ing eight and nine pounds have been taken
during the week. w. D. Hoard and Mr..
May, of TT. Atkinson, came into town Fri
day night, well supplied with fishing

rather unfavorable we think there may yet
be chance for any others who want to
cast line.

Rev. J. L. Dudley has been in town the

Mrs. Colt Is very i'll, at the house of her

sidered near her end for some days, but
she yet lives suffering greatly.
Spelling was held at the Methodist
church last Tuesday night. These were
very few spectators present, but the usual
number of "spellers. Those present say
it was better than the previous ones, as
more time was given to spelling and less
to discussion. They are to be continued

Five gentlemen from Chicago arrived
here Monday night, the Oath, on a fishing

1heir own men, and as we cannot control the eIe-
ments We must simply submit to them, that's all,
ICheers.l Napoleon ! could neither submit nor
control them on his retreat from MoscoV and
hence they bu led him and his Splendid army

from the sad tate Of this noble man.

sense Of the meeting:
Resolved, By the labor leagues OF the District

Reautiful Painting.

Mrs. Colburn, one of the most talented artists
in our city has now on exhibition az the bookstore
Of Mr.. Choate, in Vernon row, q most exquisite

tful golden haired child has arisen from bed, and

teriously filled stocking which hangs from the
mantei She has already gathered in her arms
the precious Dolly which, being too large 70 md

upon the chair beneath. Utter happiness and
wonder seem to contend for possession in the ex.

goleen curls which circles the forehead CLEANS
out brightly In the morning sunbeans Across
the back OF the chair the bright garments Of the
child are carelessly thrown, giving dash Of rich
color to the picture, while through me TindoW
the snow.laden boughs are tipped with the deli.
cate pink hue Of the morning sunlight. The

through an unseen window, the open crate and

Religion. Service. At Ii, First Church.

Religious Services at ths First onurcn.
The second Of the series Of religious meetings
under the auspices of the Presbytery OF Wash
ington city was held last evening at the First
Presbyterian church, (Dr. Sunderland's,) with a
vary encouraging attendsnce and with deep
and earnest feeling pervsdIng the assembly.
The Rev. Messrs. Noble, BittiDger, Sunderland
and others participated in the meeting. The
Rev. DR.. Chester. OF the Metropolitan church,
Capitol Hill, preached an impressive discourse
from Luke IVA; "What man Of you having
an hundred sheep, II he lose zone Of them doth
not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness
and go AFTER that which Is lost until he find It."
The doctrine Of the discourse was considered IN
der the following heads: ...
]. The parallels of Christ set forth the place Of
salvation for lost sinners, showing what God does
for them and what they are to do themselves.
2 In this parable, as everywhere, God is repre-
sented as FIRST seeking the sinner because he is
lost, and from His own infinite love OF His
creatures, conceived for them before the ,founda-
tion Of the world.
weak and miserable, however destitute and help
less, Christ, as the Great Shepherd, bears homo
the sinful souls upon HIS own shoulders, and
4. The dreadful doom Of the lost sinner whom
ChTist does not bring home TO His fold. Those
points were set forth in great simplicity affection
and tenderness, making deep impression. They
were strikingly illustrated by the account Of q
young man who, having gone astrsy, went out
into grove and sat down TO DeWail his condition.
Just as he had exclaimed TO himself, "Oh, that
had some powerful friend to put bis arm about
me and lit me out ef the pit Of misery into which
have sunken ~ he heard the blesting Of lamb
in the thicket. Rising from his seat he took the
stray one In his arms, and bearing it to neigh
boring field, restored It to the dam. On his return
these words Of the parable came 10 his mind, and
committing his soul TO Christ he found then and
there pardon and peace and eternal life.
When from such incidents proud men shall
learn wisdom, they, too, will cry for deliverance
and Christ will save them,
The third IN this series Of meetings will be held
IN the Westminster Church, Rev. Mr.. Bittinger's,)
South Washington, next week, Monday evening
at 7:30 O'Clock. The con gregattons connected with
the Presbytery and all others are earnestly in
vited TO attend.
