band, and put up at Mrs. Murphy's No. 266 William

New YORK, May 9, 1888.
DEAN SrR-It is with feelings of regret that after
having vaInly looked the journals OF your city for
the last ten days, in hopes Of seeing meeting called
to take into consideration the dreadful calamity that
has beallen the city of Charleston, perceive that
yet such meeting has been called. Having lived
in Charleston for the last twenty years am well
quainted with the location Of the buildings destroyed
by the late fire, and sorry to say that in very
many instances it has destroyed the property Of those
who were in very poor circumstances, and are now
left destitute by the calamity. Under such circum-
stances feel assured that the benevolent spirit OF the
New Workers will not let the subject rest, but by call
ing meeting and appointing committee to receive
donations, show TO the Charlesonians (substantialy
that they sympathze with them. perceive that the
generous proprietor of the National Theatre (Mr
Wallack) will appropriate the proceeds Of next Sat
urday evenings entertainments as donation to the
Charleston sufferers. ! feel assured that they will
duly appreciate his kindness.
