The Busy Bees..A Brief statement
OF the Organization. Object. 40.


MEsaRs. EDrToRs- As there were no
representatives Of the press present and no
recognition Of the efforts Of the "Busy
Bees at their late Festival, permit me 10
give you q sketch Of the motives that in.
duced them TO form their organization.
The former Superintendent OF st. Mat
thew's Sunday School, in his lAudable Ell
lorts TO fit up and furnish the school room
comfortably, contracted debt, intending
by festival and other means TO liQuidate
It Death overlook him before his inten.
tions were realized, and his successor made
no effort to fulfill the obligations he had
contracted. So things remained until
these nine little girls, attached 10 the
school, organized Society and determin.
ed that the promises Of their beloved Su.
perintendent should be redeemed TO the
letter, and they have nobly succeeded in
this their first Festival to realize and pay
over more than one.half Of the debt. Nor
Is this all. They win continue their So.
ciety and work until the last cent Is paid.
The efforts Of these nine little Busy Bees"
should tinge with shame the cheeks of
every communicate, not only Of ST. Mat,
thew's, but OF every other Church in the
city that permits debts honestly contrac.
ted for the benefit Of the Church to remain
unpaid for any length Of time. Don't you

numbers and at an early hour, yesterday

they paraded through several Of the prin,

itprOceeded along the route, was very
line, with handsome flags and banners
borne alolt at short intervals, and splen.
did band at the head Of the procession,
dtscoursing most excellent music. Large
numbers were attracted to the windows
and pavement to see the long line Of

ARE WE FREE PEOPLE 2-So we flatter ourselves, and boast of our liberty, but no community ever submitted to greater des- pot than do we. Our overeign-invisible though she may be-rules us with an iron rod; and grumble though we may, as she leads we follow. No matter how indepen- dent we may be. we must comply in cer- tain degree with her dictates for there is a kind of innate modesty that rebels against our attracting the gaze of every passer-by, in being totally different from everybody else; for instance, if the style is 'bouffant, it is utterly impossible to go absolutely and equivocally flat We can modify, and modify only. Much has been written, both we'll and wisely, upon the pernicious habit of wearing shoes too short, but until Dame Fashion steps into shoe of the requisite length, all is written in vain. Fools and philosophers, wise men and maidens, adults and children, must wear the shoe fitted to her fantastic toe.' Artisans and merchants obey her nod and although favored few can have shoes made to order, the mass of the people are compelled to wear what is in the market; so until she magnanimously inaugurates something combining both taste and comfort, suffering humanity must follow in her train, the victims of the high heeled toe -tortures now in vogue.

fERu.-July closed ''hotly" in the little republic of Peru. During the latter days of last month the Minister of War made a coup d'etar, threw President Balta into jail, got the army on his side, and inaugurated anarchy. Pardo, the President elect, sud. denly won the soldiers to his side, and Min ister of War Gutierrez was deserted. Cal lao was the scene of dreadful carnage. A brother of Gutierrez was executed on the 27th, and to avenge his death, President Balta was shot in prison. Gutierrez was finally captured and hung at Lima with his two brothers. President elect Pardo re- turned and was warmly acclaimed by the people and the repentant soldiery. The dictatorship of Gutierrez lasted four days. The populace were so frantic with rage against the dead Gutierrez brothers that they took their naked bodies from the lamp posts to which they had been hanged, car ried them to the cathedral tower, dashed them to the pavement and then burned them. As Balta's presidential term wonld have expired Aug. ?, Pardo assumed the government at once.

sand and one things to think of outside of the cars to keep all straight. The engine could not draw the train, and to convey his orders from one end to the other ct that place, where the embsnkments on either side were such that it was almost impossi- be to travel from one end to the other of the train, quarter of mile long, it could not be otherwise than slow work, but was it not sGfely done, with no accident to any one of the vast numbers under his care. At this excursion, people turned out in greater number than anybody had expected, and with thls tremendous load of human freight, Conductor Eggleston seemed to fully realize his responsibility, and needing not the minor complaints of some, he gave himself exclusively to the all important duty to get them home as soon as he could, and do it without accident. Who among the number would be willing to trade the unpleasant features of their home ward trip, for broken arm or smashed train for one man to manage, but we were all brought home safely, and that feature alone covers multitude of sins. The rail. road company and all concerned meant tc haoe ecerythimg 90 exactly right, this we know by the preparations for the occasion every conductor on the road having given him written instructions for the manage mert of their trains during the day, and all else done thought necessary to secure sue cess in every feature, and now who will scold? None we think, as all we have seer since, pronounce themselves satisfied; had good time and glad they went.

A RhimOceros On the Rampage.

CHICAGO, August 16.-A letter from Red Bird, small town in Monroe County, Ill.,, gives thrilling account of the escape from it's keepers of the rhinoceros belonging to Warner 6 Co.'S menagerie and circus on the occasion of its being brought into the ring for the first time. The snowman had pre- pared the animal for the exhibition in the ring by attaching to ring in its nose two strong wire ropes, and twentY-four men were deemed sufficient to control the beast, which submitted quietly to being led from the cage, but on entering the arena suddenly threw up its head, and, plunging madly to the right and left broke loose from the men and dashed forward through the tents. Its first victim was John Gillem, a canvass- man, who was knocked down, and, the beast tramped upon his breast, he was killed instantly. It next ran It's nose against Martin Ready, another CANVASS man, striking him in the stomach and rip ping out his bowels, killing him. It next which by this time were cleared by the frightened spectators, and knocked down nearly all of the seats on one side of the tent, dislocating the shoulder of one of the employees, and breaking the arm of spec tator. It then ran into the managers tent and upset MT. Forepaugh's den of perform ing animals, after which it struck the cen Ire pole with its head, bringing i. down with a crash upon tho cages of the tiger and leopard, but not breaking them so as to allow the animals to escape. Dashing into the museum tent it smashed all the curiosities, stampeding all the people in the vicinity, and rushed out through the side of the canvass into the street, finally bringing up in vacant house, the door of which stood open, and here the men succeeded in capturing the animal and getting it into a cage. The damage to the show was about 5000.
