It isa pleasant custom to sit down together to a dinner which is prepared with more or less reference to good old New Engiand ideas in regard to food, and as the supervision is entirely in charge of the ladies of the club, or per- haps more properly speaking, the ladies of the Congregational chureh, |The’ allusions to the after dinner. speeches to the things just en- Joyed are well founded. The members of the club |. and the invited _—_guests ‘were asked to come at seven o'clock, and at that hour they began to come In. The large front doors of the church were kept closed and entrance was from 10th street, thus enabling the ladies to throw the two Class rooms on each side of the Spacious hall, together with the hall, into one large reception room, which wag very éffectively decorated with flowérs and foliage plants, Here those coming were recetved, and while wraps and coats were being removed, the guests mingled Socially together. Finally ‘all were invited up- stairs to the spacious lecture room, where three Jong tables were spread. ‘The good taste of the ladies was displayed in this room, as well as the one below, in the tasterul ition. of foliage plants and the decoration of thetables. The guests were soon seated, and, as the good things were discussed, they talked and laughed and had @ good time in ‘the agreeable social way for whtch the descendants of the Pilgrim Fathers are noted. After dinner the president of the club Mr, Lewellyn Deane rapped for order, and the hum of conversation ceased. Mr. U. M. Paul,with Prof. Bischoff as accompanist, sang a solo'with fine effect. President Deane took tlie floor, and in a few preliminary remarks welcomed all’ to the annual celebration, and then in a humorous vein urged the speakers of the evening not to follow In the beaten track and refer ina disparaging way tothe difference in the situation of the Piigrim Fathers and their descendants who had gathered together to celebrate their landing on tie shores of this continent. It Js true that the descendants had met in a beautiful room with handsome sur- roundings, instead of a log hut, and that perhaps, they had partaken of better fare, but he hoped that it would not be regarded as discreditable to the descendants that such was the case. After this playful warning to deal gently with the de- scendants and not be too hard on them, he intro- duced the speakers one after another, showing himself to be a capital toast-master, MR, SPOFFORD'S ADDRESS. The first speaker was Mr. A. K. Spofford, the Ubrarlan of Congress, who was introduced as a good pligrim of Puritan stock,. who had been asked to speak of the influence of the Puritans upon the literature and letters of the country. Mr Spofford began by telling a good story of an Irish- man apropos of the relative importance of after- dinner speeches and the dinner itself, and then proceeded to pay a tribute to the Yankee school- master, Who could be found everywhere In this broad land. If not, the Yankee school marm was son to be found. ‘rhe question proposed to, him, “What has New England done for literature?” was, most readily answered by the question, What has itnot done? In speaking of the noced names in Uterature the speaker said that New England easily heads the list. In poetry, there 1s Bryant, Halleck, Emerson, Whittier, Longiellow, Lowell, ‘Holmes, and others. In history, tere is Prescott, Bancroit, Hildreth, Parkman, andothers. As pub- Ucists, Wayland, ’ Woolsey,’ Walker, Wheaton, Sumnér and Perry. As leXtcagraphers, Webster and Worcester. AS journal! james Watson Webb, Horace Greeley, Geo. D. Prentice, William Cullen Bryant, Samuel’ Bowles, while Hawthorne easily heads the list of novelists, and among the critical writers may be named George William Curtiss, W..W. Story, E. P. Whippic,, DG. Mitch- ell, Bayard Taylor, Richard Grant White, Charles Dudley Warner, N.P. Willis, and others of the elder Writers. ‘The speaker then said that the spirit of the Pil- grims Was -not_ best perpetuated by laudatory Words Dut by ado their sturdy devotion to duty, love.of work and-other steriing quat!- Ues into our own dally lives, He said that the public sense must be aroused to the dangers aris. ing from the spirit of extrayagance and intem- perance. “Tnteiaperance In dMnk, in diet, in dress and in the press. It is- these things, sald the speaker, and not as Carlyle puts it, “the extinct ins,” that we must fight. Whenever there is a wrong to be righted, an evil to be reformed, or any service in the cause of God and humanity to be performed, there should, the sons of New Eng- land, be found ready equipped for the work. REMARKS BY DR. BARTLETT. After the applause had subsided, Rey. Dr. Bart- lett was brought to his feet. by President Deane, ‘with some reference to the Presbyterians and the Puritans. The reverend gentleman sald that it had always seemed to him that for a very few people in a very little ship, the Puritans had made a great deal of fuss in this world, The fact of the matter ts they have been talked ‘about ever since they landed here. ‘The speaker sald that he felt {iRboldened to make a confession, although he knew that no New Engldind man born would everdo Uhe same, and that was none of his ancestors came over in the Mayflower; that Elder Bartlett was de- layed for some reason When the vessel st but he came two or three ships afterwards, (Great laughter) He was an ancestor, but unfortunately he did not come over soon enough to be in thegio- rious company of the first pioneers, Fromananaly- hls of the Puritan character the speaker concluded that religion and thrift were the two principal qualities. ‘They were Englishmen and Calvinists, and the speaker sald that there was no ‘historian who denied to Calvinism the inspiration of our liberty and republican form of government. To-day, he said, more men swore by Calvin and more nien swore at Calvin than any other great leader of thought in the world’s history. “This Proved his power and influence. But the Pi ame here not only, as one of them sturdily re- piled to a minister Who rebuked him for neglect. Ing his religious duties, to worship God, but to catch fish, und so, said the speaker, they had one eye for thé fish basket as well as one for religion. He thought that the Brooklyn bridge, which hé described as materiallrm come to bloom, repre- sented the fish basket side of our national ¢harac- ter, and the Washington imonument—that silent shift Leaching patriotism, the ideal—represented the spiritual side. ‘The latter pays no interest. in the money invested in it, represents no stock, Tuns no factories, gives no relief to the and {he helpless, but'the men and women who come before it breathe a nobler patriotism, ‘MR. DEANE'S LITTLE JOKE. ‘The applause which the eloquence of the speaker evoked was only stilled when Mr. Deane arose to his feet and read a letter from Rev. Mr. Green of Calvary Baptist church regretting his absence ates o iiiness. President Deane looked rather sadly around after he read the letter and then brightening up said that he intended to per- Boctod, aid he rather gusssed he would get it of Bay way. He had intended to say" In introducing Mr. Green, that the congregationalists were a very large body, but divided into two bodies the wet and dry and Mr. Green the wet.

THE HOLIDAY TRADE. ‘The Throngs in the Stores—Suggestions to Christmas Shoppers. ‘The season for making Christmas purchases 1s drawing to a close. The stores are thronged night and day. ‘The beautiful displays of holiday goods form the feature of the business streets.

Several of those issued this season easily take rank ahead of anything that has preceded them, although the extreme point of excellence was lication of this class that has come to our notice ‘this season ts “A Book of thé Tile Club,” from the of Hi MiMin Co., (received through Beall). The Mlustrations of this volume are exquisite reproductions of studies and fintshed ‘sketches, an ures, by members of that noted group of young and talented artists known as the “thie Club,” which has more than once Deen the theme of writers for newspapers and magazines, and whose golags and comings, say- ings and doings are always sure to command at- tention. The index of iliustrations includes such names as Vedder, ton, Millet, Chase, Gifford, Quarles, Reinhart, Abbey, Hopkinson Siaith, St jaudens, Dieiman, and nearly as well Sener known. ‘This list isa ranty Uhat the filustra- ons, which are vai Well ‘as generous in the matter of number, are y artistic in conception and treatment. ‘The text, admirably suited to the t of the book, ts by Kdward Strahan and Hi kinson Smith (Who by the way 1s about, as Writn the pen as with the pencil and brush). in typographical execution and bit the volume is all that can De desired, and viewed in any it forms &@ most attractive and really valu- able souvenir, Less ambitious in character, as it 1s also less ex- pensive, but still very attractive in its way, is “Nature's Hallelujah,” fllustrated ana arranged by Irene E.

The wood engraving illustrations, after Miss Jerome's charm- ing drawings from nature, are by George T, An- crew, who ranks with the best artists in histtine, While the selections of text. include appropriate extracts from standard wrivers in prose and verse. In the portrayal of binds and biis of scenery Miss Jerome is wonderfully clever, and some of her very best work ts shown in this pretty volume. It will be difficult for those in search of holiday souvenirs to find anything more attractive in their ‘way than the set of beautiful brochures published | under the general ttle of “Familiar Birds, and What the Poets Sing of Them,” whether bound to- ether or in the three sections devoted vely to “Songs of Birds,” “Songsters of the Branches,” and “Birds of Meadow and Grove.” ‘The task Of making poetical selections for a work of this kind is comparatively easy, since all true poets have loved and sung sweetly of binds; but iss Skelding, the editor, has nevertheless shown. taste and ju nt Worthy of recognition, for the | Held of selection ts wide. “The charm of the work lies, however, in the flustrations, twelve in num- ber,—all colored after careful drawings from life by Fideiia Bridges, who, it is hardly too much to say, is without 2 peer in'the artistic and sympathetic rtrayal of our field birds, flowers and grasses. ‘The book is therefore one that 1s not. only a thing Of beauty in itself, but one of real Value, on account of its fdelity to nature, [White, Stokes & Allen, New York, through W.

Of course, the tastes and wantsof the Juventles are consulted and looked after by publishers, ag. well as by parents and friends, about the holiday season. The result is’a tempting array of books suitable for little folks of every age and of | taste on the shes feabien of all the dealers: | Of this class a very attractive volume is “Youth in | Twelve Centuries,” a éollection of the pictures and poetry published under that title In Wide Awake duri the year.
