THE TEMPERANCE MEETING on Friday
evening last was an indication of the in
terest that is felt in the subject, for not
withstanding the severity of the cold, the
house was well filed. The chair was
taken by Mrs. Barnard Nellis, who pre-.
sided with much suavity of manner. The
lady speakers who were expected did not
appear, and the presiding officer, who
made the fact known, stated that reliance
would have to be placed upon the clergy
and others who were present The speak
ing, therefore, was done by Rev. Mr.
Peet. Rev. Mr.. MGifert, Rev. Mr.. Tor.
rey, Rev. Mr.. st. John, Rev. Mr.. Day
and Rev. Mr.. Fisher. This was alter.
mated with very pleasant music by the
choir, led by Prof Smith, upon the or.
gan, in his usually mastery manner. The
speeches were good and commanded the
close attention of the audience COnsid.

The Reading-Room movement by the

The experiment could better be started at

be much less than now. and If unsuccess-
ful there would be something saved. An.
other consideration in favor of the post

murderer Of John Mccormick, of Mt.

evening or Saturday morning. He was
murdered for his money, as the safe, not

little with the banks and as he was worth
some one hundred thousand dollars, the
