The Weather.


 The merchants found all quiet on Chapel street, comparatively speaking, last Saturday evening" It was the fifth successive rainy, sloppy, slippery Saturday evening. Last weeks weather was very suitable weather for taking inventory. The sidewalks were again glaring with ice and the slipperiness was double refined, owing to the wet, and there were in consequence about 1000 slip up and tumbles,-at least so it is estimated by relia- ble, observing members of the police force. Those on duty in the suburbs reported an ex- travagant number of s'sit downs'' on the watery, iced pavements, and refrained from even smiling at these tableaux, out of re- spectful consideration for the feelings of the victims, and in due deference to their posi- tions as preservers of the public peace. Ag- gravated slip ups are reported such as where the victim smashed in his fall bottle of whiskey, another basket of eggs, another a looking glass. Notwithstanding this con6i- tion of the sidewalks, over one thousand three hundred persons turned out and wit messed the Buffalo Bill show, and perhaps 600 were at Atkinson's stJollities'' There were during the evening several narrow es- capes from being run down by teams, which befell citizens walking in the middle of the streets, the sidewalks being so treachereus. The ladies who slipped and fell on the walks, and there are quite 8 number, are al- rdded to but briefly out of regard for the woes they experienced in the numerous im- mediate offers of aid and sympathy rendered by sympathetic citizens.

NorthChurch.

The Sabbath afternoon Bible and Sunday school service at the North church increases in interest and attendance. The morning sermon on the need of sending the gospel to the heathen in foreign lands was lesson full of instruction. The annual contribution which followed amounted to $240. Intro ducing the subject of the Bible lesson, pr. Hawes very aptly alluded to the heathen at home growing up among us who need plain instruction on the subject of religion. He instanced the case of young girl seven years old in . respectable family who had never heard the name of Jesus. Another case of young man in the army who wanted to be Christian He had been well educated in Q Christian family and had received Sunday school instructions. Mir. Smith, the chaplain, who afterward died at the mission in Africa Co which he gave his life, said to the young soldier: Act as when reporting Go your commanding officer for or ders As you obey them implicitly, so go to Christ, take his orders and obey them. His answer ever after to inquiry whether he was n Christian, was, Yes, am under orders.

A young man, the son of New York mer- chant, left New York on the owl train last night for Boston, in charge of a captain who was in his fathers employ. During the trip mp the young man strayed into the smoking car where he was soon taught some of the tricks that he never learned at his mothers apron string by three three-card monte men, who inveigIed him into the game and Aeeced him out of 6 valuable gold watch and $20. The monte men, after working their racket, got of at Stamford, and their youthful victim came on to Norwalk, where he alight- ed and gave information to the police- One of the sharpers is described as large man wearing side whiskers, and another a small man with 8 clean shaven face. This was the young mans first trip away from home, and if he lives long enough his first experience may prove a valuable lesson to him.

The Sacred Concert.

Another Arrest of Jubilee Singers at
 Peck's Grand Opera House-BOnds Fur
 nIshed.
 Last week sacred concert for the benefit of Zion A. Nj. E. church was advertised to be given Sunday evening in Peck's Grand Opera House by band of colored jubilee singers. The question then arose as to tho probability of their arrest under orders of Prosecuting Attorney Pickett. The matter
 was set at res. last evening by an order to the police to ascertain if the concert was ssto
 be given, and when they found out this fact
 to report to headquarters. There was not
 large audience in the hall, perhaps about six
 hundred. As soon as the, troupe appeared
 and began to sing word was sent to the police office and there the warrants had to be. made out, causing considerable delay. It was not until the singers were giving their last piece that the warrants were ready to be served. Soon as they finished they, with Clark Peck, the proprietor were escorted to the police ofice Beside Mir. Peck the fol- lowing members of the troupe were arrested: Henry Richardson, of Carolina county, Va Alexander Lightfoot and Richard Robertson, of Norfolk, Va Jones Allen, of Richmond, Va; Ransom Thornton, of Evansville, Va. They were charged with taking part in @ concert without 6 UC6uS0, Wu1I0 H1I IT 0Ch WhS charged with permitting concert without 8 license E. Gilbert Austin gave bonds for MT. Peck's appearance before the City court, and Mr. Peck in turn gave bonds for the singers and they were then released. Their cases will be called in the City court this morning.
 At the Church of the Messiah.
 Two interesting and instructive discourses
 were preached yesterday at the Church ot
 the Messiah, by the pastor, Rev. Mir. Tough
 ton The morning topic was ''The Radicals; |"
 the. evening subject, 'sThe Conservatives. ;
 In treating of the latter, MT. Houghton
 dwelt upon the false sentimentalism con-
 nected with conservatism in the realm of re- ligion; of false surrender, that is an abso- lute surrender to spiritual and unseen inhu ences; and the tendency of conservatives to selfshness and uncharitableness. The speaker
 claimed that there was a golden mean, a happy medium between the two classes which should be sought for and attained. In referring to the labors of Rev. MT. Ham mond, the evangelist, who was recently in | this city, the speaker deprecated his mode of ! work, and cited a statement from that gen. l tleman with reference to the condition of some of the children who had become con | verted while he labored here. The statement I was that these children became so absorbed
 in religious matters that they almost lost l their identity. This he characterized as wiekedly pernicious. In closing, MT. Hough- ton exhorted his hearers to cultivate their
 religious faculties and not be swayed unduly by their emotions, but by using their powers in rational and symmetrical manner de. velop and beautify their lives, and thus
 benefit themselves and all with whom they associated
