shines out In that great day when God
assigns to all their places in His Kingdom,
the first shall be, not those of splendid
gifts, attachments or possessions, but the
humble, elf-sacrilicing, loving servants
of the Master They shall sit down on
the right and the left hand of Him who
through like service has become King

At the close of this eloquent and appro-
pirate discourse congregational hymn
was sung. Rev J. H. Hnckssof Montpe-
Ter then offered the installation prayer,
which was followed with selection

is the salvation of the souls committed to

this work of human salvation. 3. Seek
the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.
Expect much from the inspiration
and illumination of the spirit
of truth. 4. Continue in the work.

The right hand of fellowship was then
extended to the pastor by Rev. Edward
Halves, ID. d., of the First Congregational
church of this city. Dr. Halves spoke OF
the personal pleasure it afforded
him to welcome a pastor to the
pulpit so closely allied and in such
close sympathy with his own and also
his qualification that the small circle OF
ordained Congregational pastors in Chit
tenden county was now increased to three
You have come, he said, addressing the
pastor, to beautiful place, fair spot
and hope its outward beauty will be
matched, and more than matched, by thu
desirable and beautiful things you vii
find in your social intercourse, and in tn,
realms of thought and sympathy i'll which
you will move. We welcome you to on
ecclesiastical councils and to our minis
terial association. We welcome you hope
| fully, because of what we have learned to
day of your spirit We welcome you,
may say, with expectation because o
what we have learned of the record o
your work in the past. And especially w
welcome you nOlU. We are glad to hav
one more here who shall tell the 'old, oil,
story" As Dr. Halves closed his earnes
words, he grasped the new PASTOR warml
by the hand.
The choir and congregation then joine
in singing a hymn, and the exercise
closed with benediction pronounced b.
| the pastor.

attendance at the State meeting was the
subject of much favorable comment
among the visitors, and indeed they seem
ed exceedingly pleased with the way in
which everything pertaining to the meet
ing passed off. In connection with the
success of the meeting great credit is due
to the admirable foresight and untiring
zeal of Principal $. w. Landon, especially
in the management of the local details.
In their reception and entertainment of
the visitors the people of this city fully
sustained their reputation for hospitality
and liberality and the teachers undoubted-
ly carried away with them pleasant mem
cries of their visit to the Queen City.
Coasting was carried on, Saturday after
noon and evening with Il zest yet unequal
led and there was such a crowd at Church
street that it was difficult to move about
In the afternoon the families and guests
of many of our most prominent residents
were coasting and some stylish turnouts
took coasting parties up the hill to coast
down. In the evening the hill was illu-
minated and presented picturesque
scene. The stately trees retained their
mantle of fantastic frost work of the day
previous, and this, with the glare of the
torches reflected in the gently falling
snow gave the street an aspect of glitter
ing beauty seldom equalled. Crowds of
elderly people were out to watch the sport
and their enjoyment seemed hardly less
than that of the coasters.
The fire department was called out Sun
day afternoon about 1870 o'clock by an
alarm from box 30, which had its origin
i'll the breaking out OF fire in tenement
house, number II Cedar street, owned by
John Mckeough and occupied by Theresa
Alapa. Nearly all the companies re-
sponded, but the fire being small the
Barnes and Star companies who are
nearest the spot were able to fight it alone,
although the Ethans laid line of hose to
be prepared for an emergency. The flames
which caught in an upper room were put
out before much damage had been done,
and the goods in the lower rooms had been
removed so that little damage resulted
from the water. The upper rooms had
just been finished and the fire is supposed
to have caught from stove which was
used to dry the plasuering.
