In response to the above appeal, we have re

We have been asked whether the beneficiary
is Mr. Thos. Herman, the baker, of Longford
Ireland. We are panied to state that he is the
identical person, and as we understand there
are many Longford people in this city, W hope
they will not delay in sending their contri-
buttons for the relief of the old couple, whom
all must have known in years pact.

Editor Morning Star:

In your edition of Sunday be SO kind as to
notice sad case of destitution, which has
fallen under my observation. Within the past
year Thomas Herman, aged seventy years, and
wife, were sent for by a daughter, at that time
in partially good circumstances, and residing
in Mississippi. She paid their passage to New
Orleans, promising to furnish the balance on
their arrival. They have been here since last
September. living on the charity of the pro-
prietress of the Commercial Hotel, Girod street.
The daughter, at whose invitation they left
Ireland, has, in the mean time, fallen into q
destitute condition, and is unable to assist
them in any possible ay. They are old and
poor bnt would like to return to their native
land: The passage is but seventy dollars.
Would you, through your columns, be kind
enough to call attention to what, in my opinion,
is such deserving object of charity, and YOU
would oblige yours, etc,
J. G. FoOTE, Assistant Priest.

ceiYcd the fnllnHinn cantrihntinns.

Last week, in noticing the amusements at
ST. Stephens Hall, we took care to name, en-
couraginRly, the Black Swan Troup of Min.
strels, as rising band in the field of charita-
BILE competitors; while We took just as good
care not to name any other person or company,
except the Gaiety Comique Varities Amateur
Club, whom We plainly designated by abiding
to their Raveliike pantomines. Aud yet
some of their friends =" are not happy" because
the name of the club was not put in TYNE.
Fortunately, the members themselves can an
preciate our complimentary omission of the
superfluous mention and we hope their zeal.
Gus friends will hereafter be equally iudcious.
CONCERT AND EXHIBITION AT ST.. THERESA :
HALl.-In another column We publish the pro-
gramme of the concert and exhibition to he
given this evening, at ~ O'Clock, by the boys
'of St. Tberesa's School, in the Hall on Erato
street. This programme speaks for itself, and
promises fine entertainment where all may
Whlie away, pleasantly, an hour or two. What
We desire most to impress upon our readers is
the TACT that the ENTERTAINMENT is given for
the purpose of maintaining tho school at it's
present high standard. 1t is universally nc.
knowledged as being a perfect model of n
parOchiRl school, and shows conolusivsly In
what high excellence such an institution may
BIO brought by little good will on the part of
the people, directed by tho zeal and prudence
of their spiritual father. Father Kenny has de-
voted much time and money to tho schools in
his parish, and we feel very confident
that the present appeal will meet with hearty
response from all our people. Let all who can
purchase tickets for this evenings entertain
ment.

Port DenOSit Affairs.
Port DEPOSIT, Nov. 18th, 1874



Every thing is very quiet here at present,
though business appears to be quite brisk. Our
town was supplied with vessel load of tine
fresh oysters, which arrived on Saturday last,
aud the vessel is still lying at our wharf.
SUDDEN DEATH.
On Friday evening young lady, named Miss
Ella Todd, from Aberdeen, Hartford county, came
up on the four-lwenty train to visiteomc friends
here. She was taken extremely i'll on Saturday
and died carly on Sunday morning. On Mon
day morning her remains were taken back to
Aberdeen. AS | stood ut the depot and observ-
ed the countenances of the friends and relation
OF this young lady, especially the heart stricken
mother she gazed on the coffin that contain
ed her loving daughter, and as she sobbed re.
clining on the arm of the Borrowing father, my
own feelings were sensibly touched. just to
think how suddenly their beloved child had been
taken from them, and | tried to imagine some
near and dear relative thus suddenly taken from
me. Surely it is no wonder we weep, when
thus stricken, but from it we learn not to set
too much store on things of earth, but rather
lay up for ourselves treasures In Heaven, where
there is no sickness or death.
The Rev. Mr. Brindlc, one of the former pas
tors Of the NJ. L. Church here, made the church
Il pastoral visit on Sunday evening, and preach
cd II very eloquent and excellent sermon to Il
crowded church He is particular tavorite
with our Port friends, and highly esteemed for
his deep picty and upright walk.
