292 THE COMPREHENSIVE CHURCH. and special, has all grown up within about twenty years. The original monthly concert, on the subject of general missions, has long since attained to a very sacred estimation; and so in its train have several others of the same class, though falling somewhat behind, as regards the interest felt in them. There are several annual concerts, to which very great importance is attached, as the first Monday in the year, for the world; a day in February for colleges; another for the cause of temperance; and some others, the specific design of which I am not possessed of. Of course I do not refer to these appointments to object to them. Many of them I have long sympathized with, and observed religiously for the design of their institution. My only object is to bring them up in array before those who are supposed to object to the comparative paucity (or frequency) of stated religious observances, or holy days, which are to be found in the religious calendar of the Episcopal Church, that it may be seen which party in fact has the most, the complainants or the accused. THE END.

The original monthly concert, on the subject of general missions, has long since attained to a very sacred estimation; and so in its train have several others of the same class, though falling somewhat behind, as regards the interest felt in them. There are several annual concerts, to which very great importance is attached, as the first Monday in the year, for the world; a day in February for colleges; another for the cause of temperance; and some others, the specific design of which I am not possessed of. Of course I do not refer to these appointments to object to them. Many of them I have long sympathized with, and observed religiously for the design of their institution. My only object is to bring them up in array before those who are supposed to object to the comparative paucity (or frequency) of stated religious observances, or holy days, which are to be found in the religious calendar of the Episcopal Church, that it may be seen which party in fact has the most, the complainants or the accused.
