900 raised by the Southern Society for the erec-
ton of Bethel in New Orleans, or considerable
amount raised In New York for the repairs on the
Home. The expenditures have been $27 ,05l As.
The floating debt at the close Of the last fnan-
cial year was nearly 81 900. At the present time
it is 81 S0gO2, diminished less than other wise
