sightseeing, pleasure, and amusement. Tht
weather could not be more favorable
The air is soft and balmy, the
mornings cool and delightful, aud the
evenings, when the interests Of the days ser.
vices seems to culminate, are simply delicious,
constantly serving to remind one Of that east
ern cline Of cloudlcss nights and starry skies.
! An mir Of deep religious feeling and solemnity
| pcrvades the entire assembly, and all things
| seem to speak to each heart, in unmistakable
language, Of the glory aud goodness of the
| Creator.
