The PRovIDENT AssOCIATIoN.-T never
was time when there was a greater call for
clothing for the Provident Association than at
present. The agent, Col. Thompson, is doing
his utmost to supply the great want. His
rooms are always open to receive contributions,
but in one short evening he can dispose of all
that is handed in for the week. The rooms in
the City Building are open every Wednesday
evening for the distribution of the clothiug.
Last evening there were upwards of forty per-
sons present, all of whom were sadly in need of
Clothing. The company was composed of men,
women and children of all ages and conditions.
When they had taken seats the scanty supply
OF clothing was inspected. There were three
coats, four or five pairs of pants, few old
vests, two or three hats, a few pairs of boots
and shoes and three shirts. This comprised all
that the agent had to give to forty or more
persons. There was not a single article
of clothing of any kind for a woman or girl,
and scarcely anything for the boys. The few
articles on hand were soon taken up BY the
men, and then the sorrowing crowd turned
their faces homeward. If some of our citizens
could only drop into these rooms on Wednes-
day evening and see the poor and needy who
collect there, they would at once make an ef-
fort to have their wants supplied in measure.
There are hundreds of articles of clothing
which have been thrown aside, that could be
sent to the rooms as we'll as not.

SCHENCK's PULMONIC SYRUP, SEA WEED Tonic.

That every appointment of this ball was ele.
CANT and the arrangements well ordered, goes
without saying, for with the committee of ar
rangements it could not be otherwise. In a
financial way it was not success, being thinly
attended, and the receipts will probably little
more than meet the expenses There were
about six hundred present last night, including
cult to say why the people should not better
sustain an entertainment like this which is of
the highest social character and is carried for
ward under the best auspices for enjoyment,
which is in the aid of mission appealing to
the sympathies of all who practice Christian
charity, and which has the prestige of years of
previous success, but the fact exists that in this
case, as at the last Centennial ball, the people
are not this winter inclined to this form of en-
tertainment. Those who attended last evening
had an excellent time. The costume of the
dancers was in general plain visiting Dress in
one instance only the characteristic dress of the
evening appearing. The tables in the supper
room were elegant, and the little girls who at
tended the supper tables were charmingly and
picturesquely attired. 1t is matter of regret
that the unselfsh enterprise of the charitable
getters-up Of this ball should have, without OBJ
vious cause, met with so poor return, but they
will have the consciousness that every thing
possible vas done by them to promote their I'M
dertaking, and that sympathy for their charity
may be manifested in other forms.
