He believed that Aosta, remem- bering the history of Maximilian, would still. decline the crown of Spain. General Prim replied that there was no similarity in the cages of Mexico and Spain.

They cail upon assocla- tions to promptly make quarterly reports; to peti- ton the Legisiatare for an increase of allowance to discharged eruminals trom the Penitentiary co guard against the lapse into crime. They recommend the formation of an association in the Penitentiary; the observance of the second Tuesday in November aa a day of prayer for blessing the associational work. Zanes Villo was selected lor tke next place of meet- ing. Fie greater part of the day was ocenpled in the discussion of questions ‘ouching We formation and maintenance of associations in sinall towns, and the best means of raising iuads. Relative to the iatier Quesuon, ® resolution was adopted declaring that the best way te approact business men was boldly and confidently, not a8 beggars—not losing claim on results uiready secured.

PATRIOTISM AND POVERTY. Among the numerous cases of destivution, disease and death occasionea by the war 1t 1s dificult to conceive 4 more sad, sorrowtul and heartrending one than that of a family named Mulvy, tn Newark, N. J, ‘The fumily came trom England twenty years age. For fiiteen years Mr. Mulvy nas been troubled witt weakness of the spine, rendering bim entirely, helpless at least two-thirds of the time. His wife, likewise, for twenty-eight years, ever since the birth of her first child, has been belpless to a greater or lesser extent. Of three sons, on whom they solely depeniiod for support, one was killed at the battle of Chan rsvilie, while another died on the march from sickhess contracted in the army after hav: rough rieen battles, and the third ai lust April of sickness contracted in the service. For years past, What with sickness on all sides and @ certainty of not over twenty dollars @ month from pensions and other soure 8 misery, tho want, the poverty aud the absolute sutfering, God only Knows what the poor people bad to undergo. For one of the sons, the last, they have never received a cent of pension. Application was made for it last March, but no notice has since been taken by the Washing. ton authorities. In the meantime the amount due the family by the natlon—some $700—would cer- tainly have lifted them from abject penury, if noe have saved one of the sons. In the name of decency if not of charity, surely this is a case that demands governmental attention. ‘The poor people were near being turned into Uke sureet the other day for non-payuent of rent. x Died.
