out of confusion.
Certain exhibitors arose and made COM
plants that their places had been assign
cd them, and that they had begun arrang-
ing their goods, but that now they are
told that all was but temporary, and if
so, they might be removed from their
places, and it was little use to continue
working. Others had sorrowful stories to
tell of delays in obtaining papers, and
length of time in getting goods through
tho Commission,
At last a gentleman arose to speak. lie
was unknown TO the chairman. who asked
his name. "My name, said the gentle
man, in clear, full voice, "is Gen. Van
Buren,a name not very popular at present.
He then stated that It seemed somewhat
strange to him, that when complimea is
were being paid to Gen. Schwarz and Gen.
Cannon, that not one crumb should fall
into his basket, and no word be spoken
concerning his labors, which had been
faithfully given during the last ten or
twelve months to enable America to take
an honorable, even glorious position at this
Worlds Fair. He had taken the place at
the earnest solicitations of President
Grant, and his sole aim had been to ag.
grandize America and not himself. He
then said in kind and manly way, that
he was there 20 offer his aid, his informa-
ton and all papers in his possession to
help in carrying out what he had begun,
and he hoped and believed that America
would yet hold no inferior position here
among the assembled nations.
After he seated himself, Gen. Cannon
arose and expressed his opinion that honor
was due to Gen. Van Buren, for valuable
services rendered his country in this Ex-
position. Van Buren again arose and said
with emotion: "These are the first words
of encouragement that have heard from
an American on foreign shore, the first
kind EXPIRE ssion of acknowledgment that
have done anything except something
for which should be censured.' lie then
reasserted that he had sought only the
glory of America, and that he was anxious
that the Investigations should proceed
they would only prove his innocence.
Another gentleman then spoke, who said
that he thought it only fair to state what
he knew of one English firm who had tried
hard to buy of Gen. Van Buren, the right
to put up restaurant, but the General
would not hear to it. He was not to be
bought.
It is certainly trying place. The
General has given his time and labor for
many months, and now, when about to
reap the salts faction of seeing accom-
plished that for which he has so long
toilcd, be is set aside, and another, who
has done nothing, comes in to wear his
honors. If the General is guilty, this
would matter little, although even then
the praise due him should be given; but
if innocent, thon most assuredly does he
deserve sympathy, encouragement and
kindly words from his countrymen. AT
any rate his conduct in coming forward
and offering to give aid and information
| is manly and commerdablc, and we hope
that the investigation will dispcl the
cloud that now hangs over him.

How many mothers complain that their

considering whether the boys are treated
in any wise like gentlemen. The "boys'

scarcely such as are necessary. DO not
say it is of no use to put nice things in 30
untidy place. If you want to interest a

Two Generals.

Ex-senator Foote to Washington Chronicle
General Grant was called upon six
years ago, in manner and under cir
cumstances difficult to be resisted by
any ordinary man, TO cause Generals
Lee and Joe Johnston to be arrested
and tried for treason, despite the SOL
emn parol which had been accorded to
them, and in shameful disregard of
the fidelity with which its conditions
had been complied with. There were
not a few then in whose bosoms re-
venge was ranking, and some even in
high places were heard to cry aloud
that the ''time had come to make trea-
son odious." What was the conduct
of this great captain when thus called
upon to do deed of shame? He in
dignantly refused to be used as an in-
strument for the preparation of such
injustice and tyranny; and, with some
thing of the stern and lofty virtue of
an Aristides or Cato, nobly risked his
own official position upon the result;
thereby, in my judgment, acquiring
more of true glory than ever he had
previously done in all the successful
battles which he had fought in defense
of the Constitution and the Union.
Who has yet dared openly to censure
General Grant for acting this noble
part?
1t is said that General Lee, only a
few weeks before his lamented decease,
was accosted by manned and latter
ed soldier near his own gate, who had
fought on the side of the Government
IN the late unhappy war. This soldier
was poor, diseased, and apparently
friendless. The renowned Confederate
commander heard the tale of suffer-
ings of that unfortunate soldier with
fixed attention, burst into tears, poured
the sweet words of consolation and en-
couragement into his ears, and emptied
the contents of his purse into his weak
and trembling hands. Had all Amer
lea been witness of this touching and
impressive scene, where is the monster
that would have presumed still to in
sist that discord should continue in the
land of Washington, and that the ran
cors produced by this dire conflict
should yet be prolonged by deeds of
reciprocal unkindness

Minnesota Republican Conven-
VentiOn.

ST. PAUL, July 16.-The Republican
State Convention met to-day with a
large attendance, three hundred and
eight delegates being present. The
contest was mainly on the Governor
ship. The principal candidates being
Horace Austin, President, Gov. w. u.
Washburn of Minneapolis, member
of the celebrated Washburn family,
Cushman X. Davis, of this city and
Thomas Armstrong, of the southern
portion of the State. The contest was
very animated, and finally Austin vir-
tually withdrew and Armstrong; force
concentrated on Davis, defeating Wash
burn. The vote on the fourth and final
ballot stood Davis I55, Washburn $50.
The utmost good feeling prevailed, and
the nomination, on motion of Wash
burns friends, was made unanimous.
The Convention then adjourned till
evening and is now in session. Reso-
lutions were adopted favoring cheap
transportation; according capital in
vested in railroads reasonable remuner-
alton, but opposing unjust discrimina-
tiOns and all arbitrary and improper
use of the growing power of the rail-
roads and other corporations.
The ninth resolution says no rights
should be vested in railroad corpora
tions beyond the control Of future leg
islatures. .-
The fifth heartily applauds the meas
urcs of Congress in ferreting out and
exposing corruption, demands pure Of
fetal conduct, and punishment Of un-
faithful public men.
The Sixth condemns, without re-
serve, the sai:ny and back pay grab,
and demands Il prompt repeal of the
law authorizing it.

Searching the World FOR the Kan
Sas MIIrssnrers

An agent Of the Special Detective
Agency of New York is now in Paris
in pursuit of the Bender family, who
are charged with being the authors OF
the wholesale murders lately discover
ed at Cherryvale, Kansas. Detectives
from the same agency have been sent
to London and all the leading Europe
an cities. One Of the accused, Johanna,
or as she is commonly known, Katie
Bender, is quite young, has red hair,
and is person of rather repulsive fea-
lures, with furtive and distrustlul
expression. She was seen on steam
er which left New York for Iavre, and
it is supposed that the whole family
are at the French capital or In the en-
virous. Kate Bender is possessed of
some education, and is said to be able
to speak little French. If they are
really in France, now that the police
are On their track, it will be impossi-
BILE for them long to escape detection.
Itappears that the world is to be ran
sacked that these murderers may be
caught. 1t is most singular that, with
the strongly marked characteristics Of
all four members of this infamous fam
lily, they have escaped detection so

The following prescription was adopt.
ed by the College OF Physicians in
Philadelphia in 1866. 1t has been re-
peatedly published, but, as it has stood
the test of many years of experience
it will bear republication at this time
1t is regarded by many as probably the
very best prescription that can he used
for cholera in its incipient stages:
"Iaudanum, ounces spirits o.
camphor, 2 ounces; tineture of caps
cum, ounce; tineture of ginger, ]
ounce; essence of peppermint,'2 ounces

anodyne can not be. readily obtained
substitute. sulphuric ether-half the
quantity. Mix thoroughly, and shake
well every time it is used. Give OF
take from ten TO twenty-five drops, ac-
cording to age, condition and violence
of the attack. Repeat every twenty
minutes till relief is obtained. In q
desperate case take a tablespoonful al
once. Take it in an equal quantity Of
water, and lie on the back quietly or in
an easy sitting posture, with the back
supported, till it has full opportunity
to work. Carry a small vial in the
pocket, with a few Jumps of white su-
gar upon which to drop it, to be used
in sudden emergencies"
