A religious revival has been in
progress for several days past,
at the NJ. E.. Church in Boonville,
and still continues.
During the last four weeks thirty
seven conversions and twenty-three
accessions; making in all forty CON

the NJ. E. Church at Newburgh. The
interest is still on the increase.
Rev. Henry S. Little, of the Pres

The main room of the Plymouth

for use in the Spring, but the founda-

LOSS OF THEY NJ. G. A. HALL OF
CHICA GO.

The telegraph has already informed
our readers of the total destruction
by fire of the Young Mems Christian
Association building, of Chicago, on
the morning Of the 9TH inst. The
total loss by the fire is 100000, in
Guiding the other tenants. The As
ISOLATION has issued an appeal to
their friends to assist them in rebuild
ing. We make the following extract:
The erection of this building. the
first in the world occupied by, and de-
voted exclusively to, the interests of
our associations, has been a work of
patient and unwearied labors, con-
tiuued through many years. 1t has
involved sacrifices of time, money,
business and pleasure. 1t cost fully
5000 600. In the expenditure of this
large sum we feel that we were fully
justified. We built not for our
own pleasure, or to crafty our
pride. Our work has aimed at
the Sd{UGtt0n of men, not our own
friends, or neighbOrs, or even citizens
alone. but that the sons of strangers
might have place equal to that of
our sons or daughters To every
young man in the wide world, look
ing towards our fair city, we have
reached an open hand. We have ever
never turned away the hungry unfed,
the naked unclothed, nor the sick or
sorrowing or homeless, without offer
ing friends and shelter. And we feel
that the hearts of the Christian pa
rents of this land will respond,
Amen.
The completion of our new and ele-
CANT building was hailed with lejoic-
ing everywhere. Hundreds came from
different towns and cities to be pres
ent at its dedication, and returned
blessed by the meeting and strength
ened by the example. We know your
hearts Will beat with quick sympathy
for US in this hour of our sorrow, and
to you we submit our cause and its
claims. Our building cost $4,000,
and its furnishing over ,000-mak-
ing 100000 Our loss lin the build
ing alone) exceeds our insurance by

and library.

CITY MATTERS.

prayer meetings, held in the different
Protestant Churches of this city dur
ing this week, have been tolerably
we'll attended, but the houses have
not been crowded. A good degeee Of
interest has been manifested, and it
is hoped that great good may result
from them.
We notice by our exchanges that
the week of prayer has been similarly
observed in other cities of tie State,
and elsewhere throughout the coun-
try; as it doubtless has all over
the world.
There is quite an increase of inter
crest in the cause of Temperance in
this city. 1t will be seen from the
notices above, that meetings will be
held in two of the Charches to-mor-
row, under the auspices of the Ten
perance organizations of the city.
The work on the First Baptist
Church has been delayed in conse-
quence of the extremely cold wealth

WHITE PINE COMPOUND,
rs NOW OFFERED To THE Ar

having been proved by the test of eleven
years IL the New England States, where
its merits have become as well known as
the tree from which, in part, it derives its
virtues.
The White Pine Compound Cures
Sore Throat, Colds, Coughs, Dtpthe-

and Pulmonary Affections generally.
1t IS a Remarkable Remedy for
Kidney ConspLqints, Diabetes, Diff

from the Kidneys and Bladder,
Gr0UeL and other complaints.
In November, 1855, L first advertised il
under the name of White Pine Compound.
In TWO years from thai time there had
peen wholesaled in Manchester alone one
hundred thousand dollars worth, where
it took the lead of all the cough remedies
in the market. and 1t sui maintains that
position. There are good reasons Tor th1si

a person in using it for cough was not
only cured of the cough, but was also
cured of a kidnev difficulty OF ten years
standing. Since that accidental discovery,
many thousands have u ed 1t for the same

cured.'
THE WHITE PINE COMPOUND.
ait was early in the spring Of 80 that this
com pound was originated. A member of
my family was afflicted with an irritation
of the throat, attended with a dfsagreeable
cough. l had for some months previous
thought that preParatIoa having Tor It's
basis the inside bark of White Pine might
be so compounded as to be very useful in
diseases OF the Throat and Lungs. To test
the value of it in the case alluded to,
compounded a small qHant y OF the med1-
cine that L had been planning, and gave 1t
in teaspconful doses. The result was ex-
eeedingly gratifying. Within two days,
the irritation of the throat was removed,
the cough subsidized, and a speedy cure was
effected.
1860. Since then, as in manchester, tht
White Pine Compound has taken the lea1
of all cough remedies, as well as preparE-
lions for the cure OF kidney difficulties, i
every city, town, village, and hamIeL
throughout the New England states.

ANNUs DoMINI.-Numerous cor
respondents ofthe Cincinnati CON-
merciaI are discussing the question
whether this is the sixty eight or
the sixty ninth year Of the century;
which, is about as abstruse as the
question whether this is the
eighteenth or nineteenth century.
But the best Of the joke is that
almost all of them Gall, We believe,
but we won't insist on it) speak of
the year 1900 as the first of the
present century. 1t seems to be
agreed on all hands in Cincinnati
that the year 1899 was the last
of the eighteenth century, and Of
course that the year SO was the
last of the first century, and
(log is logic, that's all we say")
necessarily that ninety nine years
make century, and, equally neces-
sarily, that ninety nine IS one
hundred.

read with interest
HAMBURG, January 4, 1868.
General John A. Wagener, Commits.
sioner Of Emigration:
SIR 1T is with great deal ot
satisfaction, / can communicate to
you, that I have at last arrived at
something moe definite in regard
to direct communication with
Europe. The Hamburg American
Steam Ship Company have au-
thorized me to inform you; that
the Company will be willing to
let those steamers, which are now
running to New; Orleans, call at
Charleson, if goods or emigrants
enough can be- furnished to pay
for the expense. The steamers
would, commence. on the. list. OF
October, 1868, and make seven
trips to New Orleans, the last trip
April 1869, though steamer may
be had at any. other time, if it
become necessary. The company
would also form second compa-
ny with the merchants Of Charles
ton, and let them have one or TIVE
steamers as the case might re-
Quire and would work to their
mutual interest.
It is the desire here, that the
cotton should be imported direct,
and not over England. The Ham
burg American Steam Ship Com
pany is, too we'll known, 80 | need
not tell you, that the proposal is
made in good faith, and it will
now rest with the merchants of
Charleston to act in this matter.
A direct communication can now
be established, and I do not need
to enlarge upon, how much in
every way it would benefit our
State. Hoping soon to hear from
YOU in relation to this matter,
I am very respectfully,
WI. FERLOV,
State Agent.

= "A REGIMENT PERIsHING FROM
:THRlsr.-When the Egyptian
troops first conquered Nubia, a
regiment was destroyed by thirst
in crossing this desert. The men,
being upon limited allowance of
water, suffered from extreme
thirst and, deceived by the ap-
pearance Of q mirage that exactly
resembled teautiful lake, they
insisted on being taken to it's banks
by the Arab guide. 1t was III vain
that the guide assured them the
lake was unreal, and be refused
to lose the precious time by
wandering from his course. Words
lend to blows, and he was killed
by the soldiers, whose lives de-
pended on his guidance. Tae
whole regiment turned from tho
track and rushed toward the well
come waters. Thirsty and faint,
over the burning sands they hur-
ried-heavier and heavier their
footsteps becane-hotter and hot
ter their breath, as deeper and
deeper they pushed into the
desert, further and further from
the lost track where the pilot lay
in his blood; and stillthe mocking
spirits Of the desert, the afreets Of
the mirage, led them on, and the
lake glistening in the sunshine
tempted then to battle in it's cool
waters, close to their eyes but
never at their lips. At length the
delusion vanished-the fatal lake
turned to burning sand Raging
thirst and horrible despair the
painless desert and the murdered
guide !! lost! lost! all lost! Not
a man everleft the desert, but they
were subsequently discovered,
parched and withered corpseS, by
the Arabs sent upon the Search
The Nile Tributaries Of AIyssinia.
