Sunday School Celebration in St.
Matthew.
Mr. Editor?Although your paper is
?tot specially devoted to religious matters,
1 supposo uu occasional introduction ef
the subject will nut be objcctionablo to
your reader*; The fact is, I think a lit
tle more on this subject, and less about
politics would be beneficial to us all.
Taking this view of the tuattcr, 1 must
beg your indulgence in a description of
a Sunday School jubilee which took
place .on Friday, September 17'h inst., at
Antiucli Church, in the lower Bart of St.
Matthews. *
The day was beaut if ul. It scctucd ns
if Providence smiled upon the undertak
ing, so favorable was every circumstance.
At 10 o'clock, the appointed hour, Mr.
J. H. Felder the Superintendent of the
School formed the procession iu the fol
lowing order:
1st. The ..white School, the girls being
in front according to size, and the boys
iu the rear iu the same order; then at
an interval followed the colored Scliool.
Jn this order with beaming faces, and
light and merry step, this happy little
army wooded its way into the Church
to bear the speakers appointed to
address them. I must confess Mr. Edi
tor, that just here, the writer's infirmi
ties commenced to overcome him as he
looked back under the trees where the
tables were laid, and witnessed the mov
\u? of boxes and barrels from place to
place, and v"Mlld hear the clattering of
plates and spoons, What could all t his
bustle mean? It was ccri-..''?'y very ?'jT
uificant; so much so tIi.it it required an
effort for .vcak human nature to prepare
the rabid for tbo intellect ual feast soun
to be enjoyed.
The number of poisons iu the Church
I suppose could not be less thau four or
five hundred. There were also many
outside, who could not be seated on ac
count of the crowd. As soon us the
.children were all arranged, the minds of
the audience were prepared for the eu
-tertaiunient before tboni by the singing
?of that beautiful hymn, "When the
Morning Light Drives away the Night,
Jic." The hcv. U. J. Edwards then
gave out the lUOth hymn, "Iu the
bright Seasou of thy Youth, &c," alter
?the singing of which be oiibrcd up
prayer, and road the b'th chapter of Dcu
fteronomy. After tho rendiug of the
f?blc the Superintendent gave out the
205th picco in the little Sunday School
Look, "Say Brothers, will you Meet us,
ike.** This hymn was sung by the girls
taking one part and the boys another,
and was really beautiful und impressive.
*4'he SekooJ next sungj-'Hurk, (he Sab
ibath Bells are Ringing, kc." after which
Che Superintendent in a fow remarks to
the children, pleading their attention and
good behavior, introduced the first speak
er, Hcv. Win. 11 ut to.
I approach the task of sketching the
remarks of these gentlemen with eon
-aideruble diffidence, so great is my four
of doing them injustice. My uim, huw
cvor, i? principally to give the direction
in which they led the thoughts of their
bearers, and if I fail iu giving their
speeches their duo weight, the public
will please attach the blame where it- be
longs, that is to the reporter. Mr. lint
ito's addresa was pi?rttctilorljf adapted to
tho occasion, being clothed iu language
whioh placed it entirely within the grasp
of his youthful audience.
Ho said that the invitation for him to
uddress the School was unexpected as he
could 'not sec what he had dune to morit
tho honor j he supposed though that the
Superintendent knew that he loved tile
SubLath School, and he attributed the
invitation to that alone. He mentioned
that by consent among the speakers, thp
task assigned him was to talk to the
children, so he would direct his remarks
principally to them.
He touk ns the foundation of his dis
course this passage of Scripture, "Seek
ye first the Kingdom of God and His
righteousness, and all these things shall
be added unto you." He described
these things to which the Saviour refers,
as wordly pursuits, such as honor, riches
and pleasure, and asked if there was any
little boy or girl in his presence who did
uot some times think of them, und de
sire to obtain them. This was natural,
and many think they will seek these
thinks first, and afterwards heavenly
things: but what, he usked, does Christ
say '( His language is clear and emphat
ic, "Seek yc first tho Kingdom of Cod
and His righteousness." He cited also
the uncertainty of human life as an im
portant rcusuu that we should seek
heavenly things early, but cautioned the
children uot to seek them for any world
ly motive, such as honor, riches, Ac., for
Uud docs tint promise them. There arc
many iu this world who are very good,
but very poor. Poverty in this world's
goods makes little difference with the
true Christian. It is far bettor for us to
have little here, and much in Heaven,
than to have all we want here, aud at
last lose our souls. He then illustrated
by the well known story of Lazarus and
Dived, and asked who would not prcler
to be a Lazarus. Mr. Ilutfo concluded
with a word of encouragement to tho pa
rents, for the prospects of tiicir childreu.
The time was when little attcutinu was
paid to Sabbath Schools, but now our
best men were engaged iu them. He
trusted that these goud intiueuces would
be perpetuated.
After the address the School sung the
Ttith piece, "I am a Pilgrim, und I'm a
Stranger." The Superintendent then in
his usual familiar and humorous style,
amused the children with several amus
ing anecdotes illustrative of wholesome
moral and religious truths The happy
effect of his remarks upon the children
was apparent.
He then introduced the next speaker,
Captain Hugo Gr. Sheridan. A brief
outline of -Mr. Sheridan's able und elo
quent address is all that my limited
space will permit, although a full publi
cation would well repay perusal.
He said that the duty assigned him.
siuco he hud come this morning, was to
speak to the grown people, and he would
therefore on it what he iutended to say
^ the children. Besides this, he did
uot .think it neco-^'y to sa3' ? W0lu t?
the children, for hid cxpcrioL.ce bid
taught him that childreu were generali)
juore in earnest about the things which
concerned them thau the parents were.
Thp parents were more concerned about
money and cotton, and making their
children work iu ti e field to make
money, thau they were about the moral
and intellectual culture ol those children.
He appealed to mothers aud fathers to
rehiduiber the responsibilities which were
placed upon them. (Jod has assigned
them duties with which they dare not
trifle. These duties be classified as fol
lows :
1st. Duties which we owe to the com
munity in which we live, or public du
ties.
2d. Duties which we owe to each oth
er, or private duties.
Ho d? !y upon the second
class. These duties, he said, required us
to cducato our children, and prepare
them for citizenship He here defined
the difference between knowledge and in
atruction ; tho former he said is from
within, >:ud may be ucquiied, the latter
is from without aud must ho imparted.
Hcucu (he importance of having our
children well instructed. The means ol
obtaining proper instruction be regarded
as iu our hands. It is truo we aro very
poor, but he was proud of our poverty ;
it was honorable poverty, having boon
acquired in the discharge of noble ?lu
ties. These things he thought need not
deter Us iu the education of our childreriv
He asked if there VrSS a good day school
established iu the community, aud urged
if there was, that it should be well pa
tronized. He was sc.r: if some fanfastio
show, or Robinson's Circus Were to pass
through the country, that hundreds ol
dollars would bo spent to see a monkey
make a fool of himself: Let some of
this money be spent on 'education. He
regarded the Sabbath School as an im
portant lever in arresting the corruption
around us, and as a means uf purifying
and elevating society.
Why, he asked, this poverty which
reigns around us 7 The answer he
thought could be read in the archicves
of a corrupt and despotic government.
Our political corruption could only be
removed by educating our children, and
teaohing them the principles of the Bible,
and never by inciting the races against
each other, or by harboring political ani
mosities. He was convinced that igno
rance could never rule a country. Web
ster had said, "Educate your children
and the government is safe." This he
regarded as the true motto of our peo
ple. He thougut that the black man
could only be elevated by education. In
conclusion in reviewing our political con
dition, bo expressed tho belief that God
would yet bless our country with pros
perity.
After a few pertinent remarks by the
Superintendent on the duty of parents
overcoming every obstacle, and placing
their children in the Sunday School, the
school sang the 71st piece, "I have a
Father iu the Premised Land," also the
7?th "1 want to be an angel, Ac."
After the singing, the last speaker,
Rev. R. J. Edwards, washeaid. Ho in
troduced his remarks by relating several
touching and appropriate instances of
early religious conviction, and argued
therefrom the necessity of those entrust
ed with tho oare of children, attending
early to their wants iu this respect^ He
alluded to Co great efforts which were
made by men everywhere to rescue
themselves from poverty, hut he asked if
tho salvation of tho soul was nut uf fat
greater importance than salvation from
poverty. The soul being of more value
than the body, he urged parents to see
to this matter first in their children.
In the latter part of his address he
impressed upon bis bearers the import
ance of a strict observance of the law of
love, as enjoined upon us by the Scrip
tures, and in conclusion drew a beautiful
picture of the happiness we would expe
rience, if this law could pervade ull our
actions. The address of Mr. Edwards
was particularly pathetic.
When Mr. Ldwurds had concluded,
tho Superintendent informed the chil
dren that the next step in the programme
was the pic nie. He said ho could see
from the Church that the tables were
ready, and he was anxious to go aud see
what was upon them. He could see that
their mothers had taken particular pains
to have their clothing neat and tidy, and
he hoped that they would keep them so.
Ho also hoped that at tho tables they
would do nothing to destroy the good
name they had already won for order and
propriety, but would follow their teach
ers di.cc!i">><J He illustrated his point
by an uiiiU*'?g anecdato o." ; Mttlo boy
he once saw at a candy pulling. Aa i<
frequently happens on such occasions, in
the anxiety of the guests to get at the
fun, they commenced pulling before the
candy was ready, and it was very soft
and unmanageable. These was a little
boy iu the crowd, who, when he got to
the table reached OVOraud took the largest
lump of candy he couid ?oo. After eat
ing as much a=> he could, he thought he
would put the rest in his pocket. He
therefore tried his best tu get it in, hut
every time he put his hand down iu his
pocket, the candy would stick to it, and
follow it out. He told the children that
when they got to tho table he wanted
them to remember this unfortunate little
boy, aud not try to put anything iu their
pockets, as if might come out again.
Tho effect was capital. It was noticed
that the grown people remembered the
candy story as well as the little ones.
The school now sung several beautiful
hymns, after which they Were man lied
to the tables, which groaned under the
weight ol good things, both sweet and
substantial. Tho tables for tho colored
children were set iu another part of the
grove, and 1 noticed wi re equally Well
supplied.
The good conduct of the childreu on
this occasion was a subject of general re-i
mark. Not one single instance of disor-l
der or impropriety can be recorded.
Now, .Mr. Editor^ as I have finished}
the account of the celebration. I cannot
close without one word iu praise of the]
Supertutendcut, Mr. J. H. Felder, who
rir'.ily d-Kcrvc* all that e~n be boot owed
upou him.. Mr. Felder organized this
school about nine months ago from ?
mero handful oi scholars, and by his in
defatigable energy and devotion to the
cause, it llUS already .increased to up
wards of one hundred and fifty. Its
reputation has Bpread it; every direction.
Ilia kind aud accessible manner towards
v , , , ...
his scholars, together with his familiar
but impressive stylo of lecturing, seems
to adapt him particularly to the work.
The community should'feel grateful for
his services. M.

SEI'TKMpEll, 25, 1800.
Mr. Editor?Ou Thursday morning,
tlit?. 10th inst., the different roads aud
paths converging to Prospect Church
from the surrounding vicinity, teemed
with vehicles of every f description, (ex
cept -carts,) carriages and buggies filled
with humanity of all ^ages, sexes and
sizes, of sedate aud pleasant counten
ances, of younger, brighter and more
smiling faces; wagons screaching aud
groauiug under the Weight of?ircl !
nonicthing for the inucr-man perhaps, of
which, more anon. Also little fiuwer
like pedestrians, all moving towards
"Old Prospect Church/' for the purpose
of celebrating the Sunday School at that
place. The parents, t&chers aud chil
dren soon filled the Ckureh, anxiously
awaiting the arrival of one of the speak
ers, and it was even feared by some that
he was unwell, and would not be present.
Hut soon the faces id' all brightened up
at the appearance of the second speaker,
and immediately tin ' procession was
formed about fifty yards from the Both
end of the Church, he; ded by the flag
bearers. Miss Fannie P. >tteu ami Mast? r
Thomas Wannahiaker, ? ho were followed
in regular order, by tin different teach
ers at t ho heads of th ir classes! The
teachers of eaeh class iwure a different
badge, and ribbon Hi'?\ics of different
coloru <listiiiguishcii the ptijoTg of differ
ent classes. Finally the rear was brought
up by the Superintendent, and Secretary
ami the Speakers, oath accompanied by
an attendant. The proccssioti after
marching around the Church once, sing
ing the hymn am gl.id I'm m ibi
army," in which till the teachers and
pupils, even to the smallest, joined in
perfect harmony, marched in the Church
at the door in front of the pulpit, and.
dividing into two columns, filed to their
respective seats, each flag-bearer placing
a flag on either side of the speaker and
to the rear.
After singing and prayer offered b
the Ilev. T. K. Waniianiukcr, a very ap
propriate address was eloquently deliver
ed by Mr. Sheridan, in which, after
complimenting the children, he urged
upon the parents the great importance of
giving their children u proper moral aud
religious education in pref? rcucc to the
accumulation of worldly lucre. After
his address u hymn was sung, which was
followed by a very interesting, appropri
ate and touching address to the Sunday
School children by the llov. T. Iv Wan
m?iitk?fi
The Church was beautifully de?Ofated
with evergreen garlands auu wreaths of
flowers. The speaker stood in front of a
largo and symmetrically arched garland
of evergreen aud flowers on which were
the words of the Saviour to His dcciplcs,
'?Suffer little children to come unto me."
The flags bore the inscriptions, "Feed
my Lambs," aud ' Faith, Hope and
Love."
After singing and prayer the proces
sion marched, tour in front, about two
hundred yards from the Church to n
well filled table, under an o.k grove,
where, after grace suid, ceremony was
laid aside for awhilo.
All hearts seemed light and cheerful.
Everybody seemed to lovo everybody,
love parvnts iind rlo'? <??> love preacher
and teacher, love chickens and pig's, lovo
everybody und everything du the table.
Knives, forks and spoons made a lively
musical (latter from one end of I ho table
to the other. All was life ; all was
cheerful while the inner-man was being
replenished. Then came the "sweet"
table to which justice was done. Thon
pipes were lit and conversations entered
into, and the merry laugh w is hoard.

The Irish Potato.
Spring, Bummer. Foil and Winter Cropa.
It is not generally known that the
Trish Potato can he kept growing i> 11
seasons muking continual crops nil the
year round, but such is tho truth of
experience. To accomplish this thcro
bus to bo three general plantings:
1st. In January aud Fobuary, plant
according to the size of the crop you
propose to cultivate.
2d. In July or August, at any time or
duriug the whole of these months, as
you dig your potatoes for the market or
home consumption, plant all the middle
or smaller sizes, keeping the largest for
the table. This planting will make you
u Pull anil Winter crop which you can
dig and use from October to January.
3d. lu November and December, while
digging and consuming your Fall and
Wilder crops, again plant with the
medium and smaller sized tubers, and
this planting will surely makeyourSpring
Ct'op.
'1 hese three conseculives crops, from
the barrel, or whatever^ quantity you
start with can be made by any persons
who will take the tri uble to do it.
As the mouth af .July is at hand, and
the potato vines dead, I will proceed to
give some necessary rules to he observed
for Summer planting. Pig the potatoes
before sunrise or alter sunset, never
allowing the sunshine to touch them,
and house them by scattering them on
a floor in some dark dry room, for a few |
days?say two days to two weeks. If
the sunshine ever touches them they
will rot in the ground after planting.
Always plant before suini?.; or after sau
fet. The plan aud obvious practice is,
to dig two or more rows at a time, and
save the larger potatoes for the table,
aud to plant all the other s.i.allerones.
The laud should be deeply and closely
turned ovo* pith a turn plow, or spade
and furrows made three feet apart, and
not over .four inches below the surlacc,
for if planted deep as in Spring planting
they will keep dry and ?bt >prour and
come up Flaut deep in dry Summer
weather, and you might ss wujl puttheiii
away in the mummy vaults < f Kg;, pt.
After dropping the potato in the
furrows fill up tho lurrows WiMl any sort
of vegetable mould, or gai'den rubbish,
crop or any sort of grass front the clean
sing of bed?. Walks ur the yaid. and cover;
lightly with soil, leaving the bed level.
Afterward, if grass appears on the bed,
hoe it off?aud keep tbe crop clean?
bedding up as the vines "grow larger arid
larger. 1
It is important and ] roper to plant a
good aud improved variety of potatoes.
Fui this scctiou I p pfcr tho "Goodrich
I Eat ly Seedling." It costs 8f>,00 per
barrel at J. M. ThorblilU Si Co's, New
York, or tit David Landreth Ac Sen-.'

America, and was carried to Euglaud by
Raleigh, and thence to Ireland, and
"Put." imitating the noted example of
AlucrtoUS Vespi:e:e-\ na'S&4 it alter
himself. . .
Winter and Spring planting should be i
deeper, but summer plaining shallow; !
the land in both case.- enriched with
decomposed manures, and a full and free'
use of vegetable mould and grass is.
