A raro treat will bo afforded tho peo
ple of this placo next Thursday ove

bo especially Interesting to nil students
of tho Bible, nnd wo would urge all
Sunday School workers to bo present.
Tho Norrist.own Herald says: "Last
evening Bev. Dr. Murphey delivered
his lecture, entitled "Jerusalem and Its
Surroundings," at tho DeKalb street
Methodist church. His descriptions of
this celebrated city of the Holy Land
wero exceedingly interesting, and con
veyed much Informafion. His knowledge-of

by extensive travel, and those itro viv

Si.'iiilny School Work,
Fallow Teacheus We havo Just
entered tho now year of 1875, and wo
have tinned our backs, on 1871; and
wo fee.l that no earnest teacher can
close a year without feeling sad. Af
ter all our endeavors thero Is so little
result. It U of no use to say that tho
teacher should leave results to God and
do his duty. In 3 sense this Is true, but
there is a sense In whlcli- nil teachers
bhould caro for results, wo might as
well tell a farmer no to concern him
self about his harvest. Doubtless it is
right to cast your care on God In a mat
ter ot harvest, and in a niaiter of suc
cess In Sunday School teaclilut;. It Is
right to trust God so much n's to find
ueiiver.inco from worrr. But souiel
leucners trust tiou altogllier too lar,
they trust him to do their work. A
farmer who cares nothing about his har
vest, -at the end of the year Is not worth
much, no more Is n Surlday School tea
cher who Is careless of Ve6tilt3. There
fore, wo say, a teacher Vho Is In ear
nest must nlways feel that the result of
any year's work aro less tiinn ho had a
right to hope forjwe as teachers cannot
estimato results. Tho furmer cau put
his wheat on the scale nnd have his
harvest set down In pounds, from which
ho can get his value in dollars nnd cents,
but llio teacher can not so easily tell
just what tho'valuo of his work may
be, the influence of a Sunday School
teacher on a child's life aro too subtle
to be estimated In tho gross, and tho
work of the Spirit of God generally re
fuses to be gauged by such ruugh
measurement for even. If vou could
measure tho amount of knowledgo It
would be 110 adequate measure of the
true spiritual success of tho teacher.
While tho result of the Sundav School
,work is not easily weighed or counted.
1 et mere is a result In the case of good
work, and this result is generally ap
preciable lu some way. Wo have not
much coulidencu iu those Invisible re
sults that some people talk about. Be.
suits that are Invisible aro not gener
ally of much account. A'owand then a
faithful teacher does a long work of
preparation, the result of which Is sud
denly brought to light ufter patient
waiting, llut patience aud pctslstont
labor will show some fruit bouio mor
al Improvement, at least; and let us ev
er lemember that every elevation of tlio
moral nnd effectual nature Is a drawing
of the soul nearer to Christ. Wo are
nono o( us, perhaps, dead fail
ures; wo aro nouo of us entlrtly
successful; there Is enough failure in
eveiy teacher's life to causo reflection.
It Is far easier for you to say you havo
no gift for the work, nnd to throw it
down like that other man of oue talent,
than to examlno catefullv Into the lea-
sons for want of success, we cannot bet
ter improvu the time for memory "and
tears" then by looking Into our failure
ami success, und trying toluiprovln the
future the mistakes of tho past, every
thing else being equal, you will be
more successful this year In exact pro
portion as you come to uo, personally
acquainted wlth.and svnmathl.ed with
by your scholars, In proportion as the re
lation between you ail I them Is 0110 of
acquaintance, frlendlluess, and mutual
regard will you succeed. Ho that
goeths forth and weepeth, bearing
precious seeds, shall doubtless come
again with rejoicing, bringing his
sheaves with him. josei-m.

opened on Monday with a full corps of
teachers except Mrs. Allcut (formerly
Mrs. Trexler) who has not yet returned
from her wedding tour.
jtr. Dituer,our enterprising uulcher,
led, on last Tlmrsday, Miss Houze to
tho hymeneal alter. Tho happy groom
did not take, as Is customary, a wed
ding tour, but remained at home and
entertained his friends lu a liberal man
ner. It is estimated that there nro thirty
marrlagablu youug ladles lu E. Mauch
Chunk. The must ot them are good
looking, nnd besides that the inajur'iy
have attained to that degree of intelll
Igeiice, which renders them highly en
tertaining In the social circle, aud they
are well qualified iu the art of uastko
kouv. The best critics say that Miss.
Tilly Cooke Is the belle of tho placo.
The critics aro right. Ono would na
turally Infer from thu above facts, that
weddings would bo moio froiuent
In our town. 4But It Is a slgnlflcent
fact to know that many ot tho thirty,
tu which we have referred, are serious
ly debatiu - Iho question whether It Is
better in the miiid to sutler the slings
and arrows ot a single unblessdncss, of
to enjoy tho boon of conjugal felicity,
in which they would havo a help-tnato
In resisting tho whips aud scorns of
time. To thoso who aro drifting as
swiftly as tho wheels of tlmo can carry
them, toward an "old maid's" Ufa ttd
recommend, with full confidence, that
they tarry not In the land whero conju
gal hopes nro perpetually blighted, but
gather up their tinsels, pack them In
tho largest "Saratoga," and tako tho
next boat for that goodly heritage,
found beyond their natlvo land In tho
Isle of Man.
There Is a considetable stir among
saloon kcopers, whoso business has been
somewhat prostrated by an unexpected
arrest fonkeeplng turkey-gobbler gam
bling houses. Some of the boys aro
counting their witness fees while in at
tendance nt the next term of court. Tho
proprietors of these unlawful houses
count themselves as ruined. No doubs
.'heir failure will be a calamity to tho
community.
