ttt*5br Jottimstt & Ctltgtapli * Jfeseiigtt. 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.

Editors Telegraph and Messenger: How flourishing town, and feel in duty bound national committee assembled this mom- much nearer would your city be to New to say that in hospitality, magnanimity of j ing at the Fifth Avenue hotel, Senator , York if the Macon and Brunswick railroad soul, and vim in general, itsurpasscs any- Baruum presiding. The number of the 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. “Rambler” pointed as an executive committee: W. II. Baruum, chairman; F. O. Prince, Mas sachusetts; George F. Barnes, Georgia; Wm. C. Goundry, Illinois; Austin H. Brown, Indiana; W. M. Ham, Iowa; Henry D. McHenry, Kentucky; Outer- bridge Horsey, Maiyland; H. H. Kelley, Maine; Alvah n. Sulloway, New Hamp shire; Orestes Cleveland, New Jersey; Abram S. Hewitt, New York; M. W. Ransom, North Carolina; Wm. W. Arm strong, Ohio; Wm. L. Scott, Pennsylva nia; Thomas O’Conner, Tennessee; B. B. Smalley, Yenuont. After routine business, the committee adjourned subject to call ofthe chair, and the members subsequently proceeded in a body to the residence of ex-Governor Til- den, to pay their respects to that gentle man. The executive committee will or ganize to-day. 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 tering the hotel, was warmly greeted by 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 mittee. Joseph Ilance, of Albany, was chosen second assistant secretary of the commit tee, and Edward I>. Dickinson stenogra pher. Messrs. Hewitt, Smalley and Bar num were appointed a committee to se cure permanent headquarters, and Messrs- Hewitt, Cleveland, Scott, Smalley and Horsey as an advisory committee A sub-committee, consisting of Messrs. Baruum, Hewitt aud Scott, were, ap pointed to confer with the suit-committee from the Democratic Congressional cam paign committee in regard to the manage ment of the campaign. The latter sub committee consists of Senators Whyte, of Maryland, McDonald of Indiana, Wallace of Pennsylvania, Ilunton of Virginia, Au gustus Schell of New York, and Duncan S. Walker, of Washington. It was deci ded that the executive committee should meet on the second Tuesday in each month at noon, and the matter of estab lishing a branch ia tlie West was dis cussed, but uo action taken on it. The committee then adjourned to meet again Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock iu Fifth Avenue Hotel. 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 The French National Fete. 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 ances on a grand scale arc going on iu different districts of the city. The vast crowds at these performances, and in the streets, although full ot patriotic excite* ment, are very orderly. * 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. Foreign. 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 cord with the policy of European concert. Her Majesty’s government continues to receive assurance from all the powers, without exception, of their desire to main* tain that concert. 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. A London correspondent ofthe Man chester Guardian says: Lord Roseberry will accept the uuder-seerctaryship for India, made vacaut by the resignation of the Marquis of Lansdowne, if his tempor ary absence aud indisposition arc uot re garded as obstacles. Lord Roseberry Is now in Germany. 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 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. Mann, a mail rider on one of the Meri wether routes. We were told ou yester day that he was the fourth member of the family who had been struck by this fiery clement since the war. One brother had a mule killed under him and was severely injured himsclft another had his panta loons and boot legs torn open, and still another was injured by it. We dare say there is not another such instance on rec ord.—Griffin Netcs. man can see the whole procession. Be 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.
