On New Year's-eyening, a large au-
dience assembled in the NJ. T.. Church,
South, to witness, an entertainment given
for the Sabbath School children, where a
scene of rare beauty was presented, dis
playing the exquisite taste and skill of
those who with loving hearts and willing
hands thus beautifully and appropriately
manifested their interest in the little
ones" Trees bending with gifts, rich,
varied tasteful and elegant, beneath which
rose moss-covered mounds strewn with
like treasures. A fountain sparkling and
throwing its Offering diamond drops into
the miniature lake-wreatLs of verjure en-
circling the columns, the cordial greet
ing, Happy New-Year"-the well chos-
Ell motto. Work for Jesus,"-the bright
smiles lighting up happy faces,-made up
a picture of beauty and loveliness not
surpassed. seldom equaled.
Our space forbids ought, save this has
ty notice, to which we must add our ex-
treme qualification and high appreciation
of one other feature in the varied exercises
the admirable arrangement and fault
less performance of the :. Band of Faith"
We congratulate all who enjoyed with us
this rich feast and thank the School for
this most delightful entertainment, wish
ing them all a Happy New Year" and
many returns of the same.

Christmas Tree.

One of the most beautiful sights we
have gazed upon for a long time was the
Christmas Tree" at the Presbyterian
Church on Christmas evening. The tree
was heavily laden with presents for the
Sunday School Scholars. which were we'll
distributed among the large number of
little folks present. The exercises by the
School, previous. to the distribution, were
of superior character, which well indicates
the interest taken by the Superintendent
and Teachers, in the cause of Sunday
Schools. Many little hearts were made
happy, and beat with joy that will be re-
membcred as long as life lasts, over the
nice presents given them. This was no
doubt the happiest day of the year to
many of the children, and we trust it will
encourage them to be puuctual in their
attendance aud dilligent in studying the
THUTII as it is taught them during the
new Year.

A Book BY BosToN's GREATEST
GUN-EDwARD EVERETT HALE-How
TO DO Ir.-IIere we haye a useful book
and one that ougEt-to be read extensively.
The author prepared it for the instruction
of young people from twelve to twenty
years of age. The chapters of which it is
composed appeared originally in "Our
Young Folks"
The object Of this book-though it has
at odd title-is to instruct young people
how to talk, bow to read, how to write.
how to travel. how to go into society, and
how to do many other important things.
Young people have all these things to do
and tLey ought to be able to do them
we'll, but they are not sure of success. un-
less they know ''how to do it."
While the book is intended for the
Young it contains much that will interest
and, no doubt. profit older heads. for the
young are not the only ones who are def
cieEt in the important knowledge Of how
to do it," Many who have enjoyed the
advantages of a good education are not al
ways able to determine how they ought to
do many things. especially how they
ought to talk.
The book teaches both by precept and
example, and will be better appreciated
when read. It is published by James II.

exposing him to public ridicule. A com
mon punishment was that Of going in
procession through the streets Of town -
a village in q dress covered with images
of SToId :, whips, rods and other instlJI-
meuts of corporal ciIastISement. in HtSSe,
women who had beaten their husbands
were made to ride backwards on a don
key, holding his tail. on which occasions
the animal was led through the streets by
the husband. This custom existed IN
DarTnsf:dt I4I, to the middle OF the seven
teenth century, and was 50 common that
donkey was kept always ready for tie
purpose IN The capital and the neighbOr-

led b. ths ma who had cHarge Of him;
