The HHDHeHOfS.

VIM. Gould, ESD, Of Portland, deliv-
cred his lecture npon the Huguenots,
before Oxford Normal Institute, last
Sunday evening
There was large audience in attend
ance, and the lecture was listened to with
the most earnest attention.
In beautiful and carefully selected
language, Dir. Gould told his hearers of
the sufferings and prosecutions to which
the early non-conformisis were subject, in
France, Spain, Holland and England,
during period Of time extending from
1910 into 1000. The lecturer showed
himself to be very familiar with the his
tory of those troubled times, and exhibited
happy faculty of imparting such infor-
nation to his audience in manner so
graphic that they can never forget many
of the scenes which he depicted Cover
ing so long time, and one so full Of
interest, the lecture was marvel in that
it condensed so many facts and gave so
clear an idea Of the countries and men Of
which it treated, in an hours discourse.
We should be pleased to give an abstract
of the lecture, but time and space will not
permit
The last lecture in this course will be
given by Rev. Mr. Wheelwright, next
Sabbath evening.

ment. Since that he has busted himself
in passing off his own political dogmas
as republican. while he is at the same
time Rugged and pettcd as the only dem.
