Dr. Watson's Thanksgiving sermon, we were particuliarly impressed with that portion of the reverend gentleman's discourse which referred to the good seed sown by those engaged in the mission-work of this noble institution, and in common with many other christian people of this city we rejoice to see such a worthy exhibit of the workings of the institution in the past. Bat it is a great pity such a good work should languish in tbe remotest possible degree for a lack of means, when it is not only within an easy range of possibility to asHiftt materially in furthering this work bo well begun, but very probable, if all who manifest any interest at all in tbe institution wcfuld earnestly endeavDr to assist it to some extent, that it might be placed beyond the perad venture of a doubt upon a certain and sure basis. In this connection we may state that we have been kindly permitted to publish the following extract referring to this institu tion from Dr. Watson 8 sermon on Thanksgiving Day, which will, no doubt, prove interesting to many of our readers o o o a o o tt a o There is a special way in which our gratitude may have a voice to-day. The special object appointed lor your offerings upon Thanksgiving Day has, for U... I t Tom.a' Unrao" ULLlO JC4I JJBOb, UCCU urn utvu uvww . your own particular city mission . The work there is still going ou vigorously and successfully. The school (a free school for whites) has at present between sixty and seventy names upon its roll. It is admirably conducted, and is as quiet and orderly as any in the community. In . A t if" it we are enaeavoriog 10 ao someiniDg more than cultivate the head. We try to teach the heart also, to lay down in the depths of young natures, the great prin ciples of honesty and honor and of religion; to teach reverence for God and respect for man. It may easily happen, some day, that the quiet of this town and commu nity and their security from violence and rapine may depend upon the stamp upon character made by this very institu tion. Nor is our work confined to the school. Our Borne Sisterhood goes out among tbe poor, and sick, and ignorant, the sad and the suffering through whatever cause, in mind, in body, or estate, visiting our brethren at their own homes, bearing the inestimable offerings of sympathy, and tbe priceless lessons of the Gospel to many who would never come to church for them. Out of 38 baptisms, within a given time, 20 have been the result of this "Home" work. So far we have found onr labors most acceptable to those for whom it has been especially organized. But for all this wo need pecuniary resources. ; The regu lar subscriptions amount to betw wen $400 and $500 per annum, with which to maintain the household, and meet all the other expenses of tbe school and mission. We are, consequently, largely dependent upon what additional contributions yon may make for this object, and especially upon the two set offerings of Ash Wed nesday and Thacksgiving Day. But, besides this, we find our present living force by far too feeble for the work we could do, and eveu for the present demand upon it. We need more laborers; and that we may obtain and sustain them a larger pecuniary support.- You have been liberal to this cause. May God put it into your hearts to be still more so. To the above may be added that since the beginning of the active Home" work, 9 vears ago, from 600 to 600 children of this community have come under the moral and religious influences of the in stitution. As an evidence of the activity of these influences, it may be stated that nearly or quite 155 baptisms, and 34 confirmations, out of all within that period, in the Parish, may be attributed more or less to the agency of this mis sion.

City Court- Upon the mandate issued upon the Sher iff by the Mayor to produce tbe body of John Grady, this individual was brought into the City Court this morning, and ar raigned before Mayor Fishblate. Dr. J. C, Walker, Supsrintendent of Health, testified that the man John Taj lor, whom he had testified at tbe preliminary exam ination of John Grady, before the Mayor as lyicg In a critical condition, had since d ed, wheerupon Mayor Fishblate ordered the defendant, John Grady, to be commit ted to jail, without bail ,'o await his trial at the next term of the Criminal Ccmt npan the charge of murder. John Gurley and Dick Chambers, two little colored vagrants, who were foutd under the house of a gentleman residing on Seventh, between Market and Dock streeeta, last night at 9 o'clock, were or dered locked up in a dark cell for the pres ent and until further orders.

Quite a large audience gathered at the Opera House last night to witness the performance of the McKee Rankin troupe in Joaquin Miller's play of 'The Danites. Many went expecting to see a good play well rendered, and were not, in the main, disajipoitifciw The play 13 an attempt to portray mining life in the earlier days of California, and, although in some re spects disjointed and disconnected in plot, has many good dramatic points. Of these the actors last night made the most as. was s'lown by the marked attention they re- csived from the audience. Dangerous Habit. The property.of many persons in this city is endangered by a habit which seems to be wide spread among a certain class ot colored juveniles. We have reference to their Bleeping under residences, often striking matches and In some instances baildiDc fires by which to warm them selves. Last night John Gurley and Dick Chambers were captured under a residence on Seventh otreet, by the police. The notorious Tom Tit was also under the house at the time of the capture of his two pards, but owing to the situation of the building he made his escape. In their bed under the front steps were found burnt matches, cigar stumps and a piece of burnt lightwood. These little rascals have been detected under other residences, but have succeeded in making their es cape until last night. The Death sentence. The jury in the case of Allen Mathis, charged with the murder of iteuben Her ringi in Pender county, in September, 1878, whi:h was removed to this county for triil, was giveu to tbe jury last night atbalf-paat 6 o'clock, long after our pa per bad been put to press, lhe parties were all colored, and tbe principal wit ness for the prosecution was Lucy Her ring, the wife of Keuben Herring and the paramour, as haa baen assert d, of Alien Mathi?, The woman turned State's witness and on ber evidence it is probable that the verdict was rend-red. Thejary remain ed out only about an tour aod came into Court last night about 7; 30 o clocfc and pronounced a ve diet of guilty of murder ia the 6rst degree. Mathis, when called upon, dsclined to say anything and Judge Eure then sentenced him to be hung on Friday, January 9tb, between 11a m and 2 p. m. The prosecution was conducted by Capt. Swift Galloway, the Solicitor, ana the defence by Messrs. Bruce Williams and Jno. T. Bland, of Pender couDty, and Mr. Edward BJykin, of Simpson. These gentlemen worked hard for their client and the defence was conducted in an able and masterlf manner, but the evidence was two plain and direct and the result was foreshadowed as soon as the evidence was heard.
