THE Building and Loan Association.
81 When Nj heard from the subscrip ton
Mists TO the proposed Building and Loan
association were progressing finely. Over
-FOUR hundred shares of the one thousand
have been taken, with almost every one APP
preached who prefers to own residence to
renting one, taking from FIVE to twenty
shares of the stock. These institutions are
\ managed upon various plans, and the one
. now about to be organize will adopt such
rules and regulations as in the Judgment of
4 its members may best subserve to protect the
interests of its stockholders 1t will be for
\ them to decide. But this, we do know, an
association of this kind enables any one be-
longing to it to secure house in which to
live, and, as an almost universal rule, allows
him to pay for 1t 10 monthly installments as he
now pays landlords his rent. And, more
over, it seldom happens he is required to pay
any more to the association than the owner
Ut the house he may now live in, and in the
lapse of time he will own the property. 1t
is the united verdict of the world that this is
the simplest, easiest and most feasible plan
ever invented for man working upon sal
airy, or whose income is small, one who never
has enough money at one time TO put into
house, to get one The one proposed is got
ten up by such men-men who are DESTROYS
of securi3g homes which now command
from SIS to $50 per month. Anyone wish
ing to take stock can do so by leaving their
names at this office, where list has been
placed. It's hoped to hold the first meeting
at an early day, and it is desirable that all the
shares shall first be taken.

KINDER FEELINGS AT THE GRAVE.
There was something peculiarly sad
in the funeral which. took place from
No. Is Gla'nercy Park on Friday af-
ternoon. The contrast between tl,e
condition of the household now and
as it was four short years ago, was
deeply marked.
The SORROWS of Col. Pelt0p came nm.
on him in quick successioD,, and they
we're greater than he could bear. He
died from broken heart, iu the ful-
ness OF life, strong man that lie was.
First the death Of his young, beauti-
full, and most charming wife, the life
and the light of Mr.. Tilden's family.
overwhelmed him ia grief which,
seemed ineonsolable. Then came the
exposure Of his participation in ques-
tionable dispatches, which, from the
pearness of his relationship to Mr.
Tlldep, seemed at first to threaten
some injury to the fair fame of the
great statesman. This event broke of
the friendly connection which had ex-
listed between them, and virtually
banislled him from the home Of luxury
and refinemant where, with his devo-
ted wife and a daughter by former
marriage, he had experienced 90 much
unallOyed happiness. This also sepa-
rated him in great degree from his
fond mother, to whom he seemed all
IN all. So the strong man broke down
and died prematurely.
We have no disposition to palliate
the error he SO manfnlly confessed and
deeply lamented; but now, when he is
gone, people speak in bated breath Of
1.-THE accumulated SORROWS that bore him
down, aud recall with a tear his many
pleasant qualities. His great zeal in q
| good cause betrayed him into mistakes
for which he suffered with unexampled

And what is more, they charge you TOO
With wilful perjury.

How could you do the deedf
Unto the Scriptures you once TAU bit,
You should have given heed.
But it's too late for worldly good
If you should now repent,
And through your sins that Hancock mau
Will be the President.
Oh Jimmy dear, it seems so queer
You couldn't do what's right;
You ought to know President
Is not made in !. night.
And when mana IL candidate
His record must be clear. SGD.
Not for week or month or two,
But really every year.

Oh! Jimmy, Jimmy Garfield,
You took that salary, too,
You've done those things the church book

And though the tears roll down my checks
In sorrow for your sin,

For ne is sure to win.
