METHODIST SUTDAY-SCHOoLS SoCTETY.-The
regular monthly meeting Of this Society
was held at Broad-Street church on Sunday
afternoon at half-past 3 o'clock-Richard
lrhy (prcsidcnt) in the chair.
The meeting was opened with prayer by
Rev. DR.. Mcferrin, Of Nashville. Tenn.
The singing was by Broad-Strcet school,
in very excellent style, under the leadership
Of Mr.. Y. J.. Fore.
The meeting was IN unusually large and
enthusiastic one. This large church was
and the ministers and delegates Of the NiI-
ginia Conference now in session in this city.
Rev. Mr.. Hodges, of the Virginia Confer
encc, who has been lahorin@ very Zealousy
in the destitute regions Of Henry county,
Va, gave very interesting account Of his
labors. When he first visited the circuit
there was not Il school on the circuit, but
he had been enabled, by assistance from
Richmond. to establish ten schools, with an
average of seventy scholars. There was
much encouragement for the cause in that
section.
Julia Putrcy, of Broad-Strcet school, re-
cited in remarkable style 4 beautiful poem
entitled "The Little Match Girl" SO
affecting was the manner in which this was
rccitcd that many Of the audience were
brought TO tears. while all united in eX-
claiming Beautiful beautiful"
Rev. DR.. Tudor, Of Washington city, de-
livcrcd very terycnt address. Under the
guisc of fairy tale he set forth that ''world-
~ possessions We're good, mothers love
was better, but the best thing in the world
was the love Of God in the heart" He very
feclingly and earnestly urged the children to
seek the I" love Of Cod
Rev. DR.. Bond, Of Baltimore, delivered a
very amusing and interesting, yet profitable
address, TO the children, reviewing the early
life OF the boys and girls, and advising them
TO "honor God and honor their parents >
that they might be good and happy children.
The Doctor illustrated his remarks with
many incidents conveying the moral and
religious truths he desired to inculcatc,
greatly to the delight Of the entire audience.
We never saw the children crjoy an address
as much rs they did that Of Dr.. Bonds, who
seems TO have Il happy way Of performing
the difficult task Of talking to children.

RICHMoHD MALE ORPHAN ASYLCI.-Ihis
institution was established in 1916. 1t has
had It's dark day>-dayS when it: friends
feared for its very existence; but, through
the energy Of its officers and the libcrality
of our people, it still lives. When DR.. Par
kcr took charge last year there were only
eighteen boys in the asylum now there are
thirty. The annual expenses are about
s., GOO, but rs there are number OF orphans
who might he taken if the asylum had the
means, there is no doubt that double that
amount could be judiciCusly used.
An indispensable charity like the asylum
should not have to depend Tor its Sustenta-
ton unon the spasmodic efforts Of agents, or
the fluctuating Hberaiity of the general pub
lie. 1t should have reliable source OF pe-
venue. Impressed with the Importance Of
this idea, Or. Parker, the president OF the
asylum, assisted by several members CT the
board of managers, has been engaged for
some time in making list Of persons whom
it is thought are able to contribute from Lve
to twenty-five dollars per annum--tive dol
lars constituting the donor member OF the
society.
There are lheral-minded ladies' and gen.
tlcmen in this city who have heretofore be-
slowed these sums upon the asylum regu-
larly, and it is believed they will continue
to do so !; but the management propose to
make complete list Of these and all other
persons who are willing and able to contri-
butte, and thus secure something like re-
liable income.
We need not say one word as to the wor-.
th!uess OF this charity. The most skeptlcal
cannot doubt it. There are those who doubt
the expedicncy Of religious charities who
cannot, and, we believe, do not, resist the
claims Of humanity.
This week Rev. Royal ". Figg, the busi-
ness agent Of the asylum, will commence
the work Of making the permanent subsclip-
tion list. Mr. Figg was the collector last
year, and is generally and favorahly known.
The financial year commences October 1ss,
and subscriptions will date from that time.
If this effort meets with the success it SO
manilestly deserves, DR.. Parker expects to
make printed list Of the subscribers, each
OF whom will receive copy OF the annual
address.
