GRATIFYING PRESENTATION TO THE REV
J. R. CONOR, OF ST. SIMON'S.

It is probably well known to our readers that, ever
since we have had a regiment of soldiers stationed among

us, the able and respected pastor of St. Simon's has
laboured with praiseworthy assiduity to promote their
moral and spiritual condition. To prove that he has done
so with no small degree of acceptance and profit, we need
only refer to the accompanying gratifying correspondence
which has just taken place _ _ _

"Liverpool, April Bth, 1850.
" MY DEAR MR. CONOR,—AIIow • me, on the part of the
officers of the 46th Regiment, stationed in Liverpool, to request
your acceptance of a small token of their esteem and regard
" From the time yon gave up your church fora sc
' for -

parateservice

le troops, while we were encamped at Everton, up to the
present time, when we are on the point of moving to other
quarters, your attention to the religious instruction of us all
has been steady and unremitting. As our chaplain you have
from your pulpit spoken home and salutary truths to the men ;
and the attention with which your exhortations and spiritual
admonitions (Leing yourself a so!dier's son) have been received

by the soldiers has satisfied me that they found their way to
their hearts, where I hope they are producing good fruit. The
officers are strongly impressed with your kind and friendly de-
portment towards themselves, and the deep interest you have
taken in the welfare of the men. With this feeling they beg to
offer you the accompanying trilling memento of their good
will; and with our un►ted best wishes for your future health
and happiness,—l remain, my dear Mr. Conor, yours very truly

and sincerely,

R. GARRATT,
" Lieutenant-Colonel 46th Regt
" "The Rev. John Conor. M.A."

The memento alluded to in the foregoing was a silver
salver, of chaste and exquisite workmanship, from the
establishment of Mr. Mayer, of Lord.strect, bearing the
following inscription :=

honor conferred on me by the officers of your distinguished
corps. _ _

"I felt it to be a duty to which the oldest and best Bruin-

to the encamped

troops marched in, I considered it to be a privilege to teach the
brave comrades of my father. I have continually rejoiced to
observe the solemn deportment of the soldier in prayer, and
the profound attention with which my humble addresses have
been received by the men and officers. I stood among you " in
love," a soldier's son watching for the best interests of
soldiers' souls ; and your most encouraging note shews that I
