On the 18th day Of the present
month, at the Congregational Church,
in this village, the ceremony Of " chris
tening" was observed in the cases Of
three infant children. Such occasions
are always deeply interesting, but this
was more than usually so it was i'm
pressive-rendered thus, perhaps not
so much by form as by circumstance.
There was the altar, the preacher, the
parents and the little children. The
latter, beautiful in their innocence, land ,
unconscious Of tho possibilities which
the future might develop in them. The
parents, grave with sense Of their re-
sponsiblity, and the preacher repeating,
" suffer little children to come unto
me-" Obeying this injunction. these
parents had literally brought their lit
tie ones to Christ. BY their actions
that day, they said practically, eve Of
our own free will and accord, do here
by, before God and in the presence Of
these earthly witnesses, dedicate these
our beloved offspring to holy, chris
tian life, and to the end that this conse.
Grafton shall not be in vain, we solemn
ly pledge ourselves to the constant work
Of teaching them to emulate all the vir-
tues,and to avoid every vice. We will
train them to shun even tho appear
ancc Of evil, and to live in all honesty,
sobriety and goodness Our prccepts
shall be to them rules for a perfect life,
and our example shall fifty illustrate
the meaning Of the words which We
utter. Ne will not suffer ourselves to
be overcome by anger We will not
evil-speak; our conversation shall be
pure; We will be charitable, forgiving:
kind; ours shall be christian house,

to our children, and there kneel with
them to pray >; We will early teach
them to respect the ordinances
Of the church, and to yield obedience
to the requirements Of the Gospel
