Dr.' Diiffield afterwards was settled at Detroit, where he.died suddenly in the pulpit two or three years ago. But a few months prior to the sad event he wasifavored as few clergymen are.‘ Ho . was on a visit to Carlisle, when three generations filled the pulpit of his old chbfch. He presented himself in the morning, his son in the afternoon, and his grandson in the evening I His successor was Dr. Sprole, after wards chaplain at West Point, and now of NeWburg, N. Y. The present pastor is Dr. Wing, a man of learning, and one of the translators of Lange’s Com- mentary, ■ The congregation are adding to the venerable old church a new tower and lectare-rbbm, also of limestone, and of suclj beautiful workmanship as would be. a credit to any city in the land.' Thei expense of this addition will be $16,000 or more. SECOND CHURCH. The Second Church owes Hu origin to Dr. .Duffleld's having become a warm champion of the,New-scboo| views. A large,, wealthy, and Influential portion of the congregation withdrew and or ganized the Second Church, putting up a handsome building wltlmiit a dollar of debt. Thdy pilled the Rev. Daniel Mc- Kinley,,ahd, J after litis lose of health, Dr. A. T. : MiG(ll;'now- tho distinguished 1 Professor In Princeton 'Seminary. His ■successors wete Dr. T. V. Moore, late of Richmond, Vii, deceased; 1 Mr. Bliss, now of Plainfield, N. J., and Mr. Mor viti Johnson, deceased. : Tbe present pas tor Is thO Rev. George Norcross. The origi nal edifice has been taken down, and i> handsome brick church, in the Gothic style, baa Just been erected on the old site, at an expense —including bell, or gan, and upholsterlhg—of $40,000. OPEN-AIR PkEACHINO. ‘ * Open-air preaoblng has been kept up all- summer, through the zeal of a few young men. ThO services have been held' at tbe corners of the streets every Sunday evening, at half-past six o’clock, not protracted beyond an hour. In the dearth 1 of regular church services this has been thought to prove an admirable device. Last Sunday evening the open air service was held at the corner of a church , which was closed, and opposite to another which was also closed. In' fact, suoh has been the occasional dearth of religious services, in consequence of the absence of the clergy, that tbe ap pointment of a home missionary might have seemed opportune. DICKINSON COLLEGE. Dickinson College was founded In 1783, aud named in horor of the distinguished Quaker, John Dickinson, the author of “ The Farmer’s Letters.” Dr. Nlsbet, of Saotlaud, was invited to be tbe first Pre sident, a man whose prodigious memory and sarcastic wit have been long notori ous. Dr- Miller and others earns here to study theology, with him; My limits will hot allow me to note tbe numerous anecdotes that might be told of him.— Bishop MaCoskry, of Michigan, Is bis grand-son. After his decease, in 1801, a succession of distinguished names were found in the Principal's chair—Dr, Da vldson, author of several useful works; Dr. Atwater, father, of'Professor Atwa ter, of Princeton ;‘ Dr. John M. Mason, that prince of preachers; one of the great est divines America ever produced, “ whose attribute, ’’ as Dr. McElroy, well said of him, " was power Dr. Neill, Dr. How, to say nothing of Professors snob as Thomas Cooper, Jamse Ross, Vethake, McClelland, &0., every one of whom woe a tower of strength. The College was not in these days sec tarian, though it has beep erroneously represented as snob'; but on its, suspen sion; in' eODsequence of Idteatlue feuds. In 1832, It fell into tbe bands of tho Meth odists' and the charter Was formally al tered In tbelr favor. 1 They succeeded In galvanizing it for a time with a strong FacultywDurbln, Emory,- Caldwell, Mo- Clintook, Allen, now of Girard College; ■ but it Is whispered- that -they-would.now have no objections to exchange It fora mare congenial location,. Andlf, eomo friend or friends' obuld be found who would step forward at this juncture, ready to devise liberal things, It is be lieved’ that a ; ‘satisfactory negotiation mlghtnot be despaired of, I da’ not feel at liberty to be more communicative, but I do not besltate-to express the persua sion, which is not mine alone, that if tbe .friends of . our denominational policy were tp bestir themselves Just opw, tha advantages above hinted at might be without delay secured. Although tbe charter was professedly nbnseotarian, there can be no doubt that Presbyterian influence was greatly con cerned in getting up the College, and in furnishing ita library. I have In my possession a list of donors in tbe city of Baltimore, whose names will be recog nized as those of leading -Presbyterians.

The stand fell over, and the vasi—a gift from my mother—was shat- , tered. " Yon naughty boy," I cried, angrily, "you deserve to be whipped. Pick up those pieces instantly and put them In •• the coal hnd. He stooped, carefully pick ed tip the fragments, carried them away, and was gone for some time.

Harry picked it up with tears running, and sat down upon bis stool with bis hands foldly so meekly, Presently be said: Mamma, rriay X go and play , with Eddy Potter?” ■ "I don’t care where yon go,’” said I, crossly, “ as long as you keep out of my sight.” . ■■ ■ '■ ■ Harry went to the' closet where bin coat' and hat bung,, put them on and came and,stood by my side. “ Mamma," will yon please forgive me? I’m so sorry!’’ and he put up bis lips for a kiss. -, Ol God forgive me. I pushed the little fellow away. He stood, by. the door a moment looking pitifully .at me. It Is twenty-live years ago to-day since he stood there ; hut I caused him, with his blue coat and.red and gray worsted skat ingca’p.aa the little, feet want, slowly, down the stairs. I heard hlmigo out’and unfasten the gate. Lobbing out’ of the window I sow the little fellow lift hja face with a smile as be saw me, which gave place to a pitiful quiver of the lips as be saw I took ho notice of him. I watched the darllbg down I the street with a strange, nndeflhed feeling; till the little coat and' red mittena were no lon'ger visible. Twice a sudden Impulse moved me to oall liim back, but X.crusb ed It .down. Ob ! . Would to God I hod • Well, I sewed all through the winter af ternoon. At four o'clock I put away my work and sat by the window.

Suppose Harry ehduld be suddenly taken away (rom yon, would not your cruel words haunt ymi forever? \ I could bear this ho longer. I rose amt picked up the stray litter about the room to give It a more tidy appearance. Then I went to the window, peering anxiously through the gloom, but seeing nothing of my boy, my heart became terribly heavy ; this -suspense was an — bearable.'

There was a great silence In Ihe room, broken only by the blithe, sweet voice of , a canary, and the purr ot a Maltese cut; ■ Presently Mrs. Potter came towards me, and placed tier'hand'softly on my shodl- ‘ der, say ing, “Elln, my poor child.” But I never moved, but sat gazing* with wide eyes upon an awful picture. — A cold gray afternoon, a pond, and a lit tle.figure Well known to me suddenly . disappearing through the treacherous “ ice, down, down, the little hand grasp- . lug at the treacherous weeds, the sweet mouth full of water. And tbose wicked, sinful words ringing through my tears* — ” I: don’t oaro, where you go, so long as yoii keep out of my sight." There was a ! miatbeloro my .eyes, a ringing.,in my. ears..
