SATURDAY EYEIXG CAMP MEADE. leral (iraham is Preparing for tbe Jiovenieni or his corps. General Graham has not received by mail any official orders regarding the reorganization of the army. He knew nothing about the concentration of the Second, Fourth and Seventh corps in the South prior to transfer to Cuba for garrison duty. Orders were received this morning to.

begin the movement of the troops to Georgia on the 27th inst. This Mill interfere with the arrangement for the trip to Philadelphia of one half of the corps. General Graham is doing all in his power to prevent a disappointment to tiie people of Philadelphia, and as soon as he receives official orders from Washington as to what troops are to be moved first, he will arrange for at least one division to go to Philadelphia. This will probably be a provisional division. The day set for the removal is the same as the date of the peace jubilee in Philadelphia.

The Fourth Xew Jersey will reach Camp Meade to morrow from Camp Vor hees, Sea Girt. This regiment has been in process of reorganization. It will probably reach here by way of the Philadelphia Reading Railway and will be located near the First Delaware battalion. A third division is to be formed, to be made up' of detached troops from other regiments and the Jerseymen. In view of the positive date fixed a removal of the troops orders will issued to dav restricting future furloughs and leaves of absence.

The various commands will also be instructed to get in all the soldiers now away, even if it becomes necessary to cut 'down the leaves of those now absent. Muster rolls, books and various papers are being revised for the final inspection of the corp3 before the movement begins. General Graham could not say just how long the troops would remain in the South, but the language of the official order issued by General Miles yesterday indicates that they may be sent away to Cuba by regiments and brigades on short notice. It is thought at corps headquarters that the stay in the Southern camps will not exceed three weeks. Orders were issued this morning to equip the entire corps with new ponchos of a better more adapted for service in cold weather campaigning.

No more supplies will be issued after this week, and those on hand are being sent daily to Southern camps. It has been unofficially announced among the Pennsylvania regiments that papers are now being prepared to enable the soldiers to cast their votes in the new camps. The Fourteenth Pennsylvania, over which there has been so much controversy, is to remain in the service and it is stated that they will be sent to the Philippines. A large excursion from Scranton arrived to day to visit the boys of the Thirteenth Pennsylvania. Large preparations had been made by the soldier boys to receive their friends, but the rain interfered in some measure with the success of the trip.

Col. Girard received word from Philadelphia this morning of the safe arrival of the sick sent there in two special trains yesterday. No new cases of typhoid were reported this morning, and the Colonel feels very much gratified and thinks that the disease has been checked. Even with the rainy weather of yesterday the sick report this morning showed very few soldiers under the doctor's care. With the reported movement of the troops the to recruit tbe bands to thirty five are expected.

It is understood that musicians are to be assigned to hos pital duty in foreign countries. Uoingr to Philadelphia. 'As the result of the visit of Mayor Warwick and his party to Philadelphia yesterday, morethan 10,000 troops will be sent from Camp Meade to take part in the jubilee parade on the 27th of October. General Graham, in order to prevent any dissatisfaction among the division and brigade commanders, will constitute a provisional division for the jubilee trip. As nearly as possible all the States having troops at Camp Meade will be represented.

General Gobin will command the Eighth and Thirteenth Pennsylvania and Fifteenth Minnesota, which comprise his brigade. General Oates will command the Fourteenth Pennsylvania, Third Connecticut and Two Hundred and Second New York. General Chambers McKih bin will ride at the head of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania, Thirty fifth Michigan and First Maryland. General ColA will have command of Fifth Massachusetts, Second and" Fourth Missouri. The Ninth Ohio colored battalion will accompany corps headquarters.

In addition to these troops Major Gcneral Graham and Staff Generals Young and Davis and their staffs will ride at the head of the long column of the volunteers. Every one of the four Pennsylvania regiments at Camp Meade will go to Philadelphia with full ranks, but some of the other regiments wifT be represented by battalions, so as not to exceed about ten thousand men.

This is a paragraph from the lecture on "Abraham Lincoln:" "God's prophets have the right of way. They come by divine appointment. They open a new door, conquer a new foe plant a new republic or found a new civilization. Serving most they are greatest. Mankind will never forget Moses, or Abraham, or Pericles, or Paul, or Richelieu, or Cromwell, or Washington.

Mankind will never forget the hero we add to their little company, Abraham Lincoln, who had the faith of Abraham, the leadership of Moses, the statesmanship of Pericles, the massive intellectual force of St. Paul, the political sagacity of Richelieu, the integrity of Cromwell and the patriotism of Washington." Bishop Fowler has a splendid theme. Lincoln was not born of the schools, but was rough hewn, in nature's mold, a star of the first magnitude, a diamond of the first water. Without any knowledge of military tactics whatever, yet he said to General Burnside, in front of Fredericksburg, after the General had explained proposed military movements: "General, I do not know much about your military tactics, but be very careful that you. do not get your army, hung up in the middle, like a steer astride a fence, so that you can neither hook with your horns or strike with your heels." The President was right in his advice, and Burnside was unhappy to see his army "hung up in the middle and incapacitated from either hooking with its horns of striking with its heejs," like Lincoln's proverbial steer." The burden of the nation rested with crushing weight upon the heart of the great President.

In this lecture there is presented to the people of Harrisburg the opportunity of a lifetime. Not many men are 'mentally competent to handle such a subject, but the story of Abraham Lincoln, his birth, his rise, his work, his sufferings, is in com petent hands, and Pastor Leilich's Churcl should be erowded upon this oc casion.

Jesus at last reveals himself to the Women with the words, "All hail! Blessed are ye Women," accompanied Jjy the typical melody, of which mention has already been made. The three Women disappear on the way to convey his message to the Disciples, and the scene changes to the Sanhedrim, where, in a tumultuous and agitated chorus for male A oices is risen the story of the empty tomb is told by the Watchers.

In the close the effect is sublime, the climax 'reaching to in alt Avith the full power of the accompanying forces. Then follows a dialogue between the Saviour and his Apostle, in which he gives them their mission to the Avorld. The finale then begins with a massive chorus ye Portals The celestial chorus aboA'e, accompanied by harps and trumpets, inquire, "But who is he, the King of Glory?" The answer comes in a stately unison by the terrestrial chorus, "He who Death overcame." Again the question is asked, and again it is answered; whereupon the' two choirs are massed in the jubilant chorus, "Unfold! for lo the King comes nigh!" the full orchestra and organ sounding the Redemption melody, and the whole closing with a fanfare of trumpets. The part includes the prophecy of the millennium, the descent of the Holy Ghost to the Apostles, the Pentecostal manifestations, and the Hymn of the The latter is so important that the composer's OAvn analysis is appended: "This division of the third part of the Avork, the last one of the most highly developed of the trilogy, comprises seven numbers, and gives a summary of the Christian faith.

Lieutenant Governor Walter Lyon arrived home from Philadelphia, where he had been in attendance at the hearing of the political charges brought by "influential citizens" against Senator Quay, R. R. Quay and Charles 11. McKce, Mr. Lyon's law partner.

"There is not the slightest criminal grounds for these charge," said Governor Lyon, that is sself CA'ident from tho manlier of entering the prosecutions. "They wore simply brought for political effect, but the purpose of the instigators will miscarry. Had there been any grounds for the charges such would have been entered at a time that would permit of a speedy trial, but instead of this they have been brought just on the eve of election, Avhen no adequate redress may be had for the accused. If it Avas not done for political effect, why did they hold off until after the first Monday in October? They Avere in possession of this reputed information early enough to enter suit in September, so that the case could come to trial and be disposed of before election, but no, they held off, thinking by this means they could delude the public into a belief that there was something Avrong in the transaction. "Senator Quay always maintained a personal account with the bank, and all his transactions Avere perfectly regular, and not a cent of State money ever affected.

As regards the $100,000 said to have been loaned in the. New Castle Street Car matter, that was purely a business transaction between Mr. the president of the bank, and Senator Quay's son Dick. The bank bad a perfect right to loan funds, ami there was nothing irregular in the transactions. The money loaned avus not State funds, but the funds of the bank, and Avas thoroughly secured by collateral, and was met by Richard Quay when the obligations came due."
