fcional and religious enjoyment of the evening . The report of the Sunday-school was not quite so satisfactory as might have been wished . This depression in the state of its affairs , however , is to be attributed in great measure to circumstances over which human
vigilance and exertions could have no control . The Jubbergate chapel , in which the business of the school is conducted , is unfortunately situated in what is now in every respect the worst part of York ; and when the cholera broke out in the city last summer , it was deemed advisable
that the school should be closed until the pestilence had disappeared . Every precaution , however , was unavailing to prevent the mournful death of two of the teachers , by the ravages of this disease ; and it is generally a long time before an institution of this kind recovers itself
from a temporary suspension of its operations ; But there is every reason to hope and believe that better things are in store . The new street which is contemplated in York will either pass over the site of the chapel
that now serves as a school-room , or will come very near it , In either case , advantages to the school will result from the projected improvement . If the present building is removed , funds will be provided for the erection of a commodious school-room in
some more elig ible situation ; if not , the chapel will be laid open to the street , and a pleasant and airy approach to it may reasonably be expected . It may be suggested , however , to those who meritoriously
take an active part in the school , that organisation and punctuality can do a great deal in an undertaking of this land , even under the most unfavourable circumstances ; without these , the best advantages are of little avail .
That this unpretending institution may prosper and contribute its share towards the great and good work of human improvement , ought to be
the-wish-of all who are interested in the diffusion of human happiness . Manchester College , York j Feb . 5 , 18 : J 3 . ,

in the afternoon 400 , in the evening 600 . We held meetings at the close of the morning and afternoon worship , and our friends unanimously resolved to form themselves into a society . They will meet regularly on Sundays for worship , &c , and once in three weeks one of our ministers will visit them .
The following is a copy of a paper which has been circulated in the town and neighbourhood . 4 And Jesus answered him , The first of al ] the Commandments , is ,
Hear , O Israel , the Lord our God is one Lord ; and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart , and with all thy soql , and with all thy mind , and with all thy strength , Mark xii . 29 , 30 .
And this is life eternal to know thee , the only true God , and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent . — -John xvii . 3 . * But the hour cometh , and now is , when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in Spirit and in
