Tribute Of Respect.

Ats meeting Of Minturu Lodge, No
10, A. Il. and A. NJ, held on the 18th
day Of November, 1871, committee
was appointed to draft resolutions Of re-
spect to the memory Of our late brother,
JAS. II. HoorR, NJ. d., said committee
reported the following resolutions, which
were adopted:
7 WHEREAS, 1t has pleased the AL.
mighty Ruler Of the Universe to sum.
mons from the field Of earthly labor to
the blissful refreshments Of that Spiritu.
al Lodge above, our worthy brother,
JAMES II. HooFP; and while we humbly
bow to the mysterious dispensation Of
Him who ruleth 10 wisdom, and chas-
tencth in mercy, yet, we feel this is but
another occasion to impress upon this
Lodge, the uncertainty of life and the
certainty of death. From the tender
years Of childhood to the going out Of
the vital power in age, death reigns su.
preme over every lineameut of the hu-
man form. Neither beauty, talents nor
wealth can avert the fatal shaft, for
"Dust we are, and into dust We shall re,
turn, Ibutthe spirit alone made in the
image and likeness ofits Divine Archi>
tect, shall survive the dissolution Of
perishable matter, and seek in Him its
final happiness.
Resolcea, That we deeply sympathize
with the widow and children Of our de-
ceased brotherin this, their great attic.
ton, but we bid them believe that if the
birds Of the air have the care and prcvi.
dence Of Him who made them, how much
more now our deceased brother, who,
while living, was devoted husband, a
kind and indulgent father, sincere
friend, in the Lodge a consistent and
worthy member, and in his many rela.
tions with the world, an industrious,
honest, and patriotic citizen.
Rssolued That the furniture and jew.
els of the Lodge be draped in mourning,
in memory of the deceased brother, for
thirty days.
Resolced, That these resolutions be
entered upon the minutes of this Lodge,
and that the Secretary furnish copy
to the family o. our deceased brother,
and also to the newspapers Of this town
for publication.

the sumptous elegance Of this Issue Of that
remarkable periodical, The Adline' The

quality to the very finest holiday books
and the pages folded down to an ordinary

$500. All Of which is afforded for one

five cents. Surely no better example
could be asked Of the mighty power OF Tue

to the humblest home. OF the fifty plct-
ures which this royal number contains,
some Of the very choicest are Of the small

cursory glance at tile full page plates Of
which there are nine
The first is a scene suggestive Of Christ
mas chimes:
"Shaking the tall gray ivied tower
With all their deep melodious power
They still proclaim to every year
Old Christmas comes but onoe year.
The moon just emerging from the clouds
behind the tower, and the warm glow OF
the lamp light from the chapel make q very
effective picture.
The second is a festivity Of the season.
Gaily equipped sleighs in the foreground
filled With happy faces. bound to some hos.
pitable goal to held high carnival aud make
the most Of che good time that comes but
once year.
The third is skating scene "Ou the

inequalities, both in the performance and in the
working of the scenery, such as are to be ex-
pected at first representation, but hereafter
these will be remedied, and the piece will pro-
gress as smoothly as could be desired. With
the exception that some of the actors required
the assistance of the prompter rather fire.
quently, the leading parts were well-sustained,
Mr.. Nagle rather carrying of the honors 10y a
vigorous and melodramatic personation of "The
Old Man of the Mountain" Mr.. Thorne made
a spirited representative of 'Bohemond" and
Miss Glover sufficiently lovely "Almea." Mr..
Lennox as "Gogo," the comic farrler, sustained
his reputation as an excellent performer in this
line of business.
The Old Man ofHe Mountain is undeniably
very handsome spectacle, and 1t deserves to
have an extended run. The chief difficulty it
labors under is lack of stage-room the stage
of the Chestnut being too narrow to enable
elaborate scenic effects to be given in the most
approved style. The piece, however, was
heartily applauded last evening" and as there
has been nothing in the spectacular line pro-
duced here for some time, it will doubtless prove
a brilliant success
