In reference to the estimate, it is
remarked that according to the state
ment of the Building Inspector a
saving of about $4,000 will be made so
far as it is found possible to take up
without injury the piles still standing
at the molasses wharf, which, however,
can only be determined BY trial.
ad b, A sum of $4,000 having been
granted in the Budget passed for the
present financial year for repairing the
town clock Of ChriStianSted, the same
has been sent home to Copenhagen,
and, according to a communication
from the Ministry Of Finances to the
Government of the Danish West
Indian islands dated 9TH October this
wear, has been examined by a town
clock maker of that city, according
to whose estimate the repairs will cost
2230 Kroner, while a new clock OF the
same dimensions as the old One would
cost 5,40O Kroner.
AS, however, the repairs which the
maker proposes, including among other
things the furnishing of / transparent
dial plates and two movable hands,
will render the old clock just as 1elia-
bic, good, and solid as if new, the
Ministry of Finances has caused the
repairs to be taken in hand, and in
accordance with this decision OF the
Ministry it is proposed that the fur
ther sum required, to an amount Of
$4,000, be hereby granted.
ad C. BY the ground sea on the 9TH
and 9th Of September a. c. the washing
and bathing house at the Fort OF
Frederiksted was almost entirely torn
away, a few posts, the roofing and a
small part of the outward boarding
only remaining. The cost Of the
repairs according to the acting Build
ing Inspectors estimate, laid on the
Councils table and to which the Pre-
sidency begs t%orefer, amounts to $1,000
which sum is hereby proposed to be
granted.

BELOVED BRETHREN II CHRIST,
In the consciousness Of our nifty in the
Spirit with ''all who i'll every place call
upon the name Of the Lord Jesus Christ,
both theirs and ours" and deeply thankful
for the response which has been given
by large numbers OF our tellow-belityers
throughout the world to our annual call to
united prayer-a response never so largely
given as at the beginning Of the year now
passive again very earnestly and lovingly
invite you to come together with one ac-
cord at the beginning OF the year 1884, that
we may pour out our hearts together be
fore the mercy-Seat of our adorable God
and Father, in the name OF cur Rcdeemor,
Jesus Christ.
Amid the tumults Of the nations and the
various causes OF diSQuiet and anxiety
which agit4te society at this day, together
with the uncertainty of all human prospects
and plans, it is comforting to be able to
look up together to Him whose eve sees,
and whose hand controls all events, public
and private, connected with the interests
OF nations, churches, or individuals, and to
be allowed to e%ntruSt, without fear, our
cares and wants to His wisdom from whom
we have the assurance that "He carcth for
u.s.
We ask you, then, once more, to unite
with us III doing this, whilst we very res
pectfully lay before you a few suggestions,
which, though by no means intended to
supersede the voice Of the Spirit, in par
ticular and special eases, may yet be found
useful as indicating lines Of thought in
which day by day the prayers, supplica-
lions, and th~anksgivings of Christians may
suitably be directed.
Nor let us forget very specially to thank
our gracious God for the answer to united
prayer to which some of us can bear wit
ness as having been granted during the
past year. In not a few cases it has been
found that the week of prayer has been the
beginning Of a season Of real and lasting
revival. The spirit of prayer and friendly
union thus introduced among Christians,
has led to most blessed results. The future
in its details is unknown to us; our own
lives are all uncertain; but we know that
the Lord reigneth, and in committing our
selves and all our interests into His hands
We belle We that we are taking the wisest
means of promoting, along with the peace
OF our own souls, the welfare of the whole

" Underground Russia, has exceptional means OF mforma-
tion-Ed. SPECTATOR
Shortly after the Cars return
from his visit to Copenhagen, it was
announced that he had resolved to
yield to the wishes of his people, and
grant them a Constitution. But as a
similar announcement has been made
twenty times before, only to be con-
tradicted the following week, the
news was received with general in
credulity, and it wouId be rash to af-
firm that his Majcsty's latest resolu-
ton will prove more lasting that its
predecessors. Nobody who knows
Russia would venture to say that it
will, yet circumstances point to the
probability that i may, and nothing
cam be more certain than that the
country is on the eve Of great
changes. Of this the Gar is fully
aware, and the fact may afford a clue
to the vaciIlation of his conduct.
He knows not which way to turn.
Though he went tc Copenhagen with
out any political object, his visit may
have important political consequences.
None of his Ministers were with him,
and beside subordinate members of
the Imperial household and the la
dies of the Czarina's suite, their Ma
jesties were accompanied only by
two Aides de-camp,-Obolenvy and
S~takeIberg. The opportunity was
me that might never recur, and the
Cars Danish kinsfolk took advan-
tage of it to press upon him the ne
cessity Of making concessions to his
subjects. a necessity which is per-
ceived by all who are not personally
interested in the maintenance of the
present system. They spoke to him
of the desperate state Of the finances,
of the depreciation Of the rouhle, of
the condition of the peasantry, of
whose discomfort the excuses against
the Jews are only a sign. To this.
last argument the Gar, who is a
norodnM popularity : seeker), and
breads nothing sc much as a servile
instruction, was keenly alive ; and
in the absence of opposing influences,
the counsels of his Royal relatives
produced a decided effect. 1t also

A wrinkle IN Buttons.
From the New York Mail and Eynrnss 1.

II am worked to death, y said an en-
graver yesterday. "Worked to death
making buttons of gold dollars with the
owners monogram engraved on them.
1 made,a couple of dozen such buttons
for a leading actress not long ago. The
initials We're cut deeply in the gold dol
lar, then enameled, the whole lob com
ing to 500. Very few can afford such
expensive buttons. For the ordinary
monogram we generally use ten.cent
pieces. They are smoothed, the mono
gram engraved on one side and some
fancy figure on the other. The fancy
figures are of all sorts, from bulldogs
to Greek gods. I made two comical
mes yesterday. One Represented a
sailor and soldier with O Cupid on the
head of each. The sailor sat on a re-
Ginning COW and the soldier on a saw
buck. Another, ordered by a Young
lady, represented q ,iackass, q monkey
md a dude with their heads loringly
together, while underneath was tie >,
scription, The Three Graces.
Several days ago made one still
more peculiar. 1t represented a fat
man Sleeping on a sofa. Huge pieces
OF cheese and pie, with spider legs and
skeleton heads, ran over his BODY.
These We're undoubtedly intended Tor
Jokes. Still, some people seriously
order as homogeneous designs and
chuckle over the originality of their
conceptions, and recipients probably
chuckle just as much over the taste Of
the donor. -
