rents met, a little way out in the channel, off the Corriegills 

 shore; and along a strip of sky, stretching from north to 

 south, the fleecy cumuli of the S.W. current were arrested by 

 the current from the east, and resolved into a broad band of 

 cirri. By four o'clock in the afternoon the upper current had 

 descended to the surface ; and a strong breeze from the west, 

 preceded by a whirlwind, immediately sprang up. Towards 

 evening this gradually subsided into a gentle air. The day 

 was one of those delightful Sabbaths to be enjoyed only in 

 the rural districts of Scotland or the North of Ireland, The 

 Free Church congregation of Brodick was observing the 

 communion services; and a vast concourse of pious and most 

 attentive worshippers was assembled from all parts of the 

 island ; one minister officiated in English in the church, 

 while another conducted the service in Gaelic from a tent iu 

 the open field. Apart altogether from the solemn feelings 

 awakened by the simple and touching service, the mere 

 picturesque adjuncts of these scenes at Brodick will never 

 fade from the memory of any one who has witnessed them.
