tenth anniversary of their marriag &c.
The presents were quite numerous

converse and left at an early hour,
wishing the pastor and wife many
happy years in the future.

President Hayes is right. The
great trouble is over" There will
be malcontents in both sections :;
there will be wiseacres in the north
laboring to demonstrate the consti-
tutional right of the Federal Gov
eminent to protect the negro by the
bayouet; there will be roughs in
the South to waylay him, to buse
him, to destroy his churches and
his schoolhOuses. But the way to
conquer Eden is not by the sword

LETTER from Madras, giving some
account of tho famine prevailing there
and of the operations of the relief
measures, mentions that day nursery
for children has been started in one of
the divisions of Madras, and that eff,
forts will be made to organize others.
As an evidence of the need of such in.
stitutions, it is alleged that in one
division alone there are four thousand
starving children. If each division of
Madras contains as many, there is an
aggregate of forty thousand starving
children in the province. This dread.
iul fact will serve to give our readers
some notion of the character of the
famine against whose destructive pow,
or the British and Indian governments
and British private philanthrophy are
struggling with all their might.
