is chiefiy needed on account of the children. Men .and women need the home on their own accounts. There is nothing Which gives a man more comfort, Store real happiness, or prepares him better for the duties of life, and to resist temptation, than a pleasant home. One may eat and drink and sleep well enough without a home. But man needs the responsibility of a home. He needs all the softening, restraining, and elevating Influence# of the true home. And woman needs it as well as man.

Of course children need the home, but not, as before said, for physical reasons chiefly. Home is the place where the a£feetion» shall be cultivated, where proper subordination to law and authority is leamoflj where respect for the lights of others is acquired. The hnsb&ud gets over his old bachelor selfishness, or gets better of it, very soon Alter taking a wife for whom be is to care and the first baby helps him along wonderfully. It may not be ®xaotly gallant to bint that the woman is hojped fast about as mncb, and in aboat t» same wsy. It does people good to katvesomebody else to think of and care fbe, and the home this must constantly be dope In one way or another. If it is not done the hope ia destroyed, and a mete boarding bouse pot lit Its place. Children, and men and women also,need the teaching and the practice of home M* and home relations.

We need to get out* of low views wbicb make borne men convenience, a business or a physical convenience. It needs to*© mo§ai* in ita position as ajB ^dueater of mind, heart and soul, and a means of cultivating the divinity in the men and women who are in tfaeaei^aad of tW children also, and a sonroe of the highest gMd to society in general^ lSe »a4 swawUwali of limine tflookf ii^ld a higher |rtaee in the eatimattoti.

CHURCH AND THEATERS. The theater question has made its appearance In the Terre Haete pulpit Last Snnday evening, the Rev. Mr. Henderson, of the Baptist Church, delivered a sermon remarkable for Ita research, fairness and candor, and, we might perhaps add, ita boldness, While showing dearly the dangers which surround the stage, and the evils which often attend It, and depicting these in no milk and Water language, be sKofced that dramatic wpresentatiow hove their origin in the natural workings of the human b^y who strides bis stick afld "plays horse,*" and in a thousand other mimic representations that it ia capable of being mndo an educator in mind and morals and that, even as it exists, it is not entirely evil. He showed plainly thft there waa good reason for the feelings of suspicion and opposition with which religious people have looked upon the theater, but, instead of denouncing the institution aa a whole, he would denounce and warn against the wrong in it, and teach people to discriminate between the good and the bad. In a word, be took exactly the ground which The Mail, a fe,w weeks since, in an editorial, declared the wisest and strongest for the olergy to occupy.

Mr. Henderson In hw sermon, made a good point on those who are always citing the example of aemebody who has done a thing which Is right, as an excuse for doing what is wrong. He said thai fceoaose ho attended a play which was proper that was no excuse for his hearers attending the Black Croek. It should be said, however, that Mr. Henderson clearly stated that ho had never attended the theater, and, while claiming the right to attend a proper play, he did not know that he ever should do so. This should be stated to relieve the gentleman from a suspicion of putting in a special plea for his own laxity of practice. We doubt if there was present a person who, after hearing the sermon, did not feel that theater-goii^ was a matter concerning which hisfjudgment and his conscience musit be exercised with the greatest care, We believe spek a iwrmon will do tenfold more to dissuade from general attendance upon theatrical performances of an evil character, than fifty sermons filled with a general and wholesale denunciation. It ia refreshing to find earnest and undoubted piety mixed with so much, good sound sense aa was evinced in this case.

The streets are thronged with merry pedestrians, making the necessary (tc parations for a merry Christmas. Many a childish face will grow brighter, when bo flnds, Christmas morning, that Santa dans has not forgotton him, and the wetl-filled stocking will be gazed upon with delight. Tlio stores, representing every business, are bright and attractive In their holiday attire, and it is pleasant despite the croaking about hard t{mes to see-that they are crowded with customers making purchases. People will go right along enjoying th» holidays, year after year, unheeflful of dismal forebodinga, and it is well that they do so, for the relaxation and enjoyment of the occasion does much to relieve toil worn humanity.

The last few months have been mark ed for the number and frequency of sud den deaths. Last Sunday the startling intelligence spread through the city that Mrs. James Koss was dying, and Mon day morning it was anqounccd that she waS dead. She was only taken ill the preceding Friday, and Saturday there was little apprehension of danger.

Mrs. Ross was a native of Albany, N. Y., but bad been a resident of this city for nearly thirty years. She was a woman of great simplicity and beauty of character, and was greatly beloved by a large circle of friends and acquaintan ces. She was well known among all the older residents of the city, as well as among those who cannot claim to be old residents, and was universally esteemed She was a member of the Congregational church. Her husband, who is so generally and favorably known, has the sympathy of all.
