The Christmas Eve Services at the Seamen's Bethel were conducted by Rev F. W. E. Peschau. of St. Paul's Luth eran Church, in the language of tfeeScau dinavians. This was appropriate as pearly all of those present were of that Northern race and they could not have understood the import of a sermon de livered in the - English tongue. Rev. Mr.. Peschau is an accomplished lin guist and speaks the Scandinavian tongue in its native purity ; a fact which, combined with a fine enunciation and pleasing oratery, made his sermon im pressive and deeply interesting to those hardy sons of Norway who fgo down to tbe sea in ships and do business upon the great waters." There was a large congregation present, mainly composed of foreign seafaring men.and liberal contributions were made tow ards purchasing an organ for the Bethel. 1 -. - t .T Quite Appropriate. Col.

Is in the city on a visit to his brother, Mr. John H. Sharp. He was on the street yesterday when Capt. E. W. Manning came up, and in a few moments there was a mutual recogni tion and a cordial, hearty hand shaking as they recognized in each other the shipmates of 1&53-4-5, when they were on board the same vessel of the U.
