THE FIRST PARIsH-As the impression has
been given by the item which we copied from
the Advertiser that call had been extended by
the First Parish in this city to Rev. Horatio
Stebbins to resume his passionate of that church
and society, we are requested to say that no
such call has been extended and no parish
meeting has been held on the matter. The

the parish had communicated with Mr. Steb-
bins about returning to Portland, to which
decided negative reply was given.
