As was to be expected, there was a Targe
attendance at the Opera Urase last night
to iiste to tb lecture ot ;Mr. Wo. H.
Barnes on the subject of Entertaining an
Audience. The speaker was introduced
by our fellow-citizen, Co! Wm. L. Smith,
in a few remarks. Mr.4 Barnes treated his
audience with a sketch of the origin-, rise
and progress of American Odd Fellowship
in chaste and beautiful language, which oc
cupied abeut fifteen minutes, at the conclu.
aioa of which he recited with great pathos
"Binttt on the .Rhine,", by Mrs. ..Norton,
which drew: forthrarioui evidences of ap
preciation. The balance of the programme
consisted of delineations of character, anec
dotes, comic ballads, &c., during the rendi
tion of which he was frequently interrupted
by bursts of loud and vociferous applause.
Mr. Barnes certainly has a fine concep
tion of the manner . of " Entertaining an
Audience,", a fact which had its practical
illustratien In his effort of last night ' The
speaker concluded ithi entertainment by
mimlcfng fowls, animals, ' &&, which was
very amusing. The lecture abounded In
wit, humor and pathos, and waa also in
structive and entertaining in the highest
degree,' to his . large . and appreciative
auditory, - '. ; .

r A Worthy old- colored man of this city in
formed us of a rather singular circumstance
yesterday. ' He says that twenty years ago
a colored woman came to him in distress
and asked the loan of $12. .The woman
was in needy circumstances and ' out of
sympathy for her condition he let her have
the amount Time passed on, but seemed
to bring no Improvement in the worldly
prospects of the woman, hence her creditor
con tinned from month to month and from
year to year to put off the unpleasant duty
of asking her for the money. Recently,
however, he has become aware of a change
m her prospects for the better, and so some
time in April he sent her a note, reminding
her of the circumstances of the transaction
and requesting the payment of the money,
without Interest, which was sent to him
yesterday morning, with, expressions of
gratitude for the favor she had received at
ais hands.

upon him, finally drawing a pistol and dis

TO ALL XmOttL IT MIT CONCERN.
The undersigned members of the Board of
Stewards of Front Street Methodist Episco
pal Church South, deem it due to ourselves
and the public generally to publish the fol
lowing letter, and an extract from another
letter, having obtained the consent of the
gentlemen who have received them. The
extract is from a letter just received by the
Rev. Dr. Moran from the Rev. Geo. E.
Reed, Pastor St. Pauls' M. E. Church, Fall
River Mass., the letter from which it is
taken, being a reply to inquiries made in
reference to the Rev. C. W. Warren lately
from Fall River and now living in this city.
The letter is from Rev. Dr. Young, ; Uni
tarian minister, Fall River, to a responsible
gentleman of this city, hot a member of our
church, and will explain itself. ' It is due
to the public and especially to the Rev.
Mr. Reed, that we should do this, since, in
order to prop up his own bad character,
Warren has referred so many persons in
this city to that gentleman whose name has
been so freely, but so falsely used in vindi
cation of his (Warren's) character. , .It is
also due to ourselves and our Pastor since
we have been so wrongfully accused of per
secuting him (Warren) as an innocent man,
because . as friends of - religion - and
purity, we have felt it to be our imperative
duty to expose him. Let it be distinctly
understood that we do not now propose to
make a full and formal statement of the
numerous charges and specifications which
we have evidence to prove against him;
and which would have been established by
this time, if Warren had submitted to a
trial before our church tribunal. Our ob
ject at present is simply to show by the
aforesaid letters (one. of which is from a
gentleman whom Warren himself has re
peatedly declared to be his "best friend")
that he is at least a tad a jan as w have rep
represented him to be; and that as such we
are, and have been, perfectly justified in
taking the position which, on conscientious
grounds, as members of. the Church of
Christ, we have been compelled te assume
in this whole matter. The following are
true copies of the letter and extract ref er
redto: . . - . : : h --:'

LETTER TBQM REV. DR. TODHQ.
My Dear Sir: About ten days since I re
ceived a letter from Miss Bradley, Principal
of T. N. School in your city, inquiring into
the Character of the "Rev.,r C. W. Warren.
I then gave my belief that he was the ob
ject of unjust and malicious aspersions. ; I
now believe him to be an imposter and ac
complished rough every way base and
rotten and I wish to undeceive Miss
Bradley and warn, her to have no manner
of confidence in the miserable fellow. A
mysterious telegram which came to' me
Saturday last, signed C. W. Warren, makes
me fear that he has her confidence still, and
that a letter from Fall River to her, sent in
the usual way, may fail to reach her. I there
fore send this enclosed to you with the re
quest that as a friend of purity, and virtue
you will take the i trouble to see that it is
without any chance of mistake put into Miss
Bradley's hand, that she may not be caught
in any of the villain's snares. He is playing
0 terjf devil excuse the seeming profanity,
but the expression is most appropriate to
his case. When he left here, not being of
his communion, I did not then know of the
stories that were already circulating.
; Yours respectfully,

Minister of the Unitarian Church in Fall

t " Dkab BftO: " Your letter has' been
received. : I am greatly obliged to you for
your long and circumstantial account. It
served to clear up several points in regard
to which, I have been in the dark. I saw
Miss Tripp's aunt last night; she'caHed upon
me to inquire in regard to Warren; she
stated that she was present when Mr. Warren
asked the girl's father for . his daughter
as early as last June, and and that Miss
Tripp expects to marry him now, (see note
A.) has her trousseau all ready. She has
received letters from Warren constantly
and he has fooled her so completely that
she has retained confidence in him." He
has within two-or three weeks written her
so Miss Deane says that hla banker in New
York had failed, and therefore the marriage
must be postponed. . Warren has told me
repeatedly that he was under no obligations
tolliss T. and that he had no intention Of
marrying her, yet she expects him to u
- ; Now sir, I have this to say I have stood
by Warren in this city when it has cost me
something to do so, , because I have been
loth to believe him guilty, and I could find
no definite proof for the charges against
him. He seemed to stand alone,, and his
case excited my sympathy. I know that,
as his ' best friend." my name has helped
to prop his falling fortunes. But that must
end. I told him that I should standby him
until I was convinced of his guilt . Infor
mation has come in from so many quarters of
late evidence so full and trust-worthy
that I am forced to the conclusion that he
is as Unmitigated f$coundrfl at can be found.
You are at liberty to use this statement as
you may see fit. . In regard to his trip to
Europe, his falsehoods have been of the
most outtageout character, (see note B.) I
have now no reason to disbelieve- other
charges brought against, hinuwhile here'
charges of immoral conduct charges of
falsehood. I wish it distinctly understood
that I have lout every thzed of confidence in
him that J am convinced of , hie . villainy.
When I received Mr.' Walker's telegram
andnietter I wrote . to ; Warren that
I believed him to be a complete fraud-' and a
bate deceiver. r If; he .pretends; to have re
ceived any communication from me within
two weeks of a different tenor, he utterly
falsifies. : Miss Deane told me last night
that Miss Tripp said she was pursuaded by
.Warren to make her statement to me deny
ing any expectations from him.- ? I shall be
glad to hear of his whereabouts and of his
past history if you have, ascertained , it : I
need not say a word as to his infamous
slander on our Northern Women. Let me
