Rev. Mr.. Hautton CLOSING a discourse
on benevolence)-And my My dear breth-
rem, l leave these various summer chari-
ties, which so strongly need the aid of all
who find it possible to offer it, in your
hand. Give of your money if You can;
rive of your time and strength if your
dollars are not plenty; all-old and young,
richer or poorer--can assist IN the noble
work. Some little sacrifice may be need
ed; make it. A little seli-denial may be
necessary; exert it, and your reward shall
be the greater.
The plates are passed to slow music

babies in the sitting tenements. l really
