Archdeacon Thorpe, who took for his text the words " Watch and Pray." From those words the Ven. Archdeacon preached a very appropriate sermon, which was listened to with great attention by tho3e on board. After service the Jack Tars

showed the Volunteers round fcha ship, and explained the working of the different gons to them.
