spent in Little Rock, in the Sabbath
School. and in the church, and she spoke
very earnestly Of the young gentle
men now whose grandfathers she had
known as young men in Sabbath School
years ago. This paperwas handsomely
read. It's contents were Womanly, gen
tie and thoughtful, andt was a striking
evidence of the literary ability Mrs.
Dodge possesses. And here we will say
that this lady has for many many years
been one of the ladies of our city whose
hand and whose heart has been stead
fast, gentle, yet untiring in all good
works, in all holy influences. Her pa
per was like herself, pure, kindly, deal
ing life's problems with rare good
sense, yet with compassionate love.
Again we had songs, and the skilltul
touch upon the piano of Mr.. Dean, sent
a flood of melody to bear up the voices
that ardently joined in the songs refrain.
Then there came forward Mr.. George
Shinn. This young gentleman is a ma
tive of our state, and his topic, "Why
Young Men Should Belong to the Chris
tan Association, was presented clearly,
sincerely, and with the earnest vigor that
carries an audience with it. We should
like to hear Mr.. Shinn often.
Col. Logan Roots came forward after
the next song, to tell "Why Business
Men should belong to the Young Mems
Christian Association" Col Roots is an
eloquent speaker, and in clear, logical
manner, he addressed the audience upon
the evils about us, commencing with the
taxes of the city and county. "Thev
are collected, but our city is not improv-
ed; the amount of criminal cases, the
inmates of jail and penitentiary, take up
a large revenue. Can we not stop
crime?" .
He continued: "Here are elegantly
furnished rooms; here are pleasant peo-
pie Here" he said, turning to Mr..
Chipley, lis a man except for whom, I
would not be speaking tonight, but |
like him so we'll believe would do
anything for him. Let us save young
men, A young man comes here, and

earnest men, and women, have arranged
pleasant rooms, brilliantly lighted and
comfortably warmed, where young men
and lads can spend an afternoon, or
evening. In these rooms are to be found
books selected for the purpose OF lncreaS-
inc historical knowledge, of melting a
reverent scientific investigation OF the
wonderful works that our blessed Lord
has placed everywhere in this world of
ours books also, containing the thoughts
of men distinguished for moral tone and
mental powers, and is not this a goodly
company for young men learning how to
think Alright? With these books to in
terest the visitor at these handsome
rooms, there are also the newspapers of
the city, and state, with journals from
other cities.
Though these rooms are arranged by
Christian men and women, they are ar
ranged with the remembrance of our
blessed Lord S spoken words, Il am not
come tocall the righteous, but sinners to
repentance. So in these rooms all are
welcome, all who wish to pass time in
some manner other than evil doing. And
human beings are not, take it, DESTROYS
to be aIzvays doing evil. That they may
have happier and social life, there is a
gentleman in charge OF the rooms, who,
genial, kindly, and full of sympathy, is
just the friend young men would like
to ask counsel of, Or enjoy pleasant
welcome from. This gentleman, Mr..
Chipley, is secretary of the Young Mems
Christian Association, and is always to
be found in their rooms.
Last Sabbath afternoon we passed
through the handsome parlor, through
the reading room and on to the assembly
room, where had been placed the piano.
from the parlor, for the Sabbath singing
OF our young men and ladies. In this as
sembly room there was sung to rapid
measure some songs that were cheerful
and good. Judge Sam Williams offered
a pathetic prayer for all true and bolv
influences to gather about the young peo-
pie assembled in the room. Reverend
Mr. Cornelius spoke then upon the innu-
ences that are evil, besetting a vonno
mans life in city. Ten minutes were
gwen only to each of the speakers, 50
that everything said was bright and to
the point Songs happy refrain were
sung, OF praise to God, and of human
hope Then Mrs, r, L. DODGE read ,

WRECK or A FUR LADEN
STEAMER.

\ steamer, the Princess Royal,
belonging to the Hudson's Bay Com
pany, and laden with furs valued at
thirty-fye thousand pounds, has been
wrecked in the Bay. and is a total
loss. 1t is not often that a disaster
at sea, when it is unattended with
sacrifice of life, appeals SO directly to
the Sympathie~ of the fair sex as this,
which consigns to "the sharks and
whales" and the bottom of the sea,
such a valuable cargo Of furs. What
shops-fulI of lovely mantles and stump
tuous cloakS and cosy capes so plea
SAINT TO wear, so charming to look at,
are lying fathoms deep under the re-
lentIess waves, being utterly ruined
by the briny water, tumbIed about
and-who knows 7-perhaps eaten by
catfsh and c~onger-eeIs! 1t is a
dreadful thought, and quite enough to
arouse sensations of lively regret in
the hearts of the ladies who, but for
that unfortunate squall off Moose
Factory, the scene of the wreck,
might this next season have worn,
and made more delightful IN the
wearing, the spoiIs of otter and bea-
