Perry, aged 63, and Anthony Atherton aged II
wears. Feeling alusion was made to the case of
the little boy CANCEL Babbitt," who had been
kept from school for over three years by eXcru-
cating sickness, but whose condition was now
improving. Among the interesting exercises
which followed the report was the speaking of
pieces by several of the children
Addresses to the children were made by Rev.
Albert Tyler, Rev. Mr.. st. John, and Mr.. Mecor-
ney, in which reference was made to the proba-
bility of holding the next semi-annual meeting
in the new church, accompanied with thoughts
and reflections on associations connected with
the old church, where the present superintend-
ent has OBLIGATED at thirty-seven semi-anuual
gatherings of this kind, and the present pastor
had been present at twelve. Speaking of the
penny collections from the children Mr.. St. John
said they had paid for $4,000 of the $4,000
bricks in the new church ediice, nearly cover
ing the vestry which they hoped soon to occupy.
THE AMERICAN SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION
The meeting at Mechanics hall last evening, adj
dressed by five well-known and efficient work
ers in the union, proved very interesting one.
1t was conducted by Rev. II. Clay Trumbull,
who preached for the Plymouth church yester-
day. Mr.. Trumbull was the first speaker, and
in his remarks showed the condition of things
relating to Sabbath school education in the
state of Connecticut, the field of his special
labors. He was followed by Rev. Mr..
Marsh, formerly of Wisconsin, but now in
western Massachusetts; Rev. S. II. Record, whose
labors extend over the state of Rhode Island
and into the southern portion of this county;
Rev. John McCullagh, from Kentucky, who has
been in the business of organizing Sunday
schools in this country for thirty years or more,
having come from Scotland for THAT purpose !;
and Rev. o. c. Dickerson, formerly of illinois,
but now belonging in this state, and residing in
Springfield Each of the speakers talked of
the works accomplished by the Sunday school
union, and the necessity for such a work, the
meeting last evening being not for the
purpose of raising money, but that the people
here who help TO support and are interested in
the work may know what is being done. A de-
plorable ignorance of the Bible and of Christian
truths is reported by them as existing in the
small towns of even the New England states.
| The work of these gentlemen is not done under
the auspices of any church or denomination as
such, but it is carried on by friends of the
Christian religion, who take this method of
| gathering the children into the Sunday school,
and by that means elevating the people Of dis
| tricts where ungodliness, ignorance, and vice
are the only influences that surround the boys
| and girls.

Shipwreck.
Terrible Suffering and Loss of Life.

SAN Francisco, Jan. 8. = United States
steamer Saginaw went ashore on the morning
of Saturday, October Doth, on Peian island
The French frigate Shoals was near Midway
island from the time the vessel went on until
she went to pieces, on the 14th of November
following. A heavy surf prevailed, and in
consequence, very little could be saved from the
wreck. Especially was it difficult to obtain
provisions on board, and, because of the small
quantity saved, the officers and crew. ninety in
number, were placed ON quarter rat;ons, as the
island on which they were wrecked furnished
no food. On the 18th Of November the execu-
tive officer of the Saginaw, Lieut. Talbot, with
some Of the sub-officers, started in a gip
for the Sandwich Islands, and, on the
18th OF December, one mouth afterwards
came in sight of Kanai, one of the
Sandwich Island group, but all so exhausted.

Talbot, Peter Franciss, quartermaster and

ETHAN ALLEN, ESQ.,, of this city, well known
here and throughout the country as an extern
siye manufacturer of firearms, died at his resi-
dence, early Saturday morning, aged Ga years.
His health had been failing for the last year or
two, and his death was not wholly unexpected.
He was widely known, not only as a manufac-
turer, but, also, as an inventor No mSn in the
country has invented so many valuable i'm
provements in firearms or in the machinery for
constructing them. He was native of Belling-
ham, and began business in Grafton, in 1882, as
manufacturer Of pocket cutlery, but soon en-
gagged in making pistols. He preceded Colt in
this business. One of his earliest inventions was
the pepper box revolver" produced in 1915.
Mr.. Allen came to Worcester about twenty
five years ago. Soon after starting in business.
he formed partnership with his brother-in-law,
Charles Thurber, and in 1887 their business was
removed to Norwich, Conn. They came to
Worcester in 1S45 and hired power and rooms
of w. T. Merrifeld, Esq. In 1854 they were
burned out by the disastrous fire of June 14th.
After this fire, the establishment near the juno
ton, now occupied by Ethan Allen & Co., was
built. About this time, the late t. Prince
w hSSlOSh wac auhAllbcu lulO Inc lTIIl, ana the
business was carried on by Allen, Thurber &
Co., until 1857, Mr.. Thurber retired From this
time the business was conducted by Allen &
Wheelock, until 1864, when Mr. Wheelock
died. After Mr.. Wheelock's death, Mr.. Allen
formed a partnership with his two sons-in-law,
Messrs. Sullivan Forehand and H. C. Wads-
worth, the firm name being Ethan Allen & Co.
This firm has since conducted the business with
eminent success.
Mr.. Allen was one of the most prominent and
successful of that class of business men whose
enterprise has done so much TO promote the
growth and prosperity of Worcester. He was
universally esteemed for his integrity and for
his great skill in his business. By his industry
and foresight, he had acquired large fortune.
His homestead estate is among the finest in the
city. MIR. Aliens funeral will take place to-

THE WORCESTER STREET RAILwAY.-Ac-
cording to the official railroad returns, just
printed, the capital stock OF the Worcester rail
way, actually paid in, is $4,000, the amount OF
funded debt, $4,000, and the amount of float
ing debt, $s,O36. The expenses for working the
road, during the ten months ending September
80, 1870, amounted to s19,798 and the earnings
during the same time were ST. ,4S7. A detailed
statement would, doubtless, show that the earn
ings daring the first half of the time were con-
siderably less than during the last five months
and, also, that considerable amount of money
has been expended in repairing and improv
ing the road, which, of course, is not included
among the expenses of working the road. The
report states that the cost of the real estate and
buildings owned by the company was $40, 3O7.
The company will probably find its business
more valuable this year. We understand that
the earnings exceeded the expenses during the
last twomonths of 1870.
