 Jndge L. N. Blydenburgh, who was the next speaker, said he was surprised to see such large audience present on such an unpleasant evening. He contrasted the pres ent large meetings with the former small gatherings of the society, and stated that the present meetings were so largely patron ized because men and women knew the value of temperance influence, as through that influence prosperity was brought to many home that had formerly suffered inconyen fence from intemperance. The musical part of the entertainment which followed was very interesting" MT. Charles Cone played "White Wings on the zither, and in response to a hearty encore, he rendered "Golden Chimes of Happy Days" Edward Howard, whose voice is beautiful and pow erful, sang "The Fisherman and his Child are Drowned" He was recalled when he sang Believe Me of all Those Endearing Young Charms" Miss Kitty O'Donnen sang ''Scenes that Brightest and the echo song in response to an encore.

while there may be among them laughter and dignation and wrath, shame and everlasting contempt for any man who is the slave of his own appetites, and that any true girl would trample her heart under foot, pluck out her right eye and cut off her right hand rather than incur the danger of being cast with her whole body in to the hell of drunkard's or ibertine's life.
 Dr. Smyth then gave counsel regarding the speech and conversation, and urged that the life of the true woman is made complete and radiant by the indwelling of the spirit of Christ, which is also, he added, the first need and the last perfection of all manli- ness. Concluding, he said:
 May this sermon then, in the name and to the memory of Persis, the beloved who la bored much in the Lord, lead some young woman this morning to look out with Chris tian eyes-not less happily, but with more purpose of heart-upon her life, and above all in honor of the truest wolnanhood and in obedience to the brightest law of her being and in hope of her participation in the per feet completion of our humanity in Christ Jesus, to confess him to be her master and lord

FOURTEENTH ANNIVERSARY.

Interesting Exercises at the Howard Avenue M. E. Church-Addresses
 by City Pastors-EvangelisLic Ser
 vices.
 The exercises at the Howard avenue M. E. church yesterday were of very interesting character, it being the fourteenth anniver- sary of the dedication of the church. and also the occasion of a Thanksgiving sermon. The church was very tastefully decorated with fruits and flowers, most of the decora- tions being about the chancel, pulpit and organ. The pastor, Rev. Nathan Hubbell, delivered a short address giving reminis- cences of the church covering 8 period of twenty-three years, when the first services which led to the organization of it were held This meeting was held at the residence of Willis Smith South Water street. In January, 1871, cottage Sunday schools were established under the direction of Mrs. Gill bert Eaton. The old oyster shop at City Point was remodeled and converted into a place of worship and services were held there and Sunday school established in Feb. 1872. The first sermon was preached by Rev. Day. i'd H. Hine, a lay preacher and member of the George street M. E. church, the church at City Point being mission of that church In 1872 Rev. Perry Chandler was appointed to the mission and organized the present church with membership of four males and ten females The pastor gave some facts showing the prosperity of the church up to the present conference year. Notwithstand- ing the fact that the society was still small one, yet the pastor predicted that in the not distant future large and fourishing church would take the place of the present one. On concluding his brief history of the church the pastor preached an interesting discourse from Genesis 8, xii; "While the earth re- maineth seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease"
 The following programme was observed for the morning exercises:
