Remarkable Revival In Nova Scotia.


M Etitor,-I send YOU the fol-
lowing we'll authenticated account of
most remarkable revival of religion in
Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, hoping that all
Sabbath school teachers will fee more
deep y than ever, their responsibility, and
be animated and strengthened to faithful
ness and perseverance in duty, by the
bright example here presented before
them.
The revival commenced in the Sabbath
school through the faithfulness OF devo
ted teacher. He had awoke to a feeling
sense of the solemn responsibility resting
upon him.-He met his class in tears; the
time usually devoted to the recitation he
spent in personal conversation with his
pupils. He addressed them in tender,
yet faithful and pointed manner-But d
few Sabbaths had passed before he heard
the interesting cry, Dear teacher, pray
for u.s." The Spirit of God was melting
their hearts. The heavenly fame already
klndled around him. was spreading Itself
to other classes, and pervaded the whole
school. But 1t stopped not here. Itover-
spread The community, and wrought It's
glorious work, and won its trophies.
When We last received Intelligence, four
hundred and thirty-sx were rejoicing IN
Christ, Glorious answers were these to
that teachers prayersl, a rich and bless
ed harvest this, although the ed was
sown in tears. Whatsoever we SOW, fell
low teachers, that shall we also reap. A
! spiritual harvest will as surely follow pl'
Gus efforts as temporal harvest the cult
Vatlon Of the ground and the sowing OF the
seed But how different the fruits How
shall ! compare the richest and the mos
| abundant temporal harvest with the unta'
ding glories of heaven Contemplate
the teacher as he meets these precious
souls at the resurrection, clothed IN pure
white, shining in unfading beauty !-t1ac
ne gained, while here, the highest honofs
tne sweetest pleasures, and the riches
wealth .of earth. how Insignificant would
uley al appear to him MOVIE He goes to

of the first motion.
Second-When the piston is raised open cock TO

ducor, by which the water may be conveyed back at
