The house was crowded to overflowing, and the exercises opened with an overtuie, song and chorus by seven ladies and gentlemen, which was prepared for the occasion by Messrs. Miller and Fenley. Their solids, jokes, otc, afforded much merriment. The children, each in turn, appeared on the stage xvith pieces well committed, and their sweet child ish voices, both m recitation and song, gave joy to every parents heart. All, both young and old, did their parts nobly, and the recitations cf Misses Lottie Spenr and Clam Bender deserve particular mention. The tableaus 'The Drunkards Home" and 'Sign ing the Pledge," were an impressive feature of the evening. Tableau, dialogues, charades and recitations, interspersed with vocal and instru mental music, all well executed, made the hours pass most pleasantly until eleven o'clock when all dispersed feel ing that the tunc had been well spent and hoping for frequent returns of such uutertainments.
