The State'Sabbath School Convention, which?- assembled here on the 4th inst., and which is still in session, is, ia"jnp3trespectskproYing.quite a success. 'The attendance of delegates is large, there being four hundred and fifty-two who have been enrolled by the Committee on Credentials. The meeting has been quite fortunate in securing the presence of a number of distinguished divines and experienced Sunday School laborers from abroad, who have added very much to its interest and value. Among these are the Revs. Drs. Hall and Denham, delegates from the Irish Presbyterian General Assembly; George II. Stewart, Xsqof-Philadelphia-President of the Amerjcan "..ISundayO School Union, who has achieved a more national jrepufairon as the Presi3ent of the United Stated ,Chnstia a itjommission; Sir. R. G. Pardee, of New York, who devotes all his time' "to the instruction of Sunday; School officers and teaching in the Institute a model system of conducting schools"; Jlev B. W. jChidlaw, Agent of the American Sunday School Union j Rev. J. L. JIcKee, of Louisville; Rev. Mr. Truax Agent tf the Illinois State Sunday School Missionary Society, and others from abroad, who participated in the proceedings. The attendance for, the Fir.-t District is not very large. The Walnut ansville, is represented by Rev. W. II. McCarer, Mr. D. G.Mark. and Cols. Drew and Foster. The First. Baptist School is represented by Rev. G. F. Pentecost; the Crescent City Mission School by Mr. J ohn F. Glover,and the Cumberland Presbyterian' School by Mr. , Taylor and lady. James A. McGill. Esq., of Newburgh, represents the Methodist Schools of that town. Gibson County is represented and one or two others, whose' names I did not get. . , Among the prominent delegates from Indiana, are lion. Will. Cumback, Of Greansburg; Hon. R. C. Gregory, of the Supreme Bench ; Col. John W. Ray, John L. Kefcham, Prof. Charles N.Todd Revs. Mes srs. Edson, Marshall and Lozier, with a large delegation from Indianapolis; Hon. Levi. C. Coffin, hcad'mg a numerous delegation from Wayne County, among whom are a number of eminent Quakers, who are actively engaged in the Sabbath School work; L. G. Matthews, Esq., of the Ledger, Walter Mann, Revs. Hill, Hovey and others, of New Albany; Major Mulkey, Prof. Dodds, Browning and a large delegation from Bloomington. Ihe exercises were opened on Tuesday night, the 4th, with an address by Rev. J. L. McKee, D. D., of Louisviile,Ky., by invitation of the last Convention, on " The best Methods of Teaching and Preaching to Children. Dr. McKee is well known as a successful worker among children, and his address convinced all who heard him that his reputation was deservedly earned. In the space of an hour he condensed more of practical thought and useful suggestions to ministers and teachers, in regard to the instruction of . the youag than . most of his audience had ever heard in one address before. I would be glad tb jyc;, an I outline jof ;the discourse, with the leading points presented which would be val-s tiableand - very suggestive to teach-' er?, rot, in order to condense a report of the-Convention in one letter, I must omit it. After the close of Mr. McKee's address, Rev. Dr. Hall, one of the delegates from the Irish Presbyterian AseniDiv. was iuiruuuucu. i snoKrt i n ;i J J i 1 introduced or about half an hpur, elieitiug tie j divided attention of the large audi- ! cice. Dr. Hall is a fine spc-eiinou of te hieraest type of the real Ivss.ii cen timan, and his address was a m::sterli effort, full of the eloquence for wich those of his national:t37 ora cecbrated. At the conclusion of his spech, one of our Evansvilie delega.s, in his "enthusiasm, said if l e he?d no mo'6,, of. the proceedings of theonveutiou, the privilege of hearing )r. Hall was a sufficient compenatia for hi? journey. And.such was., the feling of, all;' it was an opportunity 'are?y 'enjoyed by Indianiarr.-

J'.

His remarks were-mainly -devoted to the Sabbath School work in Ireland, and were a plain narrative of what was being accomplished there, but the simDlicitv and terseness of ..the language, the" manifest Christian earnestness and devotion" to it he cause, and the mnsie nf his rich Irish voice won the hearts 'of his' auditors, and riveted their attention.'- ? Dr. Hall was followed by George H. Stuart of Philadelphia, President of the American Sunday Schdol 'Union, who spoke briefly but with much interest, and satisfied the 'audience that he was as successful a popular speaker as he had been, a. merchant. Altogether, by the exercises of the evening. lasting tin nan , past, ten jo clock, the otate convention been ausniciouslv commenced. ! In the morning, the first half hour was devoted to devotional - exercises, which were conducted with 'spirit and promptness, none of the .participants occupying more man two minutes Colonel Johp W. Ray,'jbf3jidianapolis. the President of the last Conven tion, called. the1 .meeting to order, and introduced the business with, a -brief but very appropriate" speech, he-or ganization was promptly effected . by the election 'of Hon.- Will'Cumback. of Greensburgh, Acting Lieu tenant-Governor of the State, as Pres ident, Judge it. C. Gregory of . Lafayette, ondof the J udges of the Supreme Court of Indiana, as Vice President, a full list of Secretaries, and the ap pointment ot committees on pusipess, and on credential and organization. Colonel Cumback's address on takiug the chair was one of , his Jbe&t efforts; and when I say that the people of the First District, who have been stirred by his fervid eloquence, will know that it was" gqod. t tie was as much at home in presiding over a large convention of. Sunday Schoolteachers as in the Senate Chamber, and' to him the Convention was greatly indebted for its good order and dispatch of business. ;;':': . "Half of the morning was taken up in tne reacting or reports -irom tne committees of the last Convention, and in listening to the statistics of the Sabbath Schools of the State. Laporte County shows the most perfect organization, and the largest number of .Sabbath1 Schools,1 having forty-three: and Wavne Countv next id . order, . having JoTty-ono' 1 bis report developes, the great necessity there is for a more general and perfect county organization throughout the State. This is the first work 10. which the State Executive Committee and the earnest Sabbath School workers of Indiana should address themselves for the current year. : . 11 ; It being announced that ther Irish Delegation were to leave in the- aftenoon train, and a strong desire being manifested to hear from them again, by unanimous vote ; all business was suspended and, they were invited to address the Convention and. occupy the remainder of the morning session. It was an interesting and. valuable hour. , ( ' '. : i , ' , - -'- , . , In the afternoon the first two hours from two to four o'clock were occupied by Mr. R. G. Pardee, of New York, in his institute exercises, with instructions and ' illustrations on the black-board. " I will, not occupy 'this letter with any attempt to speak of his method, hoping to refer to that at length . at another time. Notwithstandingthe excessive" Crowd Jnthe Opera Hou$ewb4re:;the: Convention was held, and the warm weather, he held thecl6se attention of i theteachi ers, who felt that they were receiviug valuable instruction which'would be made available in their classes,, . At four o'clock the hall wa's'cleared by the delegates : and audience, and filled up with one thousand or fifteen hundred children, and an hour and a half was devoted to a most interesting I V. I o UlCUUUg. J 11C 111 U51L , UUder the training and conduct of Prof. J. E. Turnell, of Lafayette, was very fine. The sermon, by Rev. J. L. McKee, of Louisville, was truly, as it was designed to be, a Model Sermon to Children. Wednesday night was occupied by Rev. B. W. Chidlow, of the American Sunday School Union, Hon. Mr. Stearnes. of New York, Most Worthy Patriarch of the Sons of Temperance of North America, Rev. Mr. Truax, of the Illinois Sunday School Missionary Society, Rev. Joseph Browti of Terre Haute, who spoke on the method of organizing Couuty Associations, and Mr. R. G. Pardee, of New York, in continuance of his Institute exercise. ' The exercises of Thursday were quite interesting and instructive. The first half hour of each session was devoted to devotional exercises. The morning session two hours to "business, reports from Committees, the selection of the place of . holding the next Convention, consideration ' of motions, resolutions, &c. The last hour of the morning session was taken up by Mr. Pardee, of New York, who gave two more of -his Institute lessons. , - In the afternoon the first two hours were taken up in discussing plans for enlarging and improving Sunday cnoois in tne etate, experience in teaching, superintending schools, and Sunday School work generally. At 4 o'clock another childrens' meeting was held, which will probably cloe the exercises. The Convention has proven, in most respects, a profitallc meeting, as it has been, from the. openiua- t.i tho close, a most interesting oue. Some defects,' which were appareut at the present session, will , doubtless be corrected at the next meeting, when the Association will be better organized, and have the.iesciwisea reduMd -if more system anaf practical 'intme tions. A Constitution was adopted,' j
