The attend- J considering state of the roads, large and the interest at the sessions mark it as one of the tsaccesifal meetings the associa- iB has had, pr. JlcClellacd, of Toronto, was ;eut from the opening to the clos- se.=;sion, and by his jiresence and tnres, not only interested and stim- jted 1.1)6 teachers, but gave them iBje of Ins own enthusiasm for the ^fessicn and which has raised him the position he now holds of being to the late Dr. Ryerson, the jter builder of that system of na- lual edu.;ation ot which we as Can- liians are justly proud. Several ex- illent papers were read and discussed tb keenness and acumen which owed that the teachers had not met lerely for a social ^aitheriug but to and to gather for themselves all e linowled^'e and experience of the itsi six mouths aud to profit as much 3 possible by the couycution. One of the most noticeable and {eresting features of this gathering IS ai) exLiibition of the Holt system teacluug music, by C. J. Sproule, Maxwell. He brought out a class f pupils with him rauging Irom 9 to 2 years and put them through a aries of exercises in reading music at ;glit and singing, both in unison aud' 3 parts, which elicited the surprise, ad admiration of all present. The iroficieucy of his class was astonishing d the remark of Miss Anderson, of Carbarn who was one of the appomt- d critics, fully aud wittily expressed k situation. Bhe said that either Sir. Sproule had a very wonderful Jiss 01 children, or that ho was a very onderful teacher, or had got hold of imost wonderful system, or which ras, perhaps, most nearly true, that is was a wonderful combination of ^vstem, teacher and pupils to produce •jcb results. The announcement that Dr. McClel- and was to lecture in the evening in :iie Town Hall brought out a large ludieuce, for the Dr. ranks here as iio best lecturer that has ever vieited Flesberton indeed such is the feeling if interest in any subject he has to ipeak pa thafp the sessions in the icbool house were crowded by visitors msious tfJibenefit by one of his talks teachers: ^^.^^he Town Hall was srowded long before the time annonnc- i for the lecture and many had to go '.way unable to get seats. The Flesh- rtou brass baud and popular glee ;lub were lu attendance and a large lass of pupils of the Fiesherton school ivho sang a greeting song and chorus. The glee club made the audience feel aappy and were enchored again and ig'iiu. M. Eichardson, Esq., who had been ippointed chairman, was invited to â- .he platform by Mr. Kamage, Presi- ient of the association. After a tew fell chosen remarks bv Mr. Bichard- son who always fills the position of chairman in a very happy manner, called upon Mr. Campbell, the popular Inspector for South Grey, who, in a i^ felicitous remarks, evidenced re* serve of resources and ability for the platform which wiU doubtless be iirought out some future day. The lecturer, Dr. McClelland, was greeted with a heartiness which show- ed that he is a favorite here. The subject of his lecture, "English liter- a itave aud its value in culture with "llustrations." For an hour and a lialf the Dr. held his. audience under the mighty spell of his eloquence. He designated the English language as iieing the most perfect vehicle for ex- pression of every shade of human thought and feeling and having pro- duced a literature the grandest, nobl- est and richest the world ever saw. ' His counsel to parents on the import- iace of procuring good literature tor their children and of guarding them trom the influences of impure and trashy books was timely and practical. The lecture sparkled with wit and Was enriched with gems from the best authors and will, no doubt, have made jin impression for good upon the hearts and lives of many that shall be lasting while life endures. The Dr. 'ook his seat amidst bursts of jtpplaase, after which Dr. Christoe, fa a few well fnosen words, moved a sincere vote of %nk3to|Dr. McClelland for his inspur- ing and instructive lecture, which was jconded by Rev. Thomas Watson, 'baptist minister, who clothed his tiiou^hts in very appropriate ^ords ^^ heartily endorsed the mover's eulogy of the address.

From the words found in Solomon's Song, chap, 4, verse 10, "My sister, my spouse," Rev. L. Perrin, B.

Mr. Perrin is quite a young man in the ministry, of more than ordinary ability, a olose reasouer, dealing practically with tbe SBbject in hands, a keen observant eye and easily gains the wrapt attention of his hear- ers and preaches with deep earnestness and a burning desire for the good of immortal souls. Rev. A. H. Drumm, of Toronto, will occupy the same pul- pit here for the first two Sabbaths in November.
