These gentlemen, OF whom Charles

Just at this time the movements of
the United States troops are noted with
interest. A movement of the force out
Of the city has been expected, but ex-
pectations have not been realized, for
the troops are still In their quarters.
and yesterday the force was swelled by
the arrival of two detaehments Of COM

with quarters within the corporation
limits.
The armament OF the command sta
toned at the Orleans Hotel, in the rear
of the st. Louis Hotel building, was
strengthened yesterday by the addition
OF two twelve pound Napoleon guns
and ammunition for them.
The reporter OF the DEMOCRAT last
night called at the residence OF Gen.
Augur, but failed to see him, the Gene
raj being Ill. He, however. succeeded
In finding Major Russell, chief OF staff,
who stated that the detachments OF
cavalry consisted OF not more than nine
or ten men, and that they were on re-
turn trip from Fort Leavenworth, Kan
sas, to which place they had conveyed
prisoners, and were bound for Fort
Brown, Texas. He said further that
there was no cavalry In this department,
and that there had been no change In
orders. He knew nothing about the
two guns which were taken into the Or

had been brought in there, and IL they

New York Letter.1
Mrs. Croly, the "Jenny June" of the
newspapers, has had o series OF Sunday
evening receptions, which have brought
together q great number Of writer's,
artists and notable people. It would
take too much Of your valuable space to
and those who ought to be celebrities,
who have attended them. And there
will be something Of regret when they
end, next Sunday night. Mrs. Croly
lives In tijou OF house on Thirty
eighth street, which Is neatly furnished,
and so tastefully ornamented with pic
lures and articles Of virtu that it would
puzzle anyone to tell exactly what
there is in it that produces such an
agreeable impression Of comfort and
refinement. She entertains pleasantly
and without ostentation-a and seeing
her there in her coy home,
pect that she Is perhaps the
most active and hard working
literary woman In New York. She edits
Demorest's Monthly, the last number OF
which has o capital article on "Our
Boys" from her pen-Writes for one OF
the city dailies, and is the New York
correspondent OF the Baltimore AneTi-
can and a California paper contributes
occasionally to magazines and furnishes
the fashion correspondence for twenty
eight papers In the United States. Be-
sides all this work, she is President of
Sorosis, and one OF the most active
workers IN 1t. and she probably did
more than any other to plan and origi-
nate the Woman's Congress. She Is a
pale-faced, earnest, nervous woman,
who looks business, and, though full Of
kindness, is altogether too active and
seriously engaged to waste herself In
the mere sentimentalities OF sympathy.

This Is o really interesting story. It
Is quite lengthy. too, running through
4I2 pages. Its hero is noble charac-
ter. one that might serve as an example
for anv honorable young man ambitious
to excel in his calling and be Of service
to mankind. The story deals largely
with American life and foreign travel,
and many chapters OF 1t abound In
scenes and incidents tof absorbing in
terest. Occasions are appropriately
called up for opposite allusions to the
rich and the poor, and the narrative lets
In great deal Of light upon the condi-
tion and prevailing habits and sympa-
thies OF each. The thoughts that fill
the mind of a traveller In q foreign land,
the difficulties that he meets with in his
struggles toward the goal of recognized
success, the raptures that fill the soul
on returning to native land after years
of absence and thrilling adventures,
with narrow escapes from death, are
presented In becoming relations In this
very interesting novel. John Maribel

people, who are well able to appreciate
moderation and respect for constitu-

Among public men Mr.. Hayes elec-
tion cannot excite genuine enthusiasm,
except In those who regard politics as a
gambling trfckery game. It may be
viewed with moderate satisfaction as an
escape from the worse evils of pro-
longation of the excitement or conflict
OF titles, but Mr.. Hayes has not, unfor-
tunately, the moral weight necessary to
ballast Republican administration.
Situated thus, as he must be, even
with the best intentions, he will prob
ably be unable to carry into effect many
OF the pledges OF his letter to the Gin
