THEIR PARTING GIFT.

The Rev. G. Madsen, who for sixteen
years has been pastor of the Moravian
church at Sturgeon Bay, has been trans
ferred to Grand Rapids, to which place
he removes his family next.week. Mr.
Madsen isvery popular with his congre-
cation, and it is with deep SORROW that
they part with him. No minister ever
held a warmer place in the hearts of
the people with whom he has been
associated. About one hundred and
fifty of his friends assembled on last
Friday evening at the restaurant of
Eli. A. Thompson and from thence
proceeded to the residence of the
Reverend gentleman. Their intended
surprise was entirely successful, and
the parsonage not being large enough
to accommodate the visitors they
repaired to the Moravian Church
Y. V. Dreutzer was chosen spokes-
lnan for the company and presented
the Reverend a handsome gold watch
containing an EIgin movement of the
finest workmanship. Engraved on the
inside was the inscription Rev. G..
Madsen, from his Sturgeon Bay friends.
Oct. 19, 1883, and on the outside IN. .
this work being neatly done by Henry
G. Hildebrandt, from whom the watch
was purchased.
Mr.. Madsen was yisibly affected by
this manifestation of affection on the
part of his friends. In a few we'll
chosen words he expressed his thank
fulness for the kindness always shown
him and the generous treatment accord
ed him during his long residence in
Sturgeon Bay. He said that it was with
deep regret that he parted with the old
and dear friends whom he knew and
loved SO we'll; that although his 1abors
in this field had been hard aud he had
many obstacles to overcome it had been
a work of love, and if he had done
good he felt amply repaid; that while il
panied him much to leave this congre-
cation he was conscious of the fact that
they lost in him much less than he did
by the change. 1t was hard for him tc
leave Sturgeon Bay and all his friends
and he should always look back to the
years he had spent here as the dearest
recollections Of his life. He closed his
remarks by saying that he should
cherish the beautiful gift and the pres
ent occasion as being among the
happiest events in his ministerial exper
ience.
Mrs. Madsen was not forgotten, tha-
lady being presented with fine beaver
shawl. The Shiloh MoTayian congrega
ton of the town of Sturgeon Bay made
up handsome purse and also gave Mr.
and Mrs. Madsen a beautiful silver
caster. The ladies had provided fine
lunch of which all present partook, anc
after enjoying themselves in converse
/ ton and otherwise, the company
/ dispersed. Mr.. Madsen and family art
very highly esteemed and our citizen:
4 regret-that the authorities of his churcl
have transferred him to a new field.
The Rev. c. Madsen, spoken Of above
arrived in this city with his family the
past week and occupies Mr.. Mccarthy
residence on High Street We hope hi
may be successful in his work here a
he has been IN his last charge.

Needs Investigation.

WAsHlNGToN, July 19.-Dr. Hamilton, the
surgeon general of the marine hospital ser
vice, has recently made thorough inspection
of the methods adopted In New York to pre-
vent the introduction Of epidemic diseases
through the immigrants. He expresses him
self as satisfied with the existing system
But as to another branch OF the subject he
has some very positive notions. Hewas very
much impressed with the inferior character
of the immigration which is no% coming to
this country. He WAS told by one of the
officials of Castle Garden that if the Ameri-
can people really understood the character of
the immigrants who are now landed at the
port of New York congress would undoubt-
edly take some very radical measures to pre-
vent the induction Of so undesirable an cle-
meRt into our population. 1t is very proba'
BILE that congress will have better inf9rma-
tion upon this subject at the beginningbf the
next session than 1t now has. The investiga
tion that has been ordered by the house III
one branch of the immigration system is cx
pected to be very thorough and will undoubt
edly be followed by important and beneficial
| results. The speaker is endeavoring to selec
good committee and it is believed will az
point the following representatives to con
duct this investigation, already ordered dur
ing the recess Of congress: Ford OF Michi
