has wide Significance,

the war were drawn toward

bitter bondage; the slave was
represented as longing for
freedom, and during the war
praying through the nights
for the coming of the nation

This moving, though mis-

and the rich army cOnrrnc-

1t was wisely directed that
these donation should have

stopped and the man taken aboard.
A doctor was on the train and the man
was found in bad condition. When
carried to the hospital be was like
piece of ice. He did not show the
least signs or vitality for some time.
He is now able to go about, bat is very
lame. His hands were frozen and the
right presents sickening sight. The
nails have come off and the bone is bare
on one of the fingers. There was also
large hole found in his
knee cap. The feet too were
badly frozen. The man says he is a
miner. that he has nothing, and few
friends at Portland. He will not be
able to work for long time, and there
is talk of taking him to the County In
Urinary.
During the cold weather there has
not been more than the usual new ar
rivals at the hospital The good Sis
tiers are kept busy, however, by persons
calling for meals about that time of
day. Three persons called for break
fast and three for dinner, few days
ago, and scarcely day passes that poor
from without are not fed there.
There was an epidemic Of measles
among the children, but all are better.
There were FIVE Of the little girls re-
ported sick yesterday. Older persons
at the institution have been suffering
very much from severe colds.
Wilson Miles, of Sistersville, is now
at the institution. He was brought
from there few days ago, and he is
suffering from severe sore foot. He
first sprained it and then 0y exposure
caught cold in it. which developed a
bad wound. He is some better.
Patrick Grannor, the man who met
with the severe accident at the Belmont
mill, is much better. A piece Of steel
struck him on the leg and severed the
flesh to the bone. DR.. Baguley is attend
ing him.
The bright little girls in the school
room were found we'll trained, and sang
beautifully, and the Sisters were found
kind and accommodating. Everything
about the Institution was found in nice,
clean trim.
