10 the wheel for the past week and have
done considerable good for the cause OF
religion, although as a whole, not accom-
pl;5hed halt what they desired. Rev. II.
NJ. Brown, assisted By several able brothers
of his station, have beeu talking to crowded
sudisnces in the Second Presbyterian
Church, and the people Of Gravel Hill who
failed TO receive the benefit OF one OF the
instructive d~iscourses in the interest OF re-
vivsls, should not miss the opportunity
riven to-day. Rev. L. F. Keller, OF the
First NJ. L Church has been exerting him
self TO the utmost in the interest OF bis
church and SO far has awakened not q few
persons of bis vsst audiences TO the full
realization Of their conditions
without the help Of God. The
pastor cfthe South ". Z Church is achiev.
ing even greater success than Mr.. keeler,
and if that congregation continues to grow
az of late, an addition to the present place
of worship will be the result, as the church
now used vas hardly commodious enough
for the congregation that was attending
before the late religious awakening set IN.
Hev. j. NJ. Monroe. OF the Christian
Church, assisted BY q S~teu5enville minis
ter, is preaching to large crowds nightly,
and hopes are entertained By that gentle
mar that Re will be able to stir a great
many negligent persons 10 action fer the
Savior, before he has concluded. Two
years ago Mr.. Monroe held q revival at
which over ons hundred persons Joined his
church. and he cheIisheS the desire TO re-
peat a Ike work.
The social events that have been given
by the Jolly Juniors this week have been
remarkable successes. This club gave the
largest private skating party ever held in
this city during the first week in January,
at the Niagara rink, and last Tuesday
evening the crowd in attendance at their
private hop ct the Elysian rink was one Of
the finest that has been collected at a so.
cisl gathering in this city for several years
Fifty couples to part in the dance which
opened by q grand march led by Master OF
Ceremonies Frank Williams and Miss Hat
tie Jones. As the Csfemblage of youth
and beauty KEEP, step to the excellent mu.
sic Of La R1chc's orchestra, they presented
q most beautiful scene. 1t was three
o'clock Wednesday morning when the
merry crowd dispersed feeling that it was
good to be there.
The Episcopal church in the Gravel
Hill cut %rcjoicos over the fac: that 1t lie
free from DEBT. About 500 was due for
recairs but the ladies Of the congregation
gave . bazaar a short time since which
melted about that amount and Rev. W. W
Walker viii announce tC bis congregation
this morning the status Of the church
Considering the fact that there are not
over 30 paving members In this church,
the little bnnd has accomplished g great
deal. 1t has built o fine little ediice and
nicely furnished IT, and all this after hav
ing had meet Of rts money swept away by
the bursting OF Cowen, Sheets x Co.'S
bank. The outside public has always
shown the hand Of charity 10 the Episco-
palians Of this city and they should receive
their share recognition in the work that
has been done. What O good thing it
would be could all our ministers make an
announcement from their pulpits similar
10 that OF Rev. Mr.. Walker this morning.
1t is O shameful fac. on the part Of the
congregations that they cannot.
This is iIat the season OF the year for
southern travel, which to be thoroughly
enjoyable wants to be extremely South,
and Northern people will find hat no
climate short {! Florida is mild both day
and night at his season Ct the year. Even
in New Orleans during the months ofJaL
uary, February and March visitors find
oyerconts very handy in tie evening and
at night. the atmosphere cannot be
called cold, but on account OF the mar5hy
condition Of that country it ia chilly and
