REMARKABLE EEPIclENcY IN A BLIND MAN
/ "A correspondent writing from Portland,
Me-, of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton Convention, says:
! ''The convention was promptly called to
order by A Thane Miller, Of Cincinnati,
who for three successive years has been cleo
ted to preside over the assemblies at Albany,
Montreal and Detroit. and whose admirable
executive ability is all the more remarkable
in view of the fact that he is totally blind. No
onewould for moment suspect that MIR. Mil
Ter was unable to see the faces Of his willing
subjects, SO marvellous is his aptitude, and
so promptly does he recognize and announce
the fast following speakers whose "Mr.
President has ever before met his ear
Relying upon his nice sense OF hearing, he
names the speaker and accords him the floor
as confidently, and generally as correctly,
as though he saw the man distinctly before
him, Moreover, his genial manner. his easy
dignity and his genuine piety, added to all
necessary decision Of character, make him so
precisely what is wanted in the chair on
such an occasion that his peremptory refusal
to be candidate for reelection this time
was felt by many TO be real misfortune"
TnE CHINESE LABOR CONVENTION. HEM
phis. July 1.-THE Convention has organ
lied Chinese Immigration Society, with a
capital Of 81 .0U0, 900, which may be doub-
led. The sum of SAC. 900 was subscribed
on the spot in shares of $100 each. The
Convention adjourned sine die. after order

other year has passed since authority was
gwen by Congress to sell the property for the
benefit of college in West Virginia under
the special protection of Senator Wiley
Another summer is fast passing away, and
TINS valuable property is still useless. What
ueiays the sale OF it is unexplained. Public
OPINION is coming to the conclusion that the
authorities have no confidence in the vafidi-
10 OF the title, if property is to be devoted to
any other purpose than that for which it was
purchased BY President Washington-an
armory. The deed from the heirs of old

purtenances are conveyed to George Wash.
lngton, for the use Of the United States and
no other. 1t Is true an armory is not speci-
hcally mentioned in the deed and Attorney
General Stanbery has declared the title suf-
hcient, but high legal authority, on the
other hand, is as firm III the conviction that
tue title is not clear. Certainly the delay in
dlcates doubt on the part of the government,
and 1t is quite probable that some of the heirs
VIII lhterpose at proper time. One is GER
'aln-therc are provisions of Mr.. Harper's
Will which have not been carried out, such
as the erection ola free church and the will
ing OF cemetery. These are membranes
which prevented the Wagers from giving a
perfect title, and either they or the govern
ment must perform these stipulations, which
appear to have been made for the benefit of
the public. and in regard to which we un-
derstand the people OF the neighborhood are
inclined to take some action to enforce their
claim IN STANDARDIZATION Free Press
JUDGE BOWS PoslrloN The following
note has been handed to us for publication,
by the gentlemen to whom it was addressed
RiohMoSp, July 10th, 1869.
My dear: In answer to yours of day
before yesterday, beg to say that | know
the newspapers have done Judge Bond great
Injustice. In several conversations with him
since the election he has declared that the
election of the 9th Of July was as fair and
orderly as any that had ever taken place in
this or any other State, and that he would
have nothing to do with the effort which was
being made by interested persons to have
the election set aside by Congress and that
if Walker will carry out the principles advo-
Gated by him in his speech at the Exchange
Hotel, of July 9Th. he (Judge Bond) would |
not regret the result of the election In re-
gard to the test-oath fol the members Of the |
Legislature, he said he had not read the law
upon the subject, and therefore hsel no opin-
ion to express in the matter,
Judge Bond has taken this, bold and hon.
CRADLE stand against he. wishes of some of
his political friends, and it is but right that |
the public should be Informed Of his position. |
Sincerely. your friend.
