TUE ODD FELLOWS' CEMETERY.—The an-
Mittl report of the Odd Fellows' Cemetery Company for
the year ending Novtniber 30th has just been issued.
Tne Committee on Grounds say :
During the year the duties appertaining to a super
vision of the ground have been attended to, the neellnAJl
and gutters placed in good condition as early in the sea
son as possible, and the appearauce of the ground has
given general satisfaction to the visitors during the year.
As little labor as pasalbla has bean sesplosed durin g thr
year, but notwithstanding all efforts, the amount wantei
for labor will annually increasoi as the cemetery is (nun
time to time Improved by railings, monuments, &c., the
cost of removing surplus earth is increased by the sub
stitution of the slow wheelbarrow for the pre vionsquicker
mode by horse and cart ; in fact, in some of the sections
the cart can hardly be used for fear of doing damage.
The Committee on Grounds i-ny that they know of no
extensive improvements during the coming year needed
upon the grounds, excepting, perhaps, that it would be
prudent to have the atone well on the front of the ground
Repainted, the iron railing thereon painted, and eke e -
lump in front of the chapel retouched and repaired. AB
it win not be many years before a heavy stone wall will
Le absolutely necessary along the whole of the rear end
of the cemetery, costing frotalive to ten thousand dollars,
the committee, owing to the fact that the company will
non he out of debt, suggest to the Board the propriety of
:setting aside from the surplus revenue of the company,
from time to time, such sums as can he spared, to create
.a fund, to be kept solely for the performance of the ne
t,essitY named.
The total receipts of the company during the past
year have been $4,826.06. the chief source of revenue
being the issue of permits, from which 53,057.50 was
derived. The balance in the hands of the treasurer,
November 30, was W 5.73.
The number of luleiments made in the cemetery during
the year has been. 1,298

SECOND REFORMED DI:Tell CIIIIRCIL—One of the most
interesting occasions of the kind that we have ever wit
114eKRA took place at the Second itetortacci Dutch Church,
Seventh street, above Drown, on the morning of Christ.
nuts day. According to previous announcement, the In•
Taut gaul of that church, 5116 6f the Isms! ?v..' liscl
managed in Philadelphia, mat in the body of the church
at the appointed hour, 103 o'clock, for the public exhibi
tion of whatthey had evidently been previously trained for
with groat ca r e, 14- eflitieht Superintendent, A. Af.
Spangler, Esq. The exercises were conducted under the
direction of the Rev. Dr. Fisher—who now temporarily
fills the pulpit of this church, recently rimmed by the re.
signation of Dr. Berg—and were opened with a Volun
tary- on the organ, by Mr. C. Collins, in his usual artistic
style. This was followed with a recitation by the
children or the 121st Psalm ; prayer by Dr. Fisher, a
hymn of Praise and Welcome, and a hymn entitled
" Marching Along," sung by the Main hchool, in charge
of their Superintendent, D. W. C. Moore, Esq. Dlr.
Spangler next occupied a few moments with some well
expressed and appropriate remarks, respecting the
year's experience and present condition of the Mimi.
The fact that five of the children had been removed - by
death during the year, in contrast with the fact that
during the four previous years there had not a single
death occurred among them, formed a touching feature
or his remarks. After a hymn by the Choir, thole was
an address by 3lr. Stephen Paxton, a missionary CM-
DlOYed by the First Rd - 011MA Dutch Church of this city,
and one of the best specimens living of an honest back
woods Sunday School missionary, Ills remarks were
evidently en4oyed by old and youpg. _TM singing of the
children, as a whole, was a superior specimen of vocal
culture under the difficulties which must attend the
training of so large a number of very small children.
The distribution of gifts, books mainly, was, of souses,
the feature for the little folks. The benediction wad
pronounced by the Rev. Dr. Fisher.

LAST . E.l - s,:iisci.---The forty-sixth anniversary of the Sun.
day-schools connected with the First Baptist Church,
corner of Broad and Arch streets, was celebratesi in that
edifice last evening, in the presence of a very large and
delighted congregation. The preparations for this an
nual occasion were unusually elaborate, and the per
formance by the pupils throughout fully sustained the
high promise of the , programme. The exercises were
divided la two parte, the first having opened with a
hymn entitled lfarch Along," sung, in excellent style,
by the Hain school. The next feature was a hymn,
Ir pilsries Bard,” sung by the 5e1,601, and the choru s by
little children, executed with pleasing effect.. This was
followed with au Opening Address, by Master Frank
Himself, and the hymn by the school, and a dialogue on
" Fxliggerafjoili" by fit 1 4YS i also, a dialogue on
the Bible, by three girls; both were very creditably
given. After several more hymns there was a duet,
and organ accompaniment by Professor Michficl Cross,
which was followed with a Collection Address, by Halter
Prank Roberts, and the collection itself—a liberal one,
we are glad to state, us, from the character of the enter.
tainment, it deserved to be. After the collection, the
St ar Spangled Banner" was sung with a patriotic fer-
Tor that would have made Seminal had there been anY
present, tremble and wish themselves in Dixie.
The second part of the exercises was opened with a
beautiful hymn, followed with a poem by Mosier. Wm. F.
Echeelie. The chief feature of the evening was an ex
cellent address by ex-Governor Pollock. The exercises
were concluded with a doxology and benediction,
EXTENT OF THE CONFECTIONERY BUSINESS IN
P 11.4 armour .I.—Few perSOTIR have any concepttoo or
the - enormous amount of fine confectionery annually
made and sold in this city. The statisties of the leading
house, in this department, in Philadelphia, if given in
full, would be looked upon as ahnost incredible; we refer
To the large manufacturing house of Alvaro, E,
man S: Co., Second street, below Chestnut. For several
weeks past these gentlemen have given steady employ
ment to a large force of operatives in getting up what
was deemed by them a E•ligiplnclia *AI and the magni,
tulle of their preparations for this purpose may be in
ferred from the fact that the average work of seine of' the
men in their sugar-plum department has amounted, in
some instances, to neat - 7 lour ihint.l.l . 4.2loo“reas per meek
each. Considering the large number of hands empbyed
In their manufactory, besides a considerable number,
oldie.- dir ctly er indirectly, o..,tekle of their own
fmuso
dials establishment, the aggregate of their goods made
up in the course of a season must be enormous. Yet,
notwithstanding these extraordinary facilities for sup
plying a little world, ire s 0111. d think, with these delicious
edibles. so great was the popular pressure to obtain them,
for some days previous to Christmas day, that the stock
of this house, on the eve of that day, was literally ex
hausted. Of course, with their business elasticity and
resources, their counters will almost immediately resume
their accustomed display of fine confectionery. The fact
of their enormous sales this season is, however, signifi
cant. People have learned that the finest and purest
confections are the kind to use, and E. G. Whitman
Co.'s is the place to get them.
HOLIDAY PRESENTS AT OAKFORDS'.—Afessrs.
Charles Oakford and Sons, under the Coutinentil, have
evidently, this season, made R signal hit in their holiday
preparations, as we infer from the fact that they have
unauestionably sold a nreator number of 45 presents" at.
a greater aggregate value than any other one house in
the country. Their following departments have been,
and etill continue to be, crowded daily with buyers, en
leeting handsome goods at low pricey Ladies , Vatteg
Yeas flats and Cape for Gentlemen; LoAiee' Paris
made Shoes; Rats for Children and Misses; Gentlemen's
Furnishing and Fine Military Goode.
