ANNOUNCEMENT.
G C. Porter wishes to make tlie fi 1
lowing announcement:
Beginning June 1st and continuing
through most of July [ expect to diseu-s
questions at the foundation of the be
lief iu Christianity. As near as can
now be outlined the subjects will be as
follow?:
June 1, Why I believe in a Personal
God; evidenced from lower nature.
June 8. Why I believe in a Personal
God; evidenced from man
June 15, Why I believe in a Personal
God; evidenced from other source? and
synthesis of ail the evidence
June 22. Why i believe Christanlty to
be the true and the only true religion.
June 29 Why l believe Christ is the
son of God.
July C. Why I believe the Bible is
the word of God.
July 13 Why 1 believe ia Future
Rewards.
July 20. Why I believe in Future
Punishment.
Being a Christian myself, I believe
the Christian position is the only cor
rect one. I believe it can be proved to
be, not only the most rational, but the
only rational position on these sub
jects. 1 believe modern science bears
out the truth of this statement.
During these series of talks, every
one will be allowed to ask such ques
tions, bearing on these subjects, as he
may choose. Questions handed to me
or mailed so as to reach me before Fri
day noon, will be considered at the
next public service. These received
later in the week will be considered at
the service held a week later. Questions
will not be answered at other times
than at the regular service, If I can
answer questions asked I shall do so;
if not. I will frankly admit my inabil
ity. In any case honest questions will
be met honestlv.
These subjects are to be considered
because of a belief on niy part that
many people are in error on these suh
jeots, are honest in their convictions
and ready, if led to see their error, to
embrace the trurh. I believe error on
these basic questions is fatal, and for
this reason urge careful, exact, and
fair investigation while tbe opportun
| ity is open.

Jenny Washington.
Philip Vickers Fithian, a tutor at
Nomini Hall, Virginia, in 1774, gives
this description of Washington's niece,
Miss Jenny Washington. Evidently
she was a personable young lady, with
all the graces of her time. "Miss
Washington is about seventeen; she
has not a handsome Face, but is neat
in her Dress, of an agreeable Size. &
well proportioned, and has an easy
winning Behavior; She is not forward
to begin a conversation, yet wheu
spoken to she is extremely affable,
without assuming any Girlish affec
tation or pretending to be overcharg'd
with Wit; She plays well on the
Harpsichord & Spinet; understands
the principles of Muslck, & therefore
performs her Tunes in perfect time, a
Neglect of which always makes w i
sick Intolerable, but it is a fault al
most universal among young Indies
in the practice; she sings likewise to
her instrument, has a strong full
voice and a weli-judglng Ear; but
most of the Virgiuia Girls think it
Labour quite sufficient to thump the
Keys of a Harpsichord into the air
of a tune mechanically. & think It
would be Slavery to submit to the
Drudgery of acquiring Vocal Muslck.
