able to answer the inquiry °f hia frlend\s to who
suggested the happy thought of an old man s |
home It was due to three young ladies, who,
some years since, on a visit to the Widows Asy

though they had nothing but faith to fall back
upom He recurred to the idea expressed by toe
previous speaker, that the sympathies of too
' community tend more towards a fostermg eare
of chUdhood than of old age. The Bible incul
cates veneration for the aged. ' The glory of _ the
old Is the-hoary head; “thou Shalt nse up scuth

ought to gather around the trembling forms of
toe aged and protect them from the storms of
Bev. J. Addison Henry, In closing the
proceedings, remarked that although a post
poned meeting was seldom apt to be a success,
yet he was glad to Eee so many present; it was
an interesting occasion, bnt especially to those
who were seated before him, toe Inmates of the
“Home," who always looked forward with plea
sure to their approaching anniversary. The
building which was occupied by the
institution was originally a P ul
dwelling, and had been altered
to suit. It now accommodated sixteen persons,
and could shelter but four or five more. The
Managers, looking to the future enlargement of
their means and usefulness, had purchased addi
tional ground adjoining their present location.
They believed that if they had deferred doing so,
toe opportunity o£ adding to their limits Would
have been lost. It was a prudent step, and al
though the Board had incurred a debt of $19,000,
there was every reason to believe that it would

of toe Home. r _
The Houße expenses were about @2oU per
month. These were defrayed by the annual sub
scriptions, such other collections as the lady
managers were enabled to make, and from mo
ney which was occasionally sent to them. He
would suggest that a colldction be made. We
■do not know what amount waß contributed, but
the following contributions were read from slips
by the Speaker: One of $l,OOO from a gentle
man, whose name was not given. Mr. David
Milne who we understood had already been-tf
liberai benefactor, pledged himself for $lOO an
nually; another gentleman announced himself as
& contributor of ®lOO annually for five years.
The singing of a hymn and a benediction
closed the exerciseß.
The institution was visited by quite a number
of the audience, and more perfect neatness and
good order in all the arrangements could not be
found. Some of the old men pointed with pride
to a full set of “Littell’b Living Age,” which had
been presented by some kind friend. Many of
our readers are in possession of duplicate vol
umes. or booke, which they would perhaps wil
lingly part with, and which would be prized
the old men.
'We take the following forms from the Annual
Keport; it may. prove useful to those inclined to
manifest an interest in this excellent charity.

“Old Man's Home,” of the City of Philadelphia,

Obdisation Sicbvicks. Last evening the
Second Reformed Presbytery of Philadelphia
ordained the Rev. Matthew Galley to the office of
the Holy Ministry, and installed him pastor of
Third Reformed Presbyterian Church, corner
Oxford and Hancock streets, Kensington. Rev.
S. W. Crawford, D. D., presided. The sermon
was preached by the Rev. John Donglas, D. D.,
of Pittsburgh, from the text, 2 Tim. iv. 2: Preach
the word. ’
After the sermon Dr. Crawford propounded
the Constitutional questions, and olferea up the
ordaining prayer, during which Mr. Galley was
net apart to the office, of the Holy Ministry by
Ihellaying on of the "laying on of the hands of
the Presbytery.
Bev. John McMaster, D. D., Princeton, In
diana, delivered the charge to the Pastor, and
Rev. A. G. Wylie, Duanesburgh, New York,
charged the people. The congregation was dis
missed with the benediction by the ncwly-or
dained pastor. '
There was a very large congregation, the aisles
and vestibules being well tilled, and the exer
cises were solemn and impressive.
Domos op a Swindles.— Severiil comply ta •
were made at too Control Station during yeater
day and to-day in regard to toe doings of an Indi
vidual who goes by toe namo of Charles Norton,
who has carried on pretty ctfenrive swindUng
operations. Ho leases a store and house for five
years, and toon has.too store fitted > up In an ele
gant stple for the confectionery buslnem When
toe work is well under wap ho advertises for a
lady to charge of toe store and re
side in ' • the house. The . salary
Is fixed at a very liberal amount, bnt $lOO is
first required os security. Upon one of theßtores
which had been taken in this manner toe work
ordered In alterations, <fcc., would cost at leaßt
$1,500. On toe other stories there was not so
much of an outlay. Yesterday work_was pro
gressing on: no leas than six stores. No. money
has been paid to the carpenters, and they are
also victims of the swindler. As far as known
five women have been dnped. A widow lady with
six children had only $lO. She gave them to toe
fellow and promised to raise the remaining $9O
when she got into the house. Another widow,
whose hnsband has been dead but a fewtmontos,
lost $lOO. A woman moved Into a house yester
day, after putting up her $lOO as security, tmd
soon discovered that she had been duped, and
that she would have to move again.
The fellow who has so successfully carried on
these operations is described as a small, thick
set man,' abont 50 years of age, with a very red
face. He Is neatly dressed in black clothes, and
wears a tall black silk hat.
Freaks or Lightning. —The house of Benja
min Miilon, at Chestnut HUI, was struck by
lightning during toe very severe storm which
prevailed at toat place on Tuesday afternoon
last. There appears to have been two strokes;
oho went down toe water-spout, damaging it
considerably, and toe othor went, down toe
chimney. The latter entered one of toe rooms,
scattered things about pretty lively, completely
blackened a mirror and went out through the
floor between Mr. and Mrs. MUlon. Neithor of
these persons suffered from the effects of the
lightning, although they made a very narrow
escape.
Interesting Temperance Meeting.— Last
evening a festival was given under toe auspices
of the Philadelphia Division S. of T., at the hall
Tenth and Chestnut streets. Thomas M. Cole
man, Eeq., presided, and after alluding eloquently
to the good accomplished by the temperance men
of the city, and particularly to \toe work per

speeches. Cakes and ice cream were served tip
in great profusion, and temperance odeß snug by

mille. and appear in his original character of “Mr.
William Jones,” in Jones's Baby. Craig will give

Injins.” Robson will sing “Timmy Boyle.”
Craig “Peter Gray." Robson will-warble “In

Robin.” Mr. Robson will nIBO enact tho original
6cene introduced by him in Rosedale ; or, the Rifle
Ball. The admission price is half h aolliir, but aS
seventy-five cents will secure a seat we advise

Robbers at. Work.— The house-breakers-have
commenced their operations quite earnestly m
Camden and viilnlty. A night or two • since toe
residence ©1 Hon. John F. Starr, In Newton
township, was entered, and a few spoonß and
napkin rings were taken. The burglars became
alarmed ana decamped, without getting enough
to pay for their trouble. -' On the ipUovong night
on attempt was made to force an entrance into
toe house of Albert W. Markley, ‘ Esq., on Coop
| er street, bnt without succeeding, too robbers
hastily re treatea. ...... „ _
" Pobt No. 6.—Post No. 6, Grand Army of toe
Repnbllc, in Camden, Is weekly receiving a large
number of members, preparatory for too open
ing of the coming campaign. This Post Is com
posed of veternnbattle-searred heroes who have
I bravely breaßted the tide of war, and tons aided
I In saving toe life of too-nation. They are all
sound Union men, and will contribute largely in
I the work of carrying toatcity for the Republican
1 ticket*
The Berry Season.—' The amount of berries
touß far raised at Hammonton, Vineland and
I other places along the Camden and Atlantic and
West Jersey Railroads, this season, far exceeds
I toe quantity raised in ainy former year. The straw
I berry crop has been abundant, while the rasp
berry and blackberry promise an equal yield.
This shows to what advantageous cultivation toe
sandy'soil of South JerSef can be carried.
Laying or a Corner Stone. —On toe 24 th
Inst., on the hccasion of laying toe-epnier atone

I abont two bundred members.
I An Improvement Postponed.— The Directors
I of toe Camden Horse Car Railroad, in conse
quence ofthe high price of material, &c., have
concluded to delay commencing work on it for
I an indefinite period of time.
The Latest Novelty in Ladies Hats.— The
•‘Rip Van Winkle" Sun Hat, just brought out by
Messrs. Wood & Cary, 725 Chestnut, Is the most popn
lar novelty of the season, and isjust tile thin# for the
country and seashore. The demand for them Is im
mense: Messrs. W.&C. still continue to sell-their
elegant line of Fancy Bonnets and Hats at much be
low cost; also, every style of deelrable cat materials,
in quantities to suit purchasers. For every description
of Hats end Bonnets, for Ladies. Children and Misses,
their stock is by far the rictest in the city, and tbeir
prices can be best described as a great sacrifice, ine
marked rush of customers at their store is thus easily
accounted for.
When Macbeth murdered Dnncan, he said
to his Wife, “Bethought I heard a voice cry “Sleep no
more'’” but this was before tho discovery of the
Elastic Sponge. No honsehold voice since that event
has ever cried “Sleep no more." All Its merits can
scarcely he condensed in a brief notice. It is forty per
cent, cheaper than cnrled hair, moss, feathers, or any
other article, and forty-five per cent, lighter in weight
It ikspringy, clean, durable, subject neither to disinte
gration or decay, and the supply 1b inexhaustible. We
commend the Elastic Sponge to every housekeeper in
the land. ______
