The Dromore choir in their report of Swinton Park Soiree, where they furnished music ot a high character, speak approvingly of the good time ex. perieneed, apart from the wheezing of the organ owing to dampness, and the dimness of the light provided, owing it is said to bad American oil, or what is more likely the vitiated al- mosphere of the small building, erowd.. ed as it was wlth a 860.00 audience.

The memory of Mrs Henry is ofamost wonderful qualitv being able to quote many of the psalms and paraphrases at great length. _ . On a recent occasion while losing her way home on a. dark night from her daughters, the words ofahymn she had learned in her younger days, ran eontinaoasly through her mind and kept repeating while she strove to thud her way. The words are singu- larly appropriate to the occurrence. Following is the poem, as recited by her to us at the age of 76 : Among the derpest shades of night can there be one that sees my way ? Yes, God is like a. shining light, That turns the darkness .uto day. Wheu every eye around me sleeps, May inot sin without control? No, for a constant watch he keeps On every thought of every soul. It 1 could mm some cave unknown. Where human feet have never trod ; Yet there I could not be alone, On every side there would be God. He smiles in Heaven, he frowns in hell, lie fills the earth, the air. the sea, I must within his presence dwell, I cannot it om his auger nee. He bids me tie, he tells me where, To Jesus Chrtst he bids me fly, And while 1 seek for pardon there, There‘s only mercy in his eye.

The managers so far are meeting With marked success. in real- izing the promised increased amounts incident to the change, in the mean- time the building ot the new msnse has been delayed for a. short while, pending farther developments. Our relations with the sister congregation ot Knox have always been pleasant. and we hope the wisdom of the Pres- bytery will find a solution of the prob- lem of service tor them, so as not to check the laudable ambition of the _ growing Amos church tobesustaining.
