touching that 1t could not have failed
to effect her very profoundly, Among
the numerous and tasteful floral offer
ings which she received on this her
first professional appearance, was q
beautiful device In the form Of & harp
resting on a bed Of the choicest flowers,
all emb,ematic OF faith, hope and tenr
der memories. Attached to the offer.
ing was q card with only these words
upon il: ASLEEP in Jesus, North
Conway, September Is, 1863" 1t is
supposed that the gift is made In COM
memoratiOn Of an event which oc-
Cured two years ago, when Mrs.
Moulton arrived at North Conway,
Just as q great and Overwhelming sor-
row had overtaken visitor at one of
the hotels in the sudden death OF Q

There has been in the minds Of some
aavana In this country an ides that the
hesvy jarrlng OF railroad trains kills sll
the insects along the roads. Hardee held
the theory that the tsrring OF cannon helps
to kill disease. 1t IL In pursuance OF this
theory that cannon have been fred in
Vicksburg ever since the advent Of the
fever there. A gentleman who arrived
here yesterday from VicksburE says thst
iEation haye yielded to the "jar" and
died. Nov as regards those persons. the
difference would not be much whether
they bad fsVered OF this mortal coil, or
shufaed 1t away by nervous shook from
the booming OIL cannon.

The Birmingham binding societies
also serve ss banks Of deposit. A serv-
ant girl car. put away $50 dollars, draw
thereon ten shillings year. and at q
months notice get back every cent.
with interest up to the time notice
was given. a great love for freehold
exists In Birmingham, and thousands
OF workingmen possess them. The
great object OF the land society is 10
buy large estate, 10 buy land whole
sale, and sell it 10 the members at the
wholesale price. Thus the society
gave lasa.g s33, 600 for one estate, and
divided d after draining it into nearl =
800 allOtnenfs. 'aThe first thing we
do" says the secretary sis to have a
plsn made Of the land; then streets
are made and drained, foot-roads are
paved and curbed, aud cutters are
formed, and 50 on, and whatever it
costs is added to the original cost OF
the land. Thus q great deal Of the
old wretchedness among English
voTkmen is done away with; the only
trouble is they are adding another ele-
ment to the force thst promises to
make an uneasy throne fOT the Prince
Of Wales 70 sit upon.
