Reiber, Esq., was chosen Secretary of meeting, and ("apt. H. A. Ayres a member in place of Mr. W. A. Stein, who was unable to act, and also made permanent Secretary. The best mode of proceedure in order to get the whole county interested in the Centennial, was fully discussed and after several ways were considered it was decided to request the Justices of the Peace in the different townships and towns, outside of Butler, to call meetings and have their districts repre sented by two delegates in a County Convention to be held in Butler on No vember 21st. to fix a date for celebrating the Centennial. This will give plenty of time to the townships and towns to hold their meet ings and no doubt the Justices appoint ed will see to it that the meetings are called at an early date and the two del egates sent from each township and borough to the Convention, Nov. 21.

Years of my life are past and i*one Like a tale of yesterday; Like a rose bud cut at morn Ere night shall fade away Childhood and youth on wings flew by And years grew on apace, A home was made by willing hands And babes smiled in my face. My children all have grown and gone. From the little home in the vale: With blessings still I bless them all And shall my prayers prevail. Four score and ten years have I seen, And now blest years farewell; In hope I lift my soul above To join where Jesus dwells. The years are old but I am young. Nearing life's blissful shore, To sing on harps never unstrung. Pslams of love ever more. SEC'Y. CHURCH NOTES.
