W. Adair, in a few remarks that were plain, pointed and practical, followed by Revs. Pomeroy, Williams and Wilson. On the question of Sunday School music, Rev. Stuart opened the discussion, taking exceptions to much of the Sunday School music of the present time, and In well timed remarks showed errors practiced very generally.

He was followed by Revs. Pomeroy, Wilson and Adair. Dr. Wilson explained his method of preparing a Sunday School lesson, which elicited a desultory discussion, in which Messrs. Pomeroy, Clammer, fcteuart and Wright participated, the Doctor answering all objections to his manner of proceeding in the premises.

The question drawer was opened and Dr. Wilson appointed to answer the questions as read by the Secretary.

Clammer spoke on the relation of the Sunday School to the family," in a manner that carried with It the importance of the family more closely attending to the Interests of the Sunday School everywhere.

In the evening there was a general gathering of the Sunday School and congregation, the exercises being of great in' terest, and most attentively listened to. lies. Mr. Pomeroy gave a black-board sermon, which was one of great instruction to the little folks, not excepting the older ones. There were other exercises of equal interest and importance during the evening, and the institute closed after three profitable sessions.

That the labors of the institute will be productive of good there can be no doubt. The Sunday: Scoool interest is one that needs no commendation, and one of the good influences that cannot be over estimated. Cttr Council Adjourned Session."
