DR.. N. B. WATTS,
Respec,cd Sir Il regret that the health
of our family, forbids my acceding TO The
request of the Sons of Temperance, made
known to me through you, viz: to attend
their meeting in Huntsville on tomorrow,
and present a Bible TO them with an adj
dress. Feeling, as l do, deep interest in
whatever concerns the happiness of the
people of Huntsville, l rejoice greatly in
the establishment of Division of the No
BILE Sons of Temperance there, and could
be present, 10 behold them in all the pride
of sober consciousness, marching in united
strength along those streets, which have
30 often seen marked by the unstable foot
prints of the Inebriate, doubt not, the
,hrobbings of my heart would be in uni
son with many friends, sisters, mothers and
wives, in thankful rejoicing at the change
now making; and to be permitted TO pre-
sent TO them a Bible the book of books,
that it might be guide to them through
the pathway of life, lamp to their feet,
would be a privilege indeed. A Bible,
however, will be presented by one who
feels much for the success of the DIVISION
may its members study its precePts, cher
ish them in the Utmost receSses OF their
hearts, and be guided by them unDaoering-
IN; then they will receive the reward Of
such consciousness Happiness.
Some are opposed to secret societies:
was once of that number, but more ex-
.ended knowledge Of The history of many
of them, and of the noble and exalted char
acter of many of their warm supporters
has done much 10 elevate them in my oPln'
ion.
Mankind, es a mass, are cold, selfish and
unfeeling TO the stranger, the destitute and
The afflicted. These societies seem 10 pos
scss magic power in changing the ma
lures of their members so entirely, that IN
every sense of the word, as far as acts are
concerned wherever they meet, the mem,
hers of The same society are brothers; they
will share their last penny, yes, even
their last morsel of food with needy
brother. his widow or orphan.
If this can be done, if men can be made
10 feel thus towards each other by secret

More Particulars OF the Hurricane in tn,

BosroN, Sept b. ls4S.
We have received further accounts Of the dread
full hurricane at the West Indies
At st. KITS it lasted five hours, with three shocks
Of an earthquake. during which the barometer
fell to 2s.6.
Throughout the whole of the Island the most of
the buildings are thrown down, and the sugar cane
completely. Frustrated. The loss of life Is very
great. The schooner Mary foundered, with all on
beard, and vessel at ST. Martins was lost.
ard ten Of her crew persisted. A number OF per-
sons have also been killed by the falling buildings.
The Legislature has been caedtogether. From
Antigua the accounts are interesting. The English
harbor and Falmouth are nearly ovcrthrown'
Pretty much all the plantations on the island arc
injured; eleven persons have been killed by the
falling buildings, and five churches thrown down.
The damage is greater than that caused by the
hurricane Of 1887, or the earthquake OF 1913, and
IL feared that worse accounts are yet to come.

At the meeting OF the American Board to-day,

Indians, and in reference to the missions to the
said nations. II appears that the Chcrokees own
eco slaves, and the Choctaws 1900.
The missionaries of these nations have written
letters TO the board, defending their course Of
neutrality in relation TO slavery. These letters
were answered by members of the board in
attendance at the Missionary Rooms, dissenting
from the principles stated In the letters of the
missionaries. They regarded slavery as great
evil. They aGni.:ed that shere wac distinction
