This concluding the actual business before the niceting, the Rev. F. T. Johnson said he wished to propose vo of thanks to all who had in any way bee connected with the work and affairs of the Cathedral, for their services and the assistance they had at all times been ready to give. The accounts, he said, might, taken as a whole, be considered Katinfactory, And he referred to the extra ex penses to be provided for in the coming year, o which Mr. Whittal had referred. As regards the slight falling off in the ordinary collec. tions, that was due to the departure from the Colony of several very regular and generous subscribers in the Cathedral funds, as well as probably to the present high rate of exchange, which no doubt had its effect on the accounts to be offered, in view of the enhanced value of the dollar, The reverend speaker then i feeling terms referred to the lamented deaths of the late organist of the athedral, **6. ‚A.
