Dawson requested Presbytery to dissolve relations existing between himself and the First Avenue chureh ot Evansville, and to grant him a letter of'dismissal to the Cincinnati Presbytery. A large audieuee assembled in the evening and the services' were of a most intcrcsting'eharaeter. First, Mrs. E.'T.

Skinner the constitutional questions which were all answered correctly aud then the very impressive ceremony of the “laying on of hands of Presbytery/' where all the members of Presbytery gathered about the candidates, who Knelt, and with placing their hands on their-heads remained standing while the Rev. J. H. Meteor made ordination prayer. Then ever# member taking them by the hand, spoke solemnly yet cheerfully the words, “We give y«6 right hand of fellowship and welcome yon to a part in this ministry.” After singing a hymn the Moderator proceeded with* the installation services of Rev. David VanDvke by | propounding the usual questions to inistor and people, after which the Rev. A. Y. Moore delivered a very caniest and practical charge to the pastor, and the Rev. R. R. Ilawlev delivered a charge equally as good to tjie people, outlining their duties toward the new pastor. The installation prayer was then made by Rev. B Conditt, and after a song had been sang, the benediction was pronounced by the now pastor. ! Thursday Morxixg Sessiox.

Editor Democrat : Dear Sir—lr\ justice to Marion township ami in honor to the Sabbath School Union, we ask yon to publish a few lines in the columns of your valuable paper, as it has l»een. said by some that this township could nopiave a Sunday School Mass Meeting. Now, we propose to say, as a eitrzeu of this township, and one who is interested in its welfare, and with all due regard to the persons that made such reports current, that they have positively, though we hope not width 11 v, misrepresented facts, for on the 11th inst. we had one of the most successful Mass Meetings ever held in the county.. Wo had a moderately large crowd of citizens and v.'ell-be-haved young ladies and gentlemen, who gaved marked attention and lietened with eager ears to the words of wisdom as the so eloquently foil from the lips of the Hon. E. A. Ely in the morning and Revs D. VanDyke in the evening. The Sabbath School interests of Pike county have been too muuh neglected, anil now that a motion has been, made in the right direction, 1 hope the people, whether sinner or saint, will take hold of the work and push i*. on.uutil the grandest ichicvments possible shall he made in the work of bringing up the rising generation in the way they should go. To those from other townships who assisted us, and to the able speakers we return our heartfelt thanks, and hope that they may continue in the good work until their highest anticipations are fully realized.

Mr. Giadish, the subject of this sketch, was born in Warren county, Kentucky, on the 18th day of December, 1809, and removed with his parents to Indiana in 1811, waen the State was a ^Territory, aud settled in what is now called Madison township, Pike county, where he continued to reside until the time of his death.

Slither Gladisli was an uinommou stout man, as well as an industrious one ^nd it is believed that he has done more hard work than any man that ever lived in Madison township. His bonestv we never heal'd called In question. Hevrns a friend to the cause of Christianity, evidenced by bis having built a church at his own cost, known as the Giadish Chapel.
