of the people to catch a glimpse at the vessel, bat they
were doomed to disappointment, as she does not glide off,
At length the hammering commenced anew, and finally
the noble vessel moved off into the water, greeted by shouts
from the thousands gathered around. As she touched

Lecture by the tlEv. A. A. Willits
—The Spring Garden Institute, at the corner of Broad
fend Spring G&iden etrevts, was filled last evening with a
large and respectable audience to listen to a locturo by
Xhe Rev. A. A Willits, formerly of this city. The sub
ject selected by tbe speaker was announced as “The
Secret/' The novel title of tbe subject, and the popu
larity of the lecturer, guaranteed a large audience.
In opening tbe speaker referred, in his usual pleasing
manner, to the curiosity of mankind, and said that it was
mot strange (bat his audience should come to listen to the
secret he had to communicate. His secret was not of
that kind that made men's hair stand upon their heads
like that of Hamlet, whose secret was too terrible to dis
close, Nor was bis secret like tbe lover’s, ortho Govern
ment, or tho telegraph.
But there were matters that should be proclaimed for
the public good. He referred in an amusing style to the
delivering of liis secret, and said he would tell it, but not
just then. He compared himself to a certain lecturer
absorbed tbe attention of bis audience in what he
liad to say, aud then promised to toll tho rest on the ue*t
evening; bnfthrmgh the speaker would seek to gain at
tention, yet he would tell Iris secret before his audience
Yetired. He continued in this strain, and made some
palpable hits upon the habits of people of New York,
which plaee he i* now a resident,) which ere «ted con
siderable merriment. The lecture was botn amusing and
ififctpuctivs, and the secret solved seemed to be tho way
Xo procure aud rotain happiness.
A lecture was also delivered by William W. Maurice,
lust evening, at tlio Temperance Hall, corner of Twelfth
and Filbert streets. The hall was filled wito ladies aud
numerous representatives of the different temperance
societies. Thu « Pulpit and the Stage” was the subject

Amounting to $647. The judgment of the court was in

claimed that unnecessary coats had been mode to secure

wo presume, was more than mot by the contributions
towards it, and the sale of tickets. The tables, four in
number, extending the whole length of tbe hall, were set

limited to the comfortablo capacity of the tables, about
five hundred. The stage was decorated with American

CITY ITEMS.
Tea Meeting and Anniversary of the Bedford-
Street Mission.
At a few minutes after seven o’clock, Mr. B. H. Lou
dtiiblager, wbo acted as a sort of chief marshal on the
occasion, directed the managers to the ante-room, aud
invited the guests to take their seats at tie tables.
An openiDg prayer was then offered by the Rev. Gold
smith P. Garrow, after which a verso of a hymn was
sung, and tbe whole company proceeded to discuss tho
good things with a gusto. When about forty minutes
had been consumed in this way, another verso of a hymn
was sung.
Thu choir was then ftrmolly tolron by J. B. StGolmaii
Esq., an activo member and officer of the institution, and
the annual report was rend by Mr. W. H. Thaw.
NINTH ANNCAI. REPORT
From lbe report as read, we learn that tbe receipts for
the past year were lees by some thirteen hundred dob
lurs, than these of the previous year. Among the
special phases of evil detailed, the fearful inroads
of intemperance in the vicinity of their opera
tions, Bedford and Baker streets, were alludod to
It appears that within a circuit of two squares from the
Mission House, one hundred and thirty dram-shops are
in active operation, and these are estimated to have an
average of twenty customers each—many of whom are
besotted drunkards—making twenty-six hundred men,
women, and children, as tbe immediate victims. Great ef
fort has been made during the past year to arrest this tide
of rum, and, as a partial result, it was stated that sixty
two men and women had signed the pledge of total ab
stinence from intoxicating drinks. Since the organiza
tion of the Mission it has succeeded in rescuing two
hundred and twenty-five children from those blighting
associations, and providing for them good homes.
Tbe operations of the Ilonso of Industry, esta
blished in a tenement opposite the Mission House,
although not immediately connected with this institu
tion, is considered as au outgrowth from it, and was fa«
vorably noticed in the report. It is dow under the car®
and management of a number of philanthropic ladies,
prominent among whom is a much* esteejued member of
tbo Society of Friends. The day schools connected
with the institution were represented as in a flourißkiug
condition, numbering now about three hundred and fifty
children, under the control of efficient teachers.
There were abundant materials in the report for
speech-making texts, and as such were freely used by the
Breakers.
I’JLOXISCCOUS KXRKCISBS, SINGING, RESOLUTIONS,
SPEECHES, ETC.
After the reading of the report, a hymn way sung by
the excellent choir of the Green-street Methodist Epis
copal Church.
An earnest address was then delivered by tho Rev. C.
Cooke, in the course of which be offered tho following
resolution:
Resolved, That tbe Board of Managers of the Bedford
street Mission, and those who sympathize with them,
have abundant cause to congratulate themselves upon
the success of their labors among ihe outcast poor j and
tbat, as the fleeting shadows of another year fall upon the
field which they have planted and watered, they ac
knowledge, with profound gratitude, tbe blessing of God,
to whom alone is due the increase that has gladdened
their hearts.
The above resolution ffas secouded and spoken upon,
by (he Rev. J. W. Jackson, of this city, and was subse
quently adopted unanimously.
After the choir had again sung, ah address was made
by tbe Rev. J. Hyatt Smith, pastor of the Eleventh
Baptist Church, in which a second resolution was offered
as follows;
Resolved) That in view of these encouraging results—
notwithstanding the perplexities with which the pa*t has
freer* fi aught—we will proie.ute with renewed vigor the
vuik in which we have engaged, and that neither the
means for its support, nor the active labor necessary,
shall .be wanting iu those who love the name and cause
of Obriet.
Mr. Smith’s speech was intended also to pave the way
for the subscriptions, which were next in order, and we
must say that, as a verbal means to a financial end, it
was admirably done.
AXXPAL ELECTION 07 OEEIOERS.
After the subscriptions had been mode, by means of
cards distributed for that purpose, the following-named
gentlemen were proposed and elected to serve as a Beard

ADDRESS OF THE PORT ROYAL
\yS RELIEF COMMIT TEE—The PormanentCom
mittee, appointed by tbe public meeting held at National
Hall, in this city, on tbe 3d lust., to oonsider the condi
tion of the freed blacks within the lines of the Union
forces in South Carolina, and elsewhere, have entered
upon their duties, and now desire to say a few words to
the public on the subject entrusted to them.
The necessities of tnese people, and their claims upon
our sympathy, are set forth by Gen. Sherman, the officer
in command at Port Royal, Iu tbe following language:
(| The helpless condition of the blacks inhabiting the
vast area iu the occupation of ihe forces in this command,
calls for immediate action on the part of a highly favored
and philanthropic people. Tbe benevolent of the land
are most earnestly appealed to for assistance in relieving
their immediate wants. There never was a nobler or
more fitting opportunity for the exercise of that practical
for wbUh tho Northern people him erer
been aißtinennhea.” ;•
Edward L. Pierce, the Government agent, resident at
Port Royal, in his report to the Secretary of the Trea
sury,dated February 3d, remarks as follows: “ There
are some material waufs of this territory, requiring Im
mediate attention. * * * # On Port Royal Island,
and that part oi Ladles’near U it, destitution has com
menct'd; and will, unless provision bo made, become
very great.. * # * * On scarcely any (plantation)
within this district is there enough (corn) to last beyond
April whereaß it is needed till August. On others it
will last only two or three weeks, and on some it is en
tirely exhausted.”
It ought Also to be stated that many of the blacks are
destitute of decent clothing; that having been always de
pendent upon their white masters for direction and or
ganization in their labor, they require some tutelage to
train them jto habits of mlf-support, as well as to elevate
iheir moral and social condition to a degree commensu
rate with thoir newly- acquired liberties.
It may be further added that there exists an imme
diate and pressing necessity for the protection of these
unsophisticated people from the evils of contact with de
praved whites. Painful facta have come to our knowledge
showing that tbe demand for safeguards against dangers
from ibis source Is absolutely imperative.
To accomplish these various ends we propose—
First. To supply the destitute among the blacks with
clothing to the extent required by necessity and decency.
Second. To send food sufficient to prevent suffering,
until the Government can restoie the supplies ot grain
and cattle taken off the plantations by the army on its
first arrival, or otherwise provide for their sustenance
until crops can be raised.
'Jhird. To furnish them with seed and implements, and
organize their labor with a view to growing crops for their
future support.
Fourth. To teach them tire household duties and rudi
mentary arts of civilized life, and finally to instruct theta
in the elements of an English education and the simple
truths of the Bible, divested, as much as possible* of nil
sectarian bias.
These are purposes which need no argument to com
mrnd them. To the unrequited toil of these poor men
and women we are indebted* for many of our personal
comforts and luxuries. Not to avail ourselves of this
opportunity of discharging, in some measure, the obli
gation would argue great insensibility, if not dereliction
to obvious duty.
Neve Ycrk and Boston (with which cities we are in
harmonious co-operation) have acted with creditable
promptness in this metier, and it behooves us to'seo that
Philadelphia shall not suffer by comparison. Our citi
zens hare ever keen noted for their lively interest in all
wolNconsideriil efforts for the benefit of humanity* and
this fact leara us to anticipate with confidence a generous
response te the present appeal.
All contributions in money for the above object may
be sent lo E. W. CLARK, Esq., Treasurer, No. 35 South
THIRD Strert, <-r to either of .the unoersigned, members
of the Committee. Contributions of Clothing and other
articles may be sent to Messrs. COPE BROS., WAL
