A Feakful Cap of TJKSTirrTroN A
Man Lies Ukbituikb in a Mourr for Ti:n IHys
and thh Family in a State hp Starvation.
One of the moht hoiirtromlmc; case ol destitu
tion we bi.vc ever been cnlierl upon to chronicle,
is one whi:h was brought to lignt yes'.eMav by
infans of a visit paid by one of tlic vi-Uor of
the Home MitslotiRry Society to a house In the
lower section oi the city. The visitor, on enter
ing the premie, dlo'voiT. I the whole family
in almost the lact stages ( Miirvatiou, nnd the
horror of the secne was heightened ty the dis
covery of the npimlline lact Hint the father of
the family, who hud tlipil ten day ago, was still
nnbuned, irom lack of th" tiorcpsury weans to
defray the expenses of sennit lire.
I The aillicted fiimlly, by dcnnvinn theaiselycs
of the simple t'ool necesarv to support lite, ani
by pawning tlie lew thins th';y owned, hud been
able to rai-e about ten dollarx, With which sum
they secured the service ot an undertaker, who
piepared the hody for interment, but reinsert to !
proceed further until the whole bill lor the
burial was paid him In mfvntire. This the poor
people could not do, and nt the time ot the visit
of the humane member of the Home Missionary
Society jeoterdny, the (tenth ot the other mem
bers ot the family from abject want ceomed im
minent. The drca ltul situation of atlairs was
discovered in the mornine, and the visitor lost
no time in timliny the undertaker, whose re
finiiements were speeddy met, the amount ad
vanced, und the body atj,ouce decently interred.
This cute is ceitaiuly oue of an extraordinary
character, but we are as-ured that at the pre
sent time many of the ile-ervinir poor are sui
teiing creat hardships from lack of employ
ment and other causes, which have reduced
many of them to penury and utter want. Our
citizens have only to kuovv, we are rratitied to
vay, that such destitution exists in our midst, in
order to relieve it; and to their kind care we
commit the pojr and sml'erinc. many of them
the widows and orphans of our brave soldiers
in the late war, and all of them entitled to our
warmest commiserstiou and attention, particu
larly at this inclement season. Mr. Thomas T.
Mason, the Treasurer of the Aoristion. will
receive contributions for tuc relief of those
under the care ot the Mis-ion.
.Celebration at National Hall.
National Hall presented a most brilliant spec
tacle last eveuius;, on the occasion ot the trien
nial celebration and concert ot the pupils of the
schools ol the Christian Brothers. The occa
sion was ono of much interest to all assembled,
and the immense aud enee present retired at
the close of the celebration highly delighted
with the evening's entertainment, and lully
satisfied with the elliciency and beneficent
results emanating from the establishment of the
schools ol the Christian Brothers. The exercises
commenced with an overture by the tine band
of St. Michael's Church, and this was followed
by a lengthy programme, consisting of recita
tions, songs, trios, duets, and instrumental
Eieces, the latter perlormed entirely by the
and, composed of small boys belonging to the
institution. Alter a chorus by the pupils, tne
following1 named young gentlemen distinguished
themselves, although all acquitted thcuiselvi s
very creditably: Master E. J. Ryan recited
"The Last iriends" in excellent style. This
was immediately followed by the recitation of
' The Spanii-h Champion," by Master I. tJ.
McEvoy, who did well.
Master J. McQnald recited "The Dyine Hero"
admirably, and "The Patriot's Vindication" was
equally well icndcred by Master J. II. Comber.
A dialogue, entitled "The lmprestment of aa
American (Seaman, " was well recited by Masters
.1. McEvoy and J. Bradley; ' The Celtic Tongue"
was well dUposed of by Master John F. Lvnch;
and "The Union," by Master P. McOettieran,
was a tine ellort. Altogether, the celebration
was a complete success, and reflects much
credit on this deserving and popular relisrious
institution, wbic'j is con lined to the Catholic
Church, Brothet Oliver, and others connected
with these schools, conducted the exercises.
This Central Station -Police Magistrate
Beitler yesterday committed a negro man named
Charles Williams, charged with the larceny of a
