but there is another set of journals whose articles on reciprocity are believed by Americans to be stimulated in some cases by sordid motives from this side; and this suspicion is doing a great deal of harm to the cause.There is nothing which the Americans are so likely to resent as any movement begun by such means, and our people in Canada ought to be upon their guard against forming an seism\taSxVohVfbr the renewal of the treaty than they really are.LâTEST MOM ST.JOHN, S.B.St.John, N.B , Jan.26.¦ Revenue sselura, The returns for t! e Inland Revenue Department for the quarter ending Dec.31, show a total for St.John of Si1?,£31, against |s,246 for the preceding quarter.Movements of Tvooi»*.It is rumoured ihat the 4th Battalion Rifle Brigade will be removed from St.John during the Summer ;

Court.\u2014 Francis Leithead, on a charge of highway robbery, was remanded.\u2014 The Treasurer of the Montreal Ladies Benevolent Institution acknowledges the receipt of $144 from Mrs.Ferrier, being the amount of her collections, $10 from Mrs, R, Jones, and $1Q from Mrs, Reekie, Ball in Honour cf the Visit of the Governor General.\u2014This ball will, we suppose, be one of the most brilliant which has ever taken place in Montreal, and we understand that the invitations will be issued almost immediately.There was a great desire on the part of some of the managers that it should be held in the St.Patrick\u2019s Hall on account of the very\u2019 spaciousness of the room in that building.But on other accounts it was found more desirable to have it at the St.Lawrence Hall.This determination, however, re-i tricts the number who can be admitted to about four hundred persons, subscribers and invited guests, all told.The lists of subscribers both for that entertainment and the dinner are said to be rapidly filling up-\t__\t__________ Salt Duties.\u2014The producers of Salt in the Dominion are afraid of being undersold in their own market by those in the United States.The producers in the United States are afraid of being undersold in their own market by those in the Dominion.They are therefore asking for protection against each other.According to this, the United States can send salt to Canada and lay it down cheaper there than Canadians can, and Canada can send salt to the United States and lay it down cheaper there than Americans can, which opens up a curious field for speculation.Personals.\u2014Are all the advertisements in the New York Herald under the head of *\u2018Personal'\u2019 real advertisements ?Are there so many gents, prigs and snobs in the world as to keep up such a flood of trash as from day to day appears in that column ?What unfortunate little snob with a sixpenny cane in his hand, and a cheap tie round his neck was it, that stood watching the party of \u201c stunning\u201d girls as he would describe them, and then rushed frantically to indite a \u201cPersonal\u201d to the \u201cbeautiful blonde, in white jockey, one of a party of six\u201d asking if she would permit an admirer to make her acquaintance ?And he sends the number of the beast in this case 4,737.Every day such things appear, the dress of the fair one is not the same, some times it ia a lady in black in one of the cars, sometimes there are black eyes in the case, at times the lady has been coy, at another kind, but under all of this class the fool is clearly perceptible.Then there are those who are scoundrels and whose advertisements are clearly snares for unsuspecting girls, who possibly out of mere thoughtlessness may have enter ed into conversation with them.It is such fellows as these who make appointments, keep them or break them as may best suit the game they have in view, and apologise by two lines making another appointment.How suggestive of ruin effected, of a life blasted and of deeper degradation to come in the four lines to \u201c Miss \u2014\u2014, I leave for Europe in a few days ; come with me ; keep your promise.Let me see you at once at my .hotel to arrange matters.Tour Baby.'\" Or., for such things are not unknown, has such an advertisement been inserted to ruin the character of a virtuous girl, for in the original the name is so little concealed that the omitted letters could easily be filled up.Toodles, who signs himself \u201cAdmiration,\u201d is of a different stamp, and one of the gushing order who addresses the \u201clady with the sweet, sad face,\u201d entreats her to forgive his earnest gaze, love me, trust me, I am yours.\u201d The sweet, sad face should be enshrouded by a nun like head dress, and a mournful garb, but Toodles perhaps does not know the meaning of words, although fresh from school, and says the nun like beauty had a jaunty velvet basque.What a basque is we know not.Toodles had evidently been basking in the moonlight gaï& of the sweet, sad face, and made himself an ass.Then there is the goodnaturedly silly, with no great romance about him who writes to his \u201c Fatty, your silence pains me- Immediate interview earnestly desired'.Little Fellow.\u201d These and hundreds of others are very silly and may lead to little harm, but others are the records, concealed it is true, of tragedies more harrovring than the most sensational writer could imagine.What is the meaning of the advertisements of so many children to be given away for adoption ?How re uch of the peace of families would be affected by the disclosures of whose is the line healthy infant of American parentage which is at the Nursery for full surrender, or the beautiful pair of twins that would be given to respectable parties.The \u2022children for adoption range from a few hours to two or three years old.Whose is the splendid little boy, ten months old, or the beautiful, male infant of two weeks, or the splendid hoy of two months for a refined Catholic family.The institution, or individual, who has the latter has also other cliildren for Protestant families.That particular concern appears to carry on a thriving business in babies, as every few days it has advertisements of several, which from the descriptions are different children, and not merely the same notices repeated.Who adopts them all ?Are there any tricks played, such as form the plots of novels, in which a wife to regain the affections of a husband passes off the child of another for her own ?Some of the Personals won Id leave room for such a supposition.Hovr else would any one ad vertise that a new born infant is wanted for adoption ?and! such notices are not few.But there a; re strange stories concealed under thesi 3 notices.A child got rid of is advertised for as by a death it has fallen heir to a larg e fortune ; a lady who adopted another is requested to call at the place she obtained it, and she will hear of something to its advantage.And all these mysteries and tragedies and ruined lives are glanced over and passed unnoticed by those who would! devour a sensational novel with avidity, while all the time there is more sensationalism passing under their eyes than ever Wilkie Collins conceived or Miss Braddon dreamed of.But there1 are other secrets going on- Here is an unfortunate young man who will not come to the scratch, and the young woman, one of the Mrs.Cady StP»nton school, pulls him up with a round turn.\u201c If I am not home by ten o\u2019clock,\u201d it is told of a poor Jerry Sneak, \u201cdon\u2019t wait for me, my doar.\u201d \u201c No, my love,\u201d said h!s wife, grimly and significantly, \u201c I won\u2019t wait, I\u2019ll come,\u201d and the veritable history relûtes that Jerry was punctual to time.Iu the personals there is one equally significant.\u201c Thistle, what is the matter that you don\u2019t write?If you don\u2019t write I will come.Rose.\u201d What is there between Rose and Thistle ?Is he a straying husband, or a fickle gweehheart who has been philandering about, :iud feels inclined to draw back ?Or is he some poor noodle, in the toils of an artful woman, who has obtained a power over him that makes him her slave, until he recklessly robs his employer and, plunges over head and ears in guilt, winding up with the penitentiary and the parti-coloured clothing, suited for folly and weakness such as his ?Who is the poor shrinking wretch,, who goes cowering and shivering down j»o his work every day ?Is he one pf his debt of honour ?What pleasant feelings he must have had when he read \u201c Mr.Ch.L.is hereby for the host tiiie requested to pay $119 he owes me.If ni|paid by Saturday noon his name and residence will appear in full until paid.\u201d That will known character in Montreal, Three Finge\u201d :d Jack, used 13 be employed to dun desperate cases, out of whom no one else coifi\u2018 get money, and he besieged them in torn by sap and assault, not scrupling to come up to his victim even when whispering soft nothings to a bevy of ladies.To the, eiaprit he would appear like Azrael tbe Angel of Death, as with a hard voice and dead.yisnorthe would thrust his head into the ce .ire of the group and fixing the debtor wiila his glittering eye demand, \u201c are ye going ;to settle that small account or no\u2019?\u201d .U is hard to say which would bo tbe wore'-, that, or being posted up for a whole CiD to look at.Evi- thieà't was not\" repeated.But the most amusing young scamp is one \u201c Van\u201d who takes things very coolly.Van has evidently got into a scrape and L.M.V., from the style a benevolent but annoying old lady, communicates to him through the personals that she has seen his parents and employers, and depicts every thing as being in a highly satisfactory state for a settlement.Van most irreverently responds, that if the statements are true, L.M.V.must have been in heaven and should bave remained there, \u201cI hope,\u201d saysjVan, \u201c you collected my salary of my employer, and had my wages raised.If so, please remit, and all will be for given.\u201d Afew days afterwards, in answer to another fervent appeal, Van desires the L M V, this time described as Mrs.L.M.V., to \u201c take some slippery L.M.T., soak your feet, and stop being personal.It\u2019s expensive, and the Herald don\u2019t trust.\u201d But, besides these, the newly arrived from Europe advertise for their brothers or sisters, husbands or wives, and many a domestic dra na has been brought to a happy denouement by the personals.Rev John J.A.Imperial Mexico and New York Jour, nals.\u2014The New York Herald has a letter from its correspondent in Mexico, containing the statement that he had occasion lately to make a note of the following from Imperial statistics : \u2014 Biibventions (bribes) to foreign papers, &c\u201e In the United (States : New VorkTribune.$3,000 New York World.2,509 New York News.2,000 Washington Onronicle.2.5C0 Rhiladelphia Ledger,.2,000 Chicago Tribune.\u2014.3,000 New York German Gazette.2,000 To Mr Flint.2,500 St.Louis Republican,.2,ou0 Total.$21,500 To which the Tribune responds that the Government that would give two dimes for the support of most of the journals named in the above list ought to be doomed to destruction for utter want of common sense.The Tribune does not believe a tin sixpence was ever paid to any American journal for championing the Empire, but should not wonder if some smart adventurer managed to screw money out of the treasury on that pretext.The story of the subvention bears falsehood on the very face uf lt., Ontario Gazkteer and Directory.\u2014 For some time back a new Directory for Outario has been in course of preparation, and the work obtaining information is, we understand, completed, so that the Directory will shortly be published.It is intended to contain a complete directory for the cities, towns, and villages in Ontario, the principal inhabitants of each township, lists of the Government officials, post towns, and generally information that will be useful to all who are in the habit of transacting business in Ontario.Tbe agents for the work, Mr, Joseph Harn and Mr, Shields, are in town for the purpose of taking subscriptions and obtaining advertisements.Messrs.Robertson & Cock, the proprietors of the Toronto Telegraph, have taken charge of the work, and will no doubt see that it is creditably produced- ÀK-YSVjËSSëAS\u2019ï MEKTilüGS.The second of the series of Anniversaries was held last night in ihe Great St.James Street Wesleyan Church.The Church was well filled, and the operations of the Canada Sunday School tfEion were the subjects of the remarks on this occasion.The proceedings were opened with singing, and prayer by the Rev.Dr.Taylor.The Rev.Dr.ÜAWSON, the President, on opening the meeting, said there were three things to which he would hi icfly draw the attention of the audience.First, the Sunday School Union represented the principle that the command \u201c Suffer little children to come unto me,\u201d was not a negativi command, as as much as possible had been done, Second\u2014That the meeting would be tble to learn from the report of the Committee that the work in which they had been engaged was ateond to none of the Societies now working,ibOanada, and if it had not done asunuch work as it ought to have done it was because they had not the means at their disposal.Thirdly\u2014He was glad to see on'the programme names; of geutb men who were able to bring out muen practical truth iu an interesting manner.Rev.Mr.BONAR then read the report from which the foiiowiug facts may be gathered :\u2014 The results of the agents\u2019 labours so far as they can be presented in the form of statistics show on the part of Mr.McKillican 25 school^ organized with 117 teachers, 848 scholars ; and 83 schools visited, with 433 teachers, and 3591 scholars ; aud 1Î4 sermons and addresses delivered.Mr.Walker has organized 13 schools, with 65 teacher-; and 480 scholars, and has visited 103 schools, with 784 teachers aud 6669 scholars, and has delivered 190 sermons and addresses .In all, the agents of the Canada Sunday School Union have planted 38 Sabbath Schools, which are all new centres of gospel influences\u2014in some places the only evangelical agencies at work In the neighbourhood.They have engaged in active services for Christ 182 persons who profess to pieach the gospel from the log school bouse or the extemporized seats of the log cabin in the woods to an aggregate Sabbath congregation of 1328 children and youths.In addition the agents have spoken words of counsel and encouragement to 1217 teachers, who had already been engaged in 186 schools betore established ; aud both directly in their sermons and addresses to the children and teachers in schools visited have sought to influence for good 10,260 precious youug souls, who in a few years may be the men and women who shall bear their part in determtniug the destiny of our beloved Canada.In 224 Sabbath Schools they have permitted to labour.They have addressed 1399 Sabbath School teachers nrx the responsibility aud duties ot their posi« tiou.They have spoken of Jesus aud the power or the cross to 11,388 children besides having had tfi*3 opportunity of urging upon thousands of pare.nts the necessity of a personal experience of the truth as the indispensible qualification for discharging their pareutal obligations to their offspring.THE DEPOSITORY Has continued during the past year under the careful and efficient management of Mr.Thomas Muir.There has bssn a steady in-creaise of business, The cash sales for 1868 being $1,953 against $1,901 for 186Ï.There is now a balance on hand of $11.63 to go to the profit account.At tbe Annual Sunday School Convention ih St.Catherines the Committee of tliis Society were represented, and rejoiced to learn of the formation of the Ontario Sabbath School Association and the Ottawa Citv Association working in ja similar manner to this Association The Committee would return their thanks to the Religious Tract Society of ijondon for its continued favours.They also return thanks to the friends who have assisted In any way tbe Association, aud with this report they resign their trust for the last year.Moved by the Rev.W.J.SHAW, seconded by the Rev.JOHN McKILLICAN, and Resolved,\u2014\u201cThat the Report now read be received and adopted, and that the following gentlemen be the Office-bearers and Committee of Management for the ensuiug year.\u201d Preudent\u2014J.W.Dawson, L L.D., Principal of McGill

P.D.Browne, Wm.Dickson, Jas.Stewart, B.Irwin, E.F.Ames, James Corntine, Theo.Lyman, Thomas Leeming, and John Murphy.Rev.Wm.SHAW iu moving the above resolution, said that he believed in enthusiasm iu anything that was good \u2014in warm earnest efforts controlled\t¦\u2018\u2022nd guided by judg- rorTfle!n()frs.-u,l'litTa ia the knowlecfsfe of'our duty to instruct children, but above all is the command of Jesus,\u2014Suffer little children to come to me.He urged, for many reasons, the coi\u2019tiuuatiou of efforts iu this Direction.He congratulated the meeting on the favourable report, and hoped the Association might still continue to prosper.Rev.Mr, McKILLICAN said that since last census 15 couaties had boon visited, and 43,-887 children sddresssd.In 5 counties there were 13,794 Children who had attended common schools.The more he considered the subject, he was fain to think that enough had not been done, and more must be done, In 7 counties 15,876 children attended, common schools, and if he were to estimate those in all these counties who had no religious iustruetiou, it would be perfectly appalling.Iu 19 schools, 85 children had been savingly converted.God has laid upon ns all the necessity of giving all the children of our Dominion religious instruc-tiou.In one district there had been a great effort made, aud nearly every child within it had been gathered into Sabbath Schools.But look at those districts partially unsettled, where there are 15 or 20 miles between each settlement.After one visit from the Sunday School Agent., in some instances, Churches have been at once formed.At these meetings,persons have met who have never met before, ami there learned that there were others who could sing with them the old songs of Zion.At these places the Sabbath School had had a mighty influence, and had sent forth from the wilds to the world young men and young women, who had risen to places of trust in this and the neighbouring country.Just one remark\u2014He wished that all would ever do their duty for our new country \u2014the new Dominion.Rev.Dr.MILLAR, of Ogdensburgh, said ho had much pleasure in moving the following resolution :\u2014 Resoloed,\u2014\u201c That in the Sabbath School we recognize an institution framed according to the Word of God, aud eminently adapted to reaoh the human heart at the .most impressive and hopeful period of life ; that in view of the instrumentality by which this agent seeks the regeneration of the young heart, namely, the Word of God, and the power on which it depends for success, the Spirit of God ; in view of the value of the Sabbath School to the Church as an appropriate means of seeing to The religious instruction of tho children ot hei members, aud of its peculiar adaptation to reach a large class of children who are beyond all other religious influences ; we acknowledge the obligation and privilege of seeking to advance its interests by our prayers aud cordial co-opera-tioB.He was most happy to \"Some from the other side of the Line and shake hands with his Canadian brethren, and would say, as Abraham did to Lot: \u201cLet there bo no strife bttween thee and me, for we be brethren,\u201d (Applause.) The Anglo-Saxon race bad its own particular mission to accomplish, and, if he looked at the matter aright\u2014that was to evangelize the world\u2014through its London and American Bible Societies, its Tract Societies, its Sabbath Schools.While it was true that the Anglo-Saxon tongue was gaining all through the world, it carried through with it civil and reli-g ous liberty.He was, therefore, glad to meet with the audience and to talk to them.Sabbath School work was just beginning to be appreciated by all\u2014from the President of the United States to the lowest citizen, from Queen Victoria on the throne\u2014a noble Sunday School teacher\u2014-(applause)\u2014to the lowest peasant\u2014 all appreciated Sabbath Schools.From the Atlantic to the Pacific, from North to South, the country had to be peopled\u2014and here was a field for missionary labour, for Sabbath School work.The Sabbath School cause should arouse every heart to labour.When the Covenant was made there was a large place left for children, and since then where had they been left out?The children of the Church are the hope of the Church, and for the Church they must be instructed.Again, early impressions never wear off\u2014.childhood is the time marked off by God for instruction\u2014early lessons are never forgotten.They follow the child through life.We have, then, to make those impressions good ones\u2014Remember thy Creator in tae days of thy youth\u201d was the command.Childhood was the day of faith.Speak to the children of the love of Jesus, and they will believe you, but wait a little longer and they will distrust you.In childhood they have not become the devil\u2019s workshop Childhood was the day ot conversion.Where do you look, pastors, for your flocks?To the children.There is only one eleventh hour mentioned\u2014-but the promise is, \u201c Seek Me early and ye shall find Me.\u201d Then we have the inestimable value of the soul, \u201cWhat shall aman give in exchange for his soul?\u201d Teachers persevere.Every soul you influence for good you crown aud make a King unto God, You raise to a new position and raise up a new witness for the Master.There is besides for you, ye teachers, a field for warming your own heart.You have witness to bear, a work to do, and thus strengthen your own souls.Where is there a finer field for wo k than the Sabbath School ?Upon the young heart we work best by the Sabbath School.Tell them of Jesus and they will come in\u2014sing to them the sacred songs and you induce them to stay aud hear of Jesus\u2014and soon you gather together a number of souls to fit tor the Master\u2019s use.A Sabbath School opens the way for a church.Where can we stop in our description of the work.Let us strive to impress upon this American continent\u2014your land and miue \u2014the image of Jesus.Let us hold up Jesus as the paiuter did, who spent years in paioting a picture ou which was the face of his beloved Master\u2014who said that if the Master was not the central object, let all the rest be blotted out.Ourselves for Jesus\u2014Children for Jesus\u2014and then shall wo have a part in crowning Him, Lord of All.Mr.H.LYMAN said that the Sabbath School Anniversary had been fittingly placed at the commencement of the series of meetings.Of right, the Sabbath Association had held its annual session first, and essentially the Sabbath School Union held the second positionna it was the foundation stone upon which the Church was built, and like a foundation stone, it was often lost sight of, until a massive structure had been raised upon it.He said that, however largely the truth was scattered among the children, it would never be lost.The tru;h must be sown beside all waters, and God will take care of tbe rest.In the morning the seed must be sown, and in the evening the hand must not be withholden.He had very much pleasure in seconding the above resolution.The CHAIRMAN then called upon the Rev.Dr.Burus from the United States to address the meeting.Rav.Dr.BURNS, of Chicago, said that although he had been long under the stars and stripes he had still the same affection he had ever had for the flag which had \u201c braved a thousand years the battle and the bretza.\u201d (Applause.) At the opening of his church iu Chicago the old old flag had floated, iu the shape of one which had been presented by the Mayor of Toronto to those residents of Chicago who had manfully left Chicago at the risk of losing their situations to strike for the altars of their sires, their hearths and their homes, to defend them against the Fenians.(Applause.) At the Sunday School Anniversary at St.Catherines the old flag and the American flag had been twined together, and at the same time the bands of the respective countries had played the good old air \u201c God Save the Queen\u201d and the non less national air of \u201c Yankee Doodle.\u201d He would hope that the \u201c tongue\u201d of the man who dared to utter a sentiment that might change good feeling into animosity between the two nations might cleave to the roof of ins mouth,\u201d and that \u201c the right hand should forget its cunniug\u201d of him who dared to pen a line that would involve these two countries in war.Sabbath Schools were feeders of the Church.They are a channel for the work of the Church.Ministers avail themselves of the services of those devoted ones who desire to bring the lambs to Christ, A Sabbath School with which a previous speaker had been connected had sent out over a hundred ministers of the Gospel ; but even amongst those who had gone out there were unruly unes.Some of them had to be expelled the school on account of their ill-behaviour ; but the truths taught them had sunk mio their hearts, and afterwards had brought forth fruu in their lives.Amongt such was Morrison, the great Apo.-tle of China.Although he had not appeared at the time to have bsnefitted, the little leaven had worked and had achieved good results, Tne Sabbath School is a developer.Ha believed that entombed in the pews were powers that, if baptized by the Spirit, would Usher iu the latter day glory so much prayed for.There are many whose powers seem bound up, but the Lord hath need of them and says : \u201c Loose them and let them go.\u201d The Lord wants them iu the schools aud requires them to say, \u201c Here am I, send me.\u201d Sometimes the Sabbath School is made a supplanter of parental influence.It should he only a supplementer.He had himself visited the precious spsi where lay the ashes_ of the good Jonathan Edwards, near which were deposit d the remains of the notorious Aaron Bird, and who, for want of proper discipline fron his uncle Jonathan Edwards, had well nigh come to a felon\u2019s grave, Eli, and allowed tneiV\u2019ofiilaron' To Tirvo IiVcir own way, Instead of like Abraham, who \u201ccommanded his family.\u201d Solomon, perhaps, seeing the ill which had befallen his brother Adonij ib, whom his father never crossed, was in his \u201c Proverbs\u201d especially particular about oorrection.Besides goverumeut, inspection was wanted.Great care must be taken in this particular, so that teachers aud managers may appear \u201c faultless and blameless \u2019 ; aud when asked, \u201c Where is thy child ?Where is thy brother ?\u201d they might be free from blood guiltiness ia this Blatter.Who can help saying with Robert Rilkes, \u201c What hath God wrought V How many children are being continually drafted from the Sabbath School into the Church ?How much more should we not rejoice if the veil were only taken an ay and we could see\u2014 \u201c Around the throne of God in Heaven \u201c Tnousands of oaild en stand, \u201c Children whose sins are all forgiven, \u201c A holy, happy baud.\u201d Then, take in with the thousands above the thousands on earth on their way to heaven, how much more will we not say\u2014\u201c What hath God wrought I\u2019 Still, there are many who want gathering in to the Sunday School\u2014 \u201c Gather them in with a fervent zeal ; \u201cGather them iu for thdrcountry\u2019s weal.\u201d We must lift these children up from the mire of degradation.We shall not lose our reward.The Rev gentleman here related au affecting anecdote of a little child on its dying bed telling its teacher that he had led him to Jasus, and after saying this had died.Then \u201c Do not be discouraged, \u201c For Jesus Is your friend.\" Aud \u201cThough scoffers mock, they mock lu vain.\u201c Work done for God Is not in vain, \u201c Whate\u2019er be done may be' forgot.\u201c Work done for God it dieth not,\u201d Be encouraged by this, aud persevere in your noble work.Rev.Dr.BUSH, of Rochester, was sure the Canada Sunday School Union was doing a great work for the Dominion, and carried its blessings all.through the land.If he spoke to one who knew not the blessedness of being a Sunday School teacher, he hoped he would be so no longer.It is said, \u201c Go work to day in my vineyard I\u201d Are you, are we doing so ?The Suuday School is sometimes thought beneath notice.The good President Harris did not think so, when about to take office as President.When he reached Washington he was informed that he would be obliged to keep a dog to prevent his garden from being robbed by the boys.He answered no, aud said he would start a Sunday School instead.Many say they are not qualified tor Sunday School woik.They only want bringing out of their shell.There is plenty of talent in this country, which could turn the world right side up.(Applause.) You who approve must go to work.From a Sunday School class in Rochester had been sent 36 young men to fight for the Flag,\u201415 of whom had laid down their lives for their country.These boys had worked, and brought scores to Christ.630 have gone from that school into the work of the Church.Thousands here are domg nothing, who might be great workers.When the Maine Law was passed, one man\u2014a drunkard\u2014had voted for it, but had stated that it was too late to benefit him.The same remark would hold good here.With many the same may bo said.Sabbath School education came too late ! too late ! Let us then ba \u201c up and doing.\u201d Ha had much pleasure in moving the third resolution :\u2014 Resolved,\u2014\u201c That in seeking tha diffusion of sound aud instructive religious literature, and in tbe establishing of Sabbath Schools in destitute localities, and in the manifold labours of its Agents in the good cans;, the Canada Sunday School Union.is deserving of our confidence and support.\u201d Mr.BECKET seconded it.Dr DAWSON hoped that this meeting nvght infuse new iite into the Sabbath School Union, and not only should our sympathy be confined to the city, but all through the country should this work be more vigorously prosecuted, The proceedings were then brought to a close by the singing of the Doxology and the Benediction by the Rev.Dr.Bancroft.We, the undersigned, heartily approve of the above address : JOHN'BETHUNE, Rector and Dean of Montreal.W.ANDERSON, Honourary Canon.CHARLES BANCROFT, D.D., Honourary Uanon.WM.BONO, Honourary Canoe.To which the Rev.Canon Balch made the folsowing reply : I am deeply grateful to you, my friends, for this expression of good-will on tha nart of the members of the congregation of Christ Church Oathedrol.Like other similar instances of kindness which have preceded it, and from the same source, it creates a life-long obligation on myself and my family.The cordial endorsement of your act, by the Very Reverend the Deau aud the Canons of the Cathedral enhances its value aud binds me closer in affection to those veneiable dignitaries of the Church.That I have not intruded on the labour to which you refer in the address now presented to me, may appear from these facts.In March, 1866, our late Metropolitan sent me to Lennoxville to become thoroughly acquainted with the condition of Bishop\u2019s College aud to confer with a Rev.Fresuyter of the dio-seua to\"tne States, to collect fuuTS 1er TLo college.His Lordship also placed in my hands all the reports of tha Church Society and of the Dioee-sun Syuod, with a request that haviug carefully read them, I would indicate the matters requiring urgent effort.Diocesan Missions, Church Education, and the debt on the Cathedral, seemed to me to be the most pressing-\u2014and in the order named\u2014 but the Bishop reversed the order, aud requested that, before all others, and above all others, I should first attempt the liquidation of the Cathedral debt.His wish, of coarse, had the effect of law in such a case.Subsequently, he desired that I should accept the office of Secretary of the Church Society, which, by a unanimous vote, was tendered to me, aud afterwards, when the Church Society was merged into the incorporate! Synod, at the joint rr quest of the Bishop and the Synod, I accepted the office.You have been pleased, iu the address, to speak in friendly terms of my labours as Secretary.They are far below what I could wish them to be, aud are only valuable, as the Master deigns to accept and prosper them.I shall not recite them.An account of o y stewardship iu this behalf will be rendered at the proper time.Suffice it to aay that the recent missionary tour through the Deanery of Bedford (in which I was most ably assisted by the Rural Dean, the Clergy aud Laity), iu its results, was all I could wish, and more than I expected.If, by God\u2019s blessing, similar results shall attend the meetings yet to be held iu the rest of the Diocese, our Church will have reason to expect that the day is not far distant when she will bo entirely self-supporting as well as self-Oxtendiug.The effort on behalf of Church Education, to which also you allude, was inaugurated with every prospect of success.The death of our Bishop of necessity suspended the effort during the vacancy iu the Episcopate.It is, however, we trust, only a suspension.So urgent is the need, so manifold tue advantages, so lasting the benefits of Church Schools, which give the maximum of education at the minimum of cost, that our Chief Pastor cannot fail to take up the good work and carry it to a successful issue.He may rely on the hearty co operation of every Churchman who loves his country and his Church.Gratitude speaks in a few words\u2014deeds are its lauguage, I trust, my friends, that you will accept the labours of the rest of my fife, to be spent in your service, as the best proof I can giye how truiy I appreciate this act of kindness on your part.Between tha ages of five and twelve the death rates here are remarkably low, from tbe simple fact that all were killed off before reaching that age.A relative average of 18 adults to 43 children die throughout the year.The proportion was awful, and, as a standing fact, was a frightful commentary on the sanitary condition of the city.In every year the most unhealthy month among adults was April.More children died in 1868 than in lfc67.In the second week of March the number of deaths among children doubled that of the first, doubtless because of the poisons arising from the melting snow.Iu September the weekly death rates among children were 87, 84 and 109, aud then with the advent of cold Weather they went down with a bound to 44.It had been said that the practice among Roman Catholics of taking their children to be baptized immediately after birth caused a large number of deaths by exposure to cold.But the lower avet\u2019ges of the winter months prored this to be untrue.In England there were 18 cases of sickness to one of death ; here two children out of five died, so that it w a impossible to offer an analogy.TueiectU ir offered a large number of statistics, eu 1 condemned the filthy yards and bad drainage uf the city as direct causes of its uuheaituLiess Dr.GIRDWOOD coimid d with Dr.C irpen-ter.He showed how the abomina.ions r f the lower part of tee city rushed upwards.through the city in the form of impure air, aud escaped at every opportunity through the veuts.Mi.G.STEPHENS, an a uiumb i of iha Health Committee, spoke of the efforts cf too Council to introduce and carry out proper tary laws.He condemned the system of wooot a drains, now so much adopted In houses.T> t: brick sewers in the streets were also badly con-btrncted, and seemed, iu reality, meant to stand as short a time as possible.Dr.DAWttON closed the debate with a few pertinent remarks, and the meeting adjourned.CITY JCTEMS.\u2014The United Board of Out-Door Relief rc -knowledge, with thanks, the following con tions : \u2014Alexander Buntin & Co , $100 ;

all of whom he more or less injured, tearing their uniforms, etc: He made a most brutal assault upon P.C.Morrison, cutting his face, kicking him iu the stomach and elsewhere.The prl -oner was at length brought to the ChaboilUz Square station, and by order of Sergeant D-n-neily, the officer in charge, he was ordered to be baud cuffed and placed in the cells.A large crowd assembled during the melee, and seemed to encourage the prisouer in ids acts of violence.Montreal Typographical Union \u2014At a meeting of the Montreal Typographie 1 Union, No.97, held last night, it was resolved to present an address to His Excellency the Governor-General, on his official visit to this city,a;

left for hours on cold stands, ia some cases with no covering, \u2014they were to be pitied ; but still more so when they were driven, savagely whipped, with their mouths jerked aud sawed, and too often overdriven and over laden.This over-loading was terribly cruel in the cate of heavy carts.He regretted that whipping, jerking aud sawing were practised by some grooms, who, in their turn, followed the example of their masters.He held that whiopisg should be the last resort with horses, as with boys\u2014not the first, as it too often is, Shakespeare had long since found out how useless much of the whipping was, when ha said, \u201c Your dull ass won\u2019t mend his pace with beating.\u201d He urged all drivers to try kindness as a chauge ;

and he believed could get the help of almost every one who could aid them by good example, by uot permitting child, groom, or carter to be cruel in their presence, and by speaking and acting for the dumb animals whenever the op portunity presented itself, as it only too soon would.Bacon had said wisely, and beautifully 11 Man is the god of the t'og\u201d\u2014he is, equ-lly so of all animals, and we should try to imitate the dealing of cur Maker with us, believing with Coleridge that » He prayeth best who loveth best All things both great and small, For the dear God who loveth us He made aud loveth all.\u201d At the close of the paper, it was suggested by Principal DAWSON aud others, that such a Society as had been spoken of should be o gan ized without delay, and that a meetiug be held for that purpose.Dr.CARPENTER then made a commumca-tion \u201c On some cf the features of the Montreal Mortality Returns for 1868.\u201d He said all the remarks just made applied with even greater force to the erualty shown to man\u2019s life in neglecting the sanitary condition of the city.Every child had a right to be born and to live.The last proposition did not seem to be believed in Montreal.Here they seemed to try to kill children and the wonder is not that so many died bat\u2019that so many lived.Estimating the population of Moutrcal at 128,000, the average number of deaths per thousand was as follows : \u2014 1864\u2014\t45 1865\u2014\t38 1866\u2014\t32 1867\u2014\t38 1868\u2014\t40 Boston, with its immense Irish and immigration elements, showed only 23.simply because sanitary laws were faithfully executed.Loudon, the largest and most crowded city iu the world, | 25.Liverpool, although the most unhealthy | of r11 English cities, 36.\t1 The Fire at Rivierb du Lour.\u2014 We learn thaï an appeal has been made to the sympathy tiu-.i benevolence of the friouds of Mr.N.M uuhand, who kept the hotel at the Graud Trunk Rail-,-way station, at the terminus, Riviere du Louo.During his absence from borne, hi.i ho .teoK fire on Friday, 22nd instant, at 4 a.m., aud within an hour everything in it was consumed, and three of his ohildreu burnt to r, ei mi r, : o that their remains woum nor rrrt a gnuon Va a sure.Mrs.Marchand was compelled to retmai in a state of almost nudity, and has h d her feet very badly frozen.The attention of'vir.Marchand to his guests cannot fail to be rea.umbered by many in Montreal who are iu the h suit of going to the salt water iu summer, audit is hoped that iu this, the hour of his misery and need, they will bear him in kindly remembrance.Mr.Marchand had no insurance, a jection is to the competency ol the treaty making power to take any steps tiiat provide revenue.But his ground is weak even her^, for the raising of revi nue is ji ui-HvaU UN II'E THE SAN JOAN B JUNDiRY, The following is a copy of tbe tieaty between the United States and Great Britain, signed at London, J nuary 14, providing for tne reference to ao arbitrator of th - water boundary be tween the United States and the British pos-set-sions in Nortn America:\u2014 AbTiGLH 1.It was btipuiated by the treaty concluded at Washington on the 15!.h ot June, 1846, between the Queen of the United Ktng-uom and tbe United States of America, that the line ol boundary between the ternt nies oi her Britannic Majesty and thObe of the United States, from the point on the forty-nintu parallel of north latitude up to which it had ai-r< ady been ascertained, nhould be continued westward to the middle of the channel which separates the Continent from Vancouver\u2019s Island, and theuCo south ri y through the middle otthe channel and of Fucts Straits to the Pacific Ocean ;

the operator j, ulped patntully, but the obstruction would not stir.The natural moisture of the throat was gone, aud soldered irons could not a ihere more firmly than did tho glutinous egg to the parched throat.The sufferer gulped and strained in vain.He setz-d the iron handle of the saucepan which contained the boiled eggs, and was about to ii j ret the obstruction when the opposite party caried\u201c foul.\u201d The umpire, with extraordinary judicial perspicacity, rendered his decision\u2014that the operator might ii ject or eject at pleasure by mechanical aid, hut the eggs to injected or ejected would not count.He went on to give his reasons, and got to the \u201c thirdly,\u201d when the suffocating wretch, now purple in the face as the gills of a male turkey, eyes distended outside their sockets, breathing stertorous, bolted the recalcitrant egg with the handle of the raucepan.Seventeen regular eggs and a blank in 16J minutes.The cater sank into a chair entirely exhausted, with stomach ia a volcanic state.Aftcratwo minutes\u2019 rest, three more eggs wore bolted in manifest pain eyes ruu-niog water, and the whole frame twitching spasmodically.Twenty-four eggs in 25 miuu tes, -nd the operator throws up the sponge and is taken away by nis backers.The amount of the wager was $50 THi TREATY WITH CANADA.AH Mr.Moran\u2019s objections to tbe renewal of ;

and aller having dwelt for a little space on the purely spiritual and religious aspects of the words, he proceeded to comment at greater length on the sut j ct which he evidently feit mo t deeply, and wbich he called 1 a grievous blow dealt at the Church of God.\u2019 He reminded his hewers th t on Chrieimas day to had briefly i- f rated them of the disastrous tidings, but to have dwelt at fall length upou them then ho fill would have been desecration of a sacred festival.He alluded, he said, to the recent decision of a tribunal which he particularly desired his hearers to remember was a tribunal cot recognized or sancth/Ded bv the Cunich, but which had by a m mt unjust decree upset the decision ot the Church's own triouu»! \u2014the Court of Aicites T -e Privy Council, he remarked, was Ouly a creature of Parliament, and it was not necessary that the men should be churchmen or even Christians ; but they were or mignt be in-fidels, heretics and unbelievers.He drew the attention ot bis hearers to tbe state of lethargy iu wbich the church was steeped five and thirty years ago, and contrasted that state with its present condition.Then it did not trouble it self or the world witn religion, and the world was satisfied.Now religion ia its all in all.It presses religious duties on the world\u2019s notice, and the world is in consequence displeas'd.Direct'y the church, said the speaker, shakes herself from her deep sleep aud becomes faithful to her Lord ; directly she rouses from the slumber in which she was sunk, and endeavours to arouse in others a sense of their duties, then we very soon find out that oar lot here is, as onr bletsed Lord i-aid it would be, to be reviled and hated, the objects of suspicion and obloquy.As long, he eontinu d, as the church is the friend of the rich, the companion of the educated, and is polite to the middle classes, without being intrusive, aud shares the dniies of the relieving officer aud of the policemen towards the poor, the world lets her pass, and commends her for her wise spirit of tolerance.But now tbat the church is in earnest it is per-S'Cut' d; it is in the condition of tne words of Bt Paul, \u2018Troubled on every side ;\u2019 and he doubted not ibat days of prosecution and persecution were in store, and that some would stal their confession with their hlood.He con sidered that the judgmem of the Privy Conn-cil on one point\u2014the light on the altar\u2014was an attack on one of tbe great Christian verities \u2014one which he had always taught and inculcated in that church, and one which he would always teach\u2014the doctrine of the real presence.The opponents of the revival of high religious thoughts and practices were very icady with their objections to the symbols by which tho church strove to dignify the doctrines she taught.They call the symbols mummeries, the doctrines superstitions, tbe object priestcraft, and the end Popery.The significance of altar lights is, as tbe congregation well knew, that Christ is the light of the world.Where, asked Mr Richards, is any superstition in this ?But the world does not like to be reminded of its duties and obligations, aud, therefore, it tries to stifle the voice of those who would remind it.Let not his hearers be cast down.The day womd surely come, and come soon, when the doctrines of the Church would he triumphant.Though troubled nn every side, j ec were they not distr ssed ; perplexed, but not iu despair ; perseem d, hut not forsaken ; cast down, but not destroyed.The preacher conclud' d a very long d scourse by calling upon his people henceforth to let outward signs testify to tne inward belief of the gUti-Vmriieis n all the shop-windows throughout the City.IT ough the nay was far from blight in the suburns, tne absolute darkness was confined to tne central districts of the metropolis, and was thickest iu the streets near the river.Juurne.v-iug nerthwa'd, the wayfarer had a lompirative-ty ItgUt-firey say belore him, while ou tU'ntug to look uack tie saw the houses still obscuren by me overnausiiug density of the higher at.musphere.Later in the d'.y the fog HistCendtd, aud a cii zz lug mist spread over all thy neigh-huuihooUs round London.Affectation Am-ng Pretty Wimbn \u2014Th-rc is a kind of affecta ion very cominou auioi g pietty women ;

but if you speak to her of the effect of the trick, she purs on an air of the extremest innocence, and protests her entire ignorance of anything her eyes may say or muau, and it yon press her hard, she will look at you the same way for jejur own benefit, and done at tho very moment of offence.Various other tricks has she v>ith ¦\those bewildering eyes of hers, each more perilous than the other to men\u2019s peace, and ail unsparingly employed, no matter what the result.Laiuway Fares in England.\u2014The following article treats upon a sutjsct ot interest on this side of the water ;\u2014 \u201cA paper was lead at the British Inventors\u2019 Institute recently by Mr.R.Brandon, on \u2018 Consolidation of Management of Railways, and Uniformiiy of Fares for all Distances.\u2019 Mr.Brandon, having pointed out the errors in t ie present system of railway management and scale of fares, proceeded to argue that railways should be placed under one management, government or otherwise, aud should charge a uniform rates of fares The analogy of the post-office was exact, especially now when it has a book and parcel delivery, aud is also a transmitter of money.Government was also about to take possession of the telegraph, and had only to take one step more and undertake the railways.He showed that the present relatione between shareholders aud railway property were most unsatisfactory, the average dividend on £500 000,000 sterling having been last year only 3jj per cent.At present the fares averaged Is.for each person; but by this plan the fares w mid be Is.first class 6J.second, and 3J.third; and Jie calculated tbat t e liumner of passengers would be in-.reesed sixfold.He would piopose that all the luggage should be paid for, as, if a man go from London to Yurk for 6d, he could hardly expect to get a hundred weight of luggage, w.jieli n quired porterage, carried for nothing.By this plan, taken us a whole, he expi.cted the ioilowing results.Single tickets, 17 millions sterling; annual.18 millions; express trains, 11 millions; 3d.fares, half a million ; luggage charge, 4 millions; saving in management by amalgamation, 3A millions\u2014total contemplated revenue, 55 millions, being an excess over ' he present gross revenue of 38 millions sterling.Ho had not entered 'uto any calculatioi s s to goods trams, as he did not think th y would be much affected by the proposed change.To show that he was hot too sarguine iu his anticipations, he might mention that in the old coaching dais 8u,0u0 passengers were daily carried iu 3000 coaches, whereas ia 1865 the trains carrieu 8 ,0,000 dahy.He believed, therefore, that his calculations would prove du rest, but even if the increase should be only three-fold, there would still be an enotmous pecuniary advantage, whilst the benefits to the public of all elassts would be enormous, especially to the labourers, who were now often abut out from their market by the cost of railway travelling.He preferred that Government should take tbe whole of the railway capital at a Value based on a seven years \u2018 average of quotations, and that the interest should- be 4 2-5 per cent.Deferred Sharis and bund-holders would be paid out of the surplus revenue after the pay ment of the above charges.The Cnai man (Mr H.Williams), whilst inviting discussion, demurred to Mr.Braddon's calculations There would be a great increase of expenditure in providing increased accommodation, in meeting greater wear and tear, and the requirements of increased traction.Tne expenses of management must also be heavy, as first-rate men al-wavt required large salaries.The North Western Railway Company gave th>ir inspecting engineer £5,000 a year.He had no dom t however, hue that great advamage to the public would be the resuit of nnilormity of management and reduction of fares in the case of the metropolitan lints.There was also the question of compensation for accidents, which must he considered, 'ihe North Western com \u2022 pany had paid in one year 148,000 in com-pensation.It is true they only paid £5,000 tor tne Aberueie accident, but iu that case the claimants were ail burnt up.He believed that the law on this sul j ct uuiiat be revised, and that a fix, d scale ot compensation must be established, bused ou the class by which the passenger has travelled.\u201d The War Office and Abvssinia.\u2014A serious charge, iuvotving Sir John Paking-ron, as the late war secretary, has just come to light.Lord Napier of Migdala, leaving iSnglaud, proposed that a supplementary Abyssinian gazette should be issued, to include the names of many officers of merit who, from various causes, hud been passed over in the first guz jtto.Such a gazette was prepared by Lord Napier, submitted to and approved by the Horse Guards, aud forwarded to the War Office authorities, who, however, took upon themselves lo r< ject it altogether.Their only reason for thus slighting tue man whom all England at th,i time was eager to honour, is that the guzitfce was too large.They, however, never -made any proposition for reducing it, nor sent it buck to L -rd Nrpier for amendment.They simply njecti-d the list altogether, thereby insolently snubbing Lord Napier and depriving of honour many officers who, bv their owu admission, merit the usual recognition for services, fchr John Pakingtou was, at the time, at the head of the department.Emigeah n to Canada.\u2014The Saturday Tie view holds that emigration is the only rem* dy for the chronic destitution of East London ; bat iu the extension of emigration to this class very much more caution would be necessary than iu dealing with the agiicultural labourer.The selection of unfit subjects for the experiment might easily bring the process into discredit both at home and iu the colonies ; and in the case of a district wuich has already to a considerable extent been drained of its able boJied in habitants, it will be requisite to take great care not to increase the number of those whom the loss of a son or a brother would condemn to absolute helplessness No doubt the East-end Emigration Committee is thoroughly alive to the impoitance of avoiding these dangers, but the publication of a detailed statement of the method on which they proceed might greatly enhance the flow of public liberality.It is quite time,, however, tbat the Government should again take up the whole subject.It is not one which can be adequately handled by any suii-ordinate agency.The interests opposed to an t-xtensivo emigration, especially of the agricultural population, are too numerous to be opposed with success, except by thatcomplete organization which only official persons can command.Lord Granville could not better signalize his tenure of the colonial Office than by the construction, iu concert with the colonial uu-tnonties, of a sysL m by which the opportunity of emigtation should he offered to those with GENERAL ITEMS.\u2014The French wheat propped is bad.\u2014Ohicago pickpockets- attend church professionally.\u2014No stone or mark of any kind is placed by the grave of William Tenu in a little village church yard a f :w miles ftom London.^ \u2014A Hebrew bible, dated 1491 or 1492, printed noon parchment, was lately sold in London for $800 \u2014Miss Reno did not sw at vengeance against her brothers\u2019 murderers.A reporter invented the story.\u2014 New York has had twenty-nine senators in sixty years.Mr Fentoa is the first chosen from that part of the State wes;
