LECTURES.

The lecture of Geo. G. Haddock, last
Tuesday evening, was attended by a
large and attentive audience. A prom
ising beginning was thus effected to a
cause which promises to grow in inter-
est with each succeeding part of the
programme. Let no one forget that

THE readings of Prof. Z. L. Cumnocls, of the

Church, last night, were of an unexpectedly
high order. His Charaeterizatrons were truthful
and powerful and as histronic artist he shows
himself to be master. Prof. Cumnock can
not remain unknown.-Ch Tribune.
THE readings Of Prof. Cumnock at the His
torical Rooms last night were a great treat. 1t
is rarely we find a man of such genuine talent
who has not been connected in some way, or
at some time with the stage. His presentations
were to the life, his facial expression wonder
full, and his elocution throughout faultless.-

THE readings of Prof. Cumnock at the South
Park Church last night were largely attended,
and his auditors were so delighted, that many,
as they left the church, wished they might hear
him again. 1t is seldom we find a public man
upon whom we can bestow such hearty and
unqualified commentator. Prof Cumnock is

The Chronicle says:-The hill Of the
Magesfaa was completely broken up by
the storm of last Tuesday, and the pieces
now lie strewn along the beach between
this place and Manitowoc. Nothing,
however, has been found of she cabin, or
of the cabin furniture. Some hopes
were entertained previous to the break
ing up of the hull that it could be ex-
amined and that some evidence could be
found as to what was the cause OF the
terrible disaster; but now that this
chance is gone, the cause will probably
forever remain shrouded in mystery.

THERE are some who dissent from the
general verdict pronounced upon the
lecture of Mr. Kaddock at the NJ. E.
Church on Tuesday evening last. It
will rarely occur, and cannot reasonably
be expected that clergyman lecturer
viii be accorded a unanimous approval.
His performance is not apt to be viewed
apart from existing predictions for, or
against, his denomination. We do not
hesitate, however, to pronounce Mr..
Haddock's lecture valuable one, and
well worthy of the large audience in at
tendance and of the noticeable attention
paid to 1t throughout. 1t is proper
enough to pass criticism or two in
order to be Just. There were some
violations of good taste, as when the
speaker begged in advance the indul
gence of his auditors on account of
cold. This, it seems to us, should very
rarely be done bnt if the case is an
exceptional one, it may be allowable for
the one Introducing the speaker to make
a suitable predatory apology. Thea
again, Mr.. Haddock has no vein of
humor and certainly lao Wit. He should
forgo every attempt at either. He has
merits enough, in other directions, to
make him interesting to Intelligent peo-
pie and might well do without these,
even if he were able to summon such
aids to his rhetoric aud oratory. Those
instruments of thought aud communica
ton which the speaker cannot adequate
" command, like nlutinous battalions,
only weaken his available forces. Not
witll:55ttess;;;sii!;mS these little subjects of
criticism, the lecture certainly sl,c,Tad
extensive and minute research careful,
II nqt eganflY correct, Classification of
psychological phenoHens and great dill
igence in their comparison. The whole
contents OF s'Spookdom'' was illustrated
by very numerous examples Of the Mar
velous. The glimpses which the speak
er seemed to get of future engagements
Of the domain Of knowledge, We're, it
seems TO us, -EalI worth all his study !;
atIil. the conclusion Of the whole matter,
that is, the reference of az these pheno-
mcna to the shattered remains of what
was once an attribute Of the human
mind, though such an explanation &c
wonld be expected from o Clergyman,
was nevertheless an exceedingly inter-
esting thought, and was enough for the
outgrowth of any one lecture.
