The Lectures. The Institute Lee
lures opened with one from Father De
KeIver at the Catholic Church last
Friday. The weather was unpropiti-
Gus, consequently the attendance was
not large. Mr. De Kelver advocated
a wider dissemination of Christian
knowledge in connection with secular
education, asserting'that Christian prin-
ciple S thoroughly interviewer with the
general knowledge obtained in our pub
lie schools, will prevent the defalca-
tions and crimes Of which we read in
every paper we peruse. The Fathers
lecture was not lengthy. We were un-
able to hear the speaker distinctly, and
lost much We would have been pleased
to hear.
Rev r. NJ. Webster delivered the
second Of the course at the Cong.
Church last Tuesday evening. The
Rev. was eloquent in impressing upon
the mi nds of the teachers the necessity
of making Truth the fundamental and
primary thing in the pursuit of their
profession. lie earnestly and eloquent
ly advocated the use of the Bible as
text book and one that ought not to
be ruled out of the school room. The
attendance was good, though not
large.
Just here we want to saw word to
the Superintendent who has instituted
the lectures. We think he has been
sadly derelict in the discharge of his
duty. At the close of De Kelver's
lecture notice should have been given
of the succeeding ones Of the course
A notice should have been read on
the Sabbath, at the churches, and
notice posted at the Post Office. This
inviting A. B. and c to lecture, and
then leaving them to the tender mer-
cles of bare walls, and to light up their
places of speaking, and to advertise
themselves, ought to be played out by
this time. Mr.. Powers did get out
100 handbills on Monday, and if he
did anything more we have failed to as
certain what it is.

A "SPooNEY" PERPoRMANCE.-Av very
singular occurrence happened, one day
last week, In the family Of Mr.. Stephen
Bailey, residing on the twenty mile
stream" about two miles from Procters.
vile. 1t was this: Mrs. Bailey brought
a pan of milk from the pantry into the
kitchen to skim it. She used spoon to
take the cream from the milk, putting the
cream into another dish. After skimming
the milk she laid the spoon bottom side
up in the dish Of cream, and, taking the
pan of milk, she started for the stove.
About the time she reached the stove she
heard the spoon rattle, and turning round
her husband came into the room at that
moment-she saw the spoon drop at his
feet. Mr.. b. said he saw the spoon as
be entered the room, rise from the dish
nearly to the ceiling and then drop at his
feet. No one was near the spoon when it
performed this strange freak, there being
no one the house at the time but the aged
couple. This may seem TO some fcti.
tious story, but it is true. Mr.. and Mrs.
Bailey are we'll known here and else
where, aud are considered by all their ac.
quaintances as honest and truthful, aud
SO they are; but the performance of the
spoon is mystery to all the neighbors
