V In almost all large cities, among the
many other good works that have been
inaugurated by the Young Men's Chris
tianAssociation, is that of establishing
what might perhaps be called grat
uitous intelligance offices. : In other
words, a nlace where those out of
employment and those desiring workmen
can alike leave their address, while the
officers ofthe association use their endeav
ors to bring each to the knowledge of the
other. Experience having shown that this
method is far preferable, and productive
of more favorable results, than indiscrim-
inaite charity, the example thus set might I
he followed to advantage by many smaller I
places.
At the present season, even in our own
town, there are a comparatively large
number of persons out of employment,
wLse enforced idleness is productive of
BUffering to themselves and their families

a nlaceof this kind? The details could
be easily arranged and that with but little
expense, while if even one family was
relieved by the means.the reward would be
ample. The suggestion is commended to
the notice of the members of the associa

"Dickens In bis Study."
A Reporter of the New York Standard
lately paid a visit to the Tenth street
Studio Building and, among others, the
rooms of our former townsman Wni. H.
Beard. The following, which is clipped
from the report, will be read with interest
by all bis friends:

In the evening Mr. W ells preached a
cbildrena sermon, which was highly inter
esting and instructive, not alone to the
boys and girls, but to "children of a larger
growth." The opening anth cm was sung
by tlie members of the school who were
seated at the left of the chancel. "Gloria
in Excelsis," (Wilson) and "Borum est"
(Mozenthale) were sang by the choir, and
I "Beuedicte," by the children
The most beautiful part of the exercises
.. . i : : 1 1, .,1.1 .......
was the singing of the old tune, "Shout

"Praise the Lord with the Harp," and "I

day morning the Holy Communion was ob-
served, and in the evening the regular
services took place. The music was of the
same excellent character as was that of
the day before.
The festivities at the Congregational
Church came off Monday evening. At an
early hour, the teachers,pupils and friends
of the school assembled in the Conference
room and church parlor. Several Christ
mas songs were sung and the Superintendent,-
Mr. Tisdel, addressed those
present in a few words appropriate to the
occasion. A letter was read from Mr,
Haydn, in which he expressed his feelings
caused by being absent from the school
where he loved most to be, and though not
with bis friends in body, he assured them
he was in heart. Several others made
short addresses. Mr. G. II. Uiggeus was
presented with a very line water set, con
sisting of pitcher, tray and goblets. This
was, so Mr. Tisdel said in presenting it,
given as a slight token of the appreciation
that was felt for Mr. H's efforts in conduc
ting the musical exercises for over three
years. The set, which was of silver was
of elegant design, being frosted over a
large part of the surface, while the nied
alions were raised and carved work. The
tray; was beautifully inscribed. "G. H.
Higgins from the Congregational S. S.
Christmas, 1851." A finer gift, it would be
difficult to find, nor could those having
the matter in cbarge,foimd a more deserv
ing recipient. After spending au hour
and over very pleasantly, the teachers and
scholars passed up to the school room.
Here there was a supper for all. Here also
was another surprise. Mrs. Clark, a mem
ber of Mrs. Batebam's Bible Class, arose
and on behalf of the class presented to
theirf teacher a line picture well framed.
Mrs. Bateuam replied, giviug her thanks
and expressing her opinion that she was
more benefited by teaching than they by
being taught. After the supper had been
'disposed with," a few moments were en
joyed socially ;and then the entertainment
was over. All voted that it was a happy
gatherin
.The Christmas celebration at the Bap-
with their friends, had assembled in that
pleasant lecture room in the basement of
the church, it was with happy hearts and
good feelings. If the evening had been a
pleasant one the room would have been
crowded, as it was, all were comfortably
seated, Coldness and formality were
thrown aside and it seemed as if everyone
thought his or her business to be tne en
tertainment of some one else. The exer
cises began with music and as usual the
effect of the music, was only to make all,
old and young, merrier than before. Then
followed pantomimes, tableaux, and rec
itations, all ot which were excellent. But
the happiest feature was to come; after
the miscellaneous programme had been
enacted, the Superintendent, Mr. Brink,
arose and wituja neat little address,presen
to Miss Kitty Marvin a beautifully
bound copy of the Scriptures, in token of
their appreciation of the estimable manner
in which she had executed the duties de
volved upon her in the routine of Sabbath
School labor. Miss II. was of course- ta
ken "completely by surprise." It was now
Mr. Brink's turn to be equally taken by
surprise. The present received was "En

Ing the school. Mr. Webster then arose
and in au original and ingenious manner,
made a very good presentation speech,
ending.by handing to Mr. Stone an ele
gaut dressing gown, with several other
articles equally valuable and useful. Mr.
S. tendered bis thanks in a few words,and
here the presentations ended. After sing
ing, supper was passed, aud after that all
enjoyed . themselves socially until the
breaking up time.
At the M. E. Church a large number
gathered to take part in the festivities of
the occasion. Everyone had a good time,
and in this it was like all the other cele
brations, but there were peculiar and
pleasant features not found at any of the
other churches. The evening , selected
for the meeting was that of Monday. There
was a magnificent tree, laden with good
things for the young people, while to add
to the interest ofthe entertainment music
was provided, and those in attendance
were pleased with hearing addresses from
Rev. Mr. Yeomans and others
At the Cstbolic Church the regular
Christmas exercises took place, consist
ing of morning, noon and evening worship.

mass of the year.

turmoil. Man has here built n mart iu the

now tu3 hills are covered Willi out great
blanket of snow, which Is tli ifltitl Into I lie
most strange hiiiI fantiisilc I'nrniH, mid
hangs over the ledges like Hie folds of u
enormous curtain. From Ihe summit
Mount Pisgah there issues a great volume
of black smoke, whicli haiisis like a null
over the pure eli.d hill, and is iu strange
and forcible couirnst with the glittering,
dazzling whiteness of the snow beneath,
The smoke is frtuii the two tall chimneys
at the terminus of the inclined plane, lint
let us make the ascent, to the summit of
Mount Pisgah. An omnibus which leaves
the "Mansion House," which In- the wav.
is kept by your former townsman, E. T.
isooth, and the accommodating clerk of
w hich is William lL White, also formerly
of your place at intervals during the day,
will take us to the foot of the plane. We
take seats and are driven along the street,
up a road and when it seems? as if we
must have made the entire ascent, we
alight. There is a small car here, w hich
will accommodate ten or a dozen passen
gers. V e get in w ith several others and
the car is drawn bv the Stationary enmne
to the top of the hill. An old gciitlemuu
whose acquaintance we have made tells us
that the road from top to bottom is in
length over two thousand three hundred
feet, the elevation nearly seven hundred
feet. The ride seems perilous, but there
are used all the precautions possible to
render accidents impossible. Between
the rails on which the car runs there is a
rachet-rail. into which, if anv accident
hould hapiien. a stout arm drops, which
is appended to the rear of the car, and
thus holds it at the elevation gained.
Having reached the summit ot" Mount Pis
gah the conductor takes his stand at the
rake and we proceed bv the uower of our
own weight down another inclined plane,
without the use of steam. This is the fa
mous "Gravity Road." Alter a ride of
twenty-live miles upon a rail-roiitl. ami
ith no locomotive, we find ourselves in
the same village we started from, and no
more than a mile distant from the plat e
where we first got into the ear. The ob
ject for which this road was built, was to
torra a way in w Inch coal could be brought
from Sharp aud Black Mountains (nine
miles back from the river) to a convenient
place for shipping, of course there is a
double track, one for empty and the other
for laden cars.
Something that surprises every traveller
is tlie great number of these trai ns and the
immense number of cars in them. At
nearly every moment one mav see two or
three of these trains ascending or descend-
nz the mountains: windmsr about them
like huge serpents, with head and tail both
lost to view. This statement will not
seein so strange when we make another.
The trains coming down have often a hun-
reti cars, and those "going up" have
twice this number. One may obtain such
position as will enable one to see the
rushing Lehigh, the canal with its surface
nrumea. save by the treauentlv passing
boats, and the various railways, with a
busy street near by. On all ot these go
swiftly orslowly. as the case mav be loads
ofthe biaek wealth of our laud, for the
foundry, factory and the parlor. There is
shipped from this place nearly sixty
thousand tons of the precious mineral per
eeis. seiuom nas it been our lot to see
village or city where there is such a con
trast between the appearance of the
streets upon Sunday aud through the
eek. I'pon work days all is bustle and
usiness. When the Sabbath comes, there
comes with it the sound of the bell from
the picturesque little church nestling be
tween the hills, calling all to worship, who
win come. Ana tne sturdy miner cleaned
om the evidences of toil during the week
has his day of rest with the overseer, the
owner, and the community in general.

: The Revival.
Editor of Journal. Have you been to
the 'Revival" now going forward in this
illage? If not, you have denied yourself
rare and instructive entertainment, and
ought by all means to improve the tirst
opportunity,'
ot mat l wouia- intimate tnatyoti ore
personally or editorially in need ot reno
vation, out tne editor ot the "'best paper
n town" (is that a doubtful compliment? )
ought not to let one of the nearly extinct
ustnms ot a Dye-gone generation, come
and go without special attention, I fear
that manv of the moral readers of your
moral weekly may neglect to avail them
selves of the high privilege which the oc
casion makes possible. No doubt the
fashionably religious, or in other words,
the religious "after a fashion." will secret
ly turn up their refined nostrils at the men
tion of an old-fashioned season of religious
warmth and earnestness.
There is too much noise and too much
reality about these revival met-tings to
harmonize, with the feelings of those who
have mildly embraced some fashionable
Church, to improve their social standing
or to increase their trade.
It seems to be impossible to carrv on
these special meetings without some
noise, and without some little excitement.
When friends aud neighbors are seen
standing in imminent danger of impending
ruin, the church need not apologize for
putting forth vigorous efforts for their res
cue, rne renmng liiuuenoes or weaitn
and good society threaten to refine away
tne spirit ot the gospel, and leave only the
lorms and husks, it is tneretore re
freshing to see a generous exhibition of
emotion, sincerity aud zeal in the good
cause.
As a matter of art Istle nicety, no doubt
tne auperrCxqnisito might point out. some
defects - iu the revival. The singing,
though full of pathos, is undoubtedly a
poor musical performance, and it could
not reasonably ue expected that a strong
vigorous pieacuer woiiiu sing less vigor
ously than be talks, even thouirli he knew
that the melody was sacrificed to the em
phasis. Then the relined listener might
stiL'L'est t
physical type, and more an exhibition of
muscular than intellect nal Christianity,
Bv tlie fruits we must ludne. If this crit
icism is just, and sinners arc convinced
by the physical style of persuasion, it only
proves that men may be pulled into the ark
of safety, when you' cannot coax them in
with flowers ot rhetoric.
Again 1 have heard the criticism that
the revivalist deals in slang phrases and
seeks to sunn k tne gospel rones to nttne
sinner instead of expanding the sinner to
the lull stature ot the gospel pattern
This Is unjust, and were it true, it ou-rlit
to be a matter of congratulation, if words
and phrases that have heretofore been ex.
clusively employed in the devil's service,
can be used to a better purpose; and I can
sae no harm in putting a robe ot righteous
ness on a man even if it is a war-Id too large
for nun and aracs a trine on the sround.
Perhaps 1 have said more than enough to
induce tne editor ot the. "best paper" and
ins enterprising readers to give tnis sub
ject immediate attention, and if such re
sult is secured, l snail be tuny compensa
ted for the time thus bestowed. I trust I
have not raised expectation to a pitch
that will lead to disappointment. 1 do not
recommend the entertainment to those in
search of exquisite music, or an intellect
nat least, or a display oi logical statement .
it will, however, recall memories of the
olden time, and inspire a, respect for the
H'ryeiif zeal mill (ensuing enthusiasm witu

that we need more bible in our legislative

epts and teachings instituted into the
minds of our statesman and citizens be
fore they have become hardened and call

1 do not know what lie refers to bv en

festivals especially iu this place, are as
civil and respectable as tiie numerous
'hurch festivals "and mite society meet
ings for playing "snap up"and pussy in the
orner, and certainly as respectable as the
account given iu the bible of the Patriarch
lavid before the ink of the Lord. As to
he need l more bibles there is no book
extant that is as common and pleiiliotts us
he bible. The American Uible and Tract
Society have had their agents iu everv
town and hamlet in the country, until
many laniHies ate better supplied with
bibles than food. The question then
arises in the mind is it the want of bibles
that is the cause of intemperance and oth
er vices 1 Under the strictures of the
Maine liquor law. w hisky has been bourht
and sold in bible forms, and I will venture
assertion that hardly an intemperate fam
ily can be found outside of Catholic fami
lies, but what have got either a bible or
estament. John ii. Hunter, as he was
bout to pay the penalty for murder, de-
larcd "1 believe in the Father. Son and
Holy Ohost." A knowledge of the bible
nd a belie! m it, and a belief m sectari-
n dogmas did not deter John 11. Hunter
from commit ting one ofthe greatest crimes
known to man. We can hardly pick up a
new paper but what weread of some
h functionary of the Church, beimr in-
olvcd in some one of the higher crimes
iz. murder,! noest. adultery, seduction, i r
robbery. If the bible and its precepts
ave sucu a potent influence in restraining
crime, why are these very teachers and
functionaries of the church who have such
abundant opportunity to be brought under
us liiMiiciice, not res, ra. ii u iroin commit
ing these great crimes. 1 think we shall
have to look somewhere else than the want
t bibles for the cause of crime and cor
ruption. Ignorance and extravagance I
think are the two leading causes ot intem
perance, crime and corruption. We can
look for very much ofthe crimes in the
eonntry in the extravagant fashions of sc-
lety, and this is iiinuitested no less in the
hurch than out. (to into a fashionable

o endure it while others are not, and iu
their endeavors to keep up appearances

who are better able to maintain all this ex
travagance, become bankrupt financially
and morally . Beta would have us under
stand that respectable people patronize
ice in our midst. Tlio verv face of his as
sertion is false from the fact that they
would not be respectable. Some it is true
have always considered innocent amuse
ments in the young to be wicked and crim

an improved Revolving Light Coal Stove,
all set up and In running order, which we
thought to be the best thing we had yet
seen in that line, and possessing advan
tages which cannot fail to please all who
see it. There ave two tiers of ising glass
windows; one tier in the usual place, the
others around the bnse; so that the grate.
instead of being closely shut up, is in plain
view, and from which nearly as much
heat is radiated a from the upper cham
ber. . The grate Itself will revolve, and the
little doors surrounding It can be opened
at any time and the dead coal and clinkers
be removed without anywise disturbing
the fire. The draft, too, is quite different,
more simple, and better regulated than in
other stoves we have tried of similar pat
terns. The room gets the benefit of th
whole heat of the burning coal fnom the
bottom of the stove up. If you want to
see a nice stove, go and have a look at thia
and judge of it for yourselves. The new
