CHARITY.-The ladies' charitable society Of
the Church of the Unity will hold q speciai
meeting, this afternoon, at the unity room, fol-
the purpose of sewing for the poor negroes at
Washington, under the care of Mrs. Griffin, who
has devoted herself to this service for the past
eight years. AS the storm of Sunday prevented
many of the congregation from listening to the

quested to send to the room, during the after
noon, such contributions of Materials clothing,
or money, as they may be disposed to give.
Dir. T. NJ. Woodward, whose fine work as
sign painter has been so much admired in innu-
merable instances, has just turned out a very
creditable specimen of another class of work--a
large picture, on which he has been working by
odd jobs for over year. 1t is a hunting scene,
consisting of central picture surrounded by
scroll work in gold leaf, and corner pieces rep
resenting different kinds of game. The picture
is seven feet and three-quarters by five and a
half in size, and was painted for Mr.. Samuel
Stratton at No. 81 Main street, at cost of about
three hundred dollars.
