New South Wales has come TO the
front in splendid spirit, her Parliament
having appropriated five thousand
pounds sterling for the purpose of a
proper representation of that Colony at
the Centennial, next year, at Philadel.
phia. New South Wales is the earliest
settled portion Of Australia, aud in its
territory, We think, the first Australian
gold was discovered. For long while
it was noted chiefly for its herds OF cat.
tie aud hocks of sheep. 1t has large
territory, almost twice the extent Of that
OF California, and it is very productive
and fertile, with fine climate. The
line of steamers between this city and
Sydney, the chief city Of New South
Wales, is creating far more intimate
and, We believe, friendly feeling between
the citizens Of Uucle Sam and the sub
jects OF John Bull than ever before. =

The Chief Magistrate OF the country with
his principal officers attended by a great
number of citizens, assembled to do
homage to the memory of the valiant
dead, and place upon their graves the
grateful testimony Of nations love

their tear watered graves may spring tho
flowers OF peace, unity and concord.

may that dread sacrifice not be in vain.
There is, we feel thankful to be able to
say, every hope that the bitterness and
=
enmity engendered by tho terrible strife
in which so many brave men fell, will
soon pass utterly away and be buried
deep, never, never to be resusci-
tated. On the day rendered sacred
BY the memories OF the honored dead

men of the valiant dead assembled at
their graves. and with noble forgetful-
ness OF past dissensions, strove only to
honor the memories of those who had
fallen, without asking whether they had
worn the blue or gray. May those feel
ings of sorrow for the fallen bring forth
an earnest and unselhsh desire for en-,
tire and complete reconciliation. May
those generous impulses neverb crushed
or coldly turned aside. May they con
tinue to grow and flourish until they

Some time ago it will be remembered
that Grant offered the Russian Mission
to old General Meiggs, Quartermaster
General of the army. Public opinion at
the time regarded it as funny appoint
ment, but when it leaked out that the
object was to make room in the Quar-
termaster Generals Office for Rufe In
gals, one of the White House Ring,
and Grants particular crony, the matter
was fully explained. Old Gen. Meigss
was too foxy. however. to be caught, for
when he found that the acceptance of
the diplomatic post would necessitate
his resigning his position in the army,
he promptly declined it. The White
House ring have at last found way
to get rid OF him, and that,
too, without affronting his sense of
honor. Grant has discovered that the
good of the country demands that some
officer high in rank shall make careful
inspection of all fortresses, military
posts, and military systems in every
country in Europe, and he has detached
General Meiggs from dutyl in the Quar-
termaster Generals Department and
ordered him on this special service.
General Rufus Ingalls,, so reads the
order. will act as Quartermaster Gen
eral Of the army during General Meiegs
absence. As General Meiggs will not
be permitted to come homo under two
years this will give General Rufe quite
time enough for his purpose, which is
to get rich. Look ont now for Ring in
the Quartermaster's Department which
will put the White House Ring com
pletely in the shade.-[S. +. Post.
