In crery houschold there had Leen cconumy, coms ing down from luxury tocomfort, and from comfort to the very necesaltics of Iife. Even lttle children had been shortened fn thelr toys snd enjoyments. Ills hearcrs wera ealled npon, 1f they gavu thanks honestly, to face that fact. “They might talk about the glory of the gencra- tion behind tuem, but they did not come to rive _thanks for the Jast hundred years. They might -thank God that the times were no worse, and “he proceeded to show.'tn the Jight of the Bible thas they could thauk tho Lord for the hard times.

The great fron door with fts heavy gratings otened and closed frequently to adinit visitors tothe jail, Bometiines a meanty-dressed wom- an withi a basket oo her arm would hurry across the yard and ring the deil, whercupon the iron dovr would open, the iron gratings would un- clasp, aud the woman_would disappear within the keeper's room.

VERDI'S REQUIEM MASS, The Becthoven Boclcty made its first public appearance this scason lastevening at McCor- mick's Hall, The programme consisted of Verdi's *“Kequlem Mass,” which the Boclety pave last season in the Plymouth Cougrega- tional Church. Notwithstanding the sudden cold weather, the anniversary character of the day when so many people stay at home, and the strong counter attractlon at the Tabernacle, there was & very large audience In attendance, which grected the Soclety and its performance very cordlally. and at times with enthu- slasm. Tho performance differed from that of last season in two or three respects. Then the accompaniments were given upon the organ, this time they were glven by orchestra, as they wero orgiually written, the scures bav- Ing been procured from London at large ex- pense to the Soddets, The quartctte last year consisted of Mrs, Thurston, Miss De Pelgrom, Mr. Dexter, and Mr. Bergatein; thistime it was Mrs, Thurston, Mra. Kempton, Mr. Koorr, and Mr. Martin, Some slight changes were also made last cveniug, the ‘* Liver Scriptus® be- fur given according to Verdi's revision asan allo sulo, with an oev:nlunll lntvmng of the mere words * Dics Irne? by the chorus, instead of full chorus, tno_ orchestral score containing only the solo, The Soclety tummed out in very full ranks and did its work with excceding credit. The sopranos were specially strong, and tho other parts were well up to thelr work, the tenors shawing a declded improvement over last year, althongh they stiil need strengthening with eume leading Volcas, The orchestra furced them to thelr utmost, and aithourh they were sometimes covered up by the brass, they nesertlicless sang with a -ulm aud power_for which they suould liave great credit. ‘The overwhelming welght of " the orchestrn was clearly. enough shuwn in the Sanctus,” which, thoss who were present last year wll remcmber, received on enthusiastic encore from the choral streurth of the Hosaunas in ita finale. Ou this uecasfon they were mrcu with no less of power, but tue evorus could not cope with tho orchestra, and the brosres falled to get the encore which the volnes descrved to have, ‘Thy quartetto was decidedly stronger than that of last year, its ensemble belng very effeet- fve.
