Anniversary of the New York City Tract Bocletys ‘The thirty-first anniversary of the New York City Tract Society and the thirty-fifth of the female branch was celobrated last night, at the Presbyterian church, Madison pquare. Dr. W. Adams presided, inthe absence of the Pre- ident, Rev. Thomas De Witt, D. D. The ceremonies were opened with a prayer by Rev. Dr. Ed, Lathrop. The an- aual report of tho society was read by Rev. Isaac Orchard, by which it appeared that the Society, after the eighth year of its existence, employed missionaries to visit the hospitals, prisons, markets and other places of public re- eortahroughout the city, and distribute tracts. This aya- hom was successfully continued for 22 years. During the Inst year the Society sent out 21 Ward missionaries Sad 1 assistant; 3 missionaries tothe German residents, 1 Wthe French, 1to the Jews, 2 to emigrants and 1to to geamen—making a total of 30 missionaries to the twen- ty-two wards of the city. The average number of visit- ers to families was 1,011. Of tracts distributed in differ- ‘ent languages there were 1,267,458; of Bibles, 907; of tes- taments, 1,114; 5,949 volumes lent out from the ward li- Draries; 2,831 children were gathered in the Sabbath schools, and 529 in other schools ; 216 in Bible classes; 2, induced to anttend church; $92 temperance pledges cobtained ; religious meetings held ; 89 backslid- ors rec! ; 384 persons hopefully converted, and 323 Scnverts untied with evangelion! churches. ‘Tho report of the Treasurer showed that the annual receipts, together ‘with the cash balance on hand, amounted to $17,403 63, aad the expenditures were—for the support of missiona: ries, $15,198 96; for publication of tracts to the American Tract Society $1,845 05; and for printing and other ex- 62; leaving a balance due to the American React seciety of of $964 59. The report of the female branch was read by Mr. S. W. Stebbins, showing that the receipts amounted to $1,636 60, of which $972 10 was paid tothe Society for publications, and $684 50 for colporteurage. Rev. Joun MeCuinTock, D. D., then delivered an address. He said that while in conversation with a Roman Catholic ‘acquaintance the other day ou the division among Chris- tians, an infidel, who was standing by, observed that when + they ‘put an end to the division among different sects of ‘Christians they might begin to talk to inf to infidels about Chris- tianity, And he said to him that that remark would apply as well to humanity as to the Christian religion, because man Was divided into many natures. was no doubt that we all sometimes feel a little uneasy, eee ee selves whether this is the normal state of things, an witches myriad shell remain sige @8. Por Riuneeit he believed in the Catholic church, in the words of the creed called ‘‘apostolic,”” and in the communion of saints. But the holy Catholic church had never yet appeared in the form of one visible organiza- tion, and we all knew what the attempt to form such an organization had ended in. This church cannot a unity of belief ye allimatters. But all those that were in Christ formed the Catholic church, though they ac- knowl no proud hierarchy or visible head. But he thought there should be more active union, more deeds of personal activity and sacrifice, to devclope the Catholic church. We may not agree on the five points of theology but we can agree as to going to the Five Points of 4 York and spreading the word of Christ there. Thecharch loses a great deal of moral power as far as our division into sects interferes with our active virtues. The Protes- tant church has never yet shown her full moral power, though she has done far more than the Catholic church has done or ever can. She has let herself down in her standard of virtue and of the gospel to the standard of the world. It was only br bringing up her Christian ac tivity t the highest point that the church was ever to come out clear as the moon and bright as the sun, yet terrible as an army with banvers. We have no faith i our Christianity. What we wi in God, and beliewing in Him w vors our humblest efforts to assist the poor. This city tract society, he urged, offered the best channel for per- sons of all sects to contribute their money with a com- plete and thorough faith, Upon studying the claims of the society before undertaking this address. he found that there was no ¢ectarianism about him. He found by in- vestigation that it was traly Catholic. As to the mode ia which the money contributed was dispose of, it was one of the most complete organizations of personal visitations: from house to gouse ever known in this or any other country. It the of years, and had gathered experience fiom age. The speaker then referred to the statements of the progress of the society contained in the report, and the amount of temporal the sionaries and Visitors could do to the poor. These agents told of 400 souls saved from bell—saved out of the worst camp of Satan— great army which constitutes the thieves and murderers of the city. The speaker drew attention to the effect of even one visit of a refined wo- mran—one of the 1,011 visitors of this society—to the abode of wretchedness and vice, and yet there were thou sands of such visits paid within one year. He urged the necessity of sustaining a soviety which could effect such good aa this. Tt would be invidious to ask whether one of these angelic visitors was # Presbyterian or hing else; it was enough to see that the divinity of Christ's charity was shining in her face, and that we w she was doing Christ's work among the poor. There was in this city from fifty to eighty thousand children, who, if they had any knowledge of God at all, could lift up their voices to aa throne and say “on this earth there is not one who cares for my soul If there was any class who demand ed om cary, it was these poor helpless children. We cannot all assist them individually, but we can aid this society in doing the good work. e never was a time when the test of our Christianity was more strongly ap. plied to the rich of New York than at this season, and uiay God strengthen them in standing A brief address was then delivered Dy Dr. A. D. Gansk in bebalf of the Tract Society, after which a collection ‘was taken up in aid of the funds of the society, Dr. Anas then addressed the meeting, urging the ne cessity of supporting the Tract Society, notonly because of the spiritual comfort it was the means of bringing to the hearta of the poor and (riendless, but the physical good it extended to the persona! comforts of poor and destitute families. A bymn was then sung by the whole congregation. and after a benediction by the President the meeting se parated.

BrRoLaRY—Waegrx ake TH Potsck!—The house of Mr. Thomas King, No. 180 East Nineteenth street, was enter. ed by burglars on Saturday night, the entrance being effected through a front basemept window. The base- mentand kitchen closets were thoroughly searched, and such articles as were too bulky for the gentlemen's con venience were left uutouched. All the silver ware, china, casters, napkin rings, knives and forks, &c., were selected, and the contents of the caster bottles emptied on the pantry floor. The gentlemen were evidently frightened before finishing their labors.

At the close of the stock market yesterday there was a downward tendency in prices. The amount of business transacted at the Stock Exchange during the week was comparatively small, and very little progress was made by speculators for a rise. Tho fuct is, that beyond the Limite of Wall street there is no demand for stocks. Money is plenty enough, and, on the right kind of securities, cheap enough, but capitalists are by no means disposed to pul their surplus means in railroad stocks. The public mind bas become so strongly impressed with the truth of the statement, that the annual reports put forth by the various companies are made up with an eye solely to the misropresentation of facts, that very little confidence is placed in them, and the great majority take them for just about what they are worth. They are in reality not entitled to the least confidence. It ean hardly be supposed for » moment that the New York Central Railroad Company, until actually obliged, from a ruined credit, would make a report admitting the bauk- ruptey of the concern. Its credit i* sustained whoily by making it appear that its earnings are cqnal to all of ite expenditures. The same influences are brought to bear upon all companies. The Frie, Michigan Southern, Read ing, Illinois Central, all show in their annual reports large net earings, but with this they cannot disguise the f that in their finance in reality bankrupt.
