GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC.-Orders
have been issued from the Headquarters of
the Grand Army giving detailed account OF
the proceedings OF the recent national en-
campment held in New York city. The ses-
sion was OF coUse secret, and outsiders can
not know what mysterious rites and ceremo-
MES were performed or what mischief was
| plotted. A design for new badge was adopt
! ed which will be a very democratic affair."
The badges are TO be made of bronze melted
down from cannon captured from the enemy

Association among the members of the order
was deliberately discussed and warmly advo-

with furious attack from an organized
body of Life Insurance Agents, who, while
they declare the scheme impracticable and
nonsensical still display more anxiety about
the matter han would be supposed if their
denunciations are to be believed 1t was fl
naily voted to refer the matter to committee

This being special meeting no formal re-
ports OF officers were submitted, but from the
statements made by the delegates it appears
that the order is in a fourshing condition
and is rapidly increasing.

The NEW FLOYD IREsoN.-e Fluid Oier-
son." who 81 for his hard heart was tarred
and feathered and carried in a cart bv the
mnlon OMorble'ed," for his inbumanity has
a counterpart in the person of Capt. Wash
ington of the Submarine, who passed the
Stonewall in his boat at the time she was
burning, without stopping to render any as
slstance. His course created a great deal of
indignation; and in his own vindicatiop he
has prepared a statement which will be pub
lIshed, backed up by one from his pilot, and
another pilot, passenger on board, in which
he makes labored effort to exculpate him
self nom blame because the wind was very
high, the Submarine heavily laden and difficult
TO handle and he could only have approach
ed the Stonewall at the imminent risk of de-
siroying his own boat, and periling the lives
of his crew. He lays much stress upon bis
reputation as humane man, which will have
but little weight with the public however, in
view of the fact that he passed burning
steamer While scores of men, women and chill
dren were struggling for life, terror stricken,
and nearly frozen in the cold and angry wa
tiers OF the Mississippi, without so much as
giving hail to ascertain if assistance was
headed. or sending his yawl out to learn the
extent or result of the friehtful disaster.
