The Chtldreus Home.

The annual meeting of the Directors
of the Home for FrieDdless and Desti-
tute Children was held on Tuesday
evening, and the Board of Managers
made their report for the past year,
showing that during that period there
had been q children admitted, and !
re-aamitted of these II were the child.
rem of Incorporate fathers, and II of
poor widows II who were out on trial
were returned 2 girls and boys were
indentured during the year, and of the
latter ran away and boy also ran.
away from the home total number re-
ceived into the home since its incep-
ton is 745, with an average of 90 always
at the home. No serious sickness has
occurred during the year, and only IA
deaths haveoccured since its organiza-
ton.
The average number Of children in
the Home during the past year was 20,
and has become too large for one
teacher. They have now been divided
into two classes. During the year ar
rangements were made for the recep.
ton of friendless infants, and : have
been received, one of which was return
ed to its mother and one died.
During this coming summer an effort
will be made to send the children to the
country and in this the Board expects to
be aided by q Philadelphia society.
The endowment fund has been in
creased 1000 by the will of the late
Samuel Harlan, Jr., one OF the founders
of the institution. The report further
deprecates the great falling of Of the
voluntary subscriptions, which only
amounted to Sl,769.50 last year, in
marked contrast to the S4,766 81 which
were contributed during the first yeal
of its existence. The number Of pupils
has been gradually increasing, rs are
also the expenses. The report closes by
expressing thanks for the gratuitous
services Of Drs. Negendank, Mckay
and Rile.

How are the Mighty Fallen :?
New York Letter.


The calamities connected with the re-
cent panic eliminated in the suicide OF
Thomas Grinnell. He was in good fl
nancial condition, but was the victim of
fear and anxiety to degree that drove
him mad. No one outside of Wall
street can form any idea of the intensity
of the excitement at such time The
deceased was brother of George B.
Grinnell (also leading stock operator),
and the tragedy throws shadow over a
wide circle of the highest class of socie-
tv. Other fatal consequences may be
expected, and indeed it is expected that
the Ward & Grant collapse will kill
Gen. Grant. He is much shattered and
has really suffered more than he did
during the whole war. The friends of
James D. Fish also say that this will be
the death of him. A few days ago he
considered himself worth million and
a half and was president of bank
whose stock was in demand at 1877.
Now the bank is ruined and he has been
arrested and is under bail. Considering
his time of life, it would not be surpris-
ing if these misfortunes proved fatal.
George l. Seney, being younger, has q
better chance of surviving. but he too is
q ruined man. and has ruined one bank
(the Atlantic) and has almost ruined an
other (the Metropolitan, besides the
injury inflicted on the West Side bank.
AS one views the array Of prostrate mag
mates one cannot but exclaim; Glow
are the mighty fallen?"
