At the morning service an earnest appeal was made to the unsaved to change their way of living. In the afternoon, in the academy of music, upwards of 1000 men assembled to hear his parting discourse to young men. His desire was not to call them for any particular creed or church, but to unite in the one great cause. At the evening service a large audience again assembled to hear the reverend gentleman as a congregation the last time. In spite ot furious rain, which fell on that eveninxr, the church was filled to its utmost.

Very few people have any idea of the amount of forest produce taken out every win- ter in the township of Harvey, just below Bobcaygeon on Pigeon lake. Our reporter gleaned a few items that may be of interest in that direction the other day and were as follows:â€"That the Sadler, Dundas Flav- elle milling Co. had cut and piled on Pigeon lake about four hundred cords of wood and ten thousand pieces of logs. . ...F. Crandell had nearly one thousand cords of wood and over ten thousand pieces of logs. . . ..John Carew has cut about two hundred cords of wood and three thousand logs. . . .Thomas Caesar for R. D.

Johnston gave the audience an interesting and instructive address. After the address the; following resolution was unanimously earned. Moved by C. K. Calhoun, seconded by Rev. Mr. Totten, on the occasion of the departure of the Rev. Robert Johnston. the Endeavorers of the town of Lindsay desire to place on record the high esteem in which they hold him. Mr. Johnston’s untiring efforts in all Christ’s work are known to few better than to the young people of Lindsay and the County of Victoria, and his zeal, his love, his self-sacrificing labors, his enthusiasm have been an inspiration to many Endeavorers during the past six years. Not only in his own society, but in the wide fields of the local and county unions, will Mr. Johnston be missed, and we know that his place will be hard to fill. We extend to him at this time our heartiest good-will and pray that the richest blessings may be showered upon him in abundance in his new field of labor. Examination of Separate School.
