The courtroom at this place yester-

for the purpose of hearing speeches
from Asbury Dawson and W. W. Bush.

LEGISLATURE, and also to listen to an ad-
dress from Hon. j. s. Golladay, our
Representative in Congress. Mr.. Col
ladav was in fine trim for the occasion,
and, without any clrcumlocution what
ever, came squarely out in favor of re-
pudiation, and announced that 1t was
the only solution of our financial diff
culties. He spoke at length of the two
political parties in the country, but said
that the doctrine of reputation was
"no part of the Democratic creed, but
oriDinates in common sense, and is
older than Democracy" Many instan-
ces we're cited to show that the history
OF all debts created for war purposes
had resulted in repudiation. He charg-
ed that the Radical party, while 1t in
sisted on the sacredness OF the public
faith to liquidRte its obligations thus
contracted, had virtually set the exam
pie OF repudiation by refusing to pay
for HpriVAte property taken without
lust compensation" as we'll as the pass.

desired that the entire public debt
should be paid in good faith or not paid
at all. In the course of the address Mr..
GolIaday exhibited a piece of continen.
tai scrip issued by the then colony of
Virginia, in 1881, for 81, 800. which was
repudiated by the Assembly after it be-
came State, and a restoration of peace
had been declared between the colonies
and Great Britain. His speech was
listened to throughout with marked at
tention, and was frequently greeted
with rounds Of applause.

tIon.
GETTYSBURG, July l.
The town is thrOnged and many were
obliged to stay in the streets all night.
MANY strangers to-day visited the bat
tie field. The procession marched to the
cemetery at ten o'clock under a militia
ry escort. Gen. Weed. Gov. Morton,
Rev. II. w. Beecher, Mayor Wells Nc
Curdy and many others who were to
participate In the celebration, were
present.
The proceedings at the monument,
around which was stationed the militia
ry, was commenced by singing hymn
by the Baltimore Orion Society; Rev.
MIR, Beecher then made the opening
prayer. The hymn "Tis holy ground"
written by B. B. French, of Washing
ton, for tae dedication of the cemetery
of 1868, was sung by the choir. Presi-
dent Wills then announced that Gener-
al Meade would address the audience
preparatory to unveiling the mOnu-
ment, which would take place during
the firing a salute of one gun for each
State having dead buried within its
limits, Gen. Meade then took his po.
sition on the platform and was received
with cheers. at the conclusion of Gen.
Neade's speech, passage was cleared
in front of the platform, leading to the
haze the monument, and assisted by
Secretary of War Rawlins, the veil
that shielded the front Ofthe monument
was dropped, and the first full view OF
all It's beauties was met with enthusiasts
tic applause of the thousands who were
looking on at this interesting moment,
mingled with the music of the band,
aud the firing of the salute. President
Wills then announced that Hon. o. P.
Morton, Senator from Indiana, would
pronounce the oratlon.
After the Grafton the choir sung
"How sleep the brave who sink TO
rest" with the addition of two stanzas
composed by w. w. Carter, OF Balti-
more. Then followed a poem written
for the occasion by Bayard Taylor, but
evidently not intended for general cir
culation, as the author refused to sup
ply the Associated Press with correct
copy. The choir sung the hymn "Rest
hero, rest" and Rev. John Schumak
then pronounced the benediction. The
choir then sung the hymn :tAmerica,"
with which the ceremonies concluded.
The number of persons present during
the ceremonies are vRriously estimated
at 6. 600 to 10000, who dispersed at the
conclusion of the programme. The
town is slowly being cleared of the
visitors by the starting of regular and
special tTain8s

THE Toledo Blade says that, on Mon

woman were seen passing along Oak
street, in that city-the man having a

brandishing hoop iron over his head.
On the arrival OF the couple ut their

THE following auecdote Is told in
Herr Hesekiel's life of Bismarck, the
second volume OF which has just APP
peared at Leipsic: Hearing guest in
a tavern speak insultingly OF a member
OF the royal family, Bismarck sprang
to his feet, and exclaimed, "Leave the
roomI II you have not left it before
this glass is empty will break it over
your head!" or course there was an
uproar. All the guests rose and began
shouting and gesticulating. But Bis
marck calmly emptied his glass, and
then smashed it on the Offenders head
with such hearty will that the glass
was in shivers, and the head was left
bowling. A deep silence followed. in
the midst OF which the voice of Bis.
marok was heard asking unconcerned-
ly, "Waiter, what does the broken
glass cost?" General applause drowned
the answer.

WAsu1NaroN, D. c., June 8

WAsH1NGToN, u. c., June 80.
The balance sheet for the fiscal year
ending to-day is not yet made up, but
the receipts have been ascertained at
the Treasury Department, and the
showing is exceedingly good and better
than the most sanguine estimates of
last season. The customs estimate of
Secretary McCulloch last December
were one hundred aud seventy four
millions; OF Special C0mmissioner
Wells last January. one hundred and
seventy millions, Tue actual receipts
up 70 this evening are one hundred and
seVenty-nire million eight hundred
thousand. The estimated receipts
when all now on the way are credited
Is one hundred and elghty-two mil
lions, which Is twelve millions above
Wells'S estimate and eight millious
above MCCulloch's. The Internal Rev
enue estimate OF MCCullOch was one
hundred and forty millions; Rollius,
one hundred and forty-tive millions;
Wells, one hundred and fifty five mill
lions. The actual receipts to this
evening are one hundred and fifty
eight millions two hundred and
eighty. seven thousand dollars. 1t
is estimated when all now on
the way are credited, :they will be ono
hundred and sixty mllIlonSI Wnlch Is
five millions above Wells's! estimnte,
fifteen above Rollins's and twenty mil
lions above McCulloch's. The receipts
from all miscellaneous sources are not
vet known, but the figures will not be
far from thirty-one millions, giving the
aggregate governmental receipts for the
wear at about three hundred and seven
Iy-three millions. which is sixteen mil
lions above Wells's estimate. and thir-
ty-two millions above McCulloch.
The expenditures for the year cannot
be ascertained for two or three weeks.
Mr.. Wells estimated that the receipts
would be thirty millions greater than
the expenditures; Mr.. McCulloch's
twenty millions, while in fact the ball
ance on the right side will be at least
forty millions, and may reach fifty
millions. II may be worth adding as q
pleasant reminiscence of the days that
are no more, Delmar, the brilliant fnan-
cixl man of the Democracy, in the last
campaign, assured the country in his
letter of September, that the internal
revenue would yield but one hundred
and twenty-five millions this year, and
customs bnt one hundred and fifty mill
lions, while the balance on the wrong
side of the book at this date would be
one hundred and fifty-f four millions.
