Una Al ford, who, with a few young ladies is occupying tbe school room as a boarding hall, was most agree ably surprised on the evening; of the 6th inst. by a visit from the worthy members of the school board, accompanied by over twenty friends, members of their own families, and friends of the teacher. The surprise was none the less agreeable from the fact that the party came laden with the many good things of life, and about ten o'clock a bountiful feast was spread of which all partook. The time was pleasantly spent in the enjoyment of social conversation, singing, games of authors and other amuse ments, and it was long past mid night when the party broke up.
