GAN APPLE DUMPING SoCIABLE" Is the
latest novelty which one the OF colored peo-
Iles'churches of New York seeks to Tighten the
burden OF oppressive indebtedness. Apple
dumplings have never been considered very
Sociable things. but when pressed into the
cause OF promotion OF evangelical religion,
there Is prospect that they may become as
useful as they are toothsome. "A Cake
walk" is another pecuniary means OF grace,
announced for the holiday season by one or
two colored lions IL must not be supposed
that the cake II expected To walk of on its
own account. Far otherwise. A large cake
styleof walking. A number of colored ladies
enter into competition. Competent Judges
are appointed 10 declare who is the most
truly graceful pedo strian, and she who is TN ,
victor walks OFF with the cake. The proceed
from the holding of these entertainments Of
ten afford more substantial relief to exhausted
treasures than is generally the result of fairs
or concerts.

Mr.. STURGEON is apt at illustration, as
the following shows: A raw countryman
having brought his gun 20 the gunsmith for
repairs, the latter, having examined IL, said:
"HOur gun il in very WORKOUT, ruinous,
good -for-nothing condition; what sort OF re-
pairing do you want for it?'' "Wela," said
the man, al don't see as / can do with any
thing less than a new stock, lock and barrel:
the smith, "you had better have a new gun
altogether" "Ah," was the reply, al never
thought Of that; and IL strikes me that's Just
what do want A new stock, lock and bar
rel why, that's about equal TO a new gun, and
that's about what will have" Just the sort
OF repairing mans nature requires. The Old
nature cast aside as a complete wreck and
good for nothing and n new one Unmarried.
