EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL Permit me to
say with reference to the note which appeared
in your columns this morning from the pen of
Rev. W. A. Drew concerning our controversy
on the Pilgrim Fathers in the Banner, that
the editor of the Banner is as well aware as
Mr.. Drew can be of the fact that the '.Massa-
chusetts colony was distinct from the Plymouth
Pilgrims" that I frequently mentioned this
fact during the controversy, and reiterated
it in the very article complained of by Mr..
Drew saying that l had never intimated thas
they were the same people, and therefore did
not "confound' thetw in said article nor did
l go tout of the Plymouth colony" for lack of
cases of persecution, but simply mentioned
the barbarous laws and cruel usrge of the
Massachusetts, colony toward the Quakers,
first, because they occurred first in history
and to show that they rere acts of persecution
in said colony. l then showed that the Ply
mouth Pilgrims adopted the laws of the Massa-
chusetts colony Gall but the penalty of death)
utterly forbidding all people commonly called
Quakers, or other notorious Heretiques,'
from entering the precints of their domain on
pain of imprisonment, scourging with whips,
having their ears cropped or tongues bored with
a red hot iron; that they also made laws forbid
ding their own people from harboring these
Quakers or giving them bit of bread or
meat to prevent starvation, or a nights lodg-
ing in dead of winter to save them from per-
ishing, or to attend their meetings or in any
possible way favor them, on pain themselves
of being fined, imprisoned or whipped and
more than this, that they the said Plymouth
Pilgrims, did imprison several Quakers, and
publicly whip two and Danish four from the
colony that they dismissed General Cudworth
and Thomas Hatherly from being magistrates
because they had entertained Quakers that
record of the punishment of Quakers for their
boldness of speech and the holding of meetings
is found on nineteen different pages of the
Plymouth Records and accounts of trial ofper-
sons required to leave the Government because
they belonged to the class of "Heretiques
commonly called Quakers," on nine other
pages; and that all this was done within the
limits of the Plymouth colony by the Pill
grims, and before the year 1860. Others can
Judge as we'll as whether this was perseeu-
| tion G. w. q.

The President has nominated Horatio C.

Of the interior.
Mr.. Reyels is not coming back to the Sem

A meeting Of the Democratic chiefs was
held in Cincinnati few days ago, and it was

Gen. Clarke, ex- Representative from Tex

restored law and order by the employment of

they commit outrages.
In the Senate Friday, Mr.. Sumner again
offered his resolutions. Mr.. Conkling raised
the point of order that it could not be intro
duced under the Anthony rule. After some
ucDate the ulOtlOn was tabled. Mr. sumner
said that he intended to make a speech on the
resolutions, which he asked to have printed.
Several Senators expressed their Willingness
to allow of the consideration of the resou-
tons and to hear his speech, and Mr.. Conk-
ling said if the Senator had asked unanimous
consent he would have been one of the first
to grant it. Mr. Sumner thereupon asked
the unanimous consent of the Senate, which
was granted. The deficiency bill was taken
up and the bill for the reissue of worn out
currency was added as an amendment.
Speaker Blaine, it is conceded on all sides,
has acted with perfect impartiality in his ap-

Messrs. Shelabarger of Ohio, Butler of Mas
sachusetts, Scofeld of Pennsylvania, Dawes
Massachusetts, Blair of Michigan, Thomas of
North Carolina, Kerr of Indiana, Morgan of
Ohio, and Whittehorn of Tennessee. The
first two and Mr.. Thomas represent the ex-
treme views of the Republican party in the
House. Messrs. Scofeld, Dawes and Blair
have exhibited more moderation, and have
been anxious to adjourn; so they will not be
hasty to recommend legislation. The last
three are the best representatives of the
Democratic element in the House.

gentleman just from New Sweden,
Areostook county, informs us that the Swedes
are contented and happy, and are looking
forward hopefully to the planting season.
Plans for new stable have been drawn, and
the building will be erected the ensuing sea-
son. Each settler will put down to grass one
acre Of land. The usual process after clear
ing, is to SOW wheat, and the next year to put
in crop Of oats with the grass seed; but the
Swedes are DESTROYS of keeping stock, and
must have grass for their use. The resident
agent in Sweden writes to the commissioner
in this country that he is overrun with bust
ness in answering inquiries of those who are
DESTROYS of emigrating to Maine. The space
used by the agent in the local newspaper,
printed in the Scandinavian dialect, is prov
ing q judicious investment, and provoking
serious inquiry on the part of those who are
not satisfied with their condition in Sweden.
We may expect to see the immigrants pouring
into Aroostook about the middle of May in
large numbers. Meanwhile surveyors will be
employed to lay out the lots and roads. Care
will be taken that each lot shall face the pub
lie highway. Numerous inquiries have been
received by the agent in Aroostook from
Swedes residing in New York State.

Disastrous Fire!
The Amusement Hall at the National
Military Asylum Destroyed!
LOSS 100000.

The Amusement Hall, a building recently
erected at the National Military Asylum in
this city, was totally destroyed by fire Satur-
day morning. The upper story of the building
was hall upon three sides, capable of seat
ing 500 persons. This hall was used for q
chapel on the Sabbath and for all other pub
lie purposes. 1t was arranged with a con-
venient stage and fine scenery for theatrical
entertainments. The lower part or basement
story was devoted to bowling alleys and bill
lard tables. A paint shop also occupied that
part directly under the stage having windows
only upon the back side. The fire is believed
have originated in the paint room. The divi-
sion of Sons of Temperance opened their
meeting in the Hall about seven o'clock Fri
day evening, but finding the temperature too
low for comfort soon adjourned
About the time the meeting was called to
order, member remarked, II think smell
fire., and search was Immediately made for it,
but none was discovered. After the meeting
closed another went below and looked about,
but there were no indications of fire, the build
ing like all the others being warmed by steam
and lighted with gasylene.
The windows to this room being all on the
back side the fire was not discovered by the
Waterman until it made its way through the
floor, about two o'clock, and illuminated the
audience room above. As soon as it burst
through the stage floor it instantly flashed
through the scenery and stage machinery and
soon the roof and whole building seemed to be
enveloped in flames.
The steam fire engine was soon brought
upon the scene of action and the wheels be-
gan to revolve and the sparks to fly. but not
drop of that element especially needed on
such occasions made its appearance through
its pipes.
1t would, however, have been impossible,
the flames had made such progress when dis.
covered, to have saved any part of the build
ing had the engine done what was expected of
it.
This building stood about 40 feet west of
one of the main barracks, and the wind being
westerly at times it seemed impossible to pre-
vent the dormitories occupied by the soldiers
from taking fire. But the men worked like
heroes and fought for their home against the
invading element with something of that same
determination with which they repealed the
threatening rebel hordes, and kept them at
bay.
This building, unique in design and perfect
in construction, was well adapted to the wants
of the institution, and the loss of it will be Sc
verely felt by the boys.
The billiard room and bowling alleys af-
forded these crippled braves much pleasant
exercise and innocent recreation. The Hall
besides being pleasant place for the regular
chapel exercises, was often enlivened by con-
certs, debates, plays, &C., affording the mutt
lated defenders of the 'old flag" not little
instruction and pleasant amusement.
The building was constructed of brick, and
cost $4,000. Its contents were valued at
$4,000 more. No insurance on any of the
property.

Mr.. KINGDOM CLIFFORD recently said In a

quite possible for conventional rules of action

ton has been before the public several years,
has been tried tested and approved by the lead

there are fossils in the profession, who persist
in prescribing the old palliative remedies of
their grandsires in such disease as Consump-
ton, Bronchitis and others indicative of pros
tration of the vital powers, and pronounce
them incurable. Progress in medical science
is indeed impossible where conventional hab-
