ADDRESS UPON TEE PRXVENTION OF PAUPERISM AND CRIME. The Rev. C. F. Barnard of Boston read a most interesting and able paper upon the means for the Prevention of Pau fsm and Crime. He said: The idea of preventing paupe nad crime is & common idea. The simple Indian ¢ &, who give up the lnuhge il tho tribe, o that they may become good In Spartans thought. Tuey had an idea that to from pauperism and crime, they were to clothe their teachers 4n amartial form. They took their promising boys and put them under the training of soldiers that Sparta migft be a mar- tial power and not enfecbled by pauperism nor by erime. On the wost side of Davis's Straits lived the Innuifs. They bave a tradition that the Great Spirit created a perfect man whose pame was Innu: and these simple people of the frozen circle teach their young children faith in the life that now is aud prepargthem for the privations of the future by directing {thom toimitate the perfection of this perfect man.

PESIDENT AXD GENTLEMEN, MEMBERS OF THIS CONVEY. w10 1 have been asked to speak at this meeting on the sub- gt of the Application of Design to American Manufacturers, @nd Thave willingly accepted the invitation; not, by any means as thinking myself fittest or very fit to treat the matter, ut only that it may be opened and a beginning somehow made a & disoussion which ought not to be longer delayed. Deeply as am interested in the subject of art, and much as I have at Reart the improvement of our manufactures by the application ‘of good native design to them, I yet reckon the subject may t a8 by no means of equal importance with many of those that will be consi: here. 1 am myself apt to think tho artist ought not to feel quite comfortablé when plying his ‘wvoeation in times, which are so much out of joint.
