se1ni-hlmorous speech in Danish. He repeated
tho old legend Of the first discoverer OF Iceland
| meeting dragon: bull breathing flame, and
giant coming down from the mountains with an
iron staff all three Of which the hero must over
como before he could possess the land; and
then, ikening Christian X. to the hero left III
in doubt Us to whom or what was typided By the
three monsters, However, exact slmi1e is not
always required; the compliment to the King
found the IceIauders warmed and prepared to
receive it, and the end VAS His Mnjessy's health
with nine tremendous cheers The King re-
turned thanks, With evident feeling, and gayo as
toast:
''PRosrER1TY TO SUBLIME 1cE1ASD!"
After health to Queen Louise Of Danmark,
proposed by Chief-Jua,ice Jonasson, our friend
Eirllr Magnussen made the speech Of the occa-
sion. It was in 1ce}andc, and could only guess
little OF it's substance, here aud there but the
rich Rhythm and resonance of the ancient tongue
were delight to the ear. 1ts contrast with the
natives present kndled and warmed as the
speaker proceeded, until there was burst Of
= Bravo!" after almost every sentence.
In fact, in spite Of the open loyalty
OF the speech, it. WAS powerfully cal
culated to arouse the national pride. Mag
nusson spoke OF tho 1celandors a8 being them
selves OF kingly blood, as obcdieut only to honor
and honesty, md as claiming equal measure
Of respect with that they yielded. HIS words
were manly. not defiant; the very beginning Of
@to AoA4e OLE mug, uisLeAu u 1Uul 1lnJ-
estT struck the old, independent keynote.
and the close. hoping that the second Thousand
years OF Icc!and's history might find the same
d dynasty IN power, WAS only uttered after dis !
tnct declaration Of what Vas expected from the |
dynasty in tho meantime.
This was lifting close to the celebration. |
When We issued from the pavilion it WAS rain
lug more diamally than ever. The horses for
the Kings party were in readiness, and by |
oclock they were in the saddles, meaning to
reach Rejkiarik the same evening. The mem
bers OF the choir went in advance to tlre ALL
aud there. under the lava walls of
the tremendous cleft, sang q parting song.
One by one the cayalcade disappeared around
Inc corner Of the sharp CREST and Thingralla
"as left to the people Of Iceland.
There were to have been many more speeches
ind songs from the tribune On the mound but
he rain seemed to have disturbed the pro-
sramme. After the Kings departure, the peo-
DE broke up INTO little companies, some Of
shich wore jolly enough, and ALL imagine,
made the best Of their situation. Our party, ]

pri. Las escaped notice and been left in

which is so essential an elemen: in active

stopping the ships and steamboats,, and
cantoning the troops all over the State,
but the mechanic and laborer, whose daily
bread depends upon daily wages, may
perish with his family in the test Of prin-
ciple.
We beg our contemporaries not to look
upon this expensive armament as joke.
We advise them not to teach that the
government of the United States is only
to be obeyed so far as it exhibits irresisti-
bic force. We had hoped the Union re-
stored by universal amnesty and universal
good faith: we had not supposed that it
consisted in professions of obsequious ODE
dience before its face. with menace and
contemptuous grimaces behind its back.
The blockade of our river and the mill
tary occupation Of our State is no laugh
ing matter. and we sincerely trust it may
not be made more serious than it is at
present.

lESOLENT DICTATIOE,

The Times. inspired for the moment

ernoz Kellogg and the Republican party.
demands that he abdicate portion of the
authority vested by law in him and his
administration. and remit it to the arbi.
trament Of irresponsible committees,
whom no party has authorized to act in
such capacity. The following precious
kernel was yesterday morning launched
out in mass Of verbiage. for swaddling
clothes:
A refusal 70 assent to the terms Of an
equitable compromise will be construed
into determination to carry the election
by fraud. and certainly Governor Kellogg
can not afford to render such conclusion
inevitable. or t. remain Governor Of the
State on such conditions.
4 refusal. therefore. to let outside par.
ties dominate the executive policy is to be
construed By those parties. with the tacit
assent of the Tines. into positive deter.
mination to carry the election by fraud
and repeat the rascalities which were
prac:iced in 1872. II it should turn out,
however. that this construction is wrong,
We presume the Tines will be ready with
a humble apology on the day after the
election. accompanied by the declara ton
that those who suggested it were design.

sire perfectly fair election, and the pub.

It is all very fine for Nh. Markham. with
other pound-texts Of the White League
persuasion, to shout at the top of his voice
those anti-Christian sentiments which
fired the hearts Of his hearers the other
day. Tears of envy cloud the eyes of
many Of his brethren on account OF the
reputation he has established. But Mr..
Hartzell. who speaks like a reasoning
man, commits heinous otfense when he
tells the truth about the matter. and ex-
plains the causes Of the late uprising. We
have no serious objection to clergymen
taking part in politics. II they can not
interest their hearers without making
stump speeches from the pulpit, why let
them go ahead. They have been doing
this rather freely and VIGOROUSLY of late.
and some Of them have INDUCED in the
blasphemy Of asking Just God to look
with approval upon the oppres.
sions Of thousands of His people
in this State, and shower His choicest
blessings upon their assailants. Let
the preachers be as free as anybody else
to make exhibitions of themselves, or do
anything else to revive the rapidly waning
interest in their platitudes. But give
every parson a fair show. Do not ap-
provingly pat Palmer, Markham and those
pious divines who lately held extra ses-
sions to thank God for the recent riots,
and condemn Mr.. Hartzeu for having his
say in the same matter. Fair play is a
jewel, and we insist upon it that all the
clergy shall be permitted to speak their
minds freely. 1t is not fair, when dea-
con of the church finds his son engaged
in fight, to catch the other boy and hold
him while he lectures him against the sin
Of fighting, and permits his antagonist ia
