TUE RECENT BAZAAR IN BIRKENHEAD-CONGREQ4
TIONAL SOIRIM—A very agreeable reunion of the members
of the Rev. James Mann's congregation took place on
Wednesday evening, in the school-room beneath the chapel,
Hamilton-square. Mr. Mann himself presided, and, after
the tea services had been removed, described the origin,
progress, and present position of the Victoria-street schools,
in aid of which the recent bazaar had been held. He hoped
that, the recent effort having been so successful, by the end
of the year the institution would be entirely relieved from
debt. Mr. Skinner then read the report of the Bazaar
Committee, from which it apeeared that the total proceeds of
the sales and admissions amounted to £243 1.7 s ld, the
expenses to £24 18s 21d, leaving a balance of £2lB 18s lOld,
which it was understood would be further increased by a
few additional pounds. Alluding to the day school (Viotort,_
street) Mr. Skinner said, that at the beginning of last
quarter there were 74 children, at the close 143, the average
attendance per day was now 88. The Sunday school was
also in a most promising condition, though there was a great
want of teachers in the morning. Mr. M'Creary spoke in
favourable terms of the Hamilton-square Sunday school, in
which the attendance averaged from seventy to eighty.
Thanks were then voted to Airs. and Mr. Skinner for their
very arduous exertions in connection with the bazaar, and
also to the ladies of the committee and stalls for their
courteous attention and unflagging zeal. The local authori-
ties oame in also for a hearty vote of thanks, in consequence
of the kind consideration which they hizd manifested by
bolding the curt elsewhere in order that the operations of
the bazaar might not be disturbed. The gentlemen of the
bazaar committee were also alluded to in complimentary
terms, together with Dr. Baylis, of Birkenhead, the latter
having placed his house and table, during the bazaar, at the
disposal of tho committee,
