MARROW EsCAPE.-A very narrow escape
from fearful death occurred Thursday in this
city. The little daughter of Mr.. Sargent, who
lives on Congress near Smith street, fell from
the attic window to the ground below, dis
lance of twenty feet. She quickly picked
herself up and walked off. The only injury
she sustained was a few slight bruises. She
is only two years and a half old, and can safely
be set down as one of the smart little girls.

The Temperance Moxement.


The regular prayer meeting of the Associa-
ton was held yesterday morning 1t was vot-
ed to hold prayer meetings every Monday,
"Wednesday and Friday mornings until further
notice at the same time and place. No pro-
gress was reported as yet by the District Com
mittee further than that they had about com
pleted their preparations for the business.
1T was announced that DIR. Lewis would not
be able to be here tonight as he has been call
ed home to attend his patients. At the close
of the business session short and fervent pray
ers were offered. A subcommittee was ap-
pointed to find more centrally located place
for meeting
The Women's Association held their meeting
at three O clock yesterday, Miss Scales presd-
ing. The committee reported that in some
cases they had met with good success. They
complained that those who offered the most as
sistance in the start had withdrawn their sup
port.
A long discussion took place in regard to the
pledge. Some ladies thought it was too strict,
others that if it was changed it would give too
much liberty, and that anyone could sign it
and then get quite intoxicated on cider. 1t was
proposed to offer the one already adopted, and
if that too strong to present, theh offer the
pledge of the Mems Association. But this was
talked down, and it was decided to lay the
matter over until next meeting. After prayer
the committee started on their visits.
The temperance meeting at the Allen Mission
last evening was well attended. Earnest and
affectionate speeches were made by Rev. Mr..
Pendleton and Capt. Sturdivau (who is at
home at the Allen Mission), Mrs. A. Dyer, Mrs.
Stowe, Miss Ellis and others. A large number
signed the pledge.
The ladies visited several of the hotels yes
terday and were cordially received at each
place. The bar tender at one place said he
would like to give up the business if he could
nnd anything else to do. He said that he
would like to havs the ladies call and see him
this morning. He told them that he had $4,000
worth of liquors and that he did not know
what to do with them.

ON'NA1AN''
limb of the law domcied in this city has but
recently recovered from the measles. He feels
heartily ashamed because he omitted to have
that cheerful disease in all its variegated glory
when boy; but shame at his hardness is the
least of his Affections. When he first made his
appearance on the street after recovering from
his illness bis cheek had lost its ruddy color and
was sicklied over with the pale cast of conva-
lescence His friends naturally felt solicitous,
and their solicitude took the form of mournful
"reminiscences, anything but comforting to the
young man. On Monday he met a lady who
assured him he was out too soon. She once
had cousin in Oxford county who ventured
out two weeks after having, as was supposed
entirely recovered from the measles and who
was taken with a relapse and died. Tuesday
he encountered another condoling friend who
fastened to tell him of brother who ventured
out three weeks after recovery, upon a very
fine day, much pleasanter than any we have
had this spring. but who was promptly swept
away by the remorseless measle fiend We'd
nesday he saw an acquaintance who once knew
a man who ventured out four weeks after re-
covery, and who looked perfectly well, much
better in fact than our legal friend, but who
went into fits the next day and soon died.
Thursday he met several sympathising people
who related many instances of persons who
had ventured out five, six, and even seven
weeks after recovering from an attack of the
measles, and who were now all either deaf OF
blind. And to cap the climax one of his legal
brethren yesterday sent client to him with a
terrible warnin,. The client once had an at
tack of the measles, very mild one, and six
months after, venturng out, he fell and broke
his leg. This last tale foored our GONZALES
cent. He has taken to his bed and says he
shall stay there until next spring. By that
| time he hopes to be out of danger
