Benevolence and Love.

The day before New Years the
Times-Democrat of New Orleans
gave away over 1900 presents to
children whose parents were too
poor to provide for them.
What great work is this, how
ennobling the sentiment; what a
Joy must have come to the hearts
of those who bestowed these gifts,
as they saw the faces Of the little
children light up with joy and
pleasure, as each received his or
her present, as the the age and sex
loved BEST!
With the news of such acts of
charity and love The Progress must
pause and think we'll before it is
willing to admit that the world is
growing worse. Nay, it rather
thinks to the contrary, that moral
sentiment and religious consecra-
ton are growing stronger.
