THURSDAY, JULY 10,18S0.
—The Egyptian government is daily
paying its judgment creditors in full, with
twelve per cent, interest, and all credi
tors under $1,250 without judgments wili
be paid in full in a few weeks.
—The Philadelphia Press calls for the
withdrawal of Simon B. Conover, the
Republican nominee for governor of
Florida. It says his nomination has cast
a blight on the Republican campaign in
that State.
—Albany announces the marriage en
gagement of State Engineer and Surveyor
Horatio Seymour, Jr., to Miss Addie
Johnson, daughter of the late Alex. S.
Johnson, who was the predecessor in the
United States Circuit Judgeship of Judge
Blatdiford.
—In the opinion of the Evening Bulle
tin, “the rebel horde that Meade drove
back from Gettysburg threatened Penn
sylvania with no woisc disaster than the
free trade horde of Europe threatens her
with now.” This is rather rough on Mr.
Garfield and the Cobden Club.
—Republican papers, which are work
ing themselves up for fear the Democratic
party will seize the presidency this time,
may as well remember that the only
party which ever gave up the presidency
when all its own members and many of
the opposition thought its candidate elect
ed was the Democratic party, which is
now charged by its opponents with in
tending to seize the government, whatever
the result may be.
Senator Bayakd ox the Stump.—
A special to the Cincinnati Commercial
says that shortly before Congress ad
journed, Senator Bayard left Washington
to go to the bedside of his dying father,
ne did not return until yesterday. To
day he devoted to the disposition of the
public and private business which had ac
cumulated in his abscuce, and to-night he
left for his home. Before leaving lie
closed up his Washington house for the
season. lie expressed, to-day, the utmost
confidence in the success of Hancock and
English, and announced his determina
tion to take the stump in New York,
Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania in their
behalf. He is in perfect health and spirits.
Ax INVOLUNTARY STARVATION TEST.
Two fishermen who had been sent from
their vessel in a dory as she lay on the
Newfoundland banks, got bewildered in
a fog and finally stmek for shore as the
best chance to escape death. They had
neither bread nor water in their little
boat, and were five days and five nights in
making land, and beached their little
dory at Cape Race, in a condition of al
most utter exhaustion. They recovered
very speedily after getting food and wa
ter. But they had previously become
voiceless and subject to an almost irre
sistible torpor. That is a much more sat
isfactory trial than Dr. Tanner’s self-
imposed starvation, which is so generally
suspected of more or less imposture.
—If the observations of the New York
Sun may be accepted, the situation in the
Empire State is assuming the form of a
trade. That is, the Republicans, assum
ing the majority to be Grant men, would
rather secure the election of a United
States u»«tnr t,nr aiv years than the elec
tion of Garfield. The Grant men are said
to show a decided lukewarmness for
General Garfield, and will make no efibrt
to carry the State for him. Senator Ker-
nan’s successor will be elected by the next
legislature, and to secure the control of
this will be the aim of the C'onkling men
in the coming campaign. Already, Conk-
ling and his followers, it is said, are be
ginning to give Governor Cornell, ex-
Miuisters Pierrepont and Stoughton and 1
others some emphatic advice in regard to
keeping out of the contest, and it is likely
that Conkling will name his future col
league, if it is possible for him to exercise
his domineering spirit.
A Daily Newspaper ox Shipboard.
There is now a daily newspaper printed
on shipboard. It is called the Atlantic
Daily, and J. H. Hartley, of Boston, be
gan to publish it on the steamship Devo-
nia, of the Anchor line, on May 29, ofT
Sandy Hook. He had a case of type and a
job press on board, and each day during
the voyage he “set up” and printed his
edition of 300 copies, regardless of fogs,
storms and icebergs, ne says that he set
up about ten thousand ems a day. Three
steerage boys were employed, but struck
when the passengers called them “devils.”
Burlesque telegrams from the Chicago
convention were printed, and passengers
expecting to be seasick were requested to
“notify” the steward. Various jokes per
petrated by the passengers • were printed,
together with the news—social, politi
cal, religious and nautical—of the voyage.
—In his speech at the meeting in the
court house yard, in Staunton, Virginia,
last .Thursday evening, Major Holmes
Conrad, of Winchester, in illustration of
the magnanimous character of General
Hancock, mentioned the fact that General
Hancock was in command at Winchester
when the surrender at Appomatox occur
red, and that, without his knowledge, the
provost marshal issued circulars ordering,
under penalty, the citizens cf Winchester
to illuminate their houses in honor of the
surrender, and that when this fact was
made known to General Hancock, he said
that lie respected the feelings of the de
feated, and did not wish to wound or hu
miliate them, and at once had the order
of the provost marshal countermanded.
Like all truly brave men, General Han
cock is as magnanimous as brave, and
respects the feelings of a brave and fallen
foe. In war, an enemy; in peace, a friend.
The Way “Ixtimidatiox” is Prac
ticed ix Philadelphia.—The Times
says that some of the young women em
ployed in the caustic-soda department of
the Pennsylvania Salt Works, at South
wark, declared their sympathies for the
Democratic candidate last week by chalk
ing on a large tank standing near the
building these words: “Our choice for
President. General Winfield S. Han
cock. Hancock forever.” The circum
stance was reported to the superintendent
of the works, who immediately ordered
that the girls who had thus expressed
their political preference should erase the
name at once. None of the dozen female
employes, however, would give the name
of the oilenders, and the superintendent
finally decreed that they must either wash
off the words or walk off themselves.
Upon this announcement one and all de
clared they would leare rather than obey
such a command, whereupon, they were
ordered to go. This they did, and as they
marched awhy handkerchiefs were waved
and three rousing cheers were sent up for
Hancock.
Garfield’s letter of Acceptance.
Mextox, Ohio, July 12.—Gen. Gar
field has forwarded to Senator Hoar, of
Massachusetts, the following letter of ac
ceptance of the nomination tendered him
by the Republican nominating conven
tion:
July 10th, 18€0.
Dear Sir—'“On the evening of theStli
of June last I had the honor to receive
from you, in the presence of a committee
of which you were chairman, the olbcial
announcement that the Republican nation
al convention had that day nominated ine
for their candidate for President of the
United States. I accept the nomination
with gratitude for the confidence it im
plies and with a deep sense of the respon
sibility it imposes. I cordially indorse
the principles set forth in the platform
adopted by the convention. On
nearly all 'subjects of which it treats,
my opinions are on record among the
published records of Congress. I venture
to make special mention, however, of
the principal topics which are likely to be
come subjects of discussion which have
been settled during the last twenty years;
and with no purpose or wish to revive the
passions of the late war it should be said
that, while Republicans fully recognize
and will s'renuously defend all rights re
tained by the people and all rights re
served to the States, they reject the poi
sonous doctrine of State supremacy, which
so long crippled the functions ol the na
tional government, and at one time
brought the Union very near to . destruc
tion.
They insist that the United States’
constitution, and the laws made in pur
suance thereof, are the supreme laws of
the land; that the right of the nation to
detennine the method by which its own
legislature shall be created cannot be sur
rendered without obrogating one of the
fundamental powers of the government;
that the national laws relating to the elec
tion of representatives in Congress shall
neither be violated nor evaded; tliatevery
elector shall be permitted, freely and
without iutimidatiou, to cast his lawful
vote at each election, and that the potency
of his vote shall not be destroyed by the
fraudulent vote of any other person. The
best thoughts and energies of our
people should be directed to
these great questions of national
well-being, in which all have a common
interest. 'Such efforts will soon restore
perfect peace to those who were lately in
arms against each other, for justice and
goodwill will outlast passion. But it is
certain the wounds cannot be completely
healed, and the spirit of brotherhood can
not fully pervade the whole country until
every citizen, rich and poor, white and
black, is secure in the free and full en
joyment of every civil and political right
guaranteed by the constitution and laws.
Whenever enjoyment of these is not se
cure, discontents will prevail, immigra
tion will cease, and industrial pursuits
will continue to be weakened by mi
gration.
The national government should exer
cise all its constitutional authority to put
an end to these evils, for all people and all
States are members of one body, and no
member can suffer without injury to all.
The most serious evils which aiilict the
South arise trom the fact that there is not
such a division of political opinion that
the party in opposition can exercise an
effective and wholesome restraint upon
the party in power. Without such re
straint the party rule becomes tyrannical
and corrupt. Prosperity, which is made
possible in the South by its great advan
tages of soil and climate, will never be
realized until every voter can freely and
safely support auy party he pleases. Next
in importance to freedom and justice is
popular education.
Its interests are entrusted to the States
and the voluntary action of the people,
and whatever help the nation can justly
afford should be generously given to aid
the States in supporting the common
schools, but it would be unjust to our
people, and dangerous to our institutions
to apply any portionof the revenues ofthe
nation or of the States to the support of
sectional schools. The separation of
church and State in everything relating to
taxation should be absolute. On the sub-
JCCL or Iiathmal ttmmmmrnm iny vieWS llUVC
been freely aud frequently expressed.
Little is needed in additional statement.
The public debt is now so well se
cured, and the rate of annual interest
has been so reduced by refunding, that
rigid economy in expenditures and the
faithful application of our surplus reve
nues to the payment of the principal of
the debt, will gradually but certainly free
the people from its burdens and close
with honor the financial cliapierof our war.
At the same time the government can
provide for all its ordinary expenditures
and discharge its debt. Resumption of
specie payments, which the Republican
party so courageously and successfully
accomplished, has removed from the field
of controversy many questions that long
and seriously disturbed the credit of the
government.
Our paper currency is now as national
as our Hag, and resumption has not only
made it everywhere equal* to coin, but
has brought into use our store of gold and
silver. Circulating medium is more
abundant than ever before, and we need
only to maintain equality of all our dol
lars to insure to labor and capital a meas
ure of value from the use of which no
one can suffer loss. The great prosperity
which the country is now enjoying should
not be endangered by any violent changes
or doubtful financial experiments in ref
erence to our customs and laws. A poli
cy should be pursued which will
bring thousands to the treasury,
and will enable labor and capital
employed in our great industries to com
pete fairly in our own markets with the
labor and capital of foreign producers.
We legislate for the people of the United
States, not for the whole world, and it is
our glory that American laborers are
more intelligent and better paid than
his foreign competitors. Our country
cannot be independent unless its people,
with their abundant natural resources,
possess the requisite skill at any time to
clothe, arm and equip themselves for war,
and in time of peace to produce _ all ne
cessary labor. It was the manifest in
tention ofthe founders of the govern
ment to provide for the common defense,
not by standing at arm’s length, but by
raising the people to higher aspirations.
The Mississippi river, with its great trib
utaries, is of such vital importance to so
many millions of people that the satiety
of their hopes on that score should be
realized. The interests of agriculture,
the basis of all our matorial prosperity,
and in which seven-twelfths of our popu
lation are engaged, as well as the interest
of manufacturers and its commercial im
portance, dictate this course.
The material interests of this country,
the traditions of old and the sentiment of
the people address words to us we should
follow. We cannot consent to allow any
form of servile labor to be introduced
among us.
The military and naval service are so
regulated by custom as to leave little
ground of complaint.
Without depriving any officer of his
rights as a citizen, the government should
require him to discharge all of his official
duties with intelligence, efficiency and
faithfulness. To select wisely from our
vast population those who are best fitted
for the many offices to be filled, requires
an acquaintance far beyond the capacity
of any one man. The executive should
theretoih seek and receive information
and the assistance of those whose knowl
edge of the communities in whicli the
duties arc to be performed best qualifies
them to aid in making a wise choice.
The doctrines announced by the Chi
cago convention are not temporary de
vices of a party to attract votes to carry
the election. They are deliberate con
victions resulting from a careful study of
the spirit of our institutions, the events of
our history aud the best impulses of our
peopled In my judgment these princi
ples should control the legislation and
administration of the government. In
any event, they will guide my conduct
until experience points out a different
way.
With great respect, I am truly yours,
J. A. Garfield.
To Hon. Geo. F. Hoar, Chairman of
Committee.

thing we have seen recently. The whole } executive committee was increased from
town is a unit on the school question, and 13 to 17. The following were then ap-
we predict a bright future for Gordon Insti
tute, which is yet in its infancy, but is
defined to lank among the first schools of
the State.
Its faculty, composed of teachers of
well-known reputation, is second to none
in thorough tiaiuing and tireless energy.
Rev. C. E. Lambdin is an admirable evi
dence that “the mind which has an ea
gle’s eye, will have an eagle’s wing,” for
he is soaring upward with a zeal that nev
er wavers, aud making himself a name
more enduring than gold.
Profs. W. H. Woodall aud W. W.
Lambdin, with two efficient ladies, Mrs,
L. K. Rogers (a graduate of old Wesley
an) and Miss Candler, include all the
brandies taught in the best colleges, while
Prof. Charles Guttenberger is master of
the musical department.
Monday, the first commencement day,
was appropriated to the Sophomores.
Some of the selections were very fine, and
from many a mother’s eye there fell a
glistening tear, when Miss Lorena _ Hin
ton so beautifully read “T.itile Willie’s
Letter to Papa.”
The instrumental music on three pianos,
with organ, flute, violin and cornet, was
one ofthe enjoyable features, and among
the performers we noticed some very tiny
girls and boys, who kept time with re
markable precision.
On Monday nigbt we attended the en
tertainment given by the smaller mem
bers of the school, the Earnest Workers,
Neanian and Juvenile societies, which we
pronounce a brilliant success.
After a difficult instrumental piece of
music by several performers, the curtain
was elevated on the first scene of t he
beautiful fairy drama, “Sleeping Beauty,”
a magnificent palace, with gilded throne,
and dining table laden with gold' and sil
ver service for the invited fairies. The
stage has recently been fitted up with
several sets of beautiful scenery, _ and the
drop curtain, painted by the artist Rey
nolds, presents one of the handsomest pic
tures we have ever seen, and the general
effect of the stage would do credit to the
best opera houses at the South.
The king, queen, courtiers and maids of
honor soon entered in glittering costumes,
prepared to receive the guests in royal
style. This play was quite a success and
evinced thorough training on the part of
their teacher, Mrs. Rogers, whose skill
and patience in the instruction of the lit
tle ones is proverbial.
The “Donation Party” was an amusing
burlesque under the direction of Prof.
Woodall.
“Voices of the Mystic Tree” were origi
nal poems by Mrs. Rogers, representing
the spirit of the evening star, the moo o',
and the spirit of the morning star, des
canting their own merits. The two first
knelt to the moon, gave precedence to her
charms, when she bade them arise, and
all three chanted in unison the praises of
Him who created for Ilis own glory the
sun, moon and stars, thus forming a beau
tiful tableau. On the coronet of the first
gleamed the word “Gloria,” on the sec
ond “in,” and on the third, “excelsii
Tiie Kindergarten song was composed
by President .Lambdin, and arranged for
the stage by Mrs. Rogers, being sung
by twenty very small girls dressed alike,
who marched in and arranged themselves
in five rows on the stage, as in calisthenic
performances, and marching through
many evolutions, kept perfect time with
their gestures to the music.
The interview between “Queen Eliza
beth and Mary, Queen of Scots” (from
Schiller) was acted in royal costume, and
this was followed by “Scenes from the
Life of Mary,” by Master Willie Rogers.
His rendition of this difficult poem showed
elocutionary talent of a higli order, as
he strode across the stage with sword and
rapier drawn, picturing the deatii of
Rizzio, Damley, and the” subsequent exe
cution of Mary.
The crowning features of the evening,
however, were the tableaux vicani, by Miss
Rogers, which awakened all the patriotism
in one’s soul. When the curtain arose on
the first scene of these, entitled the “First
American fi«si” » nuwt beautiful picture
greeted the eyes, in which thirteen young
;irls, dressed alternately ia red, white and
due, represented the thirteen original
States, while the Goddess of Liberty was
elevated in the centre and above them all.
On one side was Washington and his sol
diers, in buff trimming and cross belts; on
the other was Cornwallis aud the British
red coats. As soon as Washington received
the sword of Cornwallis the States all
burst forth simultaneously in a triumphant
song, “Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean,”
waving their flags at the close of each
verse. The second scene was the “First
Confederate Flag,” which opened with
“Dixie,” and called forth loud applause.
The eleven Southern States appeared
and waved the Confederate flag, when a
little boy stepped forward and recited the
Conquered Banner, and sadly furled that
relic of past glories. Six little girls then
came from each side and recited in con
cert “The Blue and Gray,” these being
represented by boys in uniform, the blue
and gray clasped handstand the last scene
was a joyful Patriotic Glee, in which all
the States marched in and formed our na
tional colors, a solid phalanx of red, one
of white and one of blue. These all had
shields painted by an artist in the colors
of each, with the name and coat of amn
of the State represented. As they sang
“Never may red-handed war again our
happy homes invade, our beauteous ban
ner stain,” winding in and out in an in
tricate march and forming in place again,
the enthusiasm was unbounded.
Tuesday was the Junior day, and Capt.
J. L. Hardeman, having been invited to
to address the Lysian and Eunomiati so
cieties, made a splendid effort, and won a
handsome bouquet from the;Junior girls,
and almost won the hearts of all the
young ladies; so Mrs. H. had better send a
herald next time to proclaim her exist
ence, or he may be captured bodily.
Tuesday night the members of the two
laiger societies gave an entertainment,
but owing to the large crowd, and the fact
that we had to take a back seat, we lost
much of the programme. Cinderella was
enacted in a different manner from the
usual old way, being recited in verse, and
having a real gilded chariot and horses to
bear Cinderella to the ball; and as she
stepped in and waved an adieu to the
fairy godmother, many a youth envied
the prince who was to meet her at the
ball.
On Wednesday the Seniors delivered
well written orations and essays, and in a
brief address ten diplomas were presented
by President Lambdin.
"Rev. W. A. Candler was then intro
duced and made the address to the grad
uating class, taking for his subject “South
ern Literature.”
The music interspersed throughout the
four days* exercises was of a high order,
and showed a master’s hand in the selec
tions and drilling of the pupils. Thus
ended one of the most brilliant commence
ments that it has been our good fortune
to attend in many years, and we echo the
sentiments ofBaruesviilians when we say
success to Gordon Institute and its faculty.

New York, July 14—At a meeting of
the Republican State executive commit
tee, at the Fifth Avenue Hotel this after-
noou, on motion of General Arthur, Thos.
C. Platt was chosen permanent chairman.
Temporary headquarters are ordered to be
opened at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Henry
A. Glidden was chosen secretary.
This afternoon General Hancock visited
Mr. English at the Fifth Avenue Hotel,
and, after a short conference, left the
building with him. The general, on en

members of the national committee and
other Democratic politicians.
The Democratic national executive com
mittee met shortly after 1 o'clock this
afternoon. Wm. H. Barnum was elected
chairman; F. O. Prince, secretary, and
Gen. Duncan S. Walker, of Washington,
assistant secretary. Members of the Dem
ocratic congressional campaign committee
waited on them and made a long state
ment as to their views of how the cam
paign should be carried on and the part
they intended to take in it. The commit
tee is still in session.
New York, July Id.—The Democratic
national committee before they adjourned
added the name of D. F. Jonas, of Loui
siana, to the executive committee, which
now numbers eighteen members. The
matter of two Democratic electoral tickets
in Virginia came up, and after brief discus
sion was referred to the executive com

Joseph Ilance, of Albany, was chosen
second assistant secretary of the commit

Wushixgtox, July 14 —Attorney Gen
eral Devens furnishes the following ex-
pi anation of the statement that “lie lias
decided that he will not authorize the ap
pointment of any special election depu
ties in tlie South at the next election ex
cept perhaps in Virginia.” He says spe
cial election deputies are appointed by
tlie marshal in the respective districts
upon tlie requisition of citizens in those
districts. They are not appointed by the
attorney general r.or by any authority
from him. While no provision has beeu
made for the payment of these deputies, it
is expected by the attorney general, should
proper application he made to marshals
under the circumstances stated in the stat
utes, that they will do their utmost to en
force the elout;<i:i laws. He deems tlie
claim of such deputies to be hereafter paid
for their services as clearly recognized by
the statutes.
was extended, via Madison on the Georgia
railroad, to Athens, connecting witli the
Northeastern at that point, and with the
Air-Line at Lula? Take your map and
compare the distances on two side3 of the
triangle formed by the road from Macon to
Atlanta, as one side, and the road from
Atlanta, to Lula as the other, with the
distance of the straight line of a road as
the base, connecting your city with Athens
and the Air-Line, via Hillsboro, Shady
Dale and Madison. The distance to Athens
is very little more than to Atlanta, the
route equally as favorable for construction,
aud the intermediate country the very best
iu Georgia. Should the Northeastern he
extended through Rabun Gap, as is con
templated, to Knoxville, Tenn., and a con
nection made from thence with the Cin
cinnati Southern, you wiil have a road to
the North and West that can compete
successfully with existing lines. In other
words, two routes to the granaries and
smoke-houses of the West, with the short
est line to New York. If this is not so,
show where I have made an error. It
seems that this field is open for a great
flank movement by the managers of the
Macon and Brunswick railroad. The
“Northeastern” perhaps would be glad to
meet the extension at Madison, and find
the “sea breeze” sooner than in any other
direction—then, there are only about sixty
miles of road to build, and it woul l be lo
cated on the best land in the State. If the
terms of the leare require that the road
should go more directly to Atlanta, an act
ol tee legislature can remove this or other
difficulties.
If it is desirable, most effectually, to
develop the resources of the State, double
the taxable valuation of the fine lands
along tlie proposed route, bring our
State Uiiiversity in easier access,
connect directly middle and north
eastern Georgia, make Macon indepen
dent of Atlanta and the Central railroad,
atid shorten the route to New York by
severa* hours, then use every effort to in
duce tlie managers of the Macon and
Brunswick railroad to adopt the route to
Athens, connecting witli the “Air-Line”
as suggested.
This is Macon’s great opportunity to
cut the meshes that restrain her growth,
and to attain the leading position among
the cities of the future to which she should,
aspire, oil account of her geographical’po-
sition and minor local considerations’ of
great importance in promoting necessary
enterprise.
I know nothing about the present status
of the Macon aud Brunswick railroad,
jand cannot find anyone that docs; but
I know that tlie extension as contem
plated by tlie legislature lias not been
made, nor even begun, and that the people
of Georgia desire the road to be placed
where it “will do the most good,” all laws
to the contrary notwithstanding; and that

Paris, July 14.—M. Gambetta made a
tour through the central quaver, and was
received with immense enthusiasm
wherever he appeared. The Place do la
Bastile is brilliantly illuminated with
many colored lights, and the avenues and
streets near it are lit up like day. In all
quarters ofthe city the principal buildings
and squares are illuminated, and many
beautiful and artistic transparencies are
displayed. Besides a grand concert at the
Trocadero, whicli is attended by from
15,000 to 20,000 people, musical perform

* The Heat in New York.
New York, July 14.—There were 117
deaths in the city duriug the past twenty-
four hours, amongthem 71 children under
one year, who died from the effects of the
heat. Four fatal cases of sunstroke were
reported this evening.

Paris, July 14.—In the Senate yester
day, M. Maguin, minister of finance, sta
ted that the treasury would, during the
current year, be able to redeem 107,000,-
000 francs worth of treasury bonds, not-
witiistanding tlie sacrifice of 153,000,000
of francs, nominally, of taxation through
tlie reduction of taxes on wine and sugar,
which had been voted to take effect from
the first of October next. M. Maguiu
said he expected an increase in the con
sumption of sugar would materially de
crease the nominal loss of revenues, and
that, according to the lowest calculation,
this year’s revenue would exceed the
budget ostiinate hv twenty per cent.
London; July 14.—In reply to a ques
tion in the House of Commons yesterday,
about correspondence between the powers
with reference to tlie Berlin conference,
Sir Charles Dilke, under-foreign secre
tary, said the government would not en
courage any proposal uot in complete ac

Paris, July 14.—The grand opening
ceremony of the national fete took place
this afternoon in the hippodrome at .Long
Champs. President Grevy, accompanied
bv a brilliant staff, reviewed the troops
and delivered new colors to thej-egiinenU
in the presence of 100,000 people. Presi
dent Grevy, on presenting the flags, said
the army had become to Franco guaran
tees for the respect, due her and for tho
peace which she desired to preserve. At
the conclusion of his speech, which occu
pied only a few minutes, there were en
thusiastic cheers aud shouts of “Vive la
republique.” The scene was one of great
patrjoric enthusiasm.
London, July 14.—The House of Com
mons met at noon to-day and went into
committee of the whole on the compensa
tion for disturbance bill. Two hours
wc-re consumed in'dispute over a ruling of
the chairman of the committee, which, on
appeal to the spanker, was decided against
tho chairman. The Irish members de
nounced the government’s course regard
ing the bill as amended last night.
Lord Edward Cavendish, (Liberal)
momber for North Derbyshire, and
brother of.Lord Harrington, thought as
matters stood tlie passage of 'the bill was
hopeless, and after the attitude assumed
by Parnell the government would be
justified in abandoning the measure.
The Irish members talked, out of the
session of committee, of preventing action
on the government’s amendment. Mr.
Gladstone said the government was deter
mined to persevere witli it and not be
thwarted by this sort of opposition. He
appointed to-morrow for continuance.
Mr. Gladstone said if a rejection of tlie
bill were decided on, a proper motion to
that end ought to he Aiade. He urged
tlie House to go forward with tho details
of the bill, and not .o tolcrato continued
violations of the i ulos of procedure, as
the character of the House was concerned
in upholding the established methods of
transacting business.
London, July 14.—At a meeting ofthe
Irish party last night, it was unanimously
resolved that Gladstone’s amendment lim
iting the operation of the compensation
bill to tenants paying £30 and under, de
stroys nearly all the usefulness of the
measure, and renders it dangerous to the
existence of the small tenants, by affording
further inducements to landlords to con
solidate tlie : r holdings. The meeting also
resolved to move to report progress when
the bill is again discussed, In order to
afford time to tenant farmers to consider
whether they will accept the measure.

THIRTY THOUSAND KNIGHTS.
The Urnml Triennial Conclave in An-
east—A JPnnulo of Unprecedented
Hagni licence.
A recent issue of a Chicago journal says:
Among the occasions which will excite
and interest the citizens of Chicago, and
draw crowds of visitors to it duriug tue
coming year, the most magnificent in point
of numbers of people attending it, aud in
goigeousncss of display, will be the Grand
Encampment of Knights Templar. The
official name of this meeting is “The Trien
nial Conclave of the Graud Encampment
of Knights Templar of the United States.”
This is the supreme legislative body
of the Sir Knights in the country,
and is composed of the present
Grand Commander, the Very Emi
nent Deputy Graud Commander, the
Grand Generalissimos, and Grand Captain
Generals of the several Graud Coin-
manderics in tlie different States, Terri
tories and Provinces under the Masonic
supervision of the Encampment, and all
Past Right Eminent Grand Commanders
and Past Grand Officers of the Grand
Encampment. This body of men, num
bering about 500, wiil meet upon the
level in their official legislative capacity,
on Monday, August 18th, and continue
their session tlirough the entire week,
parting upon the square on the following
Saturday. The present Most Eminent
Graud Master, who will preside over the
deliberations of the Encampmeut, is Dr.
Vincent L. Hurlbut, of this city.
This Conclave, while it is of great im
portance to the Masonic fraternity, would
not in Itself interest the people of the
country generally. But its great sig
nificance to Chicago arises from the great
numbers of Sir Kuights, not members of
tlie Grand Encampment, who will attend
iu their representative capacity. They
will c ime as an escort to accompany the
Encampment on its passage to tlie “asy
lum,” which wii! be a cruciform buiidiug
soon to be erected on the lake frout. It
is the presence of this body that will
maxes the occasion of so much importance
to Chicago.
For the last year the committees in
Chicago have been at work sending out
invita.ions to different Commandencs of
the United States, aud making arrange
ments for their entertainment. The way
in which these invitations were answered
early siiowed that a great crowd will bo
here. While the number that have made
application for entertainment, have not
yet been footed up, an approximate esti
mate shows that not far from 30,000 Sir
Kuights from different parts of the coun
try and of tho world, will he present to
participate in the parade. These, the ap
plications show, are many of them in
tending to bring their wives. Nor will
these elements compose the whole crowd
that Chicago will have to accommodate at
that time.

very highly of the performances of the*
fireless locomotives at work in and near
Paris, on the street railways, and the
opinion seemed to be general that the
device offered an excellent solution of the
problem of street tramway working. The
advantages claimed for this arrangement
arc as follows: No danger of explosions
in the street, or of accident to the boiler;
no red glimmer from the fire during the
night; no burning cinders dropped on the
road; no cases of fire or other accidents
caused by the engine; no noise produced
by the valves, blow-off cocks or blast; no
smoke, soot or disagreeable smell of burnt
gases; no stoppages resulting from the
burning out of firebars, cracking of plates,
leakage of tubes or other causes—and
to to all these is likewise added that
whith, perhaps, may be considered as im
portant as any, namely, the economy
which can be realized.
Our readers have already been informed
ofthe death by lightning of Mr. J. O.

clement since the war. One brother had
a mule killed under him and was severely

another was injured by it. We dare say

sides tlie footmen, several of the Com
manderies amouut to 500 men, will be
mounted. At tlie time of the “Grant
boom” last fall, it was thought an
extraordinary tiling that there should
he eighteen bands of music iu the proces
sion. But the committees are assured
that not less than 120 brass bands, the
most perfect in America, numbering from
twenty to seventy pieces each, will furnish
tlie music for this great demonstration.
These, iu brief, are tlie components of
the escort which will accompany the
Grand Encampment through the streets
to the “asylum.”
The Chicago commanderies have pre
pared a most eiegaut entertainment for
their visiting brethren, the programme of
which has already beeu published in the
Times. They have engaged Central Music
Hall, Farwell Hall, McCormick Hall, and
the Exposition buiidiug, for the four days.
They will also treat the visitors to free
seats in all the principal theatres. Boat
excursions will be constantly taking place
and a grand hall will he given on Tuesday
evening in the Exposition buiidiug. Since
the programme was printed a new prize
has been added to the list, for which the
Commanderies will compete on Wednes
day at the Jockey Club Bark. It is open
to Commanderies enteriug under the name
of the Grand Commanderies from which
they hail.

to show that the occasion will uot be

THE LOTTERY.
“Olt! please to take a share!”
It happened at the fair;
Her eyes were piercing through me like a
lance;
Her dress was so complete,
Her voice so very sweet,
I could not well refuse to take a chance.
I gave a glance around.
No watching eyes I found,
Then, .as a bee the luscious honey sips, .
With eager, burning haste, '
I caught h®r ’bout tlie waist,
And took “a share” of two delicious lips.
The maiden did notscream—
The tiling was but a dream;
I found myself reposing in my bed.
Alas! love’s lottery
Is full of blanks for me,
I only drew—the bed-quilt o’er my head.
