It was a happy thought that prompted this assembly ; and the large number who, in spite of the rain, attended the service, af- forded the most gratifying evidence of the general interest felt by Her Majesty's subjects in Canada, in the hai)piness of Her Majesty's house-hold at Home. I'y noon every seat in the body of tlie large church was filled, and even the galleries were fully occupied. The (•ttiee-bearers and members of the St. Andrew's and (Caledonian Societies attended, in terms of advertisements from the respective Presi- dents of these bodies. The Rev. Dr. Jenkins, of St. Paul's Church, presided on the occasion, and below him, facing the congregation, were the Pwevds. Gavin Lang, St. Andrew's Church ; llobt. Campbell, St. Gabriel's Church ; W. JI.

Unite us In the sacred love Of knowledge, truth, aii Thy Holy Spirit's teaching, that the service which we now ren- der may be a spiritual service, and therefore Hcceptttble in Thy sight. Not that we are worthv, O Lord, to present unto tlico any Facrifice, for we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. If we say that we liave no sin, wc deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us; but if we confess our sins, TIiou artfaitliful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unright- eousness. Most Jlereiful Father, through Him upon whom Thou hast laid the injquity of us all, who was wounded for our trans- gressions, and bruised for our iniquitien, and liy whose stripes wo are healed, we beseech Thee, liide thy fac'c from our sins, and blot out all our iniquities. (;reate in us a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within us, for a broken and contrite heart, God, thou wilt not despise. We lift our hearts in thanksgiving to Thee, Lord God, nutlioi of every good and perfect gift, for all thy goodness and loving Idnducss to us and to all men. We thank Thee for the bounties of Thy Providence, so richly bestowed upon \u ; for the Christian privileges tliat have attended us, from our childhood until now ; for the gift of Thy Holy Word, which Thou hast given to be a light unto our feet, and a lamp unto our path ; for the unspeakable gift of Thy Son, whom Thou didst send into the world to be our Saviour ; and for the ordinances of the Christian Church, and the grace which through them is imparted to those who be- lieve. Wo thank Tlieo also for llie i>i ivi- leges, civil and religious, which we enjoy under the British Constitution ; and we pray for grace to use them for the gloiy of Thy great Name, and faitlifiilly to transmit th' \ to the generations following. O Thou by whom Kings riign, and Piinccs decree judgment, we beseech Thee of Thy great m"r(y to bless our rightful and beloved Sovereign Queen VicToniA. We tlwnk Thee who hast abundantly prospered her reign, and hast spared her for many years to be the Mother of her people. Continue to her Tliy favour and strength, surround her throne with wise and faithful counsellors, sjiare Thou her life, and bless her with health, that she may long rule over loyal subjects ; and grant that having faithfully accomplished Thy will on earth, she may at length receive the crown of glory that fadeth not away. We beseech Thee, O Lord, to blcs^also with Thy favourALiiKUTEi)WAr.D, Prince of Walec, the Princess of Wales, and all the members of the Royal House. Grant to them Thy help, that by a truly Christian life, they may adorn the high stite and dignity to which Tliy Providence hath raised them. Ever more, Lord, guide them with Thy counsel, ujdiold them with Thy might, and cheer them with Thy love. And now, Lord our Father, Author of all happiness, we seek Thy special blessing upon the Princess Louisa and the Marquis of Lome, who have been this day joined to- gctlicr ill maniage, nccoidiiig to Tliy Holy Ordinance. EariiCHtly, nnd in the nume of (Jhriat, we entreat Thee whoju favour is tlic liappincBK of every condition, and whoso love Kwcetcncth every relation, to be the portion of these Thy servants, nnd to own nnd nccept them in Jesus their Saviour and Lord. As Tliou hast brought them together liy Tliy rrovidcnce, wo pray Thee fanctlfy them by Thy Holy ISpi;:t. tiivethem a frame of heart suitable to their new estate, and enrich them with all graces whereby, us becometh Christians, they may perform the duties, enjoy the comforts, un- dergo the cares, and resist the temptations which pcrtiiin to the marriage relation. O (iod, be morciftd to them, and bless them, and cause thy face to shine npon them, from this day forth, nnd even for evermore. Grant also, we pray thee, O God, that this Union, so auspiciouslj' formed, may strengthen and make lasting the aft'ection and regard which subsist between Her Majesty's family nnd the people of this realm; and may there never -be wanting a member of the Roynl House to sit xipon the British Throne. O Lord, our God, who ordercst the bounds of nations, nnd controllest their destinies, we beseech Thee to vouclisafo Thy help and guidance to Thy servant the Governor-Gen- eral of this Dominion, and to all that arc in authority under Iiim in the several Provinces. Jilesstho Parliament of Canada at this time assemble!!, nu't grant that all that is doe, whether by the Legislative or tlio Kxe- cutive authovities, may tend to the Imppini.'ss nnd prosperity of this land, and above all to that national righteousness which alone e.xniteth a people. We pray at this tinje, nNo, Lord, for the whole estate of Christ's Church. BIcsh and make joyful her people, and clothe with righteousness her ministers, that so the Word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified. Let the people praise Thee, O Goo ; let all tlie people praise Thee. Then shall the eartli yield her increase, and God, even our own God sliall bless us ; God shall bless us ; and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him. These blessings and all othcis, needed for the Church, for the Itcalm, and for tlu? world, we humbly seek in and throtigh our Saviour and Intercessor Jesus Christ, to whom, with Thee and with the Holy Ghost, be ascribed all glory, and might, and ma- jesty, and dominion, and power, world with- out end. — Amkn. The Choir then sang the National Anthem, and the benediction having been pronounced by the Ilev. C. A. Doudict, the large congre- gation separated, the service, though lastin:; altogether little more than half an hour, having been nn exceedingly solemn and profitable one. Many prominent clergymen of Montreal were in the congregation, as well as a large number of leading citi/cona of all cliurches. MEETING IN ST. ANDREW'S HOME. A met till,.; of tlie oftiec-bean rs and mcm- birs ol' the SI. Andrew's and Caledonian Socie- ties, for the purpose of passing resolutions of congratulation relative to the marriage of Her Royal Highness the Princess Louisa with the Marquis of Lome, was held in the St. An- drew's Home, at eight o'clock p.m., when tlie room was completely filled. On tlie motion of Mr. J. C. Becket, past J'resident. Mr. Alexander McGibbon, 1st Vice-President of St, Andrew's Society, was called to the chair, nnd Mr. James Kiddell, Secretary of that Society, officiated as Secre- tary to the meeting. A letter of apology was read from the Rev. II. Campbell, of St. Gabriel's Church, regret- ling that a previous engagement prevented lii< being present on the interesting occasion. The CiiAiiiMA\ exiileiiad (bat the ineeiir.g was called by the olHcers of the St. Andrews and Caledonian Societies to express tlieii satisfaction at the union of the Marquis of Lome with the Princess Louisa. He had in his hand several resolutions which had been jircpared, and would be moved and seconded by speakers who would, no doubt, do amjile justice to the subjects of the resolutions. Ho called upon the Rev. Dr. Taylor, of Erskin.! Church, to move the first resolution. Rev. Dr. Tavi.or said lie had the honor to move the following resolution : Tlio ofllcc-honrers end members of llic SI. .\n- drew's Society, ami or the Caletlonlun Soeiety of Montreal, now a.ssrm'oled, In common Willi nil their loyal fd'ow-suliioots of otlior nationalities la all parts of the world, take ploasuiv in em- bracing every opporteolty to evince tlielr loyally - ) iiiicl iliiuriil iiil(ii-v> (Mills wlilcli por- soiiivlly coiiffni II Sloimicli ko Justly rcvprwl anil Ih'IovoiI iiM Is liucoii Vlotorlii.

He was Rlod the two Societies had called tlie meeting to express their sentiments at the ftuspicious event which had taken place that day. That day Her Majesty had ,'iven (lie hand of one of her dauKhters in marriage to ft noble scion ot a noble house. Siicli an event had not occurred in English history for centurieH. He thought it was quite con- sistent witli propriety for the societies to meet to express their loyal sentiments. If anyone at a meeting of a society gave eNpression to disloyal sentiments, and if such society did not repudiate those disloyal scnti- mcuts, then the society would he as ilisloj'ttl ns the utterances. Tlicy had all, as Kcotchmen, regarded the course of (^ueen Victoria with thanlis to Almighty (iod, and witli feelings of ardent attach- ment to her person. Her act in giving the hand of her royal daughter to a noble Scotchman broke through an old precedent, but it showed the wi.sdom of the Queen, and her superiority t3 Ro}-al highness. The speaker referred to the military and ecclesi- astical history of the Argyll family. They had scattered terror among their enemies and .vulTorcd martyrdom for Christianity.
