The Eighth General Conference at
New York.
New lork, May 28.—This morning’s ses
sion of the Eighth General Council of the
Reformed Episcopal Church was opened
with the report of the general committee on
appropriations aud funds to be raised for
objects within the church. They reported
that $7,784 had been appropriated at last
night’s session of the committee, and only
$4,300 had been pledged. The amount was
then made up.
The long mooted and troublesome ques
tion of Catholicism was brought up, as it
has been for the last four years at every
session, without any definite result being at
tained. The main issue involved Is that of
eternal punishment, upon which the
Council cannot agree. The debate was in
progress up to the time of recess.
At the afternoon session of the Reformed
Episcopal Council, the catechism commit
tee retired for consultation, and unani
mously recommended the use of a larger
catechism for the church and a smaller one
for the children. Any other catechism
sent to Council will be sent to the commit
tee on doctrines and worship.
It was resolved to erect a monument in
the cemetery at Baltimore to the memory
*.f Bishop G. D. Cummings, the founder of
the church. A committee was appointed
to receive subscriptions.
Bishop Cheeney said that no change
affecting the doctrines of the church had
been made by the Council. The body ad
journed till Monday, when the election wlil
take place.

Stock movement* In London.
London, May 28.—The Economist of this
week says : “TUe rate of discount for bank
bills, sixty days to three months, Is 1% per
cent., and for trade bills, sixty- days to three
months, 2(3)2% per cent. The great rise
during May In the Stock Exchange shows
how extensive the desire to buy has been,
and how powerfully the present cheapness
of money has affected the market. Secu
ritesare accumulating here and In Paris,
and many are held with borrowed
money. There was a pause in the
advance on Friday, as difficulty was experi
enced In obtaining sufficient funds. This
appeared to rather shake the belief In the
continuance of cheap money. Asa
whole, the result of the week’s fluctuations
is less strongly upward than for some weeks
previous. In foreign 6tocks the leading
features have been a rise in Turkish, Peru
vian and Italian. In American railways,
Central Pacific of California has risen 5,
St. Louis and San Franeifco 4, and Union
Pacific 7%. Cairo and Vincennes declined
2, and Ohio and Mississippi 1. It Is under
stood that several leading bankers have re
cently applied to the government to allow
the Issue of 2% per cent, bonds, pay
able to bearer. The capital of the new in
vestments announced this week amounts
to the sum of £8,000,000. In the last six
months new securities were adver
tised. including foreign loans, exceeding
£15,000,000, involving a cash contribution
of something like three-fourths that
amount. We also bought of American In
vestments, not originally brought out here,
and have thus committed ourselves to a
lock-up of accumulated capital of
considerably over £150,000,000. Tbe
principal offerirgs this week
are £25.000.000; Argentine 6 per cent,
bonds at 91, £2,000.000; (lane Government 4

lle Wants War.— Mahone has just
said to Rc-dfield: “Sometimes I have
thought that a foreign war just after the
late war would have been a good thing
for the country. It would have brought
the North and South together as nothing
else could. Sometimes I think it would
be a good thing now. Suppose we should
take the part of those down trodden
Irishmen and declare war on England. I
would engage to put into the field at
short notice a corps of 30,000 of as good
soldiers as the world has ever seen.
Why, there would be hundreds of thou
sands of them, and we would clean the
British off the continent, and we would
unite the two sections.”
Fred Douglass has got a position

Tbe General Assembly at Buffalo.
Ecffalo, N. Y., May 28.—The ninth
day’s session of the Presbyterian General
Assembly opened to-day, with service con
ducted by Revs. J. and M. Charts, of South
Carolina, followed by Dr. Page, of Roches,
ter.
The committee on the next place of
meeting reported Springfield, 111., as the
place; that the sermon be preached In
First Church of that city, and the remain
ing sessions be held, if the Assembly so
vote, in the capltol building, according to
the invitation of the Governor and Legis
lature. The report was adopted.
Rev. Patterson, D. D., of Chicago, pre
sented a report of the standing committee
on systematic benevolence. During the
past year there has been an Increase of
three Synods and thirty six Presbyteries
organized and acting either on the Assem
bly s plan of benevolence, or some other
similar plan. This leaves only seven of our
thirty-eight Synods and fifty-two Presbyte
ries out of one hundred and seventy five
that are not known to co operate with our
plan. Two of the seven Sjuods and fifteen
of the fifty Presbyteries are on foreign
grounds. The boards of the church
are all reported to have received
increased contributions to their treas
uries, ranging from snout three thousand
to fifty thousand dollars each, except the
Freedman’s Committee, which has received
thirty-five hundred dollars less than within
the preceding year, but It suffered no de
crease In gifts of the church. The net in
crease of contributions is upward of eighty
live thousand dollars. Almost all re
gular causes of benevolence report balances
In their treasuries. The number of
collections from the churches has been In
creased by six hundred and nin“ty-four
within the year. Nearly twenty thousand
blanks remain to be filled by non-contribu
ting churches. The cause of home mis
sions received nothing from one thousand
seven huudred and twenty-eight churches,
and that of foreign missions was treated
likewise by two thousand three hundred
and forty churches. Further organization Is
needed in the Synods, Presbyteries and
churches.
The report closed with a number of recom
mendations, among which was the follow
ing: That the permanent committee be en
larged so as to distribute its labors more
wisely, and to suggest that Cleveland be its
centre, with ten persons as members of the
committee —Arthur MitcheD, C. S. Pome
roy, H. McCracker, J. W. Cochrane, A. T.
Pierson, Wm. T. Wylie, D. P. Eels, Archi
bald McClure, Wm. Bakewell, Thos.
Cane, Waldo Carter and H C. Noble.
The Assembly at the conclusion of the
morning session, adjourned until Monday
morning.
Tlie United Preabrteriun*.
Fittsbdrg, Pa., May 28—The General
Assembly of the United Presbyterian
Church re convened this mornlug. After
the opening exercises, which were conduct
ed by Moderator Corson, the Committee on
Revision of the book of selections, called
‘•Bible Songs,” reported their inability to
agree. Resolutions were then adopted,
after considerable discussion, endorsing the
undivided psalter now In use,, and remov
ing the restrictions which the last Assem
bly placed on the Board of Publication, by
authorizing them to publish “Bible
Songs” to meet the demand of the
church. The report of the Board
of Church Extension was next adopted,
and an appropriation of $30,000 made for
the ensuing year. Tbe question of a union
of the United Presbyterian Church with the
Associate Reformed Church of the South
then received attention, and it wss resolved
to empower a commission to consummate a
union between the tw r o bodies, with the
understanding that neither church change
its standard. The action of the commission
will be referred to the next General Assem
bly. The Committee on Bills and Overtures
recommended the submission of the ques
tion to the Presbytery, asking them If they
desired to be overtured for a chapter allow
ing the use of instrumental music in
churches. This was laid over for the regu
lar order on Monday morning, and the As
sembly adjourned. The session will last
until next Wednesday.
SENATOR CAMERON LAMENTING.
Tlie Republican Future Bublouslf
••Harmony” 1* Not at Once Restor*
ed.
Interv'ew in the Philadelphia Press.
“Men who get power often, very often,
forget that it was secured by the efforts
of many, and is not their personal pre
rogative,” said Mr. Cameron. “It is,
therefore, the duty of the executive not
only to administer the trust in his hands
for the good of the whole country, but
so as to strengthen the organization
whose creature aud servant he is. I have
never yet seen a man in the President’s
chair strong enough to neglect this prin
ciple and succeed.”
“Is there no chance for harmony?”
“The differences in the party are very
serious—really dangerous—and I cannot
see now how they are to be settled; yet
I hope they will be. The disposition to
fight rather than to amicably adjust the
difficulties is the worst feature of the
situation. I always acted upon the
theory that you must compromise with
or crush your enemy.”
“Where has been the trouble in the
present complications?”
“There has been a lack of cordiality
all around, and a disposition on the part
of the Executive to listen to bad advisers.
There was a solution of the difficulties
perfectly honorable to both parties. I
believe General Garfield’s best friends
felt that be made a mistake in nomina
ting Robertson. Other grave mistakes
have been made, and if not corrected
will destroy the party, for no organization
can live while divided into factions, each
having the other by the throat. Mr.
Conkling and the force he represents, I
might almost say commands, cannot be
crushed and the party live. Therefore
he should have been met in a spirit of
compromise, which the withdrawal of
all the New York nominations would
have emphasized.”
“Was there any necessity for this
trouble?”
“None in the world. When General
Garfield was elected the party was as
strong as it ever was, and with bright
prospects for the future. No element of
the Republican party rejoiced more
heartily in this condition of affairs than
that known as stalwarts, and none were
ready to do more for its future success
than they. I hardly think that the party
can succeed without them. The diffi
culty in the way is that the position of
the stalwarts is misunderstood and mis
represented. They believe the offices
should be distributed so as to strengthen
the Republican party and not destroy it.
‘‘ls there a possibility of Grant’s be
ing a candidate in 1884?”
“No, sir! The talk of his being a can
didate in 1884 and the stalwarts having
him in training is simply clap trap, which
has been used to draw the President into
antagonism to him aud his friends.”
“Will Conkling be re elected?”
“I take it there can be no doubt of it,
if he reaily cares to be.”
Heirs Wanted.
About twenty years ago John Duffield
went to South America, from the State
of Maine, it is thought. He formerly
had a brother in Michigan, but his pres
ent whereabouts is not known. The
John Duffield referred to made his home
in the northern part of the Argentine
republic, and one day during the usual
lull of business, which occurs at siesta
time—from 11 to 3 o’clock—his store
was entered by two men who murdered
him for the purpose of robbery, They
did not succeed in securing his money,
and he left a large estate to which his
lawful heirs are entitled. He had no
living relative in that part of the
world and his friends there are now
in correspondence with Capt. John
Anderson, of Bay City, Michigan, to
whom any communicat ons relative to
tbe matter may be addressed. If no
claimants appear and establish their right
to the property, it will go to the Re
public. Exchanges may aid in finding
ihe heirs to his estate by publishing the
above facts, and all letters regarding the
same should be addressed to Capt. John

GRANT AT FORT DONELSON.
Some Interesting Dlnpatehe* Id
earthed from the FQn of the War
Department.
General Adam Badeau has devoted
himself for the last twenty years to
writing a history of which General Grant
is the hero. To make out his claim, it
is asserted by General H. Y. Boynton,
Washington correspondent of tbe Cin
cinnati Gazette, and a cordial hater of
both Generals Sherman and Grant, that
“Badeau has liberally perverted
documents, and where a point
was to be gained ignored oth
ers.” General Boynton, who figured
creditably in the Western army as
a fighter, claims to have fastened on one
aggravated case which illustrates many.
After the capture of Fort Donelson, it is
claimed. General Grant gave himself up
to excesses to such an extent that his
commander (Halleck) was seriously
alarmed for the army. Badeau claims in
his so called history' that no evidence of
this could be found in Washington, but
General Boynton produces from the War
Department files the whole corres
pondence. Halleck telegraphed March 2,
1862, to McClellan:
“I have had no communication from
Gen. Grant for more than a week. He
left his command without my authority,
and went to Nashville. His army seems
to be as much demoralized by the vic
tory of Fort Donelson as was that of the
Potomac by the defeat of Bull Run. It
is hard to censure a successful General
immediately after a victory, but I think
he richly deserves it. I can get no re
turns, no reports, no information of any
kind from him. Satisfied with his vic
tory, he sits down and enjoys it without
any regard to the future. I am worn
out and tired by this neglect and ineffi
ciency. C. F. Smith is almost the only
officer equal to the emergency.”
A few days later Halleck, worn out
with Grant’s conduct, sent him this dis
patch :
‘‘General McClellan directs that you
report to me daily the number and posi
tion of the forces under your command.
Your neglect of repeated orders to report
the strength of your command has
created great dissatisfaction and seriously
interfered with military plans. Your
going to Nashville without authority,
and when your presence with your troops
was of the utmost importance, was a
matter of very serious complaint at
Washington, so much so that I was ad
vised to arrest you on your return.”
These dispatches Badeau seeks to
throw doubt upon, but Gen. McLellan.s
very words are on file:
“Washington, March 3, 1862, 6 p. n\
—Major General 11. W. Halleck. St.
Louis: Your dispatch of last evening
received. The future success of our
c tuse demands that proceedings such as
Gen. Grant's should at once be checked.
Generals must observe discipline as well
a9 private soldiers. Do not hesitate to
arrest him at once, if the good of tbe
service requires it, and place C. F.
Smith in command. You are at liberty
to regard this as a positive order, If it
will smooth your way. I appreciate
the difficulties you have to encounter and
will be glad to relieve you from trouble
as far as possible.
“George B. McLellan,
“Major General Commanding, U. 8. A ”
Approved; Edwin M. Stanton, Sec’y
of War. J
General Halleck’s reluctance to de
grade Grant is testified in the last dis
patch of the series:
“ Headquarters Department op
the Missouri. St Louis March 4 1862.
—To General George B. McClellan,
Washington, D. C.: A rumor has just
reached me that, since the taking of
Fort Donelson, General Grant has re
sumed his former bad habits. If so, it
will account for his neglect of my oft
repeated orders. I do not . deem it ad
visable to arrest him at present, but
have placed General Smith iu command
of the expedition up the Tennessee. I
think Smith will restore order and dis
c pline. I hear, unofficially, but from a
rebel source, that our forces took posses
sion of Columbus this morning, the
enemy falling back to Island No. 10 and
New Madrid. I am expecting official
telegrams hourly.
“H. W. Halleck,
“Major General.”
Miutcring of the Virginia Readjus
ters
Washington Star.
The Readjuster State Convention of
Virginia will meet on the 2d of next
month, and there is quite a gathering of
prominent men of that party in Wash
ington at present, and others are to ar
rive. Conferences of the leaders with
Senator Mahone are being held for the
purpose of shaping affairs for the con
vention. State Auditor Massey is a can
didate for the nomination of Governor;
Colonel Cameron is a competitor,’
and Mr. Groner, of Norfolk, is
trying for the same honor. All three of
these gentlemen have “claims,” it
is stated, and Mahone is anxious to
reconcile differences before the conven
tion meets. The plaus pf Senator Ma
hone were considerably upset by the
failure to elect new Senate officers, and
it is said there are quite a number of
disappointed Readjusters iu conse
quence. Again, the Republicans are
not uniting with the lieadjusters with
any sort of unanimity. Mr. Wilson,
Postmaster at Lynchburg, a stalwart
Republican, was in Washington lately,
and word has gone out that Sec
retary Blaine advised him to make
a straight Republican ticket. At least
the straight Republicans say Wilson has
so stated to them. All these matters
have to be considered by Mahone and
his lieutenants before the convention
meets and a plan of battle prepared.
Among tbe Readjusters now here and to
come in a day or two are mentioned
Congressmen-elect Paul and Fulkerson,
Groner, Auditor Massey and Brady,
United States Collector at Petersburg.
The point which the Readjuster leaders
have in view, principally, is to ascertain
precisely what position the administra
tion will occupy as to the proposed
fusion of Republicans and Readjusters.
•The President and Secretary Blaine have
both taken very positive grounds against
any sort of coalition which would, In the
least, impair the Republican organization
of Yircinia. They want that organi
zation kept intact; but the straight-out
Republicans assure them that any fusion
with the Readjustee will split the Re
publican party. Senator Mahone spent
some time with Col. Bob. Ingersoll this
morning, seeking his influence to in
duce the administration to take ground
in favor of coalition. It was reported
that the Colonel promised Mahone his
assistance. The Readjuster managers
are desirous ot having the positive sup
port of the administration promised, as
that would have considerable influence
in shaping the policy of their convention
next Thursday.
An Arkansas Atrocity.— A party of
armed and mounted men rode into
Mountain Home, one hundred miles
north of Little liock, Ark., last week,
broke into the store of J. H. Talbot,
blew open the safe and abstracted several
thousand dollars. They then plundered
and set fire to the building. The flames
communicated to a keg of powder in the
cellar, when the structure blew up with
a terrible noise, arousing the inhabitants,.
who saved the balance of the town from
destruction. The robbers escaped with
their plunder,
The Russian revolutionists in their re
ply to the Czar’s autocratic manifesto
say: “Let your Majesty assemble your
people around you and listen to their
wishes, and then neither you nor the
State will have any reason to fear. ” It
is truly sad to see so many millions of
people humbly entreating the man who
claims them all as his slaves to be
allowed some voice in the government.

is inexpensive and simple in its use.
While a most potent means for destroy
