"A remarkable missionary fact, says an ex-
change, is the recent baptism at Shahiehan-
pore, India, of eighty-seven persons in one day
mostly by families, and of high caste.
The Methodist enumerates fresh air
among the means of grace.
Since our last Summary both the Congre-
gationalists and Universalists of the State
have held their annual conventions, the form

The Congregational Conference has been very
elaborately reported in these columns, while,
on account of the absence of our regular cor
respondent the UDiyersalist convention has
not been so well attended to.
Among the most important general mat
ters discussed were the Prohibition and Capt.
tai Punishment questions, the convention en-
dorsing the first and condemning the latter

DR. Livingstone, the great African ex-
plorer and missionary, says of heathenism:
have been, during nine weeks tour, in
closer contact with heathenism than ever be-

were as kind and attentive to me as possible,

numbering, of these children Of nature, SEEM

had ever before met with in my missionary
duties. took thence more intense disgust
az neasnenism than nad eeioTe, @ and formed q
missions at the South among tribes which are
reported to have been as the Molzolois. The
indirect benefits which, to q casual observer,
lie beneath the surface and are inappreciable,
in reference to the probable wide diffusion of
Christianity at some future day, are worth all
the money and labor that have been expended
to purchase them.

Mr.. GLMoRE's TEsrndoNIAL.-The Execu-
tive Committee of the National Peace Jubilee,
in responssto the widely expressed desire that
some fitting recognition should be made Of the
services of faMr. P. s. Gilmore, in projecting
and organizing the great Musical Festival lust
passed into the history of Boston, have decided
to repeat for his benefit the concert Of the 17tb
of June, which was universally considered to
be the greatest popular success of Jubilee
week. This concert will be given. on Tuesday
next, the 10Th instant, and the mammoth cho-
rus and orchestra have been secured for the
occasion, with only q slight reduction in their
ranks. The programme will be substantially
the same as last Thursday, and will include
the Anvil Chorus, and the Star Spangled Ban
ner, with all the novel and popular accompani-,
ments which have heretofore distinguished
their rendering. The great success of the
greatest event in the history Of modern times
was due, more than to any one other man, to
the gentleman for whose benefit the concert of
next Tuesday is to be given. He conceived
the mighty plan, and worked unremittingly in
the arrangement of the innumerable details;
his energy has been indomitable and his pluck
unconquerable; no obstacle could dishearten
him, no difficulty dismay; cheerfully persever-
ing when many of his co-laborers were ready
to succumb to the trials and discouragements
which accompanied the undertaking, he was
finally enabled to witness, as the result of his
combined musical genius and business man
agement, the complete and successful consum-
nation of scheme which at the beginning
was almost universally declared to be utterly
impracticable. But Mr.. Gilmore's deserts are
not unknown to the public, and the space that
is used in recording them is well nigh wasted.
We are confident that the simple announce
ment of this benefit will be sufficient to fill the
Coliseum in every part, and convey to the BEN
eficiary a substantial token Of the honor in
which he is held by citizens Of his own city and
the whole musical world.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
AWvoRD

"A HOhU
g of explanation seems necessary for
the guidance and benefit of my numerous
past, present, aud prospective City and Coun.
try Customers. The impression that have
connected myself with combination, COM
pany or clique, for the fixed, arbitrary and
unalterable government of the coal trade in
this City, 1.-THE limitation of engagements only
excepted,) is so much at variance with the
facts, as to require the statement as above
headed. And the above named customers to-
gether with the balance of the public, may
rest assured that my individual efforts for the
supplying of coal the coming season, win be
perfectly free and Uncontrolled by any ring or

The Bath Times has been one of the strong
est papers in opposition to the denomination of
Gov. Chamberlain, and the editor is one of the
leading members of the Good Templar organi-
cation, and holds one of the responsible offices.
In an editorial in the Times of yesterday, af-
ter reg,etting that the nomination was not en-
tirely unanimous, he says:
''The convention, however, representing the
whole State, and taking all the circumstances
INTO consideration, has pronounced for the
Governors reelection, and most willingly do
we redeem our pledge to give to him our ear
nest support, not permitting ourselves to doubt
unat the action of the convention will be tri-
umphantly ratified by the people,"

nais upon this subject as soon as we can find

At meeting OF the Cumberland Engine Com
pany No 8, held this evening, the following pream-
BILE and resolutions were unanimously adopted:
WhersGs, A certain gentleman ~ bearing the
cognomen of Samuel Thurston, has recently shown
himself 30 much interested In the welfare of this
Company, we deem it essential necessary and just,
both to him and ourselves that such kindness should
not pass unnoticed; and it is therefore
ResoIved, That the sincere and heartfelt thanks of
this Company due the said Thurston for the la
borious eye ertons put forth by him in our behalf on
this and sundry other occasions; and we gaze with
wonder upon his staticars frame, amazed that such
mighty works in behalf OF his follow men do not an
nihilate him.
Resatred, That we assure the gentleman that his
efforts in this direction appreciated, and win be
remembered by u.s. and we await only the opportuni-
ty to reciprocatc the affection he has so oeu shown

"HE THAT GlvETH TO THE POOR LENpETH TO
THE I.oRD.'-On Wednesday afternoon as we
were passing by M. G. Palmers boot and shoe
on Middle street, we noticed that the establish.
ment was filled with young children. Struck
with the unusual, sight of so many little ones
gathered together in place of the kind, we
made inquiry and found out that they were
the children of the Orphan Asylum, and that
about year ago Mr.. Palmer generously offer
ed to the Matron Of the establishment to fur
nish them with boots and shoes free of charge
This is indeed charity, in the broadest sense Of
the word, and although Mr.. Palmer may not
(although we trust he willy be rewarded in this
world, he has the satisfaction that he is aaying
up treasures in heaven" Such examples of
generosity are rare indeed.

hundred of the rising generation in Centre
street running after the spinnet player and his
monkey. The street was literally filed with
them; some very small girls carrying little ba-

hundred, with, remarkably well ventilated
trowsers, taking the lead, and all anxious to
keep even pace with the musician and monkey
