We are very happy to report that the

one little bov, who is still an invalid from
| tie effects of the measles. All the rest are
as fat and healthy as could be desired. Ow-
ing to the liberality OF our supporters our
| expenses have not exceeded our donations,
which they would have done were It not
for the praiseworthy exertions of Mrs. DR..
Loving aud Mrs. Andrews. who succeeded
| in procuring Subscriptions TO the amount
of 500 per month. We feel very grateful
to the ladies, and much encouraged in our
arduous work by the interest manifested
tions, and also by the ladies who subscribed
to the. said 800 per month. Time and
space fail us, when we begin to tell of all
the substantial benefits received in the
shape ofsmeat, bread and milk, from va
rleus persons whose names are mentioned
above. If any names are omitted or mis-!
takes occur, We beg our friends TO excuse
US, as iJ is a matter of no small difficulty TO
keep an accurate list OF all the favors
received. We must be allowed to men,
tion one more case of thankfulne-s,
that is the second hand clothing which has
been so generously sent, that We have not
only clothed all the children at the Home,
but also furnished many needy children
who are in our care-but not in our house, 3
who live at their own homes such as they
are. We are continuing our school at the
City Hall, as usual Nearly one hundred
children have already entered, though,this
is but the third Saturday since it's COM
mencement. Last Saturday more than
thirty little girls were Obliged to sit with
out sewing, simply because there were so
few teachers present. Once more we ask
for. teachers. Cannot a f w more of our
lady friends spare two hours on Saturday
afternoon in assisting us? The work is
not difficult. To teach class of five or six
little girls, to make and mend their own !.
clothes, is task which most of the ladies
can, perform with very little effort. %
To meet the wants of this branch of our
work, the managers have decided to hold
their ANIMAL festival the second Tuesday of
November. They earnestly Invite, not
only their lady friends, but also the gem
tlemen to patrOniZe them. 1t is well
known that there are In our city hundreds
who do hot and cannot attend either day
or Sunday School for want of clothes and
books.
The managers of the Industrial S:hool
arc cooperating with the ladies of the
Benevolent Society in seeking and CLOTH
ing those children. as farras they have the
means, on condition that they actually at ,
tend school. Now, it is evident that these
societies cannot do this work without the
hearty corporation of all who love the
prosperity OF our city. We leave it to the
gentlemen to decide whether those chill.
dren shall have clothes tit to attend school,
or be left TO hover around their own wretch
ed homes in rags and filth, while they are
adding house to house and bank stock to q
railroad dividends. But We plead not
alone Tor Che very poor aud shiftless.-
There are in our city large numbers of
children whose parents do all in their
power, but who cannot supply their nu-
merous family with all the clothing they
need. rs
For these we do ask the means of fur
nisfing pair of shoes, dress or cap occa-
sionally, that their children may be able to
attend school comfortably clothed. We do
not intend to urge this matter. We have
been bountifully supplied heretofore, and
we are confident those who have so liberal-
ly supported US are as rich to-day in this
worlds goods as those who have given us
nothing. But we are forgetting to record
one disaster which. befel US during the
month. af '9h-l-5
Our house caught fire, causing us con-
siderable expense and a vast amount of
trouble, clearly demonstrating that it will
be qui difficult to keep warm without be-
ing burnt up. However, we hope to guard
against such ecatastrophes. = ~

The NEWELL CAsE.-The case of II. w.
Newell, charged with illegally voting at
the Eighth Ward polls ON Tuesday, Oct.
18th, came up for examination before the
Mayor yesterday. The case presented
some very curious facts 1t appears that
Newell married lady living in Union
county, he at that time being resident OF
Delaware county; that in few days after
his marriage he came to this city to study
medicine with DIR. Hamilton; that he offer
ed to vote here in 1867, and being warned
that he was not a legal voter of this
county, he Immediately went to the city
of Delaware and voted there; that, his
wife still living in Union county, and the
question of domicile not being
changed, he voted here at the last cleo
tion, he being advised by counsel that
he had right so to do. Since the election,
in fact within week, his wife has taken
up her residence in this town, and that re-
moval of hers here destroys any claim he
may have had to right to vote here to-
day, he not having resided with his family
in the county for thirty days next preced-
ing the election. Newell lost his residence
in Delaware county by residing in this
county, yet having a family in Union
county, he cannot vote here, yet be-
cause of non-residence in, Union county he
1 cannot vote there. The Court held that
