teTest, Bunyan's Pilgrim being almost a,household
companion, aid any defence Of his character win
be listened to with marked attention. s,..
1t is rare that men like; BuHYAN, who have raised
themselves by their own exertons, escape the sian
ders ot their cotemporaries, but in every instance
shese tal harmlessly to the ground like the dirt
thrown on CHR1sT1AN's robe: A comparison be-
! tween the tinker poet and the poet tinkern can
but result IN proving the superiority Of the former
although his antagonist may be,more gifted. h.
Pr. LORD is admirably suited to discuss these
points, and perhaps no could have been select
ed who would bo able to give the subject such a
bearing as to make it both interesting and instruc
tive. Lectures Of this description are unfor tunate
" too rare in this city, and should sbs attended
whenever an opportunity offers. St. Stephens
Chapel is in oontrai location, and with DR.. LORD
as tho orator, the Pilgrim as the subject, and
Charity as the object, full attendance is almost
natural consequence, nnd all who have either the

taste for literary subjects, viii osea rare treat by
