SOME CHURCH FIGURES.

When Rev. j. B. Mann assumed the
pastorate of Union NJ. Z. Church, two
years ago, the debt upon that edfice was
about S2300. During these two years
the receipts from all sources were S5,-
954.96, aid the payments as follows:
paid to pas or, $l905; to sexton, $500;
to Presiding Elder, $2l6; for the Bishops,
SIS; for communion wine, $24; for
rent of parsonage, 1852; paid in loan
association, $500; miscellaneous expen-
ses, $777. 80; total, S4l49.S0. The bal
ance $1sO5.07, was applied TO the extin-
guishment of the floating debt, reducing
it to the sum of S5O4.93. The payments
to be made to the loan association will
continue nearly five years, and will
amount to about $500, making the total
debt Of the church $1094.93. As nearly
one half of this is to be paid in early
monthly installments, with five Years 10
run, it may be safely said that the church
is in good financial condition. The
spi ritual condition of the churrh is also
good, and though the membeishi is not
as large as it has been, it is Of ali i'm
proved character. the pastors "weeding

THREE FINE PICTURES.

The Jefferson Democratic Club rooms
are now adorned with three of the finest
specimens of the Photographic art ever
seen in this city. They are portraits of
President Thomas jefferson, after whom
the club Is named, and OF Senators Bay
ard and Salisbury, of this State. The
pictures of the two Senators, besides
being splendid specimens Of photography
a'e remarkably life-like and accurate,
while the picture of Jefferson is consid-
cred by competent Judges to be the best
likeness of the "father of Democracy"
ever exhibited In this city. Before being
taken to the club room these pictures
were exhibited in the windows of
Thomas & Co.'s book store aud Green
man Il Co. 5 wall paper store, and at
tracted general public attention and ad-
miration, The artists we're Messrs. Gar
rett & Nones, of Philadelphia, who ez-
pended their b st efforts On these pictures
and feel a commendaole pride al the sue
cessful results with which their labors
were attended.

The relations of the Christian
Church to popular amusements engaged
the attention of the Central Church Lit
erary Association of H Hamilton, Ont, one
night last week. The Rev. Mr.. Lyle
maintained that "all the lower animals
up to man enjoyed amusements," and
consequently tbs theatre was not to be
condemned simply because 1t was abu-
SEQ as well as used. "Because dress is a.
bused, demanded the reverend debater,
"sh0uld we discard it altogether?" This
argument from analogy seemed to make
a strong impression upon his auditors,
many of whom blllshed and murmured.
"Let US keep on wearing clothes and go
ing to theatres"

PAY OF THE New YORK POLIcB.-
Judge Donohue, ofNsw York, has issued
mandamus against the police board of
that city, requiring them to pay to the
police the 20 per cent. reserved from
their salaries in JANUARY under the con-
strllctlon OF the law of 1866, which has
been resisted by the inspectors, captains
and palrolmen of the force. Judge DON
ohue says: GA careful examination Of
the point in dispute leads me to the same
conclusion as that reached by the corpo-
ration counsel, that the act under which
the deduction was made has been re-
pealed." This repeal was efiertDd when
the charter Of 1873 went into effect.
Under this decision the New York police
will continue to draw their original pay
while the charter remains in force,

The New Court House Bill.


The bill for the removal of the seat of
Justice to Wilmington, reported bv the
Senate Committee, passed by that body,
and now before the House, expressly iimits
the cost OF land and buildings to S70,.
900. Forbids the Levy Court to borrow
or spend for both of those purposes more
thau that amount. Requires the building
to be erected by contract; the land to
cost the county nothing. These provi-
sions cover all the expenses of buildings
for every purpose, viz: Court House,
County Offices and Jail for the Temporal
ry detention of prisoners. The county
will retain its New Castle jaIl. In all
these particulars the bill is clear and ex-
plicit.
That the $4,000 will be amply suffi-
cient we are prepared to proUe by the tes-
timony of experienced and responsible
builders.
The bill takes moay from the Levy
Court in respect to the proposed build
inas in Wilmington, the power it now
has as to the buildings in New Castle, to
expend money without limit.
Should the Levy Court, after the pas
sage of this bill, spend or engage to spend
one dollar more than $40, ,0O0for land and
buildings in Wilmington, they would
violate the law, and be instantly restrain
ed by the injunction of the Chancellor.
