Mr. DOUTKIOK, our merchant tailor, finds | attachment to his old home stronger than his desire for wealth, and has decided to close up business here, and return to his home in Beth- I lehem. As an evidence of appreciation of the patronage bestowed upon him here, lie pro poses during the few weeks which remain be fore his departure to offer his stock of elegant furnishing goods, and winter suitings at greatly reduced orices. Those who have the means to do so, can make money by making their purchases for the present year now. A paper on "The Disadvantages of City; Boys," I>> Rev. WASHING ION GLADDEN, of Springtichl. Mass.. is announced for an early number of <S7. .V icltuhts. The article is said to be based entirely on personal statistics, gathered from a hundred prominent business men. concerning their surroundings, habits of li e, ets., during boyhood. They exhibit a remarkable showing of the "Disadvantages of Citv Boys," and enforce strongly the au thor's hints toward a successful life. The paper, moreover, is addr< ssed directly to the boys themselves. Conductor JOHN BECK, of s. L. & S. RR., suffered a paralyt ie shock .Saturday afternoon. He was apparently in his u mil good health at 3 o'clock when his train left the Court House, but before lca\ ing' The Barclay depot lie was prostrated by a stroke of paralysis, which instantly rendered him helpless and unconscious. He was at once taken to his home, where he still remains in the same con dition. Mr. BUCK appeared in his usual health and buoyancy of spirits when lie boarded his train, and it is believed had no warning of the attack which so suddenly rendered him helpless. Ilis condition is most critical, and his physicians say that there is but the faint est hope of recovery. Mr. BUCK has always been a kind hearted, 11 generous man. and lias hosts of friends who will minister to his wants, and do every thing in their power to restore him. I*. S.—Just as we are going to press, we ' are informed of Mr. BUCK'S death, which oc- 1 cur red at 1 :20 this afternoon. 1 Apropos to the Robert Rakes Centennial, ! to be celebrated this year in England, Rev. ! EDWARD EGGLKSTON has contributed to the ! Midwinter Scribner a paper of "Present Phases of Sunday School Work," in which he makes some friendly criticisms of methods of ! teaching much in vogue, and f certain false tendencies apparent to him in much of the best meant effort. Mr. EGGLSTON lias all his I life been identified with Sunday school work, i and the Church of Christian Endeavor, in I Brooklyn, has been doing unique and success i ful mission-work by the methods to which lie inclines. At the beginning of a year in which i there will be much meaningless panegyric on the system, his suggestions may well dial-1 lenge the attention of thoughtful Christian people, and indeed of parents everywhere. Tired Out. [Can any one tell who is the author of these j delicate and tender lines?] He does well who does his best ; Is lie weary? let him rest. Brothers! I have done my best, 1 am weary—let me rest. After toiling oft in vain. Rallied, yet to struggle fain : After toiling long, to gain Little good with inickle pain, Let me rest. But lay me low, Where the hedgeside roses blow: Where the little daises grow, Where the winds a-maying go; Where the footpath rustics plod, Where the breeze-bowed poplars nod: Where the old woods worship God, Where His pencil paints the sod; Where the wedded throstle sings. Where the young bird tries his wings; Where the wailing plover sw ings, Near the runlet's rushing springs! Where, at times, the tempest's roar. Shaking distant sea and shore. Still will rave old Burnesdulc o'er. To tie heard by me no more! There, beneath the breezy west. Tired and thankful let me rest, Like a child that sleepeth best On its mother's gent 1< breast.

HI NOEREORD spent his holiday vacation in Binghamtoii, but is home again, and ready to resume his duties at lIUMI'IIRKY , BROTHERS A TRACY'S factory. When Mr. and Mrs. W. K. MARSHALL went home on Friday evening they found their house tilled with a company of congeni al neighbors, who had "dropped in" to spend the evening. The pleasant affair had been kept a profound secret, and the host and hostess were taken completely by surprise. The visitors, however, had made bountiful provision in the way of refreshments, and the evening was most enjoyable spent. Rev. CO I RTLANDT WHITEHEAD, of Beth lehem, occupied the pulpit of Christ Church \ esterday. Ile renders the service admirably, and is a scholarly, earnest and impressive preacher. Both discourses yesterday were full of seed thoughts, which could not have failed to find lodgement in the heart and mind of the most indifferent listener. The Rever end gentleman's diction is perfect, ~/hiic his earnestness hears testimony to his entire con viction of the truths of the Bible, and that he lias an experimental as well of intellectual i knowledge of the Saviour. There has hcen considerable interest created over a ease which has been in progress in this place during the week. Mrs. Caroline F. Wright, w ho died in June last, left a will, the provisions of which are nearly as follows: To Mary S. Norwood she gives $500: J. D* Gosline $500; Edwin B. Goslinessoo; Geo. Gosliue $500; Mary E.

Section 20. Act of May 1,1854, says: "That immediately after the annual election of teachers in each school district of the state, and befere the opening of the schools for the ensuing term, there shall be a meeting of the directors or controllers and teachers of each district; at which meeting the directors or controllers shall decide upon a series of school books, in the different branches to be taught during the ensuing sche'M year; which books, and no other, shall be used in the schools of the district during said period." Such is the law, with this exception, that books cannot now be changed more frequent ly than once in three \cars. J. P.
