Beginning his remarks with a
pretty quotation fror Scotch poet,
Bishop Vincent launched into the
easy course of one tf the most en-
tertaining lectures we ever listened
to. It had charms of all sorts. It's
diction was pure and sweet; It's i'm
agery was not gaudy but fresh as
the rose in spring; it's pathos was
true and its wit was sparkling Not
a word escaped the ears of his au-
dience, and the end of the lecture
was the only part regretted. That
Boy has been heard from Maine
to California. At the Methodist
church next Monday evening.
