JBUfltfUaneouo. _ . Beaver Dam Sabbath School. * The following address was read before the Beaver Dam Sabbath School, by the ■ Secretary, at a celebration held on the 29th of August: ADDRESS. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN :—I am not often reluctant in the performance of any duty enjoined upon me by my friends that I feel competent to perform, and in this instance I could have wished the task had been assigned by you to an older head and an abler pen; but as I have been selected to make the report, I have done the best I could in the short space of time allowed me, and I shall proceed without further apology. Our school was organized for the pres ent summer session, on Sunday, the l'2th day of April, beiDg some three or four weeks later than in some former years, on account of the long continued cold weath er in the spring* The officers chosen to serve during the year, were Mr. Elias Pene packer and Maj. Win. Wilson for Superin tendents ; Mr. Leonard Melcher and Sam uel Stine, esq , assistant Superintendents; Mrs. Henderson and Mrs. Hinds chosen Female Superintendents; David Withcrow. Librarian; and A. J. North, Secretary.— The school on commencement-day (as is usually the case) was comparatively small, numbering but 28 male and 30 female scholars, with quite a deficient supply of teachers. An increased iuterest, however, soon manifested itself in the rapid ad dition made to the school from Sabbath to Sabbath, until now we number 51 male and 74 female scholars with 11 male and 14 female teachers, and including officers and all in connection as actually belonging to the school, there are 150 iu number. — We are gratified iu having the services of so many young ladies and gentlemen in aid of the enterprise. Our library iu the spring was somewhat reduced in numbers, and having been hand led and used all the preceding summer was very much worn and defaced, and as the school increased iu numbers the sup ply of testaments and hymn books for the use of classes fell short. It was deemed advisable to add to our stock of books, and replenish the library with such kinds as the pressing wants of the school seemed to require. Our wants were made known to the parents and people through the the medium of subscription papers, and the manner in which snca generous re sponses to the call were given, is worthy of note here, and we take occasion to express to them our sincere thauks. An addi tion was then secured of 100 vois. to the library and a fall supply of testa meuts, hymn book, spellers and primmers. It has been gratifying at all times to ob serve a prompt and regular attendance, notwithstanding the weather of the season has been so variable aud wet. Good order and a seeming interest in study on the part of the school was quite manifest.— Our school is based upon the principle of I Dion. We meet upon common ground, and for one common object. Our supplies are from the American S. S. Union, but the Bible alone is our text book. We condescend even to teach the A, B, C's, and here the most illiterate may learn to read, and the mind, that innate immortal in man, directed the way to happiness and glory. We regret that the practice of committing verses of scripture has not been as general among the children as could have been desired. This may be owing partly to the oversight of the Teacher, and partly perhaps to the carelessness of the scholar, and it may slightly be owin" to the want of attention from the parents at borne. Although as I have said the practice of task learning has not been as general among the scholars as desired, yet raanv have done their duty in that respect nobly, and stand to-day honored by the approba tion of this respectable audience. Let others who heretofore remained indifferent learn a lesson to-day that will stimulate them to greater exertions in the future, that they may stand in the front ranks at the next celebration, if spared to attend another. To you who are spectators we have a word of welcome, and exhortation. We are glad to see you here; it gives us much encouragement; we need your countenance and support; and although you do not meet with us, yet half the work rests upou you at home, in seeing your children studious and attentive to the lessons as signed them, and without your aid our ex ertions here will be almost in vaiu. Will you then continue to aid us—will you come up to the help of the Lord-Will you lot such a cause languish, in view of the fact that soon those children will have to fill our places, and must meet these re sponsibilities for themselves, and if a right .course is pursued what may they not ac complish.' Look at or nation now, 80 millions in number, in high condition of un.Ters.l health, able t„ feed the world with bread, doth e them w'.b cotton, and enrich then, w.th gold 11 A people send ing forth Liberty and Beligion all UV er the earth, and without on enemy to re tard our progress; a people, conveying sparks of lightning anqucnched through the depths of the ocean and causing them to flash in the same instant on either shore. A people, riding over their domain by steam, and with the speed of the winds, and communicating to every part of the circumference by electricity, always and forever learning something new. With such a state of things, shall the Sabbath School cause languish ? Surely not. Let it prosper; make it prosper; cherish it as a great work, as an American, peculiar to the spirit of our institutions; cherish it as beyond all dispute, a most gracious, and glorious work ; cherish it for our own ad vantage, but above all that posterity may ( he inherited of a boon so unspeakably val uable. The cost of it is simply nothing and the value of it is beyond calculation in its results. Finally, my friends, we believe these annual celebrations are of much profit to us. They seem as resting places in the great journey of Life, where we can stop to review the ground over which we travel led, and take )a moment's reflection before we make another leap into the uncertain future. Here friend meets frieud with smiles of approbation, thereby strengthen ing the bonds of brotherhood, aud eleva ting our race still higher in the scale of • our being. Since our happy meeting lat year, Death has takeu from our rauks a ! shepardess of the flock, aud we mourn the loss of an able advocate and zealous friend, who for six years labored arduously in the work, in the high position of Female 1 Superintendent. In her the Sabbath | School has lost an earnest advocate and • friend, the community a useful member and the Family a kind and affectionate mother. POLBT>NIXG CASE IN ALABAMA. The Montgomery (Ala.) Mail of the 17th, gives the subjoined account of the poisoning case in Pike county, iu that State, referred to briefly by telegraph: A German or Hungarian, whose name our informant has forgotten, was on inti mate terms with a negro woman, the prop erty of old Mr. Thomas Frazell, one of the earliest settlers of Pike. This man had once been in the employ of Mr. F., and was familiar with his premises. Some time since he had been detected in gambling with Mr. F's negroes, and Mr. F. had in stituted a prosecution against him. On Saturday evening, the 12th instant, he was seen in conversation with the negro woman above alluded to at the well, although he had received orders from Mr. Frazell never to come about his premises. On Sunday there were some thirty-seven persons dining at Mr. Frazell's house, of whom about thir i ty were visitors from the neighborhood. — All these became sick soon after eating, vomiting violently : and the cook being ar rested immediately, on a suspicion of poi soning, at once proceeded to state as fol lows : She said that the white man alove referred to, while at the well, had given her a vial containingrarsenic, which he in- I structed her to mingle with '-the meal, the milk, the hutter and the coffee." He was particularly desirous that it should go into every article of food, lor old Mr. Frazell was in delicate health and generally ate very sparingly. The negro woman said she followed the directions of her lover to the letter-—who, by the way, added to his instructions the remark, that "after the old man had taken that, he would not prose cute him in that case." The poison was administered, as we have seen, bat too successfully. The whole as semblage of persons were put under its in fluence; and. at the last accounts, six had died from its effect-. ()hl Mr. Frazell died about sunset on Sunday, the dav < f the poisoning. His overseers wife and two children, Mrs. Cloud, a widowed daughter of Mr. F., and his grand-daughter, died the next day. Several others were lying in a critical condition, and doubtless there will be more victims of this awfully fiend ish crime. Mr. Jack Frazell, son of the old man, happened to be out of meal on the day of the poisoning, and sent to his father's and borrowed a bushel. All who partook of this, including a brother who had declined to eat at his father's —having come in after some of the company had got siek—were more or less affected. Af ter we had written the above, our inform ant, Mr. J. M. Johnson, of I'ike, called on us again and gave us the name of the prisoner, which is Comiska. Mr. J. fur ther states that the infuriated people of the neighborhood have burnt the negro wom an, arid will perform the same service for Comiska 011 next Monday. In the mean time he is safely lodged in jail at Troy.— He neither denies nor admits anything.

Price cents. Dr. lluuier is a graduate of one of the first medical school* hi the I'. t}., and has devoted u quarter of a cen tury Jo the study and treatment of Sy plnlis and kindred disorders. The practice ef Dr. Ifitnter has long been, and still is, | unbounded, but at the earnest solicitation of numerous person*, he has been induced to pxtend his professional usefulness through the medium of his 'VADE MKCI.M.' It is a volume that should be in the hands of every fam ily in the land, as a preventive of secret vices, or as a guide for the alleviation of ona of the most awful and destructive scourges ever visited upon mankind. The author argues most strongly against every species of self-defileuuinl, and warns parents and guardians in searching terms to guard the young of both sexes from the terrible consequences of their ignorance of physiolo gical laws and sexual impurities and irregularities. To those who have been already ensnared to the 'paths that take hold on death,' a clear and explicit way is shown by which they may secure a return of sound health and a regeneration of the soul from its terrible imllution. It is well known that thousands of victims are annual ly sacrificed at the shrine of (Jtiarkery—especially those sußering from Venerealor S) phililic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weakness, Nervous Debility and the numerous maladies which apring directly from the indulgence of carnal passions and secret violations of Nature. When it is also considered that about lOfi.OOO persons die annually in the United States of Consumption—a large ruajoriiy being the victims of the voluptuous indiscretion of their progenitors—the author, imbued with sentiments of enlarged philanthropy, will scarcely be cenaur. d for any effort to restrain the vices of the age, by the humble instrumentality of his Vade Mecu-u.
