Dr. Miller's Leoture at the First Cone gregational Church, Tuesday evening a large and appreciative audience gathered at the First Congregational church, corner of Nineteenth and Davenport streets, to listen to Dr. Miller's interesting and instructive lecture on “Mexico.” He was followed closely by his audience, and was interrupted from time to time by ap- plause.

The waterworks sys. tem of the cities. he said, consisted of a num. ber of men whe aveled from door to door rrying water in leather bottles, He de scribed the wretched condition of the lowest classes, how they do nearly all the work that wied to horses, en- He described the , and gave a fine verbal delin tion of the cathedrals and other grand pub- lic buildings.
