DassDBtf, September 8. A friend of ours, whose carte de visfte Informed us that he was a mathematical student of tbe Dresden Polytechnic Institute," sent to ns one pleasant summer day an invitation to tbe Soinmcr Fest of tbe Crato Singing Club, or blue cap corps" as they are called in this city, which invitation kindly allowed us to be present; but at the same time granted us the privilege of paying for all wo either ato or drank while there. This privilege we were, however, thankful for, as very few Americans ever get the opportunity of taking part in anything ofthe kind. Our invitation stated that the first part of the entertainment would consist of a concert and supper at the filazerwitzer Hoi," or Hotel de Blazewiiz, which is about eight miles up tue Elbe Iroui Dresden. So a o'clock Iu the afternoon found ns being helped from our carriage bv a student iu velvet jacket with a broad blue and white silk sash across his breasi, embroniered iu gold with tbe corps: monogram, and on one side of his bead a little blue aud gold cap about the size of a lea saucer, which last article added stiU one more charm to his sword slashed face.

Once inside the hotel ganien a very pretty fcene, and one which could onlv be witnessed in Germany and among the Germans, met our view. Some fifty tables were arranged so that all present could get a good view of the music platform, and at each table were from four to a dozen ladies and gentlemen, yonng and old, for iu that laud no one I is too old lo enjoy an open air concert; scattered all about were the pretty uniforms orthes-udents, every gentleman was smoking, and all, witn the exception of a few overdressed young ladies, who seemed afraid of the delicate cherry red of their lips, were drinking beer. Presently tbe concert began, and after two or three very tine selections rendered by one of the best German military bauds" the students sane. If tbe readers of the Tlitm hare ever heard Der Deutscher students" sing they kuow what it is; if not, they must permit me to tell them that it is true music. For the German to sing is as easy as to breathe and he does it soemin ly ulthiu effort.

Tbe concert lasted until almost, dark, during which time all present had been eating aud drinking anything they chose to pay for. At 7:30 oue of the studeuta. announced that all would now please go to the river, half a mile distant, following the students, who led in a band, singing. At the river we found some sixtv long, flat boats lashed together iu threes and decorated with myriads of lanterns. Iu these boats, or gondolas, as they are called, we ail found places, one set being occupied by the students and au immense keg of beer, another by the fireworks.

Aud for two hours we just floated idly down with the current, listening ui the siuging of the corps and watching the fireworks. Almost every villa we passed burned colored fire, and rockets and Roman caudles were scut up on all making a beautiful effect. We had but one incident, oy the way one of the ladies of our party was named which in German means softly or quiet, onlv it is snelled Leisi- However, it sounds about the same when pronounced. Soine of the DeoDle in our Imat wrf rather too full of life, and the noise they roa uiiiuroeu a young gentleman Who was standing up at the front of the gondola. The lady of the quiet name was one of those whose laugh, er prevented others from bearing the music.

The young man in frout grew iuipmieut and calitd out Leise Leise 1" Our friend, who understood but littie German, was very mdignaut to think that thai saucy student" should dare to cali to her in that manner and address her by her given name too it is needless to say that after this the name ot Liza became a very popular one among her irieuus. Bt't all things, even the very pleasantest, will have an end, and so at last we drifted into Dres den about 10 o'clock. Still we were not through for tiie day, or I should say night. We were givcu one hour lo dress and then we all adjourned to a large uaurooui, wnere tne ureitmy waltz heid us euiuriiiiea until almost sunrise. The fest was uot yet over, for the student oe-lieves in letting himself down gently, and so he has a two fiavs' fest.

the first elegant. the second jolly. At 11 o'clock of the second day the students tneinseives meet in their ctuorooms and have w.hat is Known as the feast of and so at 4 P. M. we all went to the "Shiller Hof," a pretty little dancing hall and restaurant with a hand some garden overlooking the river.

At one end of the nail is a stage, and here the students made merry lor two or lliree hours, white we all drank beer and ale. Lit) you ask what the studuuts did Well this time they played triefcs. innersoni-d Tyrolean singers, some of them making very pretty gtris they san songs in chorus aud as solo, ami read their paper. This paper is the grand event aul its reading is looked forward to by every oue. It often contains some verv and clever things, both iu verse and prose, but, of course, much of it is local and of nios iuterest to Ihe members of the ctub.

Their manner of reading the paper is rather original. The editorial staff, consisting of five students, mount the platform, each with a pint glttss brtmiul of beer. Tbey stand in a row, bow very low, and as they raise their heads they raise their glasses and drills it almost seems at one swallow the entire contents of tha glass. Then the ediwir-iu-chief is astride a chair on the top oi a square each of his assistants taKing a corner. The chiel reads the paper, and after each article each student diooses ofaylass of beer, the glasses Leing replenished by a aiter.

At tne conclusion of the puper each guest present is presented ith a copy, i hey are prettily pnuted aud weil illustrated ptu aud ink sketches by the students. the hall is cleared for which Is indulged in uutil 12 o'clock, but no laier. Lio not supnose that because the students drink so much beer they ever drink too much. Each man knows to a glass bow much he can drink. and nothing ever tempts him beyond his limit, as tae penalty is dismissal from his corps.

They can, however, what wouid be to us an impossi ble quantity. Our friend told us that eiahteeu pint glasses was his limit, but that many of his friends could drink thirty-five, aud i believe it 16 stated that one student once reacned seventy-four gias-es. However, 1 am not responsible lor the exact truth ot mat statement. jd. B.

village and to assume an responsibility to maintain aud repaii the same. Each light will cost S16.75 Dr vear aud at this price the company will supply them for a term of three vears. The people heretofore have been averse to lights, or the expense of the same, but this Inducement, together with the growing necessity for some Illumination, has at last convinced them that tbe improvement must be made. Work will be commenced to day, and to-morrow night the village will present a bright appearance. The question ot water will next occupy toe attention ot the board.

When the oppressions of the mother country drove the hardy colouists to revolution, it was not oue of tne prime movers of the scheme that led them to victory, but a private Virginia gentleman who did not even sigu the Declaration of Independence.

When tne public mind had bien aroused to the enormity ot the sin of slavery and was rapidly Hearing the period of its abolition, it was not oue of the original abolitionists who was called to guide the people through the daugerous passage, but a country lawyer or llliuois who had little more tbau a local reputation. When armed hosts iu rebellion against the nation's authority threatened the possession of the Capitol the seat of government and the people saw the plans of their favorite old General and his successors fall, one after another, their every advance hurled baek iu contusion aud disaster, it was not from the officers of the regular army or men of prominence that the couutry's savior came, but from a little obscure couuiry tan yard in a Western State there appeared a modest, unassuming man who was lo be (be instrument under God of restoring the iu-tegrity of his country and of winning lor himself a military renowu tt.at eclipses the achieveme -its of all the world's heroes Clysses Simpson Grant. Of him I am here to speak to-nignt. No wouder that so many are congregated here to-night to pay tribute to the hallowed memory and exulted of him wnom the nation will never forget. Whocan loryet the thrill of anguish which every niau, womau and child througnout the land felt when the wire and cable flashed the sad tidings to the four corners of the earth that the greatest military chieftain of the nineteenth century was no longer amidst his comrades and couutrvmeu of ihe earth, but had crossed tbe river and was resting beneath the shade of heaven's fair trei-s, there to await the coming of the millions to follow Ueu.

Ulysses Simpson Grant had left us, but his unprecedented work he gave as a legacy to niscouulrymeu and comrades. Tbe principle for which ne fought triumphed and the broken chains of the slaves are but mute witnesses of his victories. Truly, he was great, and could be termed tne greatest military strategist of modern times. When the life of the nation was threatened, when the snip of stale had her hag Lalf uast, tossed upon the sea of blood and war. Grant's geuius was ealied iuto operation for je maturing of plana to effect the rehoistiug of the to tne masthead, and to bid the lurbulant naves subside- At tnat time it called lor the mind and skill possessing the greatest to cope with the mighty difficulties and dangers, which had engulfed the nation.

Qcestious most momentous, aud altogether new, iu the country's history, were themselves, and upon their solution depended not ouly its welfare, but its existence. a3 one of the dominant powers the nations. To have succeeded required the greatest wibdom, souacity, hrmness and moderation. But He wbo holds in the hollow of His haud tne destinies of nations, mistakes not in his agents for the accomplishment of his vast designs. Therefore Grant was found to possess those qualifications necessary to conduct this country through the ordeal to wh'cn sue was subjected, thrs to preserve the stability of the Government and at the same time to vindicte the correctness of the principle upon which it was founded.

Choseu Commander-in-Chief of the Army of the Republic he bruU-hi to the discharge of his great aud arduous dunes a heart sincere and honest, with wisdom practical and sound, sustained bf tuoial courase so steady and unwavering as to pre-eminently tit him lor the exalted position he tilled. With a fixed principle to deleud the right, he turued his face towards the nation's foe. and with the bravery ol a Wellington, the resolution of a Brutus, the pertinacity of a Bonaparte aud the siucerity of a Washiugtou. His cry was "Onward," until the last foe grounded his arms aud swore allenianee to tne flag he had fought to destroy. One oi Uie most disiiuguisning trails of his character was his huiuamty.

His heart was the heart to feel that every man was a brother. This he cleariy demonstrated beneath tne apple tree at Appomattox. When Lee, whose commanding form and stately step, with tne manly bearing and steady tread of a brave soldier, advanced fur the purpose of surrendering all that is iear to a true military chieftain, his sword the great heart of a modern Alexander Grant would not allow hiTiself to humiliate a fellow soldier, although a foe. Great soul, large heart, manly man Having succes-siolly crushed the rebellion, he naturally yearned to enter tiie walks of private life; but no, the people had decided otherwise. Since he had become the cherished idol of the Republic, and although ne did gloriously strike his tents in the bloody held of battle, he was constrained to continue his march, ascending higher aud higher, until the highest gift at the disposal of his countrymen was deservedly laid at his feet.

President for two consecutive terms through good and evil report, in the midst of the raging storm when factional feelincs ran high, wnen all seemed convulsed with sectional hatred, and no ark 'or refuse appeared ou the terribly troubled waters he was true to his duty, and to the high eminence from which his sense of dtny derived in-piration and guidauce. Fearless iu danger, unshaken in adversity, hopeful when the bravest almost despaired, calm amid the wild and clamorous excitement of success, imperturbable in the general ecstasies of triumph, he was resolute when in despondeuey. The successful terminalKii of the nation's tronbles can with safety aud nil truthfulness be attributed to the nation's sleeping hero. Hear him! Lis en When In the loftiness of his soul and purity of motive, he uttered this talis-manic senieuce, Lei us have-peace." From tr.at hour tt-e troubled waters obeyed his command, and the storm-driven ship of state began to sail in a more quiet sea, until to-day the blue and Ihe gray are shaking hauils no longer as foes but friends; no longer as citizens of a divided country, but as suffrafcisu of a strong united Republic. Y'es, hij mandates have been obeyed.

Peace prevails! The forests which echoed with the roaring of cannon, are now melodious with the chirping of birds. The fields which were strewn with sabres and bayooets are now covered with crops of wheat and clover. Our farms which were trampled beneath hoofs of war steeds are now peacefully productive of vegetables and fruit; also producing seed to the sower and bread to the consumer. All these are indicative of the consummation of peace. It Is only at long intervals that supremely groat men appear in the world's history, and few nations have produced them, but our favored land lu its short career as a nation has been blesssed with three men whose names will live for all time Washington, Lincoln, aud last but uot leas Ulysses Simpson trrant Then Silver Spray Circle, consisting of the young ladies of Bethel A.

August 26, 1887. In accordance with my usual custom of cross i the Atlantic aud visiuiug plucea in the Old World that can be reproduced pictorially by illu-trated that afford iimmictiou to those who have not time or opportunity to no themselves, I decided this year to lake a more southerly route and to reach rav destination by water communication ratuer than by rail. I had heard from friends that not only was the Fkrk Ruhottino Line a saie and well managed company, but in certain particulars it possessed advantages of comfort aud recreation that. in the crash aud erase for rapid transit, could nut be enjoyed iu mora nunhora latitudes, and that this Italian company, made up in substantial and satisfactory ways what they lacked in rapidity of communication. The weather iu New York previous to my departure had been unexampled in the moisture of the atmosphere aid the opprcssire temperature of the city, but no sooner had we got away from the laud toaa we enjoyed cool breezes and singularly trauquil eas, so that among the many pleasiug recollections of the voyage none are more gratefully reca.led thun this ttehgutful change from prostratiug humidity to refreshing cootuess, a cuudition of comfort that accompanied us on our entire jouruey.

Those woo hare been overwhelmed by the heut on the Bauksof Newfoundland and hare been robbed of their rest and almost su (located by the want of necessary ventilation, will appreciate ihe entire absence of such experience in toe more southerly voyage of the Atlantic. Our good ship Ind. pendente was a 4.500-ton vessel, with admirable interior accommodations, possessing alt the ad-antagea ot make and material that has contributed to give the C'vd-) shipyards the highest commends; um all over the world, Wiieu a vessel eonsuues 300 tons of coal a day, if the wind follows the ship, the heat becomes equatorial and the stokers endure the temperature of salamanders. Our consumption being nothing in comparison to the Elruria or Umbria. our comparatively moderate, and I tb iu I am accurate in saying that our average day's sail was about 270 in ilea.

The hip seemed more homeuxe and having no high preswe puliug, ditferine; as a rare horse differs from a good, substantial family horse doing its work quietly aud reliably. The crew numbered ebout sixty-seven, Siciliane. attending to their work thoroughly aud couscieuliously. The Captain aud officers of this line are all first-class seamen, holding certificates as masters of ships, competent to take charge should their superiot be incapacitated by aceideut or sickness. 1 gratefully now express mr sense of appreciation for the many kicduesses tbey showed me duruig the voyage.

Cap" Tonda, the eommander of the Indipen-deme, isouj of those men whose indlv.duality is so strong tuat his influence readies into every detail of the ship known and honored tor thirty -five years tor bis sound judgment and fidelity to duty, as is the Commodore of tiie Atlantic Line in appearance handsome, with a voice gentle as a child, aud when on doty nses a voice as rich aud resoiian.as the tones of rial vini but it is not only as a sailor that we remember him. When his duties on the deck did not need his presence, at the bead of his tatle, always genial and a.fable, possessing a fund of conversation that travel iu every clime had enabled him to gather. A more agreeable Captain to his passengers aud a more faithful guariiiau to all that con denied the security ot bis ship I have no. met in my travels. We had not as many travelers as generally cress in the winter months, but from the very fact that we were limited, we enjoyed more tbur-oughiy the companionship of ne few we had.

It was like an old-time voyaee, when friendships were formed liat existed for years. It may be interesting to give a passing of those Keu-tlemen passeugers, as illustrating the educational character of American life ot persons now residing iu Europe, as well as those who are returning tor a short visit to the Old World, inpressed with enormous supeiiority of our Republic. The American merchant residing abroad was most agreeably presented in Mi. now a resident of Malaga, where his father before him had been connected with Spanish commerce. Educated in the North, he possessed the energetic qualities of the American, with a refinement and culture of our beat society, while at the satue time possessed ot a knowledge aud a familisrity with bpuuish life and ct-stom that made him thoroughly conversant with that country.

Besides the more 'serious side of mercantile life, this gentleman wasCaptainof the Malaga Yacht Club; he was therefore a most welcome addition to our number fend his companionship exceedingly eiijoabie. in the evening bis love of music and accomplishments in singing added greatly to our social pleasure. The Southern States were represented by a natura'-ized Italian from New Orleans, who left Bicily thiny-oue rears ago as a poor boy aud returning to his home as Uncle Sam's representative, the Consul appointed toCatauia. This gentleman gave one good idea what America can do for the industrious, intelligent and honest citizens. Here was one who worked his passage out to America, going back a trusted servant of the Government.

Mr. Vincent Lamauii, for such was his name, was as full of fun and humor as a boy, adding greatly to the life of the passengers, a great favorite witn every one, and had not cholera and quarantining made it impossible to go to Valermo, I should have beeu charmingly entertained by this kindly official. Time forbids me speaking of Mr. Joseph Centeno and others, who were returning for a brief visit to the'r old homs in Italy. Witn these aud oilier gentlemen we assembled at meals every day aud soon learned to grow friendly and intimate." The purser, Mr.

Ribaldon, who sat at fie bead of the table (when duty called the Captain away), had the management of the catering department, and thoroughly well did he discharge those duties. In all my voyages I have never sat down to more generous meals or better prepared lor the table. To the American stomaen it might seem that Italian cooking would haEdly be satisfactory, but in this we were all agreeably disappointed. After a delightful bath fresh from the and no delay or waiting in order to obtain it, we then had a thoroughly grod cue of coffee, such as could never be had cn Canard Line, where the coffee is execrable. Then at 9:80 we had dejeuner, which maus a regular dinner.

Soup, alwayi hot, good fish; for some days delicious salmon, tender meat and spring chickens, killed ou ship, Sicilian pastry, considered to be exceptionally good, fruit of all kind, besides a wholesome wine, that in moderation was healthy aud helpful to digestion. I ention details show how Amer ican this bill of fare sounds, aud vhen tne influence of the sea air had sharpened the appetite I need not say that we did justice to the viands. Our enjovmeut of the nighis was greatly enhanced by moonlight views that created a most romantic "effect aud enabled the deck to be a rendezvous for conversation and song.JSo clear was the sky the stars seem to rise out of the water, and wuen they set looker" like ship lights in the distance. To anyone a moderate good sailor sucn fortnight of rest from theturmoil and earo of business must be a rest of infinite advantage to mind aud bod. At notime wasth sea boisterously uncomfortable, and ueuerally as crliu and quiet as au inland lake.

Through the kindness of Capt. Tonda we had the use of bis sitting room, could examine maps, or read up the history of islands or main shore we passed on our journey. It was very interesting to on the bridge and watch the ap-Droach of ships that, ween tomine close, show ing red green light, wouid receive a simi'ar color from our ship, making collision impossible, if weather was clear. Alter we had been out aboct ten da7c we knew thU soon we would pass the southerly Island or Santa Maria, being tne of tte seven (hat constitute (his grot'p the Azores the population of these little colonies amouut to 241,000 souls they have a delightful climate aud can gro everything in the vegetable kingdom. The islands, it seems, were d-soovered forty years before America by the Portuguese.

It was a beautiful sight to see the land, rising 1,800 feet precipitously from the sea, clothed with emerald tiun, and the little villages aud villas dotting the insular landscape. One of the group, Pico, has a mountain 8,000 feet, and owing to the height, clouds gather iu sky and veil the summits of the hills, warning the mariner of his closeness to land. They have a Bishop to look after the spiritual wants of the people, while a Crown ofticer or Governor discharges the function of local administration. So accurate was the Captain in his that, after 1,800 miles of Atlantic Ocean, ne was within a half a mile of tbe It is quite remarkable, when once you get accustomed to ship life, how soou the days pass by aud how homelike ind bt ppy the hours can be, with reading, resting, refreshments and recreation, and what a break it mages in the tranquillity aud order of living to pass one day on shore. O.

course as we approached the coast of Africa and the stores of the Spanish Peninsula the number of ships increased, coming out and going into tbe Mediterauuean while the approach of night, the activity of the current that always sets in here for the Straits, demauds great care and watchfulobservation. The first point was Spartel Lighthouse," on the coast of Africa, hidden slightly by a laud mist that came over the sea. To the left of us was Trafalgar Jay, on the coast of the Province of Andalusia, whsre the British sailor gained a great victory and Admiral Nelson an immortality of fame. It seems that we passed through tbe Straits in a diagonal direction, or rather obliquely, eight or nine miles from Europa Point and gradually heading for Algeciras Bay, or the Bay of Gibraltar. Standing on the bridge it was very impressive to see lights on the coasts of two continents, many steamers and more sailing vessels, while we steadily steered for a white and red light that showed the way to the anchorage iu the bay.

Suddenly, when this point was rounded, a long row of lights came in view and we knew that our destination was safely reached. There, surrounded with aCeetof vessels and under the shadow of the great rock of Gibraltar (which was robed in a cloud, having retired for the evening, apparently), we cast anchor in 140 feet of water and quite close to the town. The Babel of noise that now surrounded ns. Coming from barges and boats, was a singular contrast to the death-like stillness that steals over the ship when tne machinery ceases from its labors, and the very quietness of the vessel is as great a preventive of sleep as the noisy and Irrepressible boatmen who surround tbe decks and are so many land sharks to the bewildered passenger. The view of Gibraltar in the morning was magnificent in the extreme.

Tbe air was transparent and coot, the harbor crowded with mighty ships, from whose masts waved the flag of their nationality. Great black bulks anchored at intervals in the bay were feeding the steamers with English eoaL It was a scene of intense activity, carried on with methodical regularity and cosmopolitan intercourse. Laying to the left for eight miles was the const of Spain, with the town of Algeciras in the distance; behind, lofty mountains that hid in their depths vast valleys and vineyards. Immediately In front was the neutral ground of sand that separates Snein from Gibraltar beyond this the Spanish market town that brings its produce to the fortress, with a great "bull ring" In the centre, telling of the love of their people for this brutal sport. To our right was the long drawn out street that constitutes the business portion of tbe Ear-flUhtownof Gibraltar.

Looking down upon us from a height of MOO feet is this stupendous citadel, whose solidity and military superiority has In no wax been lessened hi the modern modes of of waving the bloody shirt." XE3SON3 IN JST1QVKTTK. Two important cases bciore the Suffolk County Court at its late session were those of the people vs. Charles Banks and the people vs. William J. Weeks.

It is net indeed un usual for a' man to be tried for assault or for a libel suit to be threatened or pressed, but it is nnusual for a man to be fined $250 in the one instance and 150 in the other. Iu the case of Mr. Banks an aggravated as sault seems to have been, coturuiUel upon a poor peddler for am innocent trespass. Mr. Banks is a city man, baring a residence at Atlanticville, and is known to be wealthy.

The assault would have bad no justification even if the trespass had been more seriou3, but it may be doubted whether the fine would have been fixed at $'200 if Banks bad been a poor man. The result of the suit ought to be a lesson in manners to city pec pie living in the country or rather to such of them as need a lesson of the sort. The verdict in -the Weeks-case simply means that mud slinging in political cam paigns is indefensible. Of course everybody knew that before, but a little reminder of this sort may do no harm. ORGANIZED JfOR WORK.

The Republican State Committee met yes terday and promptly organised for the work of the campaign by the appointment of Cor nelius N. Bliss as Chairman, S. V. 'White as Treasurer, and Gen. John N.

Enapp as Chairman of toe Executive Committee. The Executive Committee lost no time in getting to work, and took possession of the campaign headquarters immediately. There is work enough to do and the Executive Commitee has done well in settling down at once to the serious business of the campaign. The people are ready to listen to the discussion of political issues Henry George has at least done good service in reviving pub-lio interest in political controversy. If the Republicans with their larger resources, better his example by an aggressive campaign and earnest, persistent advocacy of Repub lican doctrines, there need be little fear of the result.

It will not do to tike anything for granted. A heavy Labor Vote will not mean Republican victory if George and McGlynn are permitted to present their theories to the farmers without the illumination of hostile criticism. The Labor men and ti Prohibitionists are both zealously at work throughout the State trying to shake the allegiance of the agriculturists to the Republican party. They must be met in fair and open contro rersy if the Republicans expect to carry the State. We believe that New York will go Republican this year, but it will take some vigorous It 13 just as well to remember just now that what the Irish National League needs, even more than resolutions of sympathy, is money.

The Coercion act is likely to deprive many families of their breadwinners, and Ireland's friend? in the United States should see to it that, there is enough for their support in tbe coffers of the League. If there is any doubt in any one's mind about the fact, first announced the Times Boma weeks ago, that Mr. Benjamin W. Downing is a big power again in Queen County politics, that particular mind must be singularly difficult of conviction. Thebb must be Fomething wrong in the bead of a man who can describe holding land as "one of the worst monopolies" as well as in the head of the man who, holding that theory, seriously tries to mue converts of the New York farmers.

No. it was not District Attorney John Fleming who ran afoul of a power saw, but another John Fleming. The District Attor ney is a sort of buzz saw himself to miscreants? who collide with him in h's official capacity. Tug English ladies who showered boquets on John Dil'on at Mitchelstorn to-day, did more to promote the real union of England and Ireland than could be done by all the bayonets at the command of Bloody Mb. John J.

Ctasct is ma'dng a rousing canvass for the Mayoralty. He will not be elected, but he will have loads of fun and scare the old party politician? worse than tbey have bsen scared since since last year. Thi citizens who hae joined in the incorporation of a new bank for the Eastern District are men whose names are enough to inspire confidence. The new enterprise can scarcely fail to have a prosperous career. Tub Union Labor party of Cincinnati has decided not to petition for the Anarchists.

Whatever the members may do as individuals is their own business, but for the party this was a wise decision. Thk robbery of a number of vatches by a Port Washing'on jeweler has probably been referred to as a case of lost time about one hundred and fifty times already. Tns Fresh Pond crossing of the Long Island Railroad is a peculiarly dangerous ore, and many met their death there. Tan choice district" of Flushing is all Flushing.

Thb friends of temperance ii Brooklyn can't afford to indulge in Utter folly this year. A Card From Mr. Elliman. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Daily Timet: Sia: We wish to thank you for- the space you have always given ns for our public letters and for your able and full reports of our meetings, You have elven us aid and comfort" which we could have obtained in no other way. At this time we would congretualate our fellow-townsmen on the indictment by the Grand Jury of the Board of Excise.

This body of three men has been defying all "law and order" tor some time pas' in issuing licenses in spite of protests and appeals, and they have brought tneir present troubles entirely upon themselves. We would present to our energetic counsel. Judge Clarence A. Drew, our most cordial acknowledgments for bis skill and legal ability in bringing about this result. We would express our appreciation to the gentleman of the Grand Jury woe have rendered this righteous verdict and also to District Attorney Fleming and County judge Garretson, who instructed them in their duty.

We now give public notice that we shall continue this prosecution of all law breakers especially the unlicensed liquor dealers. We have several in view in oor village who are now making their places a public nuisance. We cannot undertake to consider at present the troublesome parties in other distiicta of our town. But we recommend the formation of organisations similar to ours with which we snail be glad to cooperate at any time. There is no reason why the excise laws should not be fully complied with in every detail, and we stand ready to compel their enforcement.

We have the right and the law on our side, and we must look to the officers of the people to do their duty. If they do not they must U-ke the consequences of their own acts. In all and through all our difficulties we ask the help of our Heavenly Father, and we render to Him the glory of every victory for Law and Order." Yours sincerely, WnxtAji Eli an.

In the interior of the State most of the county tirs have already been held, the earlier part of September being held in great favor for that purpose in the northern coco ties.

Indeed but few of these fairs are sow left, and those of Queens and Suffolk Counties, which will occur next week and the week after respectively, will comparatively close the season. Of course, these practically late dates are chosen for the Island fairs lecause of the milder climate, the difference between the southern and northern portions of the State in this respect being well illustrated by Gov. Hill at the Newlmrg fair yesterday, when he said that on April 5, 1880, Long Island farmers were planting trees while the northern farmers were still crossing Lake Champlain on the ice. In St. Lawrence County, some fifteen years ago, the farmers were breaking out the roads with ploughs and shovels, so heavy was the snow, on the 13th of April, while spring had fairly set south of the Highlands.

It is no wonder, then, that the dates of the county fairs should range frcm the last week in August in the northern part of the Slate to the fir3t week of October in Suffolk County. The Times has already given a full preliminary account of what will be done at Mineola next week and similar forecast of the fair at BiTerhead is published to-day from the pen of an accurate correspondent on She sttomkL It will be seen both points the prospects are excellent first-class ex hibition. The "purely agricultural horse trot" will figure largely at both fairs, but the long lists ft premiums offered for fruit and vegetables and domestic handiwork testify that the'' horse trotting features of the fair have not elbowed out of the way the other purposes for which agricultural exhibitions ere supposed to be establish Indeed it might be claimed with perfect justice that the revjnue derived from the horseraces directly from entrance fees and indirectly from the in creased gate money more than pay for the jurses offered and enable erch agricultural society to offer more generous premiums than could otherwise ha done. At any rate the iriaU of speed are a part of the programme at all such gatherings. And they ought to be.

The thoroughbred horse may be something of an exotic in this country, but certainly the demand for thoroughbreds is rapidly increasing, not only for racing purposes but for saddle horses, the in-, traduction of fox hunting on Long Island and in the Eastern States having given a great impetus to the breeding of naif breds for the saddle. As for the trotter there is not and never has been any doubt that its improvement is a matter of vital importance to the farmer. The very qualities which the training of racing trotters tends to bring out arc, when modified by croseing with the heavier farm stock, calculated to improve that stock for farm purposes. Medium or slightly more than medium size, a brisk nervous walk, fair trotting 6feed when required aud a good ap- pearance are the points that a farmer usually wants in his horses. The ability to travel at a fair speed, whether walking or trotting, is cf especial value to the fanners who send produce to the city by wagon, and scarcely less so to the farmers, all whose work, whet jer plowing, harrowing, reaping or moving crop3, depends so directly upon the gait of tUe farm team.

A logy animal may do for a city truckman but is hardly worth his keep on the average farm. But important as are the speed trials and special premiums for various classes of horses, these are not the only functions of a good fair, and the managers both in Queens and Suffolk Counties have fully recognized that fact, and have provided very generously for all other departments of farm and domestic work. The opportunity afforded by these annual gather-rigs to compare notes and exchange views is of quite as much value to the farmers as the premiums for which they compete, and ws hope that a larger number than ever before on Long Island will avail themselves of the privilege. TUB GLENS' MITj. -There was a sharp debate in the Georgia Senate yesterday over the Glenn 'bill, which had already passed the House.

It will be remembered that the bill makes it "a penal offense to teach white and black children in the same building and authorises the imprisonment of any one breaking the law, or his sentence to hard labor id the chain gang. This iniquitous measure slipped unchallenged through the JXouae, but the publicity grren to" liSed a great deal of indignation at the North so that Democratic politicians sent down urgent appeals to kill the bill. Accordingly a substitute was framed, which simply prof ided that the offense of teaching white and black children together should be punished by the withdrawal of State funds from the. erring school. This substitute was brougbtup in'the Senate yesterday and, after a fierce debate in which the llev.

the treasurer of the Slater fnad, was described as an ecclesiastical bully aud a salaried traducer of his was passed instead of the original bill by a vote of 25 to 13. This kills the whole legislation, for the House will not accept the substitute. Thus we see that, even after an explicit warning from Northern Democrats, half the represcntatives of the Georgia Democracy ere IX ON THE DOLLAR. Street, E.

This slackening of the soul'sspeed was iuteuded by tbe God of their fathers to give ail time to review their lives, to weigh their deeds, to improve and to repeut. But, he contiuued, woe to the one whose shoulder the invisible u-ductor of tbe train laid his Icy hands upon to him wbo bad neglected his opportunity to make amends for the evils uncorrected. To him comes worse than condemnation of self in the scpreme time of his agony.

The presence of the conductor as he moved silently but swiftiy along, gathering up the tickets of those who were under his care, paled their cheeks, robbed their eyes of the lustre and beauty of vitality, aud as paUied and helpless they would fall from their places of apparent security iuto the whirlpool of eternal darkness.
