Mr.. Trinble was in favor OF the a.

however, congress did afterwards request

The Catholics of Alexandra, who mu II
be convinced OF the existence of much
distress among the poor in the town, du-
ring the winter season, ought to be willing
to contribute their little mite their re-
lief. AS the festival OF Christmas-day is
the choicest commemoration Of that po-
verty, which the Redeelner constantly
chose for his earthly portion, a charity
sermon will be preached and a contribu-
ton collected or that day TO give some
little, assistance to the poor. The num-
Der of Catholics is small and their means
contracted, but it is hoped, that they will
not be unmindful Of that charity, which
their religion dictates. A sermon on the
lestivity will De preached in the alter
