California, re- ports the evangelistic labors of Moody and Sankey in San Francisco as being most suc- cessful. MT.

 The zero weather was well maintained yes- terday. All about the city water pipes were frozen and the housekeepers correspondingly dismayed. Fires blaze in the streets at night like so many watch fire signals notifying midnight wanderers of toll and trouble. The foe boat scuds across New Haven bay on the wings of the wind and the steamers paddle wheels and bows suggest trip to the Arctic regions. Stonington harbor has at last yield ed to the ice king and is frozen over and the inhabitants are promenading upon it, while yesterday the steamer Narragansett lay out side the new breakwater in that harbor while the possibility of her forcing passage to her wharf was debated. In Bridgeport the Rosedale is frozen in at her dock
 All the ice houses are crowded with fine crystal blocks and the crop is very large one generally. A force of men were hard at it yesterday afternoon and last evening cutting the ice away from vessels lying at the Canal and Long wharves as precaution to save them from being forced and strained by the ice into damaging positions. The ice was cut away from number of the vessels three days ago, leaving them in open water, and yesterday they were shut in again by ice eighteen inches thick.

No milk was guaranteed to go through to New York yesterday, either by the Shepaug or the Naugatuck routes.
 The demand upon the plumbers yesterday for services to thaw out frozen water pipes was immense. Dealers say that their prem ises were alive all day long with people call ing to have cases of the kind attended to.

The lecture was full of suggest i've thought, lucidity in expression and in structiveness.
