The trial of sixteen of the boys before

all been pleasantly arranged SO that
they all remain, conditionlly of course.
The lecture by DR.. Hunting Tuesday
evening, at the church, was one from
which none could return home unin-
formed. Filled with good thoughts
and clothed in beautiful diction, we
noticed but one omission, and that was
any iniimation as to when we might
hope TO hear another by him. The
music is always so pleasing that it is
difficult to know when to praise it
most.
