The First BAPTIST Church.

Services at the recognition of Rev. A. P. X
Small, D. D., as pastor of the First Baptist
church will be held this evening at half-past
seven o'clock. Rev. A. j. Gordon, D. D., Of
Boston, will preach the sermon. There viii
be addresses of welcome by Rev. j. McWhin-
ME, Rev. w Fl. Fem and Rev. j. Kicker, D.
D., to which DIR. Small will respond. The
services cannot fail to be of more than ordinary
interest
A Boston correspondent of the Mirror
writes: "Dr Webb's is my church when in
Boston, but on stormy Sundays go to DR..
Gordons, which is very near. The Baptists
are very strong in Boston, and DR.. Gordons IS
one of the best churches. In this church Mr.
Moody held his inquiry meetings, and the ip-
terest of that period seems never to have de-
clined in this society. 1t is not uncommon for
five or six hundred to attend the evening
prayer-meeting, and conversions-a and baptisms
are many. Their hospitality is cordial and
personal. Let me sit where / may, the pew
owner or occupant says at the close of service,
Il am glad to see you, and hope you will come
again and sit with u.s.. Call this policy, if
you will, or propagandism, but 1t is agreeable,
certainly, and Christian. The edifice is large,
cruciform, and exceedingly comfortable, the
organ powerful, and the music by the chorus
choir sufficiently artistic, while all the music,
congregational or otherwise, is devotional. DR..
Gordon is a strong, squarely-built man, fifty
years old. gray hair, smooth face and serious
manner. He is one of the manifest and most
earnest men one meets in Boston. and is
leader in all manner of reforms. His theology
on essential points is most uncompromising,
but it never offends or repels; it is winsome al
ways, and for two reasons. One is, it is pro-
f0r, md nx,1 c11or tnttAr md
in its utterances; another is, he never projects
himself, there being an entire absence OF
egotism and self-consciousness. His personal
ity is great, but the greatness is due to his db-
soYption in his theme, his work. Ministers,
workers of any kind, may thus learn the true
secret of success

Iescrpt by Peters, IA client wrote to his coun-
sci to commence suit for divorce at an ca ly day,
so that his wife wouh have time to think the mat
ter over, and perhaps consent to private separa-
ton. and thereby avoid as much public scandal as
possible. He also orally instructed his counsel TO
withdraw the libelif fury trial could nlt be avoid
cd. In the trial of suit between the counsel and
the client to determine the amount of the compeD-
sson which the counsel should receive for services
in obtaining divorce, the counsel was allowed to
put the written and oral instructions in evidence to
show the nature of the engagement and the servi-
ces performed. Held, that the same should not
have been excluded as confidential communications.
An agreement between parties to divorce, declar-
ing the erms upon which divorce may be de
creed, does not necessari show connivance col
fusion. Where no fraud is intended TO be thereby
practiced upon the court, and no facts are sup
pressed, such agreement, although 10 be careful
~ looked into by the court, may be entirely unob-
jectionabe. When a question arises as to the
words of interrogatory put to witness, the
judge not having personal recollection, and the
counsel not agreeing about it, may adopt it as
found in the Court reporters short hand notes.
Exceptions (by plaintitf) overruled

of the vote cast for all six candidates. Add
