Addbesses to the People. — The fourth of a series of Sunday evening addresses will take place at the Theatre Royal to-morrow evening, at quarter past eight. The Rev F. W. Isitt will be the speaker, and his subject will be " Christianity and National Life." The Young Men's Institute. — It is proposed to build a gymnasium in connection with the Young Men's Institute, providing that sufficient assistance is forthcoming. The object is, we gather, to do all that ib possible in the direction of offering to young men wholesome means of spending their hours of reoreation in the evenings. Already oiasaea have been established for drawing, shorthand, singing, &c, while provision has been nude for various amusements, including gamos of skill. To supply a further want, however, it is proposed to build a gymnasium adjacent to the All Saints' Schoolroom, the building to be 40ft long by 16ft wide, and having a height of 25ft to the ridge. In order to carry out tha proposal the sinews of war are needed, and sympathisers with the object are invited to subscribe towards the cost of the gymnasium, estimated at £100. Doubtless there are many who will be glad to help forward so deshable a movement, and the Rev F. W. Chatterton, President of the Institute, will be glad to receive their subscriptions.

Intemperate smoking, in my opinion, has more to do with nervousness and small scores than moderate drinking. E.
