whereupon the court fixed the trial for

Implication in the murder Of Ashburne.
The circumstances connected with the

The President remarks that very large
propoftion of the additions have but re-
Gently been made, and consequently the
average attendance, as given IN the report
for the whole year, is far below the average
of the latter part Of the year. The success
Of the First school is particularly men
toned, and the means used commended.
The danger of attaching too much import
snce to mere machinery is remarked. 1t ID
pleasing to notice that so many conversions
are reported. Such results, from but faint
and intermitting labor (for such it has been
at the BEST, should awaken our gratitude
and melt us to penitence.
1t is also remarked that the congregations,
rs we'll as the teachers and scholars, have
manifested more interest in the schools than
WAS ever before noticeable. 1t is hoped
TINT even more interest will in the future be
felt by parents and other adults in the great
Sunday-school work. It is an unkindness
and an injustice, both to their own children
and TO those who try to halps train their
children for Heaven, that parents whose
sons and daughters are Sunday school
scholars often seem almost indifferent
whether the laborS of the teacher are sue
ceSsful or not.
After the reading of the report, there
WAS singing again, and then two capital
Sunday school addresses, by Rev. Drs. Read
and Moore, each CHARACTERISTIC of the
speaker, and each excellent in its way.
The exercises were closed by the shymn
"Hosannah," which the children sang with
their whole hearts and voices, under, the
leadership of MIR. j. D. K. Sleight. ~
