Some idea of the terrible havoc of
war may be gained from the follow
ing figures: In the desperate en-
counter Mt Chickamauga, Rosencranz
lost 16, 951 men, and Mt Murfresboro,
-, 2,OS5; at Pittsburg Landing, Grant
lost 13, 573; at Vicksburg, 9,S75, and
at Mission Ridge, 1000; at Gaines
Mill, Peach Orchard, Savage Station,
Glendale, White Oak Swamp and
Malvern Hill, Mcclellan lost $1,000,
and at Antietam, 11,426; Hooker lost
in his campaign in the Wilderness,
20, 600; Burnside at fredericksburg,
$4,000; and Grants united loss, from
the time of crossing the Rapidan,
in his final campaign, to the surren-
der of Lee, are computed at 10000.

No BLACK MANS PARTY
New York 1ri5nne, OF Friday, says:
Those men in the South who are
working to establish black mans
party are the enemies of this princi-
pie of equality, and if they carry out
their plans, they will strike Republi-
canism blow far heavier than the
Democracy can deal. They will go
far to undo the grand reform of which
the war was the instrument. In Vir-
ginin, it is feared that the State Re-
publican Convention, to be held
August J., will be the occasion of n
division in the Republican ranks and
the creation of rival parties, black
and white. In Missouri, also, there
are adventures who urge the colored
men to demand representation on the
Presidential ticket, and in case it is
refused, to form a separate organiza-
ton. We do not believe these efforts
will be sustained by the colored men,
for they surely know the fatal results
of such on unprincipled policy.

1t has been estimated that the num-
Der of Catholics in the United States,
in 1880, was 100000; in 1910 it was
06O, 900, and 100000 in 1860. Ac-
cording to these estimates, the Cath
olics double in number every ten
years, and in 1870 we shall have
eight or nine millions, or nearly one
fifth of the whole population.

TIE EVENING rxERcIsEs.


AT an early hour in the evening
the new Hall Of tho order recently
fitted up for the purpose in the Ma
tional Exchange Building, was dense.
,y crowded with Ladies and gentle--'
men who had assembled to witness
the ceremonies Of dedication; thoy
we're very interesting, instructive and
appropriate. These ceremonies had
the virtue Of brevity, aud at the con
clusion, the evening not being far ad-
vaneed, the Noble Grand, d. G. Tu-
nison arose and mentioning that fact,
suggested that addresses be made by
somo Of the members. Mr. j. W.
Cook being called out arose and made
short speech. He said that he laid
no claim to the art Of speaking, but
ever since his connection with the
order which extended over nineteen
years, ho had been worker, Having
been thoroughly imbued with con-
vietion of the truth aud beauty of
Odd Fellowship, and the pureness OF
the principles iuculca,ed 10 the Lodge
room, he had grown TO love and re-

upheld with earnostness and zeal
To this end, he had worked, aud while
il was in his hands to help aud for
ward the order he would continue to
be worker,
Col. j. Al. Stevens was called up
Col. Stevens also, disclaimed being a
speaker, aud candidly admitted that
the necessity of making public dis
play ofhis unpractieed oratory, before
an assembly of expcctant ladies', tried
his nerves to a greater degree than
bad other and moro dangerous emer-
