OUR AIMS HOUSE.


Last evening by invitation of the Overseers
OF the Poor the representatives of the morning
papers visited the Aims House to see the i'm.
provements in this Institution. Since the
burning of the Stafford County Aims House,
IN New Hampshire. it was deemed advisable
to take all proper precautions here. A hy-
drant has been set within twenty feet of the
house, 1900 feet of fire-hose and ladders are
placed in building close at hand, on the in
side OF which is fire alarm box. A watch
man patrols constantly at night.
In going through the Greely Hospital a
four inch pipe was shown running through the
building up to the attic, with $50 feet of two
inch hose for each floor, and fire buckets con-
venIently disposed. Small hose is also at
hand to be applied to the faucets in the sinks.
In the Aims House proper the old hospital
Is now fitted up carefully and devoted to what
Is known as the worthy poor. Every part of
1he building however looks neat and it ap-
peared evident that the unfortunates who de-
pend upon the city for support are not neg
Iected. In the main house, wherever chance
offers, the same precautions against fire have
been taken. After the party had viewed all
the improvements nice supper was served
that was very acceptable after the cold ride
in this singing weather.
The following are the officers of this institu-
ton:
HOUSE,
Keeper and Matron-Mr. and Mrs. r. Gree
ley.
Assistant Matron-Miss Emma Dimmock.
Engineer-Mr. Charles Anderson.
HOSPITAL.
Male Nurse and Cook-Mr. and Mrs. Robert
Pennell
Female Nurse-Mies Kate Stewart.
Chairman of the Board-Mr. Isaac jackson.

Thomas Paina.

The parlors of Mrs. bennett were filled with
large and appreciative audience last evening
to listen to Mr.. Pillsbury's lecture on Thomas
Paine. Mr.. Pillsbury's paper, like all that
gentleman's productions, was carefully pre-
pared and most able. Certainly it was an
original view of the career of Thomas Paine.
Ii Mr.. Pillsbury's view is correct Paine has
been the least appreciated and the worst and
most unjustly abused man in all American
history. The following are some of the points
of Mr. Pillsbury's lecture:
Thomas Paine was born in Setford, England.
on the 29th of January, 1877. His father was
Quaker, his mother an Episcopalian. His ed
ucation at schools was of most limited ex-
tent. His religion was towards Quakerism.
His father was a stay-maker, and at thirteen
years of age his son was working with him.
When a little older Paine went TO London to
better his fortune. Not much came of the ad-
venture and soon alter he tried salorss life
on board a man-of-war. In 1868 he was APP
pointed to place in the government excise,
and was 26 years old when he entered upon
the duties of the position. In 1774 DR.. Frank
lin met Paine aud invited him to go to Amer
lea. Paine landed in Philadel phia, and was
SOON altec Installed editor OF the PennSylvanla
Magazine. But he became at once champion
OF American independence. In September,
three months after the battle of unker Hill,
he was editing the Common Sense That
work, his enemies admit, shivered the last
chains that held the colonies to the tyranny of
the British throne.
The intidelity, or atheism, of Thomas Paine
on which the pulpit has harped and the
churches screamed themselves hoarse clear
down the century, amounts to this Turning
to his Age of Reason we read: 81 believe in
one God, and no more; and hope for happi-
ness beyond this life. / believe in the ecu IL
ity Of man, and believe that religious duties
consist in doing justice, loving mercy and en-
deavoring to make our fellow creatures
happy" Two Presbyterian ministers visited
Paine when he was on his death bed and
plainly told him that those who did not be-
lieve in the Lord Jesus Christ would assuredly
be damned. He told them that he did not de-
sire to hear any of their popish stuff, and with
quiet indignation wished them a good morn
ing. Paine was man of three countries
France, England and America. Neither have
recognized him as son, but the time is coming
when they will do him honor. Neither Paine
nor Votaire was ever an atheist. Both be-
ieved and wrote in defence of the divine ex-
istence and had hopes of happiness beyond
the grave.

A Strange Phenomenon

During the bitter cold nights of the past
month or more, says the Ballowell Register
the people of London Hill have been treated
to strange sights, a locomotive headlight show
ing itself at different times near Pages ice
houses, and in the immediate vicinity of the
spot where an accident occurred in 1871 The
light has been seen by the fagman at the
Steam-mill crossing and by considerable pop
ulation of the Hill. 1t has the culver and
glare of locomotive headlight-and stands
about four feet above the track; but strangely
enough, this light disappears if any one ap-
proaches with view to investigate The su-
perstitious regard it as the light of spectre
train foreboding accidents; others look upon it
as caused by the reflection of lights, or some
optical illusion made by the peculiar condition
of the atmosphere The more matter of fact
advance the simple explanation that the lights
come from the lanterns Of workmen engaged
about the ice. Our readers may select their own
theory The strangest part of the story is that
Conductor Drews eight o'clock evening train
met with this unearthly apparition one night
recently. AS the train rounded the curve be-
low the scene of the old accident, the rays
from this spectre light swept the track, the en-.
gineer Immediately applied the brakes. and
stopped. On an attempt to investigate, the
light disappeared.

Death of a Portland Man.

Mr.. James r. Ellison, formerly of this city,
died in Boston Monday, and his body has been
brought to this city for burial. He will be re-
membered by musicians as the former presi-
dent of the Kreutzer Club. He was for long
time in the employ of the Grand Trunk rail-
way, as clerk for John Porteous. His funera

dence of Capt Albert Warwick, who was re-
lative of the deceased, all his immediate fam
lily being in England. Rev. A. Dalton of St.

consisted simply of reading of the scriptures
and prayer, and music by selected quar-

The Coolest Of the Season.

Yesterday was the codest day of the season.
At sunrise the thermometer indicated from 2
to degrees below Zero according to locality.
AT noon the mercury had risen to above. 1t
soon began to fall again, however, and at sun
set had reached zero, with decided tendency
downwards. A brisk wind was blowing from
the north, which made noses and ears wish
they wore clothes. At o'clock the mercury
had fallen below zero, and through the night
it continued to go down rapidly. AT midnight
the thermometer at Senter's jewelry store in
dicated 13 below, and thermometer hung out
of one of the upper windows in the Printers
Exchange, indicated IA below. This, we
think, is a lower point than the mercury has
touched in this city for several years.
