GeObelin H lis.AN'_H or U. C. Mute Se-
vern. - Wednesday eight, soourdtng to
•tnounosteent, the Bible Society tae.t-
ing was held in the lecture room of
Knot church, the pr.sideut in the chair.
After prayer and Wading .•f Scripture
th.. secretary wade Ata report of the
financial standing of the Oudenob
Branch. Rev J. ti, Manly then gave
his premised lecture es "Babylon and
Israel " The lecture, in elgouent terra..
described B.hyluo, the city .1 the great
Nebuchadnt era, with its walls .4 im-
mense height and thickness, its gorgeous
palaces, its wonderful hanging gardens --
a city t:nsurpessed in ancient or mod-
ern tines for its grandeur and strength.
He then went out . tell of the shuc*artg
idolatry and grow wickeduesa of
the place, which in the prortJenos
of God brought about its over-
throw, ss' that now the only trace of all
this grandeur re•na,nan* is • few tuounds
of rubniah Ti, accomplishment of
prophecy is teaetifuily seen in this con-
nectu,n, the none of its c.tulaerter
Cyrus, and the way in which 'the city
should be taken being given by Isaiah
about 170 years before the event- 8e.
Isaiah xliv:27 21, and xlv:1. Cyrus see-
ing that the city wait too strong to bie
taken by assault, dug a new chsnnsi for
the river Euphrates, which ran through
the city. and while the Babylonians were
indulging in • drunken revel, marched
itt on the dry hal, finding the river
gates epee as had been predicted. Mr
Manly concluded his remarks by as
eantest appeal for the Bible Society,
which he showed to he an indispensable
help to our missa.nary societies, in pro-
ducing new translations of the Scrip-
tures, and in furnishing «.pies of the
Bible at and sometimes below cost ; and
in many cases giving away copies where
there is no ability to purchase. At the
establishment cf the British and Foreign
B.S C., of which the C. C. Bible Society
is an auxiliary 84 years ago theta
were only fifty languages in which the
Word of God could be had ; now there
bare increased to three hundred, onto(
the latest being a translation of the New
Testament into Hebrew for the benefit of
the Jews. Dr. I're in moving a vote of
thanks to tete lecturer, spoke in high
terms of praise of the lecture, and ex-
pressed an earnest hope that Mr Manly
might be spared to visit us on many
future oocnssuns. Rev. G. Ricbardsoo,
in seconding the motion, also expressed
his deep gratification at what he had
beard. After some appmpriate remarks
by the chairman, the rceettng, which wee
• large and appreciative one, dispersed.
A pleasing feature of the occasion wan
the sitsnog of Prof. Cook's class of bcys
and girls who, gave evidence of careful
trekking. We may state that is the de-
pository here, in Mr. G. C. It.bertaoa's
