Charitable Entertainment.

Miss Molie Binford, one of our most
amiable and accomplished young la
dies, has for some days past labored
industriously at the task of getting up
an entertainment for charitable pur-
poses. TO say that she has succeeded
will not be news to those who know
how earnestly and faithfully Miss
Mollie works at whatever she under
takes. She has procured the assist
ance of our leading local artists and a
number of the young lady and gentle
man vocalists are named in the bills.
Miss Binford has evinced excellent
taste in arranginglthe programme of
the evening, and what with the Ia
bleak, recitations, statuary, and vocal
and instrumental music which she has
judicially interspersed in the cast, we
shall be surprised if all who attend are
not delighted. The entertainment
will take place at Turn-Verein Hall on
Tuesday evening next, and as Miss
Mollie is the moving spirit, the object
charity and the tickets but fifty cents,
we expect the hall will be crowded.

A Story Told of Rowland HIIl.

Some one or other had given him a
hundred pounds to send to an en-
tremely poor minister; but, thinking
it was too much to send him all ut
once, he sent him five pounds in II
letter, with simply these words inside
the letter, More to follow" In a
few days time the good man had an
other letter by the post, and letters by
the post were rarities in those days.
When he opened it there was five
pounds again, with just these words,
"And more to follow A day or two
after there came another and still the
same words, "And more to follow"
And so it continued twenty times, the
good man being more and more as
founded at these letters coming thus
by post, with always the sentence,
"And more to follOw.n Now, every
blessing that comes from God is sent
in just such an envelope, with the
self-same message, "And more to fol-
low." 81 forgive your sins, but there
is more to follow" ~ have helped
you to old age, but there's still more
to follow" ~ will bring you to the
brink of Jordan, but there's more to
follow. In the midst of that river, as
you are passing into the world of spir-
its, my mercy shall continue with
you; and when you land in the world
to come, there shall still be more to
follow" Light is still sown for the
righteous and gladness for the upright
in eart.-Sprgeon.

Great Picture Sale.

Last evening Jones & Noyes' auc-
tion store was crowded with picture
fanciers, anxious to purchase from the
elegant collection of oil chromos now
being sold on account of Mr.. Currier,
of San Francisco. Noyes did the sell
ing, and although they went cheap, it
never rufficd his temper but he fol-
lowed the programme as coolly as
though he had got premium of fifty
per cent. on retail prices. We were
pleased to see so many of our citizens
gratifying their aesthetic tastes at such
small cost, and expect to see their
homes resplendent in the bright beau
ty of their new art treasures on our
next visit. The sale commences
again tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock,
when some of the famous pictures of
the collection will be sold without re-
serve to the highest bidder. Among
the finest pictures we observed u
Scene in the Scottish Highlands, Lake
Maggicre, Huguenot Lovers, Suburbs
of Rotterdam, Evening on the Rhine,
View on the Hudson, the Catskill
Mountains, Lake Geneva, Tomb of
Napoleon, the Immaculate Mary, Tit
ian's Daughter, Morning Toilet, the
Sleeping Beauty, Happy Days of Louis
XIV, Winter in Holland, Cattle in
the Woods, Monks in the Wine Gel
lar, Queen of the Vineyard, Parole of
Honor, Winter Forge, After the
Shower, Castle on the Danube, Romeo
and Juliet, Winter in Holsten. These
are copies of famous oil paintings, and
are the productions of the most cele-
brated English, American, French
and italian chrome presses. Among
the finest of the French chromos, we
noticed pair, the Venetian Mother
and the Venetian Navigator, which
were perfect gems-peculiarly bright
in color and elegant in design. These
pictures are all framed in gilt, ebony
and walnut frames Of great richness,
and are carefully vanished as pre-
servative. We advise all who desire
to enrich their residences by choice
pictures to attend this sale and crafty
their taste at a very low figure.

We had the pleasure of meeting, at

Messrs. w. Nelson, VIM. a. Nelson
and Prof. Schumacher of Guatemala,
who are on their way to Europe, via

them a pleasant journey.

Prof. Steen, the mind-reader, gave
private seance yesterday afternoon
ut the Lafayette Hotel to few visit
ors. Some things he did were quite
remarkable, but we ascribe them more
to his keen judgment of physiognomy
than to any higher power. He has a
powerful perception and can follow
mans eye like hawk. In this way
we believe his mind-reading can be
explained. Parts of the seance we
cannot reasonably explain, but as it
was in daylight and above board, we
leave each spectator to ascrlbe the
results to any known or unknown
cause. He says he can do even great
er things next Tuesday evening before
a crowd, and we leave the public to
judge by that.

Charles, Duke of Burgundy, being
slain in battle by the Swiss at Nancy,
A. d. 1477, had n jewel of very great
value, which, being found about him,
was sold by a soldier to priest for
crown in money; the priest sold it for
two crowns; afterward it was sold for
seven hundred forms; then for twelve
thousand ducats; and last of all for
twenty thousand ducats, and set in the
Pope's triple-crown, where it is to be
seen at this day. But Jesus Christ is
n commodity of far more value-"bet-
ter than rubies," saith Solom0n-and
all the things that may be desired are
not to be compared to him; he is that
Pearl of Price which the merchant
purchased with all that ever he had.
No man can buy such gold too dear.
Joseph, then precious jewel of the
world, was far more precious, had the
Ishmaelitish merchants known so
much, than all the balms and myrrhs
that they transported; and so is Christ,
as all will yield who know him.

THE BROKEN RING.
BY ZOE ZELLA.

" With this ring do 1 wed thee," he placed on
her hand
The daintiest, brightest, wee plain golden
band.
81 'Tls for better, or worse, in life, until death,
1 will love thee, my wife, as long as Ive
breath.
The wedding was o'er, yet the heart of the
bride
Gave back no response to the one by her
side;
He had sought the fair hand, nor thought OF
the love
That's more to a woman than worlds up
above.
Years passed and the jewel its luster had
lost,
lie had tarnished the gem and forgotten its
cost,
But the woman's fair face in beauty and
pride
Covered over with roses tho wound she
would hide.
The mask was part of the cross taken up:
She'll drink life's bitter draught as she
would joys cup.
The longing for love thatwll enter her heart
VIII steal through each fibre and crush
every part.
Until worn and weary the cross is laid down,
Then Love, the Eternal, will give her the
crown.
Blind world call her happy, think she was,
and is now,
All! the ring has been broken, and SO has
the VOW.

I remember reading somewhere in
Grecian story of man who killed him.
self through envy. His fellow-citizens
had reared statute to one of their
number, who was a celebrated victor
i'm the public games. So strong was
the feeling of envy which this melted
i'm the breast of one of the hero's rivals
that he went forth every night in or
der, if possible, to destroy that mon
ument. After repeated efforts he
moved it from its pedestal and it fell,
and in its fall 1t crushed him. An un-
Intentional symbolic act was this,
showing the suicidal action of envy
on the soul. 1t is ever an element Of
misery, a burning coal, which comes
"hissing hot from hell. l.n-Dr. Thomas.
