The magistrate said that in order to stay any further results from the existence of this same giudgo he should require the prisoner to find two good securities for his future conduct, and should ne him ve dollars and costs for the present assault.

Rev. E. F. Bland, Presi- dent, conducted the opening exercises, and ably presided over the meeting. The rst item on the programme was a reading from Milton, "Satan;-i Address to the Sun," very eifectivelg given by Rev. Clias. E. Mclntyi-e, an old and useful mem- ber of the association. Mr J. E. Clarke then read, for the author, an anonymous paper on Moral Heroistn Ihis paper, which was a brief one, dealt with its subject historically, citing many instances of the heroic endurance of suffering and death for the truth by the martyrs of early Christian times, and commended the spiritof those nob_le examples to modern iniita tiou. A very beautiful sacred song, entitled Beyond the Sunset, was sung at this stage by Mr R. Tandy, in good voice and with his usual good taste and expression. R. Crawford, B.A_y followed with a most entertaining reading on A Bachelor's Reverie," which he prefaced witha short paper on the creative power of the imagi- nation. Mr Crawford, having depicted the doubt and decision, the stages of experience pro` paratory to a change of the single state, excus- ed himself from completing the reading owing to its length, and was only released by the au- dience on the condition of his giving the re` maiuder at a future meeting. A recitation, The Gladiator," was then wallreudered hy Dr. Jar- vis. After a duett by Messrs Tandy, Dr. Lavell gubtnltted the paper of the eveuing-a semi pro feesional lecture on "The inuence of the mind upon disease." This theme, in the Doctor . hands, became not only instructive but exceed- ingly interesting as well. The wonderful in- uence of mental operations upon physical begllhild the length of human life was first ex- plained,and then illustrated by instances of the power of the will to resist disease and ot the imagination to induce it. Many striking cases were cited, both from medical records and from the lectnrer s own experience, ,in which cents- gion and potent physical causes had failed_te produce disease, which, however, had been directly caused by powerful mental delusions and speedily followed by fatal consequences From the whole subject the conclusion was de- duced that anxiety, anger, and all such forms Of mental excitement were the undermining ena- mies of the happiness of health, while nothing could he more conducive to its preservation and to lengthened life, than the cultivation of a calm and even iaentaltempcrament. The lec- tnre contained much valuable information, well condensed and attractively presented, and was heartily appreciated by all present. The meet- ing was then dismissed in the usual way. h utillcry as 1!

The net revenue of this rcnd for the year 1869 was $50,000 on a capital of $180,000; and Mr D'Al:g: y, a New York engineer, in commenting upon this result, says: "The economy of the construction and equipment of s narrow-gauge road, two feet six inches. is immense when compared with the cost of 3 road four lett eight and a half inches. For a single track it is 50 per cent over an or- dinary at country, but in the mountainous or mining districts the proportion increases to 75 per c:nt and more. In fact, a narrow-gauge road can be established, and will prove a paying concern. in countries so rounzh that no nltemnt luau (nu uc caluunauru, uuu Wlll prove B paying concern, rough no attempt would ever be made to construct a. road of the usual gauge.
