JAMAICA.
Though intensely cold, last week
was given up to Christmas festivals III
connection with the several Sunday
schools of the place. These took the
form of Christmas trees, concert eXer-
cises, Sunday school songs, and oyster
suppers.
The first festival was given at the
Baptist meeting house, Tuesday even
ing, and the second at the Congregation
al house Thursday evening. Though it
was stormy and cold, and the roads in
bad condition, the houses were well
filled with both the old and young, who
were delighted with their richly ladened
trees, entertained by the exercises, and
satisfied with their sumptuous suppers.
On the whole they were successful at
fairs, and will doubtless contribute in
promoting the welfare Of the Sunday
schools.

The Christmas celebration, at Burr
& Burton Seminary, passed off very
pleasantly. A short time was spent by
the students in singing appropriate
/ songs. and brief remarks were made by
Drs. Wickham, Cushman. Hemenway,
| s. G. Cone, Esq, and others. The
presents were distributed, the teachers
/ receiving a liberal share, and the re-
mainder of the time was spent in getting
better acquainted with each other. The
! school and the people Of the surrounding
/ country would be more in sympathy
with each other if such gatherings were
more frequent
