New Preston.

Rev. M. H. Pogson of Bridgeport was pres- ent at all the meetings of the past week, con- mencing Monday night and continuing through the week till Saturday night, and preached excellent sermons every night. It was an unfavorable week on account of the in- clemency of the weather, the dreadful state of the roads, and the moonless nights; but nobody can hear such sermous as those without being elevated and made the better for it. Thursday night only twenty-eight persons were present, four of them ladies, but the sermon,
 which was based on the words Follow thou me-" was as good as any of the series, and de- livered with as much fervor and finish as if a great audience had been present Perhaps the
 meetings have not been as successful as was expected, in one sense of the word, still, in an other, they have been abundantly so, and, we believe, the truths so forcibly and eloquently spoken, have sunkep deeply into many hearts.

If March has not brought quite so much snow and blow as in some previous years, it nevertheless has pretty well ''held it's own" by furnishing liberal variety of weather. The ice storm of Saturday, the 22d, was heavy, although, owing perhaps to lack of wind, dam age resulting from it was light. On Sunday morning the trees on the Park presented very lovely appearance; not sparkling in a glorious sunlight, thereby dazzling the beholders' gaze by their many brilliancies; yet charming by thelr chaste and graceful elegance.
