THE next meeting of the Association
for the Reform and Coditication of the
Law OF Nations is to be held at The
Hague, in Holland, during the first week
in September. The King of Holland is
taking leading interest in this Asso-
citation, and great interest is anticipated
in the meeting at The Hague. The last
meeting was held at Geneva in 1874. A
conference of the friends of the move
ment in this country was lately held in
New York for the purpose Of consider
ing programme Of exercises for the in
ternatlonal meeting in September.
Among the notable peace men who were
present at the New York Conference
were Theodore D. Woolsey, President of
Yale College; David Dudley Field, the
most distinguished code reformer OF the
world; President F. A. 2. Barnard,
Judge G. A. Peabody, DR.. j. b. Miles,
Rev. DR.. Prime, Field and Osgood, and
Chancellor Pruyn. A series of ques-
tions prepared by D. ID. Field and agreed
to- have for their object collection of
facts and opinions from the most intelli-
gent statesmen, jurists and others, in
respect to a proportioDate reduction OF
the ornaments Of European nations; the
formalities and delays that should be
required Of nations before engaging in
offensive war; arbitration ior interna
Lonal difficulties; the progress maze
during the past year toward the reform
and codifcation OF the law OF nations
and collisions at sea. The ultimate OBJ
ject is to get the armies of the European
nations reduced TO the simple require
ments of internal peace and the protec
tion OF external commerce, and to estab
lish method of peacefully arbitratinI
all international disputes. The follow
ing gentlemen were appointed delegate
to attend tho meeting at The Hague

Mr.. Atwood, the aged philanthropist,
who died recently in England, had q
simple way in his charity. His plan was
to 20 personally to the bank which kept
the accounts of the particular charity he
wished to befriend, and to hand his note
for 5000 across the counter, with q re-
quest that it should be placed to the
credit of the institution OF his selection,
with certain initials appended. He did
not stipulate for any public acknowledge
ment, although this generally followed as
not confine himself to any particular
person to whom to hand over his dona-
ton, but addressed himself to any clerk
who might be disengaged. Although his
person was familiar in many London
banks, no one was acquainted with his
name, and thus his secret was preserved
until his death.

POVERTY As n CALAMITY.


One of the foremost journals of the
country says that
There is no quarreling with the doc.
trine that the great proportion OF viola.
tioDs OF the law are due to poverty and
its accompaniments--ba air, poor food
exposure, ignorance and all forms OF
privation and suffering.
This doctrine underlies all the DO.
litical, social and educational reforms to
which we have given SO much attention.
Poverty is the great evil, but it Is the
effect of causes over which the poor have
no control, except by the practice OF rigid
economy while young, and by voting
down all the monopolies and all laws that
make against labor and for the benefit ol
capital.
But ignorance forbids the requisite
economy and disqualities the mass oil
mankind for political reforms. How to
4enlighten and moralize the ignorant is
The question. This can be done only by
the aid of the intelligent friends of jus.

will receive much better education

4 STANDING EVE.

That many women should be obliged to earn
their living at the expense OF health is one of
the unfortunate facts of our incomplete civil
ization. That this fact will exist until the ma
iorty of social problems are solved seems
more probable than most hypothesis. But
there are conditions enforced upon some forms
of female labor which are not only unnecessary,
but absolutely criminal Prominent among such
is the practice of compelling shop-glrls to stand
behind counters from seven or eight o'clock in
the morning to six, eight or ten o'clock at
night. There is not a physician in the land
who will not tell any employer OF female help
that, as rule. women, by anatomical struc-
ture. are unfit to stand all day long, particu-
larry in this country, where nerves and false
living have made them infinitely more delicate
than Nature ever intended. There are estab-
lshments wherein may be found printed regu-
tions commanding employees always to stand,
"tO dress neatly and to be absent only half
Gan hour ut dinner" 1t may be, as Milton
says, that "they also serve who only
" stand and watt but why must shop
girls "always sand' while serving mammon 7
That they should be dressed neatly is
proper that they should be absent "only half
"an hour at dinner is thoroughly American
and highly improper AS conducive to dyspepsia
aud its attendant ills; that they should
"always stand Wis brutal.

THE PRESIDENTS SACRIFICE.

The Third Term question was virtually set
tied at the elections last Autumn. The people
who then defeated the Republican party by
their votes did it to show that they had
had enough of the present Administration, its
measures and It's manners. This fact was gen
orally recognized everywhere except at the
Executive Mansion and among the intimate
friends and dependents of the President.
Gen. Grant drew from the disaster to his
party much more cheerful conclusion He
said that Gen. Dix and Mr. Roberts were
beaten because they had declared against his
denomination. Gen. Butler, rs soon "a he could
get back his wind which had been knocked
out of hs body by the decent Republican vote
of his district, said that the party had been
defeated because it did not go far enough in
sustaining the President. OF course nobody
imagines that Butler believed this, but it
seems as il the President did, and went on
hardening his heart against the wise counscls
of those who wanted him to declare against
the third term.
II became apparent that nothing short of the
actual brutality Of denouncng the scheme in
open conventions of the Republican party would
cure the trouble, and the Pennsylvania section
Of the organization was detailed to do the work.
1t was differed by men who love success even
more than they love the President, and who had
no idea of going down at the polls out of any
delicacy towards him. They saw that the third
term scheme was destroying the party and they
made no scruple Of applying to ii the most en-
ergetic surgery. Their action was reasonably
effective. The Fall elections had shown that
Gen. Grant could not be elected again. The
Lancaster resolutions showed that he could
not be nominated. Tho matter might
have been looked upon as satisfacio-
rily settled. But our President, whose
frmncss Of character no one can deny,
was not the man to remain quiet under disci-
plinc like that to which the mutinous Penn
sylvanians had subjected him. He writes
letter to Gen. Harry White, President of the
sacrilegious convention, giving his views in
full of his relations towards third term. lie
says he is not candidate now any more than
he was in 1868 or 1872. As 10 there being
any wcll-fotmded objection to third term,
he sees none. He is eligible. and it is for the
people TO say whom they want. He made .

hensble, but we dare say it is true.
If we urge the President to listen to the In

" of personal abuse and SANDER" and consider
it incompatible with his dignity to comply
with it. Therefore, as we wish to have justice

Lie good. He ran the second time because no

not desire to run again, any more than ne dld
before, and will not, unless it should appear 10
be his imperative duty.
He has done some extraordinary things In
his day, but nothing more singulariy cnnrac-
teristic than this He is still nicely calculating
and balancing just how much he thinks the
Republic owes him, and with tho frankest cam
dor lets the public see the very bottom OF MS
thought about it. He does not think he Is
quite even yet The Generalship was worth
more than these two terms Ofatho PRESIDENCY.
1t was life Office, and he expected that Con-
gress would let him keep it until he was tired
of it, and then let him retire "with the rank
Z" and portion of the cmOluments which he so
much needed" He positively seems to be pro-
posing new trade to Congress; suggesting
that il they want to get him out of the field
for another term-which he evidently thinks Is
due to him-they might arrange it by giving
him back his rank and pay as a General, and
then putting him on the retired list. The sug-
cestion is an eminently practical one and worth
consideration.
We may now safely dismiss the President
from the list of possible candidates for next
wear. Whether he intends ii or not this letter
has given to timid Republicans the Opportu-
nifty of declaring against him, and 1t has
shown to all intelligent people his desire for
third term and his utter unftness for it.

SPOTTED. TlIL GOES TO cHrRCH


The Indian chiefs are having very pleas
ant time in Washington They have been
invited to Arlington Cemetery, entertained
with poems and readings, introduced to the
papal ENJOYS. and favored with number of
interviews by Commissioner Smith and other
subordinate officials of the Government. They
get tobacco which they can smoke and rations
which they can eat, and they squat on the
floor aud play poker all day Sunday
like imperfectly trained Congressman. To be
sure they have stirred up great deal
of had blood and recrimination among
the functiOnaIies of the Indian Office and the
Government interpreters and agents, but il may
be doubted whether they know how mad they
have made all these people and what savage
things they are saying in the newspapers, nor
is it al all certain that they would be distressed
il they did know it. 1t is unfortunate that
somebody should have stolen five dollars from
Spotted Tail and eight shirts from other mem
beers of the delegation, but the Indians are
used to robbery, and we dare say they con-
gratlilate. themselves that in a city full Of
white men they have lost 40 little. On the
