THE GLEANERS' SOCIETY held their annual entertainment in the parlors of Fort street Church on Thursday evening. According to promise the entertainment begun punctually at 7 o'clock by a very pretty piano duct by Miss IT. Dick son and II. Ilillebrand. Then came a recitation by Mrs. W. Hopper, which we could not hear owing to the noise of people talking at the doors and moving about. Miss C. Castle played Schullz's Sclavonic song as a pianoforte solo to the great satisfaction of the audience, who would have liked to have heard it a little longer. Then came the event of the evening, the Fan Drill, by teu little Kate Greenaways, from 3 to 8 years of age, five dressed in pink and white and Ave in blue and white. Miss Sarah King superin tended the drilling, and Miss Moss 'rjjan played the musical accompani ment. So great was the desire to see the beautiful and "bewitching sight that many people got up from their seats and y crowded forward to obtain a belter view. The coquetry of the movements of the little dar lings was both surprising and en chanting. Miss King deserves great credit for tlio perfection which they attained in only one month's prcticc. Seven of them were from the Kindergarten and three from Fort btrcet School. After this came a vocal solo, " Kisses tell the t:le," from Mrs. Cruzan, which struck home to all hearts and was vigorous ly applauded. Mrs. Adams gave a recitation from Henry VIII., which twas well received. Tho. quartette, which ended the programme, was next given. After this the screens were drawn aside, and the business of the even ing commenced. Cakes and coffee, ice-cream and sandwiches filled up the void pleasantly, and fortified one. for ,a stroll round the fancy table, the doll table, the candy stand and the flower table. Many purchases were made, and social conversation and fuu'indulged in till about 10 o'clock. The receipts amounted, to over 8500. The Annual meeting of the Y. M. C. A. was held on Thursday evening in tho Bethel Vestry. After the introductory prayer the minutes of the last meeting were read and confirmed. Balloting for olliccrs for the ensuing year took place with the following resuct: A. F. Judd, President; C. M. Cooke, Vice President; F. J. Lowrey, Secretary; T. G. Thrum, Treasurer; T. II. Davis nnd II. Wnterhoube, Directors, The retiring Treasurer Mr. F. Eckley rend his report from which it appeared the bulanco in hand was 855,49 but with an outstanding account and sub scriptions this would be reduced to about ?5. It was accepted and filed. Owing to tho Secretary stating that no papers of previous years could be found tho President asked that all persons having records or papers belonging to the Association hand them in as soon as possible. Tho Recording Secretary then read his report from which it appeared that 10 monthly, 1 annual, nml3tnccl al meetings had been held during tho year and that tho average number in attendance was 32. Twety-eight how members had been added dining the year, one had ithdrawn and two had been removed by death, lie a so made an eloquent appeal for the appointment of a General Secre tary. It was passed Hint all the papers, addicscs, &c, rclaJng to this an nual meeting aiid tha dedication of die building lie edited by Captain Bray and published as a special sup plement to the Fi'icml. Votes of thanks to Miss Jennie Parkos for her services as pi miht during the past year, to Mr. Duuseoinbe, and r. Damon, and to Mr. A. Dickson for hi gift of a Bible Gallery, ilhu ratcd bvtDorc, were then pasted. Messrs. Thrum and V. W. Hal were appointed as Furnishing Com mittee for the new building, and the meeting closed after a prayer from Dr. Damon. THE NAYEZDN1K is a composite-built steam corvette, of 1310 tons burthen and 250 horse power nominal (1700 horse-power indicated.) Her length is 214 feet, beam 32 feet, and she has 15 feet below the water-line. Her arma ment consists of 7 gnus (1 10 7 centimctrc and 3 large C-inch), A Ilotchkiss mitrailleuses, 1 Ermstrong and 1 tot p 'do gun. The charge for the largo guns is 20 lbs. powder and a shot weighing about 112 lbs. ; for the small gnn, 5 lbs. powder and a 25-lb. shot. She carries Whitehead torpedoes. She was built in 1879, and this is her second commission. She left Russia on the 25th of last July and spent three months in the Mediter ranean, arriving off the const of Egypt just after the bombardment of Alexandria, and remaining there till the close of the war. She will proceed on her way to Hongkong some time next week, where she ex pects to meet Admiral Kopitoff, now on his way from Sydney to Hong kong. She will then proceed to the Japanese station, and remain there the balance of her three years' com mission. She is to be followed hero by tiie Skobeleff, a much linger cor vette earning 8 guns. Her highest spend is 13V knots, and she made the fastest passage .under sail from Valparaiso here 3G days. On her former commis sion she went from the Cape of Good Hope to Batavia under sail in 28 days. The pyrnvilone used in the torpedoes is of Russian manufac ture. The torpedoes were manu factured in the arsenals at Kronstndt under the supervision of Engineer Ivanoff and Lieutenant Nidcrmuller, who have received many premiums for the improvements they have made in these modern engines of warfare. The guns are also of Rus sian manufacture, by Obukoff. She canies a ilOOO-candh-power electric light forward on thct system of Siemens 'and Gulnki, worked by a Dolgoroukoff engine of 8 horse power". The glass difluscr in front is in concent! ic circular prisms,, on the system of Flniu'iil. Altogether the Nayczdn'k is well fitted with all the newest appliances, and under her present cap ain and ofllccrs will, no doubt, do good ser vice for her country. bfcUPPING J.NOTKS. On Thursday afternoon as tho schooner Uilama was coming along side the Loipsio with coal she broke her topmast agahbt one of the fore mast yards of the Leipsio. The cabin of the D. C.

Wc have since learned that wc were mistaken in saying that they were members of the Chinese Christian Church and we regret exceedingly that we should have thus cast an uncalled for aspersion on Hint Church. . . Mit. J. L. Richardson, of the Waianae Plantation, sent up the fol lowing particulars of tho accident which occurred at the plantation yesterday: A train of 11 cars were conveying the men to work when one oftthe Chinese fell off and thc'cirrran over hud broke his arm ; he is also considerably bruised and scratched about the body and face, by' the axle-box. He worked on tho plan tation some years ago, but went to China and brought out some friends, nnd had resumed work only four days ago.
