Ox .N.ou i \ • veiling, tho 22nd
in t. the Mile skiing at the resi
dents of Mr. John Moore, proved a
marked sucooss.o The coinpanv
large and appreciative was cordially
greeted by the urbane host aud his
courteous lady, aud conducted to
the brilliantly illuminated and
beautiful apartments within. Tho
occasion was solemnizo, by prayer
and hymn "Rock of Ages." Tho
programme, well arranged by Miss
Cassio Burkhart, was then taken up
'I ha opening exercises being a reci-
tation by Miss Grace Burkhart "The
raising of Jairus's daughter" Misi
Grace as upon former occasion,prov
ed herself "au fait" retiring amid
plaudits from] the auditory. There
wore two other recitations "Bern-
ardo Dol Carpió" by Miss Hona
Bell, "Mariner's* dream" by httlo
Miss Maggie Bailey. Respectively
these were laudably rendered Mis>
Nana evincing a olear aud retentive
memory, Miss Maggie in mode.^t
but good acceuf, cl timing the close
^tention of tho audience Mr. Car-
penter,called upon to fill a vacancy,
gave a reading, a poem entitled
"Courage" The selection was good
and well road. The ¿music, alway a
charming attraction, seemed, th a
i ve ling unusually fiine, aud gave
satisfaction to ears mo3t cultivated
Mrs. Moore and Mrs. McCainly ex-
• cuted pieces of dash and brillian-
cy. Vocalists of high culture sanp-(
Among these were Mrs. Cad Na-~
tion, MissesVauzaiidt, Dyer aud Ida
Blakely, Messrs Herd, Hotchkiss
and Mock. The facetious feature
of the entertainment lent an attrac
tion wonhy of mention. These con-
sisted of two readings and an attemp
tad auction of a 'Whistle,' (We will
subset]nontly accouitt for the pre .en
ce of the instrument (?) "Schnider's
Tomatoes" was most amusingly ren-
dered by Mr. Hotchkiss; as a "lin-
quist" we congratulate him, (Bro.
Hotchkiss, not Schuider.) But
"Catching a mouse" put resibles
upon tender hooks! Our president
with striking origiualy just "out-
Maria-ed Maria, or Joshua-ed Josli
ua" either in tins, t'oilection wns
G. 05 and a whistle. Hence the
whistle, which I believe, is still to
be had at the loiv price cf 10 cents.

aration of much more than oldhtary
merit. We have sold (15) gross
of it ainoe may last, and hijve no-
ticed, that tho ssle of it aiiioe the
Chill season has been over hta con-
tinued longer than any othjir Chill
remedy that we have handlol. We
