PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE,
FOR
HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are giv©n gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c,,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and. sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, X 2,000 has been raised, but' to accomplish the
work a sum of at least .£l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor tandlies
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? Tho smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.

gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILRERT, No. 22,

WESTMINSTER.

AN INCORRIGIBLE YOUNG FEMALE THlEF.—Harriet
Childe, a pretty-looking girl 12 years of ago, was placed at
the bar, before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a large
bundle of knitting cotton from the shop of Mrs. Augur,
28, St. George's-place, Knightsbridge.
The son of the prosecutrix said that in consequence of
several pounds of expensive wools having been stolen
during the last week, he kept a watch upon the shop this
morning when the prisoner presented herself as the shutters
were being taken down, and said she wanted to buy a
thimble. Availing herself of the man who was opening tho
shop turning his back, the prisoner slipped behind the
counter and adroitly stole a bundle of cotton, with which
she was making off when witness stopped her, and al-
though the cotton was taken from her she denied the
charge.

Prisoner—lf you will forgive me this time I will never
do anything wrong again.
Mr. Selfe--Is anything known of this child ?

Mr. Augur said that, upon inquiries, he found that
although so young she was very old in crime. He had
taken her to her mother when she was detected in the com-
mission of the felony, and she informed him that she was
a most incorrigible thief, and that all attempts to reclaim
her had been unavailing.

Mr. Selfe—ls her mother here ?
Tke podee observed that she was not.

Sergeant Purchase, 10 B, said that to his knowledge the
prisoner bad baen twice charged at this court with felony
during the last few months.
Prisoner-1 will never do it again.
Mr. Selfo - Yes, you will if you have the opportunity, of
which I will endeavour to deprive you. Although so
young you are a little practised, hardened thief, and I
shall send you for three years to an industrial school.
The child's parents are respectable people.

THE DUTCH JUDGE.

There lived in one of the mountainous countries in
Western Virginia many Dutchmen, and among them one
named Henry Snyder; and there were likewise two bro-
thers, called George and Jako Fulwiler —they were all rich,
and each owned a mill. Henry Snyder was sub-
ject to fits of derangement ; but they were not of such a
nature as to render him disagreeable to any one. Ho
merely conceived himself to be the Supreme Ruler of the
Universe, and, while under the infatuation, had himself a
throne built, upon which he sat to try the causes of all who
offended him, and passed them off to heaven or hell as his
humour prompted—he personating both judge and culprit.
It happened one day that some difficulty occurred be-
tween Henry Snyder and the Fulwilers, on account of
their mills ; when, to be avenged, Henry Snydertook along
with him a book, in which he recorded his judgments, and
mounted his throne to try their causes.
He was heard to pass the following judgments.

EXTRACT OF MEAT (LIMITED).

The first general meeting of this company was
held yesterday at the London Tavern—Mr. Bout-
cher in the chaii.

The report stated that 17,810 shares had been ap-
lied for and allotted, which would provide the direc-
tors with ample funds, as far as could be ascer-
tained, to cover the cost of the enlargement of the
Fray Bentos establishment, and the purchase of the
land and construction of works contemplated in
Entre Rios. The directors believed that the produc-
tion of the extract of meat would amount in 1867
to 500,0001 b. or 600,0001 b. The quantity of ex-
tract of meat to be sent from Fray Bentos for ac-
count of the new company up to the 31st December
next might probably be from 50,0001 b. to 60,0001 b.
The quality was unexceptionable, and was fully
borne out by the supervision and analysis of Baron
Liebig, the director of the scientific department of
the company. The directors continued to receive
from the manager of the General Depot, at Ant-
werp, the most assuring accounts of the increasing
demand for the extract, not only in Europe, but
elsewhere, and it seemed a matter of little doubt
that they would be able to dispose of all they could
manufacture at remunerating prices. One pound of
this extract contained the soluble parts of 301 b. of
fine meat, either beef or mutton, free from fat or
gelatine, corresponding in quantity with about
451 b. of English butchers' meat, inclusive of the
usual quantity of fat and bones. It was used not
only for medical, but much more extensively for
household purposes, and when its real value was
understood the apparently high price would be
found moderate.
The report was adopted, and a vote of thanks
to the chairman and directors concluded the pro-
ceedings.

CHRISTY MINSTRELS,

The winter season of the attractive concerts given
by the Christy Minstrels at St. James's Mall, Pic-
cadilly, commenced last evening, and attracted a
very large audience. In addition to the favourite
vocalists that last season produced so much delight
and satisfaction, a number of new candidates for
public favour have been engaged, all of whom add
strength to the talented troupe which has so long, in
the face of all opposition, held its ground in the
great metropolis. The great novelty- of the
evening, however, was the first appearance of
Mr. F. Converse, the premier banjo player, and
from the specimen of his ability we had last evening
we have no hesitation in saying he is really a most
astonishing performer on that instrument. During
the entertainment we had a number of new ballads,
Mr. Rawlinson, of course, carrying off a large share
of the honours of the evening. Mr. Ritter gave
us one of his remarkaby clever jigs, and Messrs.
Moore and Crocker elicited the usual amount of
laughter by their very peculiarly humorous powers.
The operatic sketch, " The Baroness del Terra de
Fuego," with Signor Hard Hitti as the conductor,
is a capital bit of burlesque in its way, bringing
out the varied talent of nearly all the leading
members of the troupe, and at the same time
introducing 11. and J. Marshall in a very clever
pas de deux, which elicited general applause.
The programme, in addition to the above, con-
tains a variety of burlesque elements, and altogether
we know not of a pleasanter evening than that to
be had at the Christy Minstrels. Mr. H. Burgess,
the untiring manager, is unceasing in his desire to
provide for the comforts of the visitors.

ADELPIII.

This house reopened for the season last night with
the burlesque opera of " Helen," and Mr. Toni
Taylor's successful little drama, " A Sheep in Wolf's
Clothing," in which Miss Kate Terry made her first
appearance before an Adelphi audience. It is need-
less to say that her performance in this piece was as
graceful and impressive as it was at the Olympic,
and that she was received with deserved warmth by
the public. A new drama and other novelties are
announced as in preparation.
