The omin ous 'gatherings in the Park, premonitory symptoms of the great flour riot some years ago, are noted-. The Sun speaks of jbem 4 as a dangerous excitement,' but calls the -attention of labor to what charity and iw manity are,, doing ort all sides. The Tri bune saggests that on - New "Year's day ladies give up their costly tables, spread for the reception of visitors, -and devote the sum they wonld cost to .the poor. Another meeting of r the unemployed, working men was held on Friday after-, noon, in the Park. Several thousand were present. A committee " was appointed to solicit snbscriptions, and it va resolved nhat an oflSce be opened in each ward." A number of short speeches were made,' ap pealing to the sympathies' of the comma nity, denouncit-g speculators and exporters, demanding the right to labor, and advoetu ting lapd reTorui. ' , - One of the speakers , at the meeting ad vocated the prevention of the export of corn. Another advocated a 'mass rising to treat the officers of buncemb and insolvent banks to a coat ot tar and feathers." Many -of vhe leading working men, however, dis avow" these sentiments, and allege that they were uttered hymen who care more fur ihpir otq than, the interest of .the mechanics.- - - . . ' - , . -! Mr. Elias-Fountain iias published a no " uce to the. mechanics out of work in- the ' city, assuring theni 8L",000 for charity by New Year's day.- Mr. .Fountain intends to collect f2,000 himself. - .

Thousands of children, also y oung, inter esting and lovely, are ready to be separated , " from each other and their parents, to4 live, but too gladly, wherever they can find - shelter. - - ' . --.--.- V:-.:. a. . Four modest, and -respectable looking girls, eleven, sixteen, nineteen and twenty-' , one years of age, came here to-day . togeiri - er. An assistant, as usual, while 1 was ; otherwise engaged, took down their names, "history and circumstances, which were t given in a simple, uncomplaining, and 'evi dently trutbfal manner, disclosing nothing .of more peculiar note than the general story fO thtee words unemployed- homeless ' destitute- A look of Suppressed suferrng, " however, attracted my notice and I .called , one of them near me a sweet looking aneek eyed girl and .said to herhowold . ue joumy,. cfiirtU' Sixteen sir.

If it is it will be of short -duration compared t what the disease wonld be. A cure will be certain. Exchange.
