The '.revival" at the NJ. E. Church,
North, closed last Thursday evening,

had been raised to send the evangelists
to their homes! Consequently another
| day was taken in which to raise the

went his way Friday morning. He is
man of considerable force and talent,
and withal endowed with good common
sense. His advice to the resident pas
tor of this church was that he have his
parishioners take their dismissal and
attach themselves to the Fort Hill con-
gregatiOn; then he could write to his
presiding elder that he was without a
charge and ask to be placed somewhere
else in the vineyard. The fact is-it
may be none of our business, but it is
a fact-there has been more square-out

had received from his congregation

what the LAS" have to do this term.
The lessons assigned us yesterday
were as follows: Hist. of English-s

with Rhetoric. Thus we carry eight
regular studies. Besides this we recite
spelling every day and perform three
duties in literary society. write one
composition for class, and recite one
defamation from the rostrum during
the term. Then our orations and es-
