A WoMAN's MOVEMENT THAT
PROMISES TO DO MUCH GooD.-Mrs.
Alice Dutton Ballou has organized in Bos-
ton a society called the Business Women's
Mutual Benefit Association. Its purpose
is to provide relief fund for cases of sick
ness among working-women; to provide a
fund for small loans without interest to
members in case of extreme need, and to
provide means of burial for deceased mem
bers. The annual dues are to be So q
year. Members who are sick receive Sc a
week during their sickness. provided
it does not exceed six consecutive
weeks $50 are appropriated for the
burial expenses of deceased member. In
order that the treasury may not be ex-
hausted by the demands of those suffering
from trifing illness, no benefit is paid DUR
ing the first week of sickness, nor is any
paid in cases of illness arising from child
birth. Those who wish to aid the und err
taking without seeking any personal return
from it are invited TO- become honorary
members, paying 50 year. A number
of other ladies are associated with Mrs.
Ballou as officers of the society. 1t seems
to us an excellent undertaking, and we
trust it will be entirely successful.

the body sinks away in disease. How
often have we seen the soul struggling up
ward while the body was sinking downward;
the body dying, the soul growing more
alive! How often do men and women
mellow and sweeten as they advance in
years, rising to larger views, more liberal
aims How often, while the body grows
older, does the spirit seem to grow younger,
tresher, more active! Goethe said of
Schiller, HE went on, and on, and on, for
thlrty-eight years, never resting, never
ceasing from new activity and fresh ac-
complishments." Meantime, the body of
Schiller was steadily decaying.

spirit of Claiming, of Schiller, of John
Quincy Adams, of a great multitude OF
famous men, and men not famous, who |
continue to ascend as long as they live. |
If the souls of our friends do not live
after death, we should not, think, be
made to mourn over them as we do, to

MR.. EDWARD SOTHERN.-Thi dis
tinguished eccentric comedian appears at
the Richmond Theatre next week, begin
ing on Monday with his celebrated per on
alton of Lord D,mdreary. During the
week we are to enjoy, in addition, his
equally famous renditions of Sam and
David Ga,rick. There is no artist on the
English or American stage of higher
reputation than Mr.. Sothern. AS an
eccentric comedian we do not think
he. has peer. Lord Dundreary is a
part which his genius has created, and
made famous in every English-speaking
country. Ofall histrionic delineations it is
the most humorous, and diverting, and in.
evitably conyulses with uproarous laugh
ter every auditor. The most confirmed
hypochondriac forgets that he is ill. Mr..
Sothern is equally entertaining as Sam,
and in "David Garrick" illustrates his
versatility by a performance of classical
beauty. q

MISS CARLoTTA LIE CLERcQ. Will
kie Collins play of the New Magdalen'
was produced at the Theatre last night,
with Miss LIE Clercq in the role of Mercy
Mer7ck. This effective and rarely beauti-
full dramatizaton Of the novel was made
by Wilkie Collins for Miss LIE Clercq, and
first brought out in this country at Mr..
Daly's New York Theatre. 1t was re-
hearsed under the supervision of Mr.. Col
Inns, who in person held the book, acting
as stage director, and there fully i'm
parting his own conception of the
parts performed. The play very faithful
ly preserves the cardinal features of the
novel, and demonstrates that Mr.. Collins
is as successful playwright, as novelist.
Of all the faculties Of his mind none is so
conspicuous and impressive as his con-
st,ucticeness, his wonderful harmonizing
of the most widely divergent plot. The
play of New Magdalen" is admirable in
Its dramatic construction, smooth,
prompt and graceful in its action,
characterized by perfect unity, and pro-
foundly absorbing in its plot. Miss LIE
Clercq in her rendition of Mercy Merrick
discloses histrionic power of the highest
order, and gives us personation which
becomes lifelong memory-a living,
vital reality. She reveals with anguishing
fidelity the very heart-pants the inmost
soul of poor, crushed Mercy Merick
whose glimpses of happiness harsh fate
seems about to quench in absolute misery.
In her portrayal there is the graphic con-.
seriousness of wrong, the lofty aspiration for
an ameliorated life, an intense longing for
purer happiness /; making in its entirety
one of the strongest, loveliest, genius
stamped presentments we have ever wit
messed. Over the whole personation she
diffuses the glow Of her genius, and makes
an artistic creation great and living. Her
Mercy MerTick is noble contribution to
the dramatic art, and would alone stamp
her as an artistic of the finest power.
We wish we had the space to say all
that possesses us on this subject. We
urge all our citizens to witness the per-
Torrance tonight, as failure to do so
involves the loss on their part of one of the
greatest dramatic pleasures we have ever
known.

CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO RAILROAD.
The Charlottesville Jeffersonian says of
this valuable national thoroughfare !:
"There is no railroad in the commonwealth
that can or will do more to bring trade,
prosperity and wealth to the whole state
than the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad.
1t is the great highway to the West, and
should be the policy Of the Virginia peo-
pie to give to it their hearty
support and cooperation. To cripple
its trade by building up rival roads
that will convey its freight and trade to an
other state instead of Richmond is poll
icy of the most suicidal character. We
therefore hope that no representative in the
Legislature from this section of the state,
will for moment hesitate to vote against
all propositions that will cripple or impair
thetrade and prosperity Of the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railroad"
POLICE CoURT.-The following cases
were disposed Of in this court to-day:
