Wright, of Millbank, was unable to return for the evening session. He was now parmitted to give bis address on "Temperance," and the Rev. J. C. McCracken, of Chesley, being present be was also invited to address the convention, and took up the subject of Missions. â€" Both these gentlemen are clergymen of the chuich of Eogland, and their addresses were of a high order and were lis{ened to with the utmost interest and attention, It is seldom indeed that we aro privileged with listening. to such scho‘larly and well prepired addresses. It being their first visit to this convention they were permitted to occupy about all the time at the disposal of tue convention, leaviog little or no room for tho usual discussion. Mr, George Fras>r then took up the Bible lesson and, owing to the crowded condition of the house, had to take the audience before hiu for a class, which plased him at a considerâ€" able disadvantage. _ Next in order was vhe teaching of an infant class, set down to Mrs. Martin, of Waterloo, but she being unable to ke present, Rev. Bean, of Wellesley, was invited to give an address to the children and did so in a manner most creditable to himself, his address being replete with instruction for both young and old. Anadjournment was again made to the basement where acrother sumptuous repist was provided, and of which the hunadreds present heartily partook. EVENING SESSION. Promptly abt 6 30 the evening session was opened with & song service and prayer by Rev. 8. Cuoningham. Mr. W.F. Babb,of Linwood, then introduced his essay on Punctuality and Regulariâ€" ty, but we regret to say that the comâ€" motion necessary in seating the crowd of people that pourcd inat this particuâ€" lar time, made the reading of his paper very hard work. The essay, however, was a most excellent cn3, and, believing that is will be found interesting to the readers of the CnnroxtcL®, we subjoin it to this report. This was followed by a very excelleat address by Rev.S$S.Cunâ€" ningham on the "Value of Illustration in Teaching." & These several gentlemen having to leave, a very hearty vote of thanks was tendered them for the very valuable services they had rendered the con vention by their saveral addresses. â€" The reports from the schools of the townsbip in connection with this Assoâ€" ciation were then received and may be summarized as follows : No. of scholars and teachers in the Linwood Methodist................ Crosshill Presbyterian.............. Hawkesville Methodist. ... ......... Zion 3rd line Presbyterian.......... Hawkesville U. B. Union.......... Ha s kesville Presbyterian .......... Linwood Presbyterian.............. Several motions were made with a view of fixing a time for the holding of the convention when more favorable weather could be reasonably expected, but after considerable discussion the motions were.â€"withdrawn, and the proâ€" posal of the retiring President, that the fixing of the date of the next meetâ€" ing be lefb with the executive, was acâ€" cepted, end the first session brought to & close, the Rev, J.

At 2 30 o‘clock the convention was again called to order by the President elect, Mr. G. Tanner, and opened with a prayer and praise service, Rev. R Kecter leading in prayer and Rev. S. Cunningbam reading a portion of the scriptures. The church was now filled to overflowing, extra seats having to he provided in the aisles. The Presideot, A. Bo:zmer, Eâ€"q, in the Chair. After devotional services ‘ed by Rev. W. Bean, of Wellesley, Rev. 1t.

Boomer and Tanner, the delegates appointed at the last meeting to visit the schools of the Association, were then called upon for their report, and both were p‘eased to state that they bad found the several schools in a fairly healtbhy and vigorous coundition, and everything working harmoniously. Messrs. E G. Wian and Moses Strome were appointed the visiting delegates for the ensuing year. 4& The convention was acncunced to be held a week previous‘y, but owing to the severs storm prevailing had to be postponed, that being the third postâ€" ponement in three years from an : xactâ€" ly similar cause ; and on each pospored occasion the weather ard roads were most favorable ond the autendance large. On this occasion, as promised by your Linwood correspondent the weather and roads were most favorable and the attendance possibly larger than on any previous occasion.

The oil being predigested, We all belong to a great volunteer irmy. _ No man has compelled us to be Sabbath school workers, we have beâ€" come such of own accord. We aim at working in the Sabbath school for love‘s sake. Oar hope and prayer is that the love of Christ constrains us, and that we are willing workers in the day of his power. The longer we continue to be Sabbath school teachers, the more the work clings to our hsarts. Continâ€" ual practice in the work no doubt tends to an increase of skill. I think where the work is done by earnest, willing workers there cannot be the shadow of a doubt that thera is a steady increase of skill. I believe that that increase is as sure «s the int=rpretation of Nebâ€" ushadnezzir‘s dream. _ And we aro all of the same mind and desire to attain to higher and bigher efficiency from year to year, in an honorable efforbt to feed the lambs of the Lord‘s flock. That is no doubt the main reason why we are mot here toâ€"day. We bave pleasure, of course, in meeting one another in kindly communion, but the motive that especially brings us, and others like us, together in convention, here or elseâ€" where, from time to time, is the desire that we may acquire improved methods and means for carrying on the good work of the Sabbath School. We are not all of the same cast of mind, nor of the same type of character. We differ from one another perhaps in education as in natural ability. And our ways of working with our young friends may be as various as are our persons or our gifts. But our earnestness, with God‘s blessing, wins our success. And for one man, who has bsen successful, to tell another of his success and the way it was won, is to contribute so much to. that other‘s power to win the sames, or even greater suceess. _ At the same time, we aro all brethren and sisters of the Lord Jesus Christ. _ We live in the same hops of the glory of God, and of the same everlasting bliss in our Father‘s house. _ Arcd it is a good and a pleasant thing for the brethren of Jesus, the children of the Heavenly King, to meet one another in fraternal kindliness as we do to day, and to stimâ€" ulate one another in zeal for God and for the success of His Kingdom in the world. I know that all power was given unâ€" to our Lord Jesus CObrist. I know that his power has come down to men through his Holy Spirit. I know that that power was poured out when Christ‘s disciples were met in convention in the upper room in the day of Penteâ€" cost. And I pray that as this company of Jesua‘ followers are met in convenâ€" Dear Friends and Fellowâ€"workere.â€" The course of time has brought us together once more in our Aunual Sabbath School Convention. â€" Most of us have met in a similar way time and igain in the past,.

It adds to the interest of the occasion to Jook upon the faces of so many friends, with whom we have bad pleasant mcetings and have taken profitable counsel. Then, after the usual votes of thanks and the singing of "God be with you till we mceet agair," and the benedicâ€" tion by Rev. J. W. Cameroa, the Conâ€" vention rdjourned to meet cext yoar at Harkesvilie at a tims to bo fixed by the executive. The collections amounted to $9.41, and as this wou‘d much more than cover the expenses of the Convention, a resolution was adopted, dividing the surplus between the County and Proâ€" vincial Associations. ‘The musical part of the Convention uader the direction of Mr. G. Birbour and Miss Boyd was well and efficiently performed and added materially to the interest of the occasion. A very exâ€" cellent address of welcome was read at the afternoon session by Viceâ€"President Hastings. To the abssase of Rev. Mr.Atkinson the "Qzestion Drawer." was atterded very satisfactorily by Mr. Cameron. The Rov. J. W.

Tbe Rev.R Keefer, Mr. Gso Fraser, Mr. A. Boomer and others took part in the discussion of the several topics of tho day is they were introduced. ADDRESS OF WELCOME with heart and A Boorur, Secretary. Independence makes no woman less loving. The most helpful women are fondest and truest ; and as for man, never trust him in any capacity if he bas not within him the true spirit of independence, without which, neither strength nor swesetness may be hoped for. In the battle of life there is but one way to succeedâ€"fight it out for yourâ€" self. Give the helping hand when you may. Take it, if in some sore strait ib is offered freely, but never wait for ft Be independent so far as it is possible for one to be, if you would bhonor yourâ€" self, or be honored by others, or be bappy. Men and medicines are jud ged by w hat the do. The great cures by Hood‘s Sarsaparillagive it a good name everywhe e. This was not bad, except in comparâ€" ison with the superb stratagem ascribâ€" ed to Gerritt Smith in such emergencies â€"as that he used to say in his family prayer efter breakfast: If your means places you beyond such need, be independent in another way. Loarn how to help yourself and take care of yourself as much as posâ€" sible. Rather be one who does things for others than one who must have things done for you. The really successful men are those who defy cireumstances ; those who could earn a living in any quarter of the globe in which they were dropped down ; who can roll up their sleeves and set to work at almost anything that offers, and who can even sew on their own buttons and make themselves a cup of coffee when deprived of the help of womankind. The successful women are those who aro not annihilated when the servant girl goes of in a huff, and who, if plunged into the depths of poverty, could fight their way out of it without the belp of any man. William Dean Howell‘s father, who emigrated to Ohio half a century and more ago, used this formula to get rid of an intrusive visitor who bad worn out his welcome. He would be called out on some business and would say to the guest: Perfect independence ensures success in the world. People who are always waiting for help may wait & long time, as a general thing. _A little assistance, a little recommendation, is not to be had for the asking, but there is always something one can do for himself. Do it, whatever it is, and do it with a will ! One thing leads to another. If you are a girl, don‘s sit still and hope that some rich man will marry you, while your old father toils for your daily bread. Don‘t be afraid to work. Good, bonest pluck and sensible indeâ€" pendenca are a dower in themselves, and there are sensible men who krow it. "I euppose you will not be here when I ~retern so I_ wish you â€" gocd:â€" bye."
