a wealthy gentleman who gives very
literally to the poor and never suf-
fers needy person to leave his door
unfed and uncared-for. Two years
ago his tender sympathies were arous-
ed for family of eight persons who
were in most distressing circumstances
and needing help desperately. He
really supported the family until last
spring when one of the daughters
died of consumption; the funeral ex-
penses were paid and then as the
family moved to a different part of
the city the gentleman had no oppor-
tunity for seeing them, but heard
from them about once a week, when
they sent up large basket to be fill
ed with eatables. About three weeks
after the girl died message came to
him that the mother was dead and if
he would be kind enough to send
money to bury her it would be thank
fully received. He gave them the
money and thought no more about
it. In about three weeks another
note came saying that two children of
the family were dead and the surviv-
ing members would be under the
greatest obligations if he would send
money sufficient to bury the remains.
He again did as requested, and has
done 80 each time he was asked by
this most unfortunate family, for, one
by one, six of them had departed this
life. Last week he received intelli-
gence that one of the surviving was
dead and the "stricken and broken
hearted mourner" desired money
wherewith to deposit the remains in
the ground. The gentleman came to
the conclusion that he had never be-
fore heard ofsuch sad, sad case, and,
thinking that perhaps the ''mourner
needed some comfort, spent whole
day in finding her, az she had de-
ceived him about her residence. When
be walked into the house he saw the
entire family, everyone Of whom he
thought he had buried, sitting laziiy
about large fire bought with his
money. They were remarkably live
Unlocking corpses. He is now SO dis
gusted with his heartless performance
of burying live people that he VOWS
he will supply the means for no more
funerals until a medical examination
of the corpse has been made in his
presence.
Everyone is praising the eloquence
and superb oratory displayed at the
Women's Temperance Convention; the
speeches were extra ordinary for their
depth and sound sense and their
effect has been to entirely revolution
ize the opinions of Baltimoreans in
regard to the capacities and minds of
women. This, more than any other
large city, is freer from strong minded
women, and the citizens did not know
what to expect; they found these,
however, perfectly refined, educated
and charming ladies, but who would
not hesitate to assist from the very
gutter with their own hands soiled,
blasphemous drunkard, and endeavor
to help him to better things. The
meetings were crowded every day and
evening, and some of the most emil
nent divines and speakers doubtless
learned useful lessons. PICKENs.

grant a loan of 81, 100000 for the pur-
pose Of working some of the coal fields
