ENTlLlTAlsallerr.—We are pleased to inform our
temperance and other readers that this Band of Hop,
appears to be in a more satisfactory and progreeeivr
condition, the committee being more acquainted with
the general working of similsr societies. On Monday
evening the committee provided a tee for the juvenile,
.S.JU in the Schoolroom, to which the parents and
rtends connected with the Wesleyan congregation
were invited. Only • few responded. 'hewing plainly
the amount of interest taken by them in this per.
ticular branch of the society. Amongst those present
we noticed the circuit minister, Revs. T. Easing, an I
S. J. Little; Mrs. Symonds, Stone, and Misses K.
:iansom Kidouta ; .tieurs Badger, Garrett,
&mom, Thompson, he The after part u.
he evening was occupied with a pleasing and instruc '
. aye magic lantern display, under the management o:
Mr. U. Moore. The Rime. T. Rising described tb..
various views as they were displayed. The openAn
-cane was the well-known verses, "Jesus shall reign.
sc.," which was heartily sung by the juvenik.
,udiench The scenes presented were taken from th,
•• Overland route to India," supplemented with severe.
~tunuruus and other slides, which highly gratified to
.astes, and met with the frequent approval of NI,
amembly. The meeting concluded about 8.30, th.•
itev. T. Rising pronouncing the Benediction.

THE OLD PEOPLES SUPPER.
To Me
81r,—Will you kindly give toe .pace In your columns
to speak • woad to the charitable friends of the town
and neighbourhood of Dorchester 1 As ono interested
la the welfare of all dames, I wish to stores. my
heartfelt gratitude, and I am sure all the oil people
will join Me in thanking the kind donors who con-
tributed towards the old people'e supper, which was
no much enjoyed, sod for sending out food the next
day to 53 of the aged nick. We regret we are not able
t send all the sick • little help who are not old
enough I, have their names dose, NI we well know
there we many deserving cases who are not entitled
to the benefit yet. We have been compelled to draw
the line from 60 and upwards, but we should feel
exceedingly thankful if many more contribut we would
help nut year. if God sparse us, to help all the sick
poor and invalids In the town. It is turprising how
many there are who are nut able to labour, although
our town is • healthy one. There are several onus of
p,verty which might have been averted but for the
improvident habits of the people th mselves. and two
cues that have been brought to say notice divulge the
starlit of the destitution di a west extent, besides
whet ithen people have witness° I ae well all myself.
There are all two other 0341.• before my notice even
worse then the f mixer two, and in these it lathe saute
old st .ry, the Looney goes for drink, and what I say of
these cases I say to ail. If people will persist in
living in disregard of the word of God, and the rules
of economy, fleetness, cleanliness, an 1 chastity, they
will suffer for it here an i hereafter. LA me add
another word of teetiatony. I have never found •
Ottristian, who relies on the promise of God and lives
up to it, or • teetotaller, in such low water a, the
ea«. earned. Thee* is no h /ye, or help, or real
happiness for any, unless people receive the Hingd
ol God as • little child, end cause down at the feet of
Jesus. There is nothing can exalt fallen humanity
like the gospel of the grace of God. Let every reader
praise it, and they shall set to their tool that God ill
tros.—l am, yours,
