    On Friday , the 4 th of January , about eighty of the scholars conriected with the above institution , took tea in the school-room . Parents , teachers , and friends , to the number

    of forty , also regaled themselves . The scholars recited , as had been the practice in former * years , a number of appropriate pieces , and , to the most deserving , small prizes of books were awarded .

    With thoughts and deeds like these , did the Unitarians of Swinton welcome the new year . For the small charge-of about three ^ peneei on . the average , to ' each individual , a comfortable refreshment was provided . The old were exhilarated

    at witnessing the buoyant spirit of youth , and the young could not but feel more love and respect towards those who seemed to take so lively an interest iri their present and everlasting welfare , "VWien the crowded assembly broke up , every one seemed to feel satisfaction , and to retire with increase of faith , hope , and charity .
