~ The ladies of the Union Beuey.
olent Society are very desirous that the friend.
Of the poo. should remember that they have q
meeting every Tuesday at P. ~, in the fret
Glass room of the n. E. Church, and do most
earnestly invite oil 10 come.
We feel confident that there are enough oi
those that are both able and willing to assist in
this benevolent undertaking. if they would
awake to the interests Of the cause.
We know there Is much reason to fear that
many may feel just at this present time that
charity begins at home; but let US say to
all those. that there is no better cure for sad.
despondng heart than the consciousness of
having made the family Of some poor friend or
neighbor to rejoice, because of the little you
had t. give.
We have seen 20 many little fearful faces
made bright and joyous when the wants Of
nature were relieved. that We have often felt
constrained to say, Surely, 1t is more blessed
10 give than receive"
1t is evident to all that there is great de.
mand for warm clothing
We cut and make at the Church on Tuesdsy
afternoon, and would like the assistance Of any
that feel disposed to help us. Any having
cast off clothing will confer favor by sending
it to the church on that day, or by leaving it at
the residence of the Secretary next the Con-
gregatioual church. We would also thank.
fully receive donations of provisions, groceries,
boots and shoes, and fuel. or anything that will
relieve the wants Of suffering humanity.
Our grateful and sincere thanks are due Mr..
Hildreth for his willing, warm.hearted re-
sPonse to our request to deliver lecture for
the benefit of the poor. He has ever been
willing to assist US.
Our Acknowledgements are also due Mr.. Hill
for the free use Of his splendid hall. and our
obligations to the publishers of the daily pa
pers, and to Messrs Luce, Lane d Co., for many
favors.
Our receipts for that lecture were not quite
SIS, yet We are not discouraged. We do not
desplse the day of small things, but hope and
trust that the generous people Of Davenport
will each one put their shoulder to the wheel
next time and give the poor an overfowing
house.

The fight still continues between the two

such course be taken, the Rockford road will
