Card of Thanks.

The Sisters of Charity, of the House
of Providence, with heart filled with
gratitude, tender their most sincere
thanks to the generous people of Van
couver, whose proverbiaI liberality has
been exceled during the three days Of
the Fair held on the 18th, l4th, and
18th, of this month.
Although times are dull, commerce is
in depressed state, and need every
where; the citizens and army united in
one generous accord, to help, feed and
clothe the eighty destitute orphan chill
drcn now in the Sisters care, and do
mated during the Fair, the astonishing
sum of one Mousand ami ffy three dol
lars ami serenty,frc cents. (Sl,O53.75).
The courteous Mr. Eddings deserves
our special thanks for his generosity in
giving free use of his commodious Hall.
The prayers of the grateful Orphans
and Sisters will daily ascend to the
throne of the Almighty; and, no doubt,
will come back upon the heads of the
bencfactors in shower of Heavens
choicest bencdctiOns for the spiritual
and temporal; for true it is, she who
giveth to the poor lcndeth unto the
Lord"

commend liz to institutions like the lot
terry, the grab-bag, sh-ponds, rallies
and the like gambling institutions of a
protested high toled character. A
series OF evenings devoted to these
things will do more to corrupt the com
munity than any other evil institution
in the same length of time. Parents
and all others who value the purity of
the young, who would see them honest,
dignitied and just to themselves and to
all men, should discountcnanc all gam
bling whether openly i'll the gambling
den, covertly on TIE hay mown in til,
barn, in private office, or in the name
of benevolencc and charity under the
guise Of religion and holy sanctity
They are all alike, evil, only evil, and
that continually.

Small is the sum that IS required to
patronize a newspaper, amply reward
ed is its patron, care not how humble
and unpretending the gazette which
he takes. 1t is next to impossible to
fill "a sheet with printed matter without
putting into it something worth the
subscription price. Every parent whose
son is away from home at school,
should supply him with newspaper.
| well remember what marked differ
encs there was between my schoomates
