tNTKRRsrTSo EXERCISES IN HANOVER CHURCH
SUNDAY SCHOOL.
At the meeting OF the Hanover Presbyterian
Church Sunday School, on Sunday IN orning, IN
teresting services were held in memory OF Sam
uel Floyd deceased, who, for about q years,
had been superintendent of the school,
After the usual opening exercises, Rev. l..
Marks suggested the propriety OF spending the
morning IN commemOration OF the pure chris
tan life and character Of the deceased. Mr.. NJ.
then spoke OF his zeal for the church, and his
intense love for the Sunday School. He was
never known TO be absent, unless in case OF
sickness. or unayoidably distant, and never tardy
OF late. His life was like the even current OF a
river that flowed on, day after dav, and wear af-
ter year, IN the same channel, never lashing
itself into raging flood or overlapping its banks
and filling the flats with stagnant ponds but
like the pure, clear stream that carried Joy
peace and happiness everywhere.
The school then proceeded to sing some OF the
| favorite hymns that the deceased loved 80 much
on earth, amongst which were "Sweeping
| Through the Gates" "Over There" and Others
The subdued silence and the fervency OF the
prayers offered, showed the high estimation in
which the deceased WAS held not only in the
Sunday school, but in the church, and in the
community in general
We understand that memorial sermon will
be preached in the church by the pastor next
Sunday morning.

RUSSELL IN REGARD TO THE TREATY OBJ wAsH-
INGToN
LONDON. Thursday, April 10, 1874.
the House Of Commons this evening, Sir Staf-
ford Northcote, Chancellor of the Exchequer, sub
mitted the annual budget, according to which tho
total gross revenue of the United Kingdom in tho
year ended March 81, 1874 amounted to En- 1886 ,0O0
exceeding Mr.. loves estimate by f3574.oO0. The
total gross expenditure for the year ETC $4,000
This includes the paid for the Geneva award,
but does not embrace the expenses of the Ashantee
war; The excess OF the expenditures over the esti-
mate was f1,156,000.
The total revenue for the current financial yeas.
ending March 81, 1875, is estimated at fT7, $4,000,
and the total expenditures at f72503,0o0. leaving
surplus of S. 492OOO These estimates virtually
based on Mr. Gladstone's figures.
Sir Stafford Northcote proposes to dispose of tho
surplus by reducing the income tax one penny in
the pound abolishins the duties on sugar from the
LIST of May creating additional terminable annui-
ties to the amount of E4j0OOO; reducing tho national
debt f7.0O00OO in ten years; contributing flOO00O
to the relief of local taxation, and abolishing horse
licenses. These measures it is estimated will absorb
When the Chancellor Of the Exchequer had con-
cluded his speech explaining the figures, Mr.. Lowe
rose and expressed his cordial approval Of the Bud
get and its recommendations.
A resolution for the abolition Of the sugar dnties
as proposed in the Budget, was Immediately moved

ther for account of the compensation made by
the United States for damages caused by the Fenian
raids on Canada.
sss LONDON, friday Aprii i'-o De m'
The morning journals generally approve
of the Budget. The Times points to
the fact that the revenue of the coming
year is estimated an unprecedentedly LID
eral SCALE and considers the proposed reduction OF
the debt small in comparison.
