Tho ratients aunnally trested herotofore have numbered about 1,000, but receutly the applications for attendance’ have largely in- cressed. ‘The Relief and Aid Society has been asked for assistance, and promises were given that the dispensary should receive aid, but they have mever been kept. An nnusually large number of applications i antici- pated during the coming winter, and, uuiess those who h3ve thus rar carned thie diipensary along reccive the support of others, many poor and descrving persons cannot ko atended Lo on account of a want of money to procure the nec- essary medicines and dressings.

The first socisble of the ¥ourth Unitarian Chuich sinco the return of tie vastor, the Kev. C. W. Weadte, took place in the church pailors Wednorday evemng. The parlors were well fill- ed by the mewbers and friends of the Society, and an evening of thorough enjoyment was had by all present. One of thé most important events of the evening was tho action of the Seciety relative to rairing the church reveunue for the ensuing year. The church bas, litherto, been free to all, and the desire of the pastor has Leen to_retain the featurc of fres seats per- manentl¥, but, in view of the uncertaiuty of finaucial affairs during the approaching winter, it has beou thought desirable to raise a certain definite reveoue from reuting the pews. Mr. Wendte addreseed the meeting upon tinssubject, aud, slthough acknowledging that it had Leena stroog p e with lum to msiniain a free chureh, still, he was willing, at tbe present time, to yvield his prejudicos, ehowld it b considered essentisi to the interests of tho charch. After a brief discussion, the Society voted to rent the pews for the coming year, and Monday evening was appointed a8 the time for renting. . The undesstanding is that, to all in- tents and purposes, the seats shall bo as free a3 over, and that strangers shall bo treated even more hoepitably than pen-Lolders, since the !At{ur mill be expeoied to invariably give up their seats when wanted by the former. The Society took measures to reorganize the “ Fraternity, ” and to provide a regular series of thoroughly en- tertaining scciables. THE THOMAS TESTDMONIAL. The popularizy of M.

Tl concert wax a spoutaneons tribute of Chicago’s appre- ciation of alr.lhomas’ merts, and its suocess will_tend to cement more closely the bond of sympathy already well established between bim and the people of this city. The concert itself was emiuently satisfactory, and the assistance given by * home talont " was at once appropriate and creditable. Mrs. Huck's Presence in the concert-room is always weicome, and ber songs last night were received with someihing like euthusiasm. 3r. Goldbeck's quintctto was the central objuct of iuterest. The work is of the higler order of musical com- vostivy, to which Mr. Goldveck intends to de- vote himself very asuiduously in tho tuture. 1le already ranxs well in thus field, and has poth the application sud industry, and we believe also the talent, to make himscl{ known to the world. His quintetto last mght was in good hands, a8 played by himself aud four of AMr. Thomas’ leading musiciaus. More thourough rehearsal would unguestionably have brought the per- formance nearer tho ideal it reached after; but a goud 1des of the composition was given, and it was woll received by the musical people. The orchestral seloctiouns of tho evening, which wero varied in character, were given with the usual eclat of this adnurablo combination, and the af- fair waa, altogetber, eversthing that Mr. Thomas and his most devoted friends could Lave asked. It wes & fit closing of & remarkably successful series of concerts. s Tt g = B ANNOUNCEMENTS. Those who Lave seen Exeter Hall, London, packed by the Rev. Gervase Smith, A.

The Committeo furtber reported that they had visited Joliet, and ex- amined the varions gravel-pits, and found no differenco Letween any of the so-called grades of Joliet gravel. The report was socepted and the recommendations approved. j In signing the contract the President was in- structed to particularly stipulato that the gravel- ing shall be complcted within sixty davs, and when execating the contract with Charles Creighton to stivulsto that the work shall commenco immediately, and hirs as msny men from the Lake population ss possible.

O'Neill's wholesale and re- tanl liquor establishment, No. 132 Btate sireet, opposite the Palmer Honge, was had last even- ing, to which the personal friends cf the proprie- tor were invited. Quite & large number of them were in attendance us long as the place kept open, and were bLospitably entertained by Mr. ONeill and bLis employes, 3 gonerous lunch being provided. together with every dascription of stimulant which tho visitor’s palate migt crave. For those who smoked, & fragrant cigar topped Off the other creaturo comforts, aud, in coujunction with the latter, prepared il of the visitors for a survey of the premises. These were found to be more extensive and complete tan any similar ones in the city, and far superior to any that Mr. O'Nell has hitberto Lad control of. It is mnot only creditable to that gentleman, but creditable to the &pirit of energy and enterprisa which the merchants of Chicago are universally acknowledged to possess, that, after losiug nearly all of his property in twoeconfla- grations, amounting to moro than $200,000, he ghuuld 80 soon recover himseif and start out anew. Inthe great fire of 1871 Mr. O'Neil was completely bumed ont. Nevortheless, his credit and bis perseverance, both of which appear to be inexhaustible, enabled him to put up a fine building at .the cormer of ~State and Harrison streets, in which he resnmed hi> large and profitable business, Then cime tao o of July last, which, to use a common phrase, “ clennied bim out * as completely as its fanous predeccesor, and left um abeolutely without & roof to cover him, for he was living in bis building at the time. The building was buwived to the grouund, the stocx it coatained was ruinel, and there secmed to_be nothing lefc fox* him to do but to brood over hia misforiuncs. RBut Mr. O'Neill is not o misanturope. He is even more active in adversity than in prosperity, and hence we find him in business and in the fall tide of success again, If burved out ogain, ho says he will relinquish the liquor trade alto~ gether, and devote his entire attention to the Dreing business, As is well known, he is sole owner of tho Urion Brewery, corner of Twanty- sixth strest aad Johusou wvenue, which mana- factures the best and most popular brand of sle that 18 sold i Chicago.

Mr. O'Neill's chief object is to increase his already 1a:go wholesalo trade, his ro:ail sales being a secondary consideration. An extensive base- ment coutains all kinds of choice liquors in buls, from ci ‘or to the finest brandies. ‘I'ne first loor is elegantly fitted up with waluut coanters, shelv- ing and office-fixtures, and & haundsome digplay of French liqueurs, rare wives, aod o:her bot- tled liguors 18 made, while tho cen:raof the iong room 1x piled with innumerable boxes and bas- kets of imported wines.
