Scholar's-and spectators made quite an assemblage, and the old church was made to graaa la Lcr very foundations with the oppres "sion of the large concourse of people. The Performance was extraordinary forihis neigh- . Lorhood. The execution of the different piec cs of vocal music was such as to reflect much 'credit on both teachers and pupils ; and while he scholars rested their Toicc-u, they were en - llvcued ty the singing of glees, duetts, na tional airs", fc'c.'by the instructors, whose voi ce? were accompanied with the "fiddle," sec onded by the bass viol; 'making our very hearts to dance, and "our heads, feet . and Lands involuntarily to strike time to their harmoni ous, merry tones. This seieuce deserves more attention than it has hitherto received amongst nt, and we feel assured, judging from ths ia tres manifested by old and young, that hencc forth it will receive that share of our eacour agment which its attainment demands. The ' performance was continued to a late hour, " none appearing to tire of this delightful em ployment. ' A collection was raised for the benefit of the bass violinist, who, occasionally during the term, bad visited the various clas im Sniu" ..mfirU' tvnrrt offered, 7,v k met"ber of the New Washington class, on ' able manner ia which the teachers con . ducted the different schools, and also as to the benefit of singing societies ia general, which w as followed by a unauimous vole of thanks to the- teachers. Then all dispersed and every ilfing was soon quiet, except occasionally tho jingle of bells, and of the Urge asieaiblge nothing could be seen but rare glimpses of a pair of licads, moving behind a snowbank. ' I am informed that seine of the b'Loys ap- ' pl'nd the 'heel and too" accompaniment to "music, and continued their festival for some Vim after the close of the consort, in shaps f i "breakdown;" and, in lad, such was the furor created for music, that the notes of Yan k.e9 Doodle, or Bloody Fit-Id of Bnena Yists, cte heard next friorning emanating from al most a very house in our village, until the very 1iest h'our to which the performers could pro- tract their Slav with us.

Devastation op Racoon. From Burmah inlciligencj has been received of a terrible conflagration which de-Tasted Ragoon on the ljth of December. In a few hours it destroy -d tislit..n brick warohouses, one hundred and eighty tiraVcr houses, and three hundred bamboo dwelling places.

British Canadian RccisrxTS. Our coun trymen are very apt to ct excited at any movement on the part of Gn.-at Britain, and therefore they look upon tha retin a of regi ments to Canada as "a speck of war." They entirely overlook the fact that five out of the eight roguLirly stationod Canadian regiments! were despatched to the Crimea, and in view of tua hoped for psification of Europe, the Ca- t naiian provinces aro to bo placed in thc same position as before the Anglo-Prcnch alliance against Russia. Another Cnrncn Property DirncrLTY. A suit has been brought against the Roman Catholic Bishop of Chicago, to recover under a contract for building a church. The Bishop denies tho validity of the debt, as it was made in his Fpirituai capacity. The courts of Illi nois will, probably, permit him to pay in his spiritual capacity, if tho distinction is of con sequence to him; but it is doubtful whether the Bishop will thus be allowed, by a common sense jury, to repudiate his obligations alto gether on such Jesuitical grounds.

Y., the New-Yorkers have built a dam across the Chemung river, in order to turn its waters into Chemung canal. That canal extends to the Seneca Lake, and discharges its waters there.

Dr. Beale, tho Philadelphia dentist, was honored by the dentists ol New York with a public reception, on Friday last a week. Dr. Bealo gave a history of his misfortunes, in which he acquitted his accuser of all blame, arid expressed his belief that she was honest in her convictions of his guilt. A cotaufittee 0f Philadelphia ladies who subsequently wait ed upon the mother-in-law of thc prosecutrix, to get assistance in obtaining Jus release, learned from herthat the family were wed sat- isfied that the alleged ofhmce had not been committed. lie thought the young lady ami her husband would long since have pronounced him innocent, but for the fear that he would prosecute them for damages, altho' Gd knew he would do nothing of the kiud. However, by the aid of his friends he had regained his liberty, and was once more surrounded by his family. Since his release he was happy to say (Lot mo of thc first and bent inou in Philadel phia had given him strong proof of their be lief in his innocence, by sending to his office their wives and daughters unattended. . A Cave with a man is it. On tho 20th ult, a band of laborers on the Central Raih uad, ia Allegheny county, Va, on Cadyrs section, pen- I etrated in a cave, tho mouth of which was a- bout 005 feet from Jackson's river. Some of the workmen entered it, and continuing out their course, passed under the river r.nd came out on thc other sida of it. In the cave was found thc dead body of a hunter, with all the equipments lying near him. About $9000 in bonds, payable to Mrs. Cross, and dated in 1823, were found on the body, which was iu a wonderful state of preservation. Tiio bonds are signed by many of the oldest citizens of Allegheny and Bath counties. JIARRIE D, In Luthersburg, on the 23rd day of Decem ber, 1855, by G. B.

This invention for which a patent has been obtained, commends it self to th attention cf Housekeepers and others, on account of its great simplicity, and tLo cfTotic- al manner inwbi.-ii it accomplished a very desi- J rablc and usoful object " j i no cans ana jars arc constructed wita a ensa- ! ncl around tho moatb, cerr tLo top. iato which tho cover fits loosely. This chinno! is filled with a very ailiesiro cement, preparol for tbo purposa and allowed to harden. In order to seal tha ves sel hermetically, it is oiiij nec&try ti heat tht covrr slightly, a:ri press it into place. It. may be opened with as much easo as itisclosed, byslight jy warming thc top. The ordinary tin cans, used for thc same purpose for which this is intended", cannot bo closed, as is well known w ithout the ail of a tinnr; arc difficult to open, and aro generally so much injured iu opening as to bo usoles3 for future service. Ry this simple contrivance, the process of hcr tnetical sealing is placed conveelectly within tha reach of every individual; and .fruit, vegetables and butter (if properly prepared) msybe kept, with their natural flavor unimpaired, tor an ia definite length of time.
