ALMOST A CONTEMPLATION.

About f o'clock one morning, last week, Miss Flora Randall was awaken ed by strong and suffocating smell of smoke. A hasty investigation revealed the fact that coals from the sitting-room fire place had reached the floor beyond the hearth and had already burned through into the cellar. Lively hustling on the part of the family, speedily extin- guished the flames. A lively sensitive nose is about as good a s(c)entinel as one can have, better than patent fire alarm.

CONGREGATIO NAL CHURCH NOTES.

Rev MT Breckenridge preached, last Sunday, on "Christian cordiality." The motto of some, judging by their actions is, "Lct the stranger be a stranger still" Pharasaical coldness and exclusiveness is dry rot in many a church for the req son that they consider themselves Con- gregational club, rather than a church of Christ. Clubs multiply, while Christian churches are growing few and far be- tween. It is high time to return to first principles.
