The fruit tinder was not dis- posed to argue the matter any further and left abruptly. The services commenced on Thursday last, the first sermon being preached by Rev. W.

Messrs. Hamilton and Tes- kep preached respectively in the after- noon and evening. Saturday was taken up with discourses from Rev. Moura Cook, Bayfield; Harris, Brussels; and Livingstone, Bayfield. At all these ser- viose the congregations were very fair, and there were indicatiot_s of good being done. Sunday, however, was looked forward to as the great day of the meet- ing, and such it proved to be. A prayer meeting was held at nine o'clock, led by Rev.

The conduct of the large audiences was almost unexosp- tional. During the evening some young men and some that were not young, per- sisted in standing up and talking con- trary to the wishes of those in authority, and muck to the annoyance of those sitting around them. Only the interven- tion of some friends saved the partici- pants from exposure before a magistrate.
