And step by step gladly take,
A child in Him confiding.

Before He brought me to the light.
My all to Him resigning.
Just as God leads me, abide,
In faith, in hope, in suffering true;
His strength is ever by my side

How, by loving Fathers will,
Faithful and true, He leads me still.

The Young Ladies' Sewing society of the Congregational church will hold bazaar on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of next week, day and evening, in Goes Hall Much labor and trouble and some money have been expended in the preparation and selection of articles in endless variety, which are to be for sale on that occasion. The profits accru- ing from the enterprise are to be applied to the building of church chapel. The object being of such worthy character and it be- ing such a rare chance to obtain those things needful for the body, pleasant to the taste, and ornamental to the person and the home, therefore we have no doubt that there will be a liberal patronage.
 Drs. Emmons and Plato, of Syracuse, N. Y., have been entertaining people since Monday of this week in Goes Hall every evening with course of lectures, medical in their nature, and exceedingly instructive and interesting. The hall has been well filled on every occasion, and those who were present cannot fail to have learned many practicable truths
