ga. In Lillia's song in Tennyson's Princes
is the following:
.Thy voice is heard through rolling drums
That beat TO battle where he stands;
THY face across his fancy comes,
And gives the battle to his lands:
moment. while the trumpets blow,
He sees his brood about thy knee,
The next, like fire he meets the foe,
And strikes him dead for thine and thee

The LAWYER AND THE Ducks. There is
not more common offense against the laws
of common courtesy 1--WE might say, often.
times deceney) than is practiced by certain
class of lawyers nowadays in the examina-
ton of witnesses upon the stand. Now and
then, however, an impertinent lawyer ''gets
it back in such a way that he is fain to call
the next witness. OF such was the following
not as yet put down in the books, but well
worthy of being transferred to ''the papers. +"
At late term of the Court of Sessions a
man was brought up by farmer, accused OF
stealing some ducks.
''How do you know that the ducks are
your ducks? asked the defendants coun-
sci.
"0h, would know them aHyaohere," re-
piled the farmer; and he went on to prescribe
their peculiarities.
"Why," said the prisoner scounsel, ''these
ducks can't be such rare breed; | have some
very much Ike them in my own yard"
That not unlikely, SIR, replied the farm
er; they are. not the only ducks have had
stolen lately!"
"Call the next witness.

Teachers Convention.

Convention of the Teachers connected
with Bryant, Stratton & Co.'s Commercial
Colleges is to be held at Chicago on the 18th
of July next. These colleges are located in
thirty of the leading cities in the United
States and Canada, each of which has princi
pal and an efficient corps of teachers. These
colleges afford excellent facilities for acquiring
good business education. There has been
one in this city for several years, in which
large number OF our best counting room
clerks have been educated. This college is
under the managem mt of Mr.. L. A. Gray, A.
M, who has not only secured the confidence
and respect of his pupils, but of our citizens
generally who have formed his acquaintance.
Mr.. Gray is delegate to the Chicago Con
vention, for which city he will leave on Mon
day or Tuesday next. This college is in
Clapp's Block, Congress Street. where 1t oc-
cupies commodious suite OF rooms every
way adapted to its use. The studies and ex-
ercises are of the most pleasing and useful
character, embracing business correspond
ence with other colleges, that tends, not only
to perfect the students in correct business
forms, but extends business acquaintance that
is often of the greatest value. Mr. Gray, OF
bis return from Chicago, will add several new
features to the institution, rendering it one O.
the best of the chain.

Portland Driving Park.

1t will be recollected by our readers that a
petition has been presented to our city au-
thorities for lease of City field, or ''the War
rem Lot" containing some twenty acres to be
prepared for Driving Park. This petition is
endorsed by many Of our most respectable and
wealthy citizens who feel deep interest in
the growth OF our city. Yesterday Mr.. j. p
Shaw gave us a ride TO the grounds. He feels
lively interest in the premises, and proposes
with the help of others, to carry out the enter
prise, provided the city will lease the grounds,
which the authorities will probably do, as
those interested propose to give the city quito
as much rent as is now derived from the land.
That the location is an admirable one, no one
can doubt who has surveyed the grounds. 1t
is now beautiful spot, and when worked into
driving park, it will become place of much
resort. There is a fine chance to make half
mile track, and the land and water prospects
are exceedingly beautiful and picturesque.
When these grounds are properly prepared. as
they will be II the lease is granted, it will af-
ford splendid place for the trial of the speed
OF horses, for pleasure drives, for agricultural
shows and military displays. Maine has not
been slow in furnishing fast horses, and Cana
da is not far of, and horses from that region
would soon find their way here. We have no
doubt that this Park would add much to the
growth and prosperity of our city. There is a
large class of the community who always have,
and always will, feel great interest 10 horses
and tits well that itso. The horse is one Of our
noblest animals, and the Improvement of the
breed Is laudable ambition Portland has
grown large enough to demand such park
as is here contemplated. Let us have the
park, and the city win rise to that elevation to
which her natural position entities her. This
park is not intended as public resort for
horsejockeys and rowdies; but as a place
where gentlemen will Glove to congregate'
and enjoy rational sport We again say, let
us have the park. We could say much more
in favor of this enterprise, but it is in good
hands, and we nave no doubt we shall soon
have pleasure ground of which the people Of
Portland will have reason to be proud.
We advise those who have leisure, to ride
out and examine the grounds for themselves
and sure we are they will become satisfied
that the spot is well chosen.

The acting Moderator, Rev. Mr.. Garland, oi
Bethel, responded to the address of DR.. Car
ruthers, in feeling manner.
The congregation then sang the hymn
"Blest be the tie that binds"
After benediction by Rev. Nathan Douglass,
OF Penobscot Conference, the General Confer
ence adjourned sine die.
In the evening, an address was delivered in
the Second Parish Church by Rev. Mr.. Monod
of Paris, in behalf of the Evangelical Society
France, and a collection was taken up in
aid of the funds of that Society.
This has been pronounced the most inter-
esting and successful meeting the Conference
has ever enjoyed. The attendance of dele
gates from foreign bodies was much larger
than ever before. There was no let up in the
business or interest Of the meeting, for which
great credit is due to the Committee of Ar
rangements and the prompt manner of the
Moderator.
As to the attendance, we can only say the
house was not large enough to contain all who
wished to enter and hear.

The farewell order OF Gen. Meade is pub
lished. 1t is as follows:
HEADQUARTERS, ARMY OF PoToMAc,3
y June %, 1865.
Soldiers This day two years ago, / as
sumed command under orders of the Presi-
dent of the United States. To day, by virtue
OF our authorities, this army ceases to exist,
and have to announce my transfer TO other
duties, and my separation from you. 1t is
unnecessary to enumerate all that occurred in
these two eventful years; from the great and
decisive battle OF Gettysburg, the turning
point Of the war, to the surrender of the Army
OF Northern Virginia, at Appomattox Court
House. Suffice it to say, that history will do
you justice. A grateful country will honor
the living, cherish aud support the disabled,
and sincerely mourn the dead.
In parting from you, your Commanding Gen
eral will ever bear in memory your noble de-
votion to your country, your patience and
eheerfulness under all the privations and sacri-
fees you have been called on to endure.
Soldiers having accomplished with zeal the
work set before us, having vindicated the hon
or and integrity of our government and flag,
let us return thanks to Almighty God for his
blessing, in giving us victory and peace, and
let us earnestly pray for strength and light to
discharge our duties as citizens as we have
endeavored to discharge them assolders.
