The Sabbath School anniversary exercises
in the Congregational Church, on the 12th
inst, were highly interesting. An anthem
appropriate to the occasion, was sung at the
opening. The one hundreth Psalm was then ; 'fication and growth in grace.
recited, and prayer offered by the Pastor.— ‘
After the singing of another sweet hy'mn,be-
ginning “Saviour, listen to our prayer,” the i be unfaithful tothe great doctrines revealed
different classes brought up their offerings.
Twenty anniversary cards, corresponding to
the nnrnber of classes, for which were print-
ed “Our God," “020' Bible,” “Our Liberty,” :
“Our Country,” and which also contained
the names of the class,the teacher and the
scholars,together with the motto of the class,
its anniversary offering, its New Year’s gift
and an experience, a sentiment, wish, or
prayer, testified as to what they had done
during the past year. They hail collected
$186.98. Of this sum one class, The Branch-
es, contributed $55.68, thus vindicating their
title to the name “.L’rcelsz'or," which they
bore last'year. May they continue to keep
their position at the head of. the classes! We
Were sorry to notice the absence of designs,
on thi= occasion. There was a space on the
cards for a description of them,but on nearly
all of them it was blank. As they added a
very interesting feature to the last anniversa-
ry, we hope they will not be overlooked
when the next shall have come. If the
classes cannot do any more, let all do at least
as much as “Little Dew Drops," who brought
up a mound of beautiful flowers,vfrom the
conservatory of Mr. Alden‘. ,
The Treasurer’s Report by Mr. Wm. H.
Saxton, exhibited a flourishing condition of
the finances. Between three and four hun-
dred dollars had bet u contributed, most of
which had been expended for various objects.
Hon. Myron L Mason, the Secretary, made
an encouraging report of the attendance,
condition of the library, die. The roll con-
tained a larger number of scholars now than
ever before. Over one hundred new and ex-
cellent books had been added to the library,
which now numbers 658 volum cs, all in good
order,and eagerly sought after by the scholars-
“The school is in a most excellent condition,”
he said in conclusion, “and promises to be a
most valuable auxiliary to the Church, and
those who have at heart the prosperity and
good influence of the Church cannot feel in-
different to the Sunday School, which has
been aptly styled its “nursery.” For under
Divine guidance and favor, it is to its Sun-
day School that the Church must look in a
great degree for increase of membership,and
earnest, faithful workers in the Lord’: Vine-
yard. In this report, the last, probably,
which the undersigned will ever render,he
will be permitted to express the hope that
the School will long enjoy that Divine guid—
ance and favor, and be the birthplace of
many a Christian hope and aspiration, event-
ually to be crowned with bliss eternal in the
Kingdom of Christ, our Redeemer."
A very cheering part of the exercises was
the distribution of premiums to the School
by the Superintendent, John N. Belts, Esq,
and the Pastor, Rev. A. J. Hetrick’. One
hundred and seventy odd presents were made.
some of which were for constant attendance,
and others for making a perfect recitation of
Shorter Catechism. The latter were kindly
furnished by a good friend of the school,
Mrs. M. K. '
The Poster was now about to proceed with
the other exercises, when Mr. Mason stepped
forward and said: .
“Something seems to be omitted here, Mr.
Hetrick, and I ask your permission, and the
kind ,indulgencc of this congregation, for a
few momen's, while I supply this omission.
This is to me a very interesting occasion,
and not the least interesting feature of it,has
been the presentation of premiums and gifts
to the scholars by yourself and the Superin-
tendent. And now, at the close of the dis-
tribution, it gives me pleasure to say, that
yourself, the Shepherd of the flock have
been remembered also.
I have been deputed by two ladies, mem<
bers of Miss Leavenworth’s class, to present
to you, as a token oflbeir esteem and regard,
a copy of the Holy Scriptures, a large Fam-
ily Bible, elegantly bound, printed on fine
paper, with pages for a Family Record, and
for Family Portraits, and han‘dsomely illus-
trated with steel engravings. It is a beautiful
volume; but its chief value lies, not in its
beauty, but rather in the words of wisdom
and eternal life which it cont-tins; as the
jewel box, however costly, is of little worth
when compared with the gems within it.
This sacredbook, (said Mr. Mason, laying
hishand upon it,)is a' treasure incstimable.—
Without it, we should be poor indeed,-though
possessing mines of gold and diamonds.—
\Vith it, we are wealthy, though we have lit-
tle on earth besides. Within its leaves, if
you search carefully,dilligently and with true
christain faith, you will find the Sword of
the Spirit, the armor of Truth, the assdrance
of victory over all evils in this world, and
the sure promise of happiness inconceivable
after you shall have gone to
‘That undiscovered country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns.‘
Please accept this Bible, Mr. Hetrick, as a
tribute of Christian friendship and love.—
And may the Holy Spirit aid you in studying
its pages, and enable you to learn from it
' those lessons of wisdom, which, for many
years, shall afford joy and comfort to those
who may attend upon your ministratrons."
In response,'the Pastor said, “I have been
thinking, my friends, While listening to the
remarks of Mr. Mason, of what a distin-
guished infidel once said. He had just re-
turned from France, and while sitting in the
City Hotel on Broadway, N. Y., surrourded
by many of the leading men ofhis time,who
had come to do him homage, he predicted
that in five years thtre would not be a Bible
in America. And I have been wondering
how the spirit of that departed infidel would
feel, could it look in upon this scene, this af-
ternoon. Many times five years have come
and gone since that spirit, then clothed with
flesh and blood, uttered this prediction, and
yet the Bible, so far from disappearing from
America, is almost universally diffused thro’
it. There is scarcely an intelligent, respect-
able family, from Maine to California, from
the lakes to the gulf,in which it is not found
and in which, however much its truths may
be neglected, it is not look upon as the Book
of all books. Besides, it is so precious to thou:
sands and tens of thousands, scattered all
over this and other lands, that rather than
part with it, they would endure the most
cruel persecution and even death itself in its
most revoltingform. Multitudes prize it for
its glorious,lifc-giving revelations and regard
it as the most suitable and at the same time,
the most valuable gilt they can present to
their friends. How many Bibles are thus
given away from time to time. I have just
presented quite a number, in the name of a
good friend, to some of the members of this
school, and now here is another present-
ed to myself by two members of the same
school. What strong evidence is thus furn-
ished usxof the high opinion in which the
Bible is held in this country. It is, undoubt-
edly, testifying to the worth of this blessed
book, when it is preferred to other valuable
and interestihg works, as a gift for a friend.
Certainly, nothing gaudy, nothing magnifi-
cent of a purely human origin, can, for a
moment be compared with it. Were it print-
ed only on a scroll of coarse paper or parch-
ment; were it bound only in plain muslin, it
would still constitute a present, any one
might be thankful for; but when it is gotten
up in such fine style as this and with so much
taste, it constitutes a present, calling for no.
feigned gratitude, and “flinty is the heart”
that refuses to render it.
As for myself, I cannot but feel deeply
grateful to those who have so kindly remem-
beer me on this joyful occasion.and,al-
though I have not proved myself worthy of
emu Gazette
such remembrance, yet I shall never cease to
appreciate it. This beautiful family Bibk will
constitute another bright link in the chain,
already long, that binds me to Westport. It
will serve to remind'me of this interesting
anniversary, of the good ladies who donated
it, and especially of Him who has raised up
such generous friends, and who has followed
me with loving kindness and tender mercy,
all my days. Moreover, itwill be an encour-
agement to me to study it more faithfully,
that I may discover those great and beautiful
truths, which sometimes lie beneath the sur-
face, nnd bring them forth for our mutual ed-
I shall al—
2 ways look upon it as a testimonial of ‘rcgard
i and esteem,’ and praying God that I may not
l 'n it, and thanking you, air, for your word of
; wisdom, I now cordially and thankfully ac-
: ccpt it.”
i A few practical remarks by one of the
teachers, Mr. George C. Lees, singing again,
&c., and these entertaining and we doubt not
i profitable exercises were brought to a close.
' May all who participated in them, be inspir-
ed by tlem to be more zealous and faithful
in working for the Master! ii
The ninetieth birthday of Mrs. Polly Nash
was celebrated at her house in Green's Farms,
on Tuesday-afternoon of last week. Her
birthday occurred several weeks since, but
the celebration of the event was postponed
for a time on account of the interesting union
religions meetings which Were then being
held in that vicinity. Mrs. Nash is still hale
and hearty, and warmly welcomed her guests
on this occasion. Some forty persons were
. present at dinner, including children, grand-
: children, and great-grand-children. Long
' may she continue in good health.
Mr. ‘and ,Mrs. Martin Godfrey of Cross
Highways, celebrated their tin wedding, last
' eveni‘r‘ig, (Jan. 20th.)
We condense the following items from the
Advertiser, of the 17th inst :
On‘Thursday evening last, Rev. J.'R. Wil-
liams was ‘surpriscr” and presented with
$100.—Rcv. J. Vinton Received $150 at hrs
donation party Jan 8,—A man named Thomp-
son has been sent to Bridgeporl jail for steal-
ing an overcoat from the residence of Mrs.
S. Frasier.—We have been shown a silver
watch which~has been in use over'a century
and a quarter. It was formerly owned by
Thomas Fitch, Esq, Governor of the Cole-
ny of Connecticut, as will be seen by the
following inscription, which is on the insrdc
of the case: “This watch was carried by
Gov. Fitch of Norwalk, more than forty
years, and was purchased from one of his
heirs October, 1789.” It was also owned
and used about forty years by Seth Taylor,
Esq., and is now in possession of his son,
our fellow townsman—John W. Taylor.
Danbury.
A school house has recently been built at
a cost of about $30,000 including land, furni-
ture, die. The building is three stories, with
basfient. The basement is divided into
several apartments, to be used for fuel and
store rooms for the furnaces, of which there
are three of the Leslie patent, and the two
back rooms, in which the oldgr scholars will
leave their surplus clothing. From each of
these rooms a door communicates with the
playgrounds, and a stairway leads to the first
floor, on which are four rooms, 22 1-2x30
feet. A broad hall runs the length of the
building,and another crosses it. The cross ,
htills have been made wide enough to admit
of a sub-partition being put up through the
centre, about six feet in height,against which
can be hung surplus clothing. The second
floor is similar to the first. The rooms on
this floor are for the primary department.—
On the third floor are four more rooms, con-
siderably larger than the rooms below, as the
cross-hall is here left out. These rooms are
for the older scholars, and are 30 feet square.
The two on the north are connected by fold-
ing doors, to admit of holding exhibitions.—
The recitation room for the classes of this
floor is over the front entrance. It is well
lighted, and peculiarly adapted to such pur-
pose. The entire building has been planned
for utility, and the design is carried out faith-
fully.
The play grounds are not yet completed,
but they promise to be large and conveni-
ent.
Having become tired of living at the jail
at public expense, P. T. Barnum has made a
change of base. Ungrtteful fellow.
At a private 'school at the lower end of
Ma'n street, which has recently had a vaca-
tion, twenty of the twenty-four scholars fail-
ed to appear on commencement dav. An
investigation showed that the twenty were
down with the measles.
Chas. II. Crofut and lady celebrated their
tin wedding on Monday night, Jan. 13.
At Concert Hall, on Tuesday evening,Rev.
A. L. Frisbie, of the lst Congregational
church, gave his views of Salem Witchcraft.
The subject was opened with a view of witch
craft in general, in which the speaker took
the position that the persecution of ' witches
was not of Puritan origin, but had its begin-
ning in England,and- was continued with in-
creased rigor in Scotland before it was heard
of in Massachusetts, a circumstance which
should have its u‘ight in our made up Puri-
tan character. IIis description of the begin-
ning of witchcraft in Salem village, was
highly interesting. He traced the malady
from its inception in the first division of the
little church, up to the hour when it took
tangible form in the hearts and minds of a
dozenyoung girls and two superstitious slaves
at the house of Rev. Mr. Paris. Then suC'
ceedezl a description of its ravages, compre-
hending the fits and antics of the girls—their
charges of witchcraft against an inoffensive
woman—her seizure and trial—the excite-
merit of the people—the madriess of the
church-the misery of the victims as quickly
succeeding one another they were dragged
from their homes to undergo the mockery
of a trial and the torment of an imprison-
‘ment or the horror of an execution—the
scenes and incidents of this reign of fanati-
cism—the gibbitting of the condemned—the
wide spreading of the terrible error,until the
person of no one was safe. The rise and pro-
gress of this atrocious evil was described
with such faithfulness that the blood of the
listener boiled with indignation or curdled
with lrorror.-—00ndensed from Times.
