become In every grade Of tho service no
man acquainted with the condition of the army
needs TO be told and so much is its efficiency
imnaired by this and other forms OF dissipation
that. from merely economical motives, reform
is urgently necessary. "The appearance OF our
"private troops" says EN- official authority,

"tbey fill with dread the decent fathers and
"mothers of every provincial town IN when
"they are billeted." We have no means OF
reaching these men but the one provided by
this association. Instead of suffering their
minds to lie utterly fallOw and idle, libraries
of standard works, live, clean, strong thought,
are placed in their hands and an effort Is made
TO rouse them to an interest in the great topics
of the day, besides more direct work in behalf
of temperance and religion.
As TO the manner in which the organization
is conducted, it appears that it Is to be trusted
even i'm these slippery times. The names are
good, Gen. Aspinwall being President, and
Gems. sherman, Burnside and Hancock, VIM.
l.. Dodge and Robert Hoe, among the Vice
Presidents. Libraries such rs we describe
above are furnished for $50 and sent to any
most with the name of the donor. The receipts
of the association during the last year amounted
TO nearly $22 900, all Of which was paid for
reading matter, with the exception of $1,000
of salaries to secretaries, etc. The sales
to the army amounted to nearly %l0,Ooo.
The soldiers at remote Outposts were
stimulated to form reading clubs de-
batting societies, temperance societies, &c
Subscriptions usually ranged from 81 to $25.
Such are the brief outlines of this work, which
seems to be thoroughly commendable. NO one
Is benefited by it but the soldier who often from

THE CASE or MIR, DANA.

1t is reported from Washington that what
ever chance there may have been few days
ago of securing q favorable Committee report
on the nomination of Mr.. Dana as Minister to
England has been destroyed by Mr.. Danas
letter to Senator Boutwell,. That letter is re-
garded by the Committee as "a direct insult i"
to them. They do not mean to excuse it, but
Mr.. Cameron, Mr.. Morton, Mr.. Conkling, Mr.
Howe, and the rest of them, will certify to the
Senate their opinion that Richard II. Dana, jr..

The annual report of a most admirable as
ISOLATION is now placed before us, an as
ISOLATION known probably to few of our
readers 1t is an organization for supplying
tho army posts with wholesome reading matter,
books, pamphlets, and magazines OF both
religious and secular character. OF tho uses
of such work but little need be said There
is probably 10 man in the country forced by
circumstances INTO d position surrounded by
such temptation as the private soldier
and inferior officer of the army, Kept
at an isolated post, without society other
than that found in the barrack-room; or sent
from station to station, without family or
domestic ties, without any civiliKing religious
or even moral influence beyond that of the chap

ticable, the only outlet offered for the natural
inclinations of the disciplined man is vice of one
sort or another. How common drunkenness has

slight indication Of the public belief that that

It is impossible to determine by the evidence
thus far obtanable whether or not the en-
barrassments of William C.. Barrett, the law
yer, which have resulted in the dissolution OF
his firm, his serious illness and unexpected de-
parture for Europe, are attributable to cIim-
inalty or misfortune in business. The hesita-
ton with which the current rIImOrs are ac-
cepted by some and tho Indignation with
which his friends resent the imputations attest
the value of reputation long sustained by good
and useful acts. This first whisper against the
man will have to be spoken in more positive
tones before being fully credited
The work that will he done to-day in the
Republican Convention at Syracuse is already
forcshadowed The friends of Mr.. Conkling
claim that he holds $50 ont of the 423 dele
gates and while this is probably an over
estimate. it Is clear that he has largo
majority. Mr.. Curtis however, at the
head of determined few, is urging
that the delegation shall not be pledged and
though the effort at first seemed almost hope
less, the latest adviccs make some concession
probable. The Convention is expected to be
very definite in resolutions favOrlng hard
money, and concerning the school question
and measures for furnishing official delinquents.
