Dr. Balch assembled at the residence of Mrs. James C. Wiison, Con- gress street, last evening to celebrate her Sist year. The lady in question, with her silvery hair and benign face, sat as the Queen of Sheba in her stately chair. being a token of love pre- sented by Captain Wilson, her son, U.S. Arsenal, Weshington. Mrs. Wilson was the reciplent of many gifts, differing in size, quality and color, all lending their ald in sending joy into the heart of the worthy hostess. After Inspecting the gilts bestowed, the family group were re- freshed with fee cream and cake, sent asa re- fresbing gift from a friend. Floral tributes graced the table. Mrs. Wilson had present two. widowed daughters, one son, one sister, four grandsons, one granddaugiiter, neice’ aud nephew. Mrs. W. has spent her life amidst the community of this ancient town, where once her sire trod greatly respected and revered. THE GRAIN TRADE.—Arrived by canal, boat George T.

For five years there has been a steady eilling. off in the ‘number of converts reported. In 1S76, 48,240 persons were reported as having joined the church. In 1Si7 the number of new mem- bers fell to 43,268, The 187s report showed a heavy falling off, the number entered being only 32,277. But 1879 made even a worse show- ing than that, with its 29,196. It was supposed that with returning business prosperity more converts might reasonably be expected to swell the report for the present year. But here again Is a shi e, and the number recorded for 1880 is only 26,838. As there are now 300 more ministers than there were in 1876, and 412 more churches, 1¢ would seem that an increase of results might be expected instead of a shrink- age. The total contributions for all religious and benevolent objects in the Presbyterian church amounts to $5,360,000, which 13 $150,000 Jess than the amount contributed in 1876. It 1s not supposed that the ministers have preached less eloquently or prayed less fervently than in former y« and therefore the present state of affairs 1s a puzzle to the oldest and wisest of the denomination. —N.
