STAMFORD.

Sunday was the first anniversary of Rev Mir Pardee's rectorship here and he reviewed the years work, taking as his text, First Corinthians, K, 31. He has offleiated at 262 public services, admins tered the holy communion 44 times in public to 1858 persons and four times in private, baptized 75, presented class of five for confirmation, married six coup les, ofllciated at % funerals, delivered l55 sermons and addresses; an average of 95 received the communion on the first Sunday of each month and of 9 on holy and saints days. The lights and shad- ows of the record were considered. The smallness of the confirmation class was ascribed partly to the Over-anxiety of parents and partly to the apathy of adults in making a profession of faith. The three-fold nature of the minis terial office, the prophetic, admins trative and pastoral, was consid- cred, none of which should be neglected at the expense of any other. Both the congregations and Sunday school of Christ church, it may be remarked, show the results of a faithful years work.
