In onder to meet the heavy demands for space in its advertising columns, on account of the approaching holiday season, and to give at the saine time a due proportion of reading matter, ‘Taw Evestxa $ran Will, in addition to its usual six-page issue during the week, appear next Saturday im TRIPLE OR TWELYR-PaGR FORM! ‘This arrangement will serve a double and most valuable purpose for all the patrons of the paper. On the one hand, the increased quantity and great variety of attractive reading matter, both original and selected, thus given will be sure to secure and gratify an unusually large circle of readers, $0 that it will be quite safe to assume ‘that the circulation of that issue of the paper ‘will be the largest of the year, up to that date. On the other hand, the greatly extended pub- Letty thus assured will make this mammoth ninety-six broad column edition of unequalled value to all dealers who desire to make gener- ally known the attractions they have to offer for the holidays, then near at hand, while the in- creased space at command will accommodate all comers tn this respect, ‘Monal.—These premises established, !t only re- mains for those interested to take full and prompt advantage of the exceptional factlities ‘thas affonted.

The advan- tages, the necessity and practical methods of such co-operation were thougntfully considered. No more important subject has been before the con- ference. The Evangelical Alliance itself bears ‘witness to the power for good of co-operation in the beuetit resulting from this remarkable conven- tion of notable representatives of different Caristian denominations to all who participated 3m It, and to the thousands of readers of the papers Toad and addresses delivered by our distinguished Visitors. There is no division in the forces of evil; nd the forces which contend for the good, though exnibiting varted discipline and choosing human Jeaders tn different fashions or fighting guerilla- Uke, must unite solidly in the presence of the enemy. Jealous squabbling in the ranks only im- Pairs the efficiency of the Christian army and ‘postpones its great victory. ne Charleston, S. C., congratulates itself upon an §ncrease of population amounting to four per cent im tWo years, or at the rate of twenty per cent between one fedefal census and another, ‘This 1s a fine growth, for which the city can af- ford ‘take abundant satisfaction to itself; for It has bad a great deal that ts hard to contend with uring the period covered by the four per cent n- crease. A succession of earthquake shocks like ‘those which Charleston suffered during the fall of Jast year would beenough, in most cases, to re- Guce the population by a large number. AS a matter of fact. however, this expertence seems to have stimulated the activities of Charleston, Father than otherwise, and brought thither a yaultitude of men from the north, without much means, Dut with abundant energy, and anxious to ‘work for whatever pay they could get. Such ac- cessions help wonderfully to build up a com- Aounity, both In population and in material ‘Wealth; and what appeared at oue time to be the saddest of misfortunes may turn out to be a Diesaing in disguise. a ‘The Secretary of War, in that part of his report ‘Which relates to the river front, calls the attention of Congress to the desirability of definite action in Teference to the rebuilding of the Long Bridge. He ‘says that the bridge is a serious obstruction to the fow of water beneath it, will eventually cause a deposit of sediment in the river above, and should De rebuilt in accordance with proper plans Con- gress in considering the matter of a change of rall- Toad routes in the city which will give the B. and 0. road southern connections and a track over the Long Bridge will naturally bear tn mind in that connection the recommendation of the Secretary of War in respect to the bridge. An excellent op- portunity Will be offered to rid the city of the dis advantages and threatened dangers of the present seructure, $2 ‘The week closes, in trade circles, with anen- ‘couraging showing for legitimate enterprises, but ‘ue same feverish condition of the various specu- Jative markets, The record of financial disasters 4s better than that of the corresponding Week last Year by nearly ten per cent. The imports and ex- Ports tor the week show no decided balance on either side, and the purchase and sale of American securitieson the foreign exchanges have kept abouteven.
