September II, 1895.

in the heart Of London, at a
table beer stained and aged,
sat two very curious looking
characters playing at cards.
One was rough, unclean, shah
by and much the worse for
wear-Martin by name. The
other poor in appearance, was
however neat, refined and at
tractive one whose genius we
admire, whose wit always re-
freshes us,-it was Charles
Lamb.
The two men played long
into the night, and while beer
and something stronger found
its willing course, down their
ever thirsty threats, Lamb kept
up his accustomed broadside of
wit. The night passed into
the early morning and yet they
played. Luck kept favoring
Lamb, when toward the close
of the game, sliced with a
bright idea, and the conscious
ness of the dirt which the
morning light seemed to reveal
more clearly in the appearance
of his companion, he said :
Martin, if dirt was trumps

During the last few weeks
our beautiful city has been
visited with a plague whose be-
ginning was accomplished by
the uncleanness of various
parts of the city. Cholera
reigns supreme where dirt and
filth are, and the only sure way
to kill the comma bacilli is to
take away the generators.
Thanks to the untiring efforts
of the citizens and the Board
Of Health this is being done and
in a few days more we hope to
see the cholera stamped out.

spring up at any time unless
watched very carefully. can

RICHMOND, Va, February, 1895.
To the Children Of the Diocese OF I3r-
giaid.
My Dear Children AS Ash-Wed-
nesday, the first day of the season of
Lent, will soon be here the time has
come for me to write the letter which
I send to you every year. hope none
of you are tired hearing from me, but
cannot help wondering how many
are really glad and expecting TO receive
my letter. have nothing new to tell
you. | come with the same old re-
quest, that, by saving and making
all the money You can during the six
weeks of Lent, you will help to sup
port the missionaries OF our church, who
are labor!ng in our poor country par
ishes.
Many seem to feel that missionary
is an inferior sort of a man. In other,
words, they appear to think that our
missionaries are not equal to, and are
not doing as good and important work
as our city ministers. But this is
great mistake Do you know what a
missionary is? 1t is man or wo-
man who is sent by God TO make
known to others His great love for us
all, which He showed by giving His
only begotten and beloved Son 10 die
for the sins. And who was the great
est missionary that was ever on earth ?
1t was our Lord Jesus Christ himself.
He said that he was sent, OF appointed
a missionary, by the Father, to save us
from our sins and the punishment of
our sins, and he told His first Disciples
''as the Father sent me into this world,
or appointed me to be missionary,
even so send you. Go We, therefore,
into all the world aud preach the gos-
pei to every creature.
So YOU see that missionaries ought to
be most highly esteemed and honored
for their work s sake since Christ and
His Apostles were all missionaries, as
are all true ministers Of the gospel
now.
The people of our country congre
cations, being few in number and poor,
are not able of themselves to support
their ministers, and therefore ask you,
dear children, to help them to do SO.
You have done nobly for several years
past, and feel sure that you will not
fall behind in your gifts this year.
You no doubt often hear about "hard
times.n But remember that they are
slways hard with our poorly paid mis-
sionaries in our country churches. Let
us resolve to give them all the help we
can, that they may not have a still
harder time this present year.
Freely have you received from your
heavenly Father all the good things
you enjoy, and freely may you, dear
children, give to others, for the sake of
the precious Saviour, who has said, ut Is
more blessed to give then to receive"
Your loving friend and Bishop,
f. NJ. WHITTLE.

FRUITFUL FAMILIEs.-A Richmond

FRUITFUL FAMILIEs.-A Richmond
Dispatch correspondent from King
George presents record, which, per-
haps, few, if any, counties in the State
can excel, as follows "Mr. Crowther,
who died in Northumberland county
last week, in the 72nd year of his age,
left fourteen living children, instead of
fourteen children and grandchildren, :"
as has been enormously stated. AL
though so much has been said about
this ''big family" it is by no means >un-
usual to find even twenty children in
one family down here in this land of
fish, oysters, persimmons and opossums.
Colonel James Monroe Taliaferro, of
this county, who died last year, left
twenty-five children. The late DR..
Samuel 3. Rice, OF this county, Mrs:
Roger A. Pryor's father, boasted OF
twenty-six children, and DIR. t. t.
Arnold, also of this county, was the
twentv-iirst child of his father and then
had brother younger than himself.
And these are not isolated cases OF
twenty odd children in one family"
