EMPLOYMENT FOR TIE FREEDMEN OF THE
DIsTRICr- Charles H. Howard, As
sistant Commissioner of the Frecdmen's Blu
reau, has issued a circular TO colorcd preachers
Of this District, with request that it be read
TO their congregations This circular sets
forth that there is q much larger number OF
freed people in the District than can find work
at proper wages, and the Bureau has sought
the aid Of benevolent societies in the North
and East, and called upon Offices its own, Cor
the furnishing to the freedmen of employment
with fair remuneration. About 5000 freed
people lave been provided for during the past
year, having been furnished transportation
from this city to places at which employment
had been secured for them. 1t is stated in the
circular that amongst a population OF $4,000
freed peoplein the District, probably not more
than Is, 900 can obtain work ut lair wages, and
the colored people arc invited to avail them
selves of the agency of the Bureau IN giving
them transportation to points where they can
be furnished with employment. -.lIosh. Sta.
THE EXPECTED METEOR SHoWER.-I has
been announced by scientific men thata shower
of neteors may take place this week, on the
18th, l4th or 18th inst. The calculations are
based upon supposition that these showers
occur regularly every thirty third year So
certainly is this calculated on that preparations
have been made in Boston to arouse the citi-
zens BY sounding general alarm, and some of
the New York papers advocate the same mea-
sure in that city.
In this connection we subjoin a paragraph
from the New York Express, as follows The
phenomenon ma y occur in the day time, and
be invisible probability which
seems to have been overlooked by enthusiastic
writer's on the subject. 1t generally takes
place, however, between midnight and dawn. !"

that the wants of distant sections are to i great

'Washington, Georgetown and Alexandria

as far as Alexandria is concerned, our neigh

CaURCH EFIoUETTE.-1t is fashionable with
many to 20 late to church, long after the
sssrvices have begun, to the edifcation of the
curious in the congregation, and the comfort
of the nerves of the pulpit. 1t has lately
bsen decided, on high authority, that the fol-
lowing rules are to be observed on such oc
casons:
Let the lady advance one pace beyond the
door of the pew she wishes to enter, halt,
about face aud salute The pew must then
be vacated by such gentlemen are in it, by
flank movement. The squad should rise
simultaneously when the lady presents her
self, and face by the right flank, then dsploy
into the aisle the head man facing the lady,
aud the,ress walking to his right and rear,
the direction of the line being changed by
right countermarch, aud forming again into
line, up and down the Isle, still faced by the
right,,han The lady, when she secs that
the coast is clear, completes her salute, and
advances to her position IN the pew. The
gentlemen break off by files from the rear,
and resume their places. Great care should
be taken, of course, by other parties, not to
enter the aisle when this evolution is in pro-
gress, until it completed.
