nt as well as cheerful appearance to the com. It had been newly painted and whitened, and decorations ofan exceedingly tasteful des- cription had been executed by Mr. Ducbemin an his daughters,——at the head was a group of tinge of the Allied Nations arranged in sym- metrical array, while the lofty ceiling was adorned with cable festoons of evergreen, having in ciicli centre a magniﬁcent round 0 the same material, interspersed with artiﬁcial ﬂowers. 'l‘hcse, with some banners, on which appropriate sacred iuottos were inscribed, made the coup d‘aeil on entrance, both beautiful and imposing. At the appointed hour, visitors be- an to pour in, auiong whom might be noticed lie Excellency the Lieutenant Governor, Mrs. Daly, (the Patroness of the Bazaar.) and the Misses Daly Soon, a lively scene commenced. ——across the a per section of the Hall, was laid out the Cake "able, and, although much had been expected, the reality exceeded expectation, for so splendid a display of Alpine dainties of the season has never been seen before in this Cit . Here the most enthusiastic lover of Cake an Colfse could spend his shillings in a man- ner not only to please his prevailing taste, but likewise, to give him the consoling assurance, that the more he purchased, the more he was serving the cause of humanity and benevolence. Nor, during the length ofa well-sustained day, were the exertions of eaters, drinkers, pourcrs or cutters at an time interrupted or relaxed. Indeed, when t e hundreds are remembered who tloelied to that Table, we can recall to mind the elforts of the Cotfee pourers and Cake cut- ters with no feelings, but those of admiration. Up and down the centre line of the Hall, were seats for those who wished to rest ﬁiemselves. and at each side, for the whole extent of the walls, and under the galler , were ranged the Tables of Fancy and useful orlr, which,formed the great Testimonial of Female Industry, and the great attraction of those who were into]- lectually, mechanically, or fancifully disposed, Works ofart, from an Oil Painting to a wiper, were crowded together on the loaded Ta les, and words of art were not less numer- ous to induce the leased, yet alarmed specta- tors, to purchase t e varied wares. Consider- ing the short notice at which this Bazaar was ot up, the number of articles exhibited was almost be 'ond belief, and was eminently cre- ditable both to the hands and hearts of our fair towns-women. and possibly, the thought might have suggested itself,—had there been an op- portunity for thought, where the eyes an cars were placed in such unremitted requisition- tliat ifall belonging to the liumbler walks of life in this City would but work as faithfully for tlicinselvcs or others as the Ladies have wrought for tlieui, there would not be so many seeking assistance from the charitable. As the evening advanced, it became percep-

YOUNG su‘.iv’s CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. Mr. Editor ;

It is higlily,gratifying to learn that the Insti- tution bearing the above den’ nation, though but ofcoiiqliaratively recent origin, has rapidly. spread. nu has alrcad etfected a vast amount of good in Great Britain and on the European Continent, and that in the neighboring Provin- ces also, it has been or nized with the prospect of gi-_cat usefulness. ﬁn it not then worthy of enquiry, whether a society on a similar basis- Eyangelical and yet anti-sectarian in its prin- ciples——aimin at the promotion of Biblical knowledge and general intelligence amen our young men, might not be formed in Char one.‘ town, with the probability of usefulness amen ' that interestin rtion of the community. It will readily be admitted, that there is no class of persons to whom greater interest attaches than to these; or for whose improvement-— intellectual and3inorul—more earnest etI'ort is demanded. Upon the character our young men are new forming, great consequences depend, both ale regards t emselves, and society in nera .

Under these convictions it is submitted, whether the present period would not be a sea- sonable one for the formation of such an Asso- ciation in this City, and whether it would not be advisable for a Meeting of all persons favor- able to such a movement to be called at an early "day.
