On Saturday, J uly 30, was held the Sabbath school celebration intlie grove,..near Alter’s mill, in Union tp.

We had the pleasure of writing orders for. 210 Sabbath school scholars and teachers. The dinners were splendid and'plenty for all. No pains were spared to make strangers welcome. There "were thirty or more from Rensselaer. At the close of the exercises of the day Mr. Isaac Alter once more proved giving a-vay over 300 glasses of, lemonade. B’pace will not admit us to state all points of interest, but we must say the people in that part of the county are alive to the interests of their children and deserve the praise, encouragement and prayers of all Christian people. God speed them in thCir
