EAsTER-Thnugh the weather yesterday
was rainy, raw and disagreeab!e. the attend
ance at the different churches was large
especially in tuuse where Easter services
we're hed-the ,ii7courses delivered being
appropriate and interesting, aud the music
Of the most entrancng character. While il
the Catholic aud Episcopal Churches all the
services We're commemorative uI the res
direction Of the Saviour in nearly all the
others the sermons directly or indirectly
bore on this most Important fact, the one
upon which the faith Of the Christian hinges.
In the Meth.,li,t Protestant Church the
pastor, Rev. {. T. Middleton, delivered an
excellent discourse on the resurrection,
pregnant With touuence and healthy
thought, ami which proved meat IL due
season" to ali who heard il. The sunday
schools attached 10 - Pau's and Grace
Churches bad their usual celebrations. The
designs the banners OF the various classes,
the flowers, &c. were beautiful, aud re-
Elected much credi; on those who aided IL
arranging the celebration.
TO day the chjdrep--nr many OF them
have borne sullen countenances, IN conse-
quence of the nEpTcpitl"us weather prevail
img. Eggs IL abundance mat bren dyed ana
every preparation made for II rrup on the
green swards. But all day long the cruel
east wind has prevailed, occasiouing cloudy
and threatening weather and the ground,
too, being saturated many little ones mad to
content themselves by making the nursery
carpet their ,Ggr"lIing ground, though SOME
gathered at Battery Rodgers to engage III
this sport.
Hereabnuts Easter is a day generally OBJ
served and enjoyed by children, but i'll some
localities IL must be q gala day for adults
also In he northern counties Of Eng land,
for instance. HE custom is for men to pick
w every woman they meet three times on
Easter SUNDAY and extort kiss or silver

lowlug the men are in turn lifted by The
women aud pay The same forfeit.

Some tender cord had been touched

she walked rapidly 10 her tent, PIT on
