THURSDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1870.

Charley and I have been helping Tisdale thresh this foreno afternoon. This forenoon we draw out manure. The weatehr is exceedingly cold now, but promises to be more moderate soon. "Tis done! Thou dost this moment save. With full salvation bless." But this salvation is only for the moment. We are constantly dipendependent upon this blood and are constantly cleansed. As we live by breathing, so the Christian lives by believing. Our breath is the bond that unites soul and body; and faith is the bond that unties our soul to Christ.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1870.

To day Charley has been helping Tisdale thresh with the team. I have been attending our school examination to day. Our Superintendant was present with us. This afternoon we settled up with our teacher. The examination to day passed off very nicely. Nora Matthews came home last night from Hamilton. She is improved a good deal by her by being away. Hope that she may have the privelege of graduating at our College.
