BEGINNING TO CANA good many Gamers
began to can sugar corn this week, and by the
latter part of next week all the houses where
corn is packed will be in operation, and in a
short time tomato canning will also be in full
blast We have taken much pains to ascertain
the condition of the corn and tomato crops, and
from the information we have obtained we have
no doubt both will be much below the average
yield per acre. The tomato crop, particularly,
will be light nor is the acreage AS large as last
year Vines that looked ilouriehng and pro-
missed fair yield, are said TO be dying. Here
and there good yield will be obtained but
these are exceptional eases.

Retrospective.

sermon by Dr. Hawes at North Church
 The True Light for Man's Firing Feet
 Specially Interesting Services.
 The summer parting sermon of the Rev. Dr. Hayes at the forenoon service at the North church yesterday was very able one, well beftting the beautiful day, the closing service of the season and preparatory for ob- serving the communion in the afternoon. s'Mercy and truth have met together, right eousness and peace have kissed each other,'' words of the 10th verse of Psalms lxxxv., were the text. The chapter in the New Testament on charity Cor Ioye) I. Cor. |, xiii, was read for the lesson of the day at the opening after the first singing. The attri- butes personifed in the text appropriately belong to religion, and, said the speaker, ap- propriately find their best recognition and glad meeting in the life and death of our Saviour Jesus Christ. In the Old Testa- ment teaching, although to an age of the world different from ours or that of Christ, the same great ennobling aud gratifying truth is found. Gods mercy is shown in his long-sufering kind ness to the disobedient and unfaithful and his loving kindness s'unto the thousands of them that love him and keep his command menta." In truth justice ever bears the first place and acts so as to drive away error and sin and to exalt righteousness and peace. The unattained present fulf1lment of that perfect state of happiness so long foretold in the Bible detracts not from the prophetic truth of the word of life. The light of our age differs from that of the present and the flu ture. The revolution comes as we are able to bear it. In fair, clear delineation of the hopeful and right view of past, present and future, contrasted with the same fair and plain statement of the despairing and wrong view of this our earthly life, the pastor gave Q truthful, fair and happy illustration of the embodied joy and delight expressed in the text. 'tMercy and truth have met together, righteousness and peace have kissed each other" Appropriate prayers, anthems and hymns filled up the hour and half of ser vice. The organ and choir were in excellent tune and voice. A small glass vase of roses was on the altar table. The closing words of the sermon were brief and tender allusion to the pastors sincere and earnest religious work in the past six months, and to the cheering and hoseful outlook, after the sum mer vacation, to our next seasons renewal of work for the master.
 In the afternoon two were received into the church by letter. Two infants were bap- tized, son and a daughter, presented by the respective parents of each.
