A plain spoken Western preacher delivered the following from his desk : —'l would announce to the congregation that, probably by mistake, there was left at this meeting-house, this morning, a small cotton umbrella, much damaged by time and wear, and exceedingly pale in colour. In place thereof was taken a very large silk umbrella, and of great beauty. Blunders of this sort, brethern and sisters, are getting a little too common.'
