by Miss Rowland. Here the homeless and wayward enter voluntarily or are brought by the city missionary or policeman. They re-. main usually for two years; are taught to work, and by sewing assist in the support of the house. Tke House of Mercy is of much the same character, and was recently found- ed by the Church Temperance society. Its however wretched and sinful, meets re-. pulse.
 A home for incorporate women was founded by Mrs. Mary Charpiot, who often in the city court pleads the cause of some poor woman, and having saved her from im- prisonment, takes her to the home to be tenderly cared for. At fair held for the benefit of this homo in 1888, $14,000 were raised, with which new house has been built, to be occupied May first. One wing of this building is for the treatment of wealthy inebriates.
 The Woman's Charity hospital is newly established and is under the management of the Charity club, Mrs. Micah Dyer, presi- dent: The N. B. Hospital for women and children was founded in 1862. It's officers, physicians and surgeons are nearly all women; it receives no state aid and is sup. ported mainly by subscriptions. The wards have been named for individuals or religious societies and are kept supplied with needed articles by those for whom they are named. It's work has been eminently successful, proving beyond 6 doubt that women are amply qualified to treat as physicians those of their own sex.
 The Y. W. 0. A. and the Educational and Industrial union are hardly to be called charities, though doing wonderful work in this line. The union, of which Mrs. Abby Morton Diaz is president, is a'large and powerful organization of twelve years' growth. It's object is to promote the educational, in- and has been so successful that there are now cities.
 One branch of the work of the wv. 0. A. is called the Travellers Aid" Miss Mary 0. Blodgett, in charge of this work, has dur- ing the past year been present upon the arri- val of four hundred and sixty-eight steamers and advised two thousand, four hundred and thirteen girls on landing, assisting them in reaching their friends or places of safety. The work of this association has been aptly termed by Rt. Rev. Bishop Paddock "the ap- piled science of Christianity"
 These are only the most prominent of such institutions found in Boston; there are many more, such as Miss Burnap's Home for Aged Women, which was founded without money in spirit of benevolence, and all these are doing grand work, sheltering, healing, up- glorious example. To know that the heart of the people inclines more and more to such labors as these should encourage us to take cheerful views of life, and with Paul, to thank God and take courage. HILARY.

But the highest test of mutual trust and kindness was shown at Misilmeri. Here, as I had offered Balbino the privilege of return ing by steamer to Catania, he accepted my offer and informed me that his ''friends" would pass both our donkeys and their hire back along the way in safety to their owner at Giardini; after which pleasant arrange ment we descended the mountains by dili- genoe fo the beautiful city of Palermo by the ses.

The party who are surveying the railroad route down the Colorado river are expected to reach Diamond creek canon twenty miles north of Peach Springs, about March 1st It is how ever a doubtful expectation as already three of the party have been killed by falling rocks and three injured, leaving eighteen at last reports, and they still have the most dangerous portion of the canon to go through. It is hoped, however, that they may succeed in making the trip safely. Major Powell is the only person who has ever made the trip down the Colorado and he does not wish to repeat his experience. There is large amount of matter at the Peach Springs postofice addressed to the various members of the survey ing party and postmaster Cohenour wonders how many of them will live to call for the mail addressed to them. -Mohave Miner.
