A Social S0ciable at Wilson's.

WILSON'S, March 17.-What can be better
calculated to develop soclabillty, the nobles'
and graadest Of all characteristics, IN young
people as we'll as OLD, than socisl gather,
fnp of both sexes, with each and all on the
same footing; where that chilly thing they
call reserve is thrown aside, and jest and
GOOD humor are the talisman of the hour;
where, without any constraint whatever,
every one feels OF liberty to do or say any
thing he pleases, within the bounds Of pre-
priety. and it is but pleasure for each one
to look after the pleasure Of some one else
We claim the above description for the
Onion Histrionic club meetings at Will
sons, and it was only necessary to be at the

ending. Below is the programme OF the

a Popular Paper.

A large increase of advertisements rem
aers supplement again necessary: The
Tines is one of the best and newslest Pa
pers in the State, and few country papers
lave better advertising patronage. Every
body wants to read the Times, and If they
have not the money to pay for it. they beg
II from some of their more fortunate neigh
bors and read it any way. 1t costs only
three cents week, and it seems to US that
It ought to be cheaper to pay this small sum
than TO beg, borrow, or steal it.

federates by assault with the great fleet o1
Admiral Porter to help him. In a few days
now We reached point within three miles
Of the Big Black River, and about thirteen
miles from Vicksbuls. This was thin, on
Saturday, July T. Here we halted to rest,
and it was supposed after a little rest the
troops under Gen. Johnston would make
the distance the next day by what WAS gen
orally termed q ''forced march" On the
next day, which was Sunday, we heard to
our surprise that Vicksburg had surren-
dered.

HOT AND DUSTY.

Water was very scarce and hard to get. The
people through this part Of Mississippi at
that time used cistern water, and there Were
very few if any creeks in this part Of the
State, unless it was few that TIVE some times
call wet weather creeks. n our march and
stirring up the dust it would be amusing
The dust would settle on Us, and men with
beard would look simply awful. Every
mans beard would present the same appear
ance in color, and each man could only see
how some other man looked, and could en-
Joy it hugely. Water beng scarce and hard
to get We were compelled to make the best
we could of this condition Of things. 1t has
always been and is still the teaching of ge-
ography that there are only five races Of
men, but at that time it would have been
supposed there were six. Our nationality
would certainly have been hard to deter
mine, and to what part Of the human taml-
y or race we belonged to would have puz-
zled the the wiSest of the wise. The troops
at this time and on this march presented a
strange and hideous appearance. Not beng
able to get water to wash our faces made
our feelings as disagreeable as our appear
ance was hideous With all this disagreed
bleness We continued our march towards
Vicksburg. Gen. Grant had called a halt to
his charging forces, and was patiently wait
ing for his faithful ally (starvatlon) to ac-
complish what he could not accomplish
with the powers he had at hand. He had
q large and well fed army at his command,
but be could not carry the works OF the Con-

Revival Services at the Church of the
 NIessfah-A Large Attendance.

MesSlan-A Large Attendance.
 The revival services at the Church of the Messiah drew large audience last even- ing. The exercises, like the preceding nights, were extremely interesting and in- structive. The meeting opened at 7:45, and number of gospel hymns were sung by the congregation, Rev. Stamford Mitchell leading the singing. Two solos were sung by MT. Mitchell which charmed and delighted all present. Rev. MT. Squires read an appropriate hymn, after which Rev. Dr. Perkins invoked the di- vine blessing. Then MT. Mitchell sang ''Rock of Ages" Rev. MT. Squires made short address and introduced Dr. Per kins, who preached an exceptionally able and eloquent discourse on the words founds in the fourteenth chapter of Luke: 'Friend go up higher" The central thought of the discourse was that all should aspire to be better and live on 8 higher level and thus grow in grace and round out life symmetrically and beauti- fully.
 After the able discourse of Dr. Perkins some more gospel songs were sung and with earnest and we'll chosen remarks by the pastor the large and evidently well pleased audience was dismissed. The members of the Church of the Messiah feel encouraged at the inte rest which has been manifested in the re vival meetings now in progress. People of all de- nominations are attending them and the good work is advancing steadily and satisfactorily. Last evening, in response to special invitation by Rev MT. Squires, quite a number of young women employed in large factory in this city were present and greatly enjoyed the meeting. The meetings are free to all and cordial invitation is extended to every body to be present. This evening Mr. Stanford Mitchell, who is without doubt the finest gospel singer in this country, will be present and sing a number of choice selections. The meeting will begin promptly at quarter to eight o'clock. Mrs. R. F. Lines, the we'll known and highly gifted concert pianiste, who, has presided at the piano at the former meetings, will be present this evening and contribute her valuable services

FOUND AT THE RoYroN HOUSE.

 L. Rising Taken to the Police Omce-His Death at the Hos- pftal Last Evening.
 On Wednesday night a stranger ap- peared in the office of the Royton house on Court street and notified the pro- prietor, John Morton, that one of his roomers was lying at the foot of the stairs in an intoxicated condition. The stranger then disappeared.
 MT. Morton ascertained that the man was not one of his boarders. His hat lay beside him, his coat was over his head and his general appearance indicated that he had been roughly handled and dragged some distance. .-.-..
 An officer was summoned and the man was taken to the central station where he was recorded as drunk.
 When the man recovered consciousness he complained of his head and Dr. c. F. Lindsley was summoned. The doctor found large swelling on the back of his head and several other bruises on his head. As the physician considered the case dangerous one the man was removed to the hospital, where he was identified as Freuer1cK IL. hisiuS, prlnter, Wuo ls member of Typographical union No. AZ of this city.
 When Dr. Lindsley was asked about the affair he made the following statement ssWhen examined the man and found the swelling at the back of his head, and the skin not cut or broken, sand-bagging i'm. mediately entered my mind. I was told l that the man was found at the foot of s flight of stairs which he had probably fal len down, but from the nature of the in | jury am of the opinion that the wound was not received that way, but from , blow. If the man had fallen even agains l a perfectly flat surface with force enough | to cause such wound, the skin woule l have been broken" l The police have investigated the cas- and are of the opinion that the man wa in Loveday's saloon on State street late il the evening, having been found in drunken condition on the sidewalk ant taken into the saloon.
 l Rising was unconscious at the hospita nearly all the time until his death, whicl occurred about 5:50 last evening. He i supposed to have 8 mother living in West vile, Mass.
 Coroner Mix will investigate the case.

In buying toys for your children buy those which they covet most earnestly. To find out what they covet, ask them who keeps the best toys, and also notice whose toys they talk most about while at play.
 We will bet copper that Fair Haven children talk more about our stock of toys than about that of any other store in this glorious city.
