Has there been | >«*nre and plenty T Have there been Individual blessings? Has life and health been continued ? Ha* the ImhIy been fed and clothed ? Is th© "Giver o( everv eood and |»erfert gift" worthy to bo rrinemhercd ? Is gratitude due to thai? Men aoknowlodce minor favors received from the hands of their fellow me n and express thanks ; Is the Holy One thai fnhabiicth Ktrrnlty less worthy? It cannot be experlod that swine wilt irlve thanks to thoir k©r|x*rs, who daily give them food, but of men who have souls and reasonIn^ powers It is Just to aspect lu should it be judged from the size of congregation* on Thanksgiving day* the conclusion • would necessarily I* tbni there are very many swinish people who lire on the bountv of the Lord, and never say so much a* Tit amkh. It would not seem unjust to conclude that men and women In health, and having an opportunity, who will not come out to u Than Itsgiving service onco a year are NOT very much obliged. Layman.

The lecturer of the evoning. Prof. H. W. Hand, departed from the usual formal style of such exercises, and told u* "Something o! Things at Iforao and Abroad in New Fields,'* in his congenial ' | conversational way. lie exhibited many interesting curiosities collected in his tiiivola ; one of which was a fragment of (he "sea-face" of Fort Sumpter ' in '64. lie gave mi interesting account of a night boat-attack made on tho Fort and described the manner in which Union prisoners were treated.

They bafflo all at tempts of missionaries to make them comprehend the truths of Christianity. He produced the long tail feathers of the "tropic bird" which wero obtained by nlaeing a forked stick over the bird whuo setting on its nest and holding it there while the fsathers were pulled out. ^ Ho also had a piece of Fecjeean , fish-fine, made from tho hair of their females ; rings made of nuts and polish ed by rubbing on the nose ; specimens i 1 of "cowry," or money ; the 44tapa" club 4 which they use in making paper from the inner bark of the mulberry tree. 1 Oltly the royal family are permitted to J wema "(apa" of a riNK color.

y.oe#Of tv Si.. . i article of food is "poi, from a root growing under water. It is boiled by putting heated *t<me* in it, is afterwards pounded and fermented, and then conveyed to tho mouth by simply dipping the finger in it. The speaker defended this mode of eating by saving that each person ate all that his own finger touched. He had the satisfaction of eating no<; with them and innocently pronounced it mutton. These natives eat raw fish and are not slow to remind us that w© eat raw oyster*. The whole lecture was full of interest.
