The services commenced on Thursday
last, the first sermon being preached by
Rev. W. McDonagh, of Clinton, being
followed by Rev. Mr. Birks, of Blyth, in
evening. After an early prayer meeting
on Friday morning, Rev. Mr. Smith, of
Manchester, preached an excellent dis-
course, Rev. 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

the night."
The day doped with several prayer
meetings in the tents. 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.
