Chuck-the boys called him Chuck for
short-was hardly what you would call a
hard case, bat he was fond of joke and
seldom cared at whose expense it was per-
petrated. Returning to New Bedford, on
the steamer was a large party who had
been over to attend "A camp-meeting at
Martha's Vineyard. 1t was Sunday even
ing, and, naturally enough, number of
passengers gathered in the ladies cabin for
divine service. Into this crowd Chuck had
insinuated himself just as the hymn My
soul be on thy guard " was given out. The
crowd joined with will, and had sung to
the end of second line. Ten thousand
foes arise" when a shrill female voice was
heard Hold on, you've started it too
hight There was a dead pause for few
seconds, broken at length by the good-na-
tured suggestion of Chuck. Suppose you
start ut five thousandl" Amid the general
laughter that followed Chuck retired and
the meeting came to an end.

LONDON, March IL, 1875.
| have returned here, after "a sujourn
of more than week in the town Of
Halifax, to find London in first-clasS
sensation about Moody aud Sankey,
who are preaching and singing every
night to $1,000 people to the great dis
gust OF theatels, mu-iC nails, negro
ministries, ana other rival entertain
ments. | shall, no doubt, have some
thing To write about these revivali-ts
before long, but for little time may
safely trust that the London papers
will keep you advised concerning their
proceedings, for have something
more to say about HALIFAX, from which
place, rather than London, the follow
ing notes may be properly dated. Yet,
so far as the revivalisls are concerned
| may say that on every railway ana
in every mouse in the provinces / have
visited, | found them the chief topic
of conversation. Inuumerable stories,
endless gossip, have they set a1iuat.
The best story | heard about them re-
lated to u BRIEF aud pointed interview
said to have occurred between Moody
and Professor NJ, of Trinity College.
Dublin. 1t was railway carriage
The Professor has not much vital piety,
but of course Is &C oDiciO religious
man. While he sat reading his paper
he was pointed out TO Moody rs "a good
subject, and the revivalist moved over
to him, and placed his hand on the
Professors knee and asked sOlemnly
Are you saved ?'' The surprised
Professor passed his hand through his
hair and replied: ayes, oh, yes
| but-but it was such devilish near
scrape that | don't brag much about
it,
Among the notes l took of railway
| conversations are the following:
They ito say Sankey used to be q
negro minstrel -
" l don't see why he's any the WORSE
| for that ~
-" And that he's now AN agent fol
an American harmonium. \ friend
of mine says that one night AT Liver
pool, when his usual harmOuium
didn't arrive, Il man offered him an
! English one, but Saukey wouldn't ac
cept it., aud didn't sing at all thai
! night.n
non, they tell all manner of stories
| THERE'S no doubt that crime has large
! ~ decreased wherever they hhv,
| beeu.n
Well, the men are making "A lot o
money, and 40 mistake. Why, the
publishers are paying Moody heavy
sums just to write "a few lines for ole
tracts and books, 50 that they may
hawk them at lre doors as edited bS
Moody ana sell HEN 10y thousands. }

From the Philade puia Business Adrocate.l
1t is safe to say that an army Of not less
than one hundred thousand men, engaged
in the iron and coal industries Of Penn
sylvania, are now idle and not compul-
soIily, but bynluse they conceive their
labor to be worth more than capital will
pay for it. " As rough calculation. there
are to-day nearly 100000 persons and
nearly $500, 900, 900 of capital lying idle
in Pennsylvanil-simply because OF the

what would be their average wages-say
81 per day-and we have loss on the la
borers part of 100000 per day. On the
part of capitalists we have to compute the
interest on the money Invested, not calcu-
latng for any deterioration of works and
material by disuse.n
