SECOND MONTHLY REPORT

Of J. P. JULIAN, COlp0rteur Of tile american Bible
Society an FAKE County, N. g.
To the Committee of the Bible Society of Wake
County, the following, my Second Monthly Report,
is respectfully submitted
In the first place will state, that owing to some
very unfavorable circumstancesin which have been
placed for the last four weeks, have not been able
to accomplish much during this month as should
otherwise have done. And on account of lost time
have had to delay this my second Monthly Report
from the 18th until the Goth of this month.
will here take the opportunity of acknowledging
myself greatly indebted to Kmbrough Jones, Esq.
and Rufus H. Jones, Esq, former Chairman of the
Board of Superintendent of Common Schools in
Wake County, for the kind services which they have
contributed to the American Bible Society.
have visited two hundred and thirty-cight fam-
lies during this month, and found forty of them, or
onesxth part entirely destitute of any portion
of the word of God and twenty three partially
destitute, having either old Bible with part Of
it torn out, or only New Testament. Making in all
sixty-three found destitute, one-fourth part
In one Free School District which have explored
| visited thirty-three families and found eleven of
lures and three more partially destitute, having only
the New Testament
1 have found many families that had but one BIZ
ble and that had in most instances either been
sold to them given to them by CoiportcUr of the
American Bible Society.
Nearly all the young men and young ladies in the
country where have been laboring have found
without any Bible of their own and not one in fifty
can say Lney nave reau the BlDle naH through.
have therefore tried to get the parents to buy
Bible apiece for each OF their children that could
read and have used every effort could to get young
persons to supply themselves But although have
met with some success, sorry to say that have
not been able to get one half of the young people
supplied .-
have supplied all the destitute families which
have visited, either in whole or in part with the word
of God.
1 have sold forty-nne Bibles and forty eight Tes-
taments, amounting to $65,25; and have given away
forty-eight Bibles and one Testament, amounting to
$1705. Total number Of Bibles and Testaments
disposed Of one hundred and fortysix, amounting to
$92 80.
have received donations to the cause from sever
al persons in the country, amounting in all to $1095.
The above facts speak for themselves and 1 do
hope that men of wealth and Intelligence who pro-
fess to have the of God and their country's
interest at heart will consider these things and feel
themselves called upon if they would discharge their
duty faithful stewards of God to contribute more
liberally to the American Bible Society.
All which is submitted.

cold pour in the blue water by degrees and you can
make the wash of any tint you may desire. Stir

earthern vessel for mixing the vro water and lime
in as wood affects the color injuriousy. To cover
smoke and other impurities, irstapply coat or two
of common whitc-wash. az
A Yellow Wash for Walls is made by taking
quarter of pound of chrome yellow, "a quarter of
pound of gum senegal, and two pounds of whiting.

SOUTHERN QUARTERLY REvIEw.-The October
number of this excellent periodical makes its ap-
peaIance with sort of apologize preface deprecat
ing the criticism of its readers 1t appears that in
consequence Of the ravages of the late epidemic In
Charleston, the proprietors of the work were com.
PEELED to publish the present number in Columbia,
and that in consequence several articles of superior in
terest which had been prepared for were misplaced
and others substituted that were more Immediately
within reach. As frequently happens in such cases.
if the suggestiono of anticipated deficiencies had not
been made to Us, we should not have noticed any
falling Of for the number before US is scarcely il at
all inferior to any of its predecessors The opening
article, "On the Unity Of the Human Race" dis
plays o thorough acquaintance with chronological
science, and reviews In spirit of calm and dispas
sionate criticism the fragrant theories Of "The
Types of Mankind" The article "On Mar
sisge and Divorce. has for object to show
that We have fallen behind the European
States in legislation on this subject, and that
tie claims of religion, morality and sound policy
demand total change in the principles of our laws
Whilst We concur in most of the writer's vews, we
must guard ourselves against being supposed to
hold in any great degree Of respect European
legislation in the matter of divorce, the unfair ope
Ao'HSA " WuiCA - Icg6IQb tue poorer classes may
well be balanced against the evils Of our own code
" The Prospects and Policy Of the South are ably
handled by writer who is eminently conservative
In his opinions, and who seems to incline to the
principles, If principles they can be called, which
are now uniting in the bonds Of secret organizations
the elements of q new and powerful party. In the
article entitled Northern Periodicals versus the
South, the Inconsistencies of some of our pseudo.
literary contemporaries rather severely handled,
and the conclusions to which they tend may be
found Of some assistance in the controversy now
pending on the merits Of the political pretensions
which they have lately advanced.
Garrett & Co. have just published neat little
volume, entitled The Lady's Complete Guide to
Crochet and Fancy Knitting" by Mrs. Anne s.
Stephens, the author of Fashion and Famine. This
useful work contains not only the clearest elemen
tay instructions for the most complicated patterns
in CROCHET and knitting, but also for every kind Of
fancy needlekork It is profusely illustrated by
diagrams.
The came publishers have also ready the third
edition Of The Cabin Boys Story" tale which
seems likely to have an extended run, from its local
illusions and absorbing interest. There are few
modern works Of fiction the perusal Of which has
given us more pleasure.
