Lyceum Bureau Excursion.

The organization now known rs the Lyceum
Bureau some years ago conceived, planned and
carried into execution the idea that excur-
sions down the Potomac could, through re-
sponsiblc management he raised toa higher
degree ofrcspcctahihty than they had hitherto
attained, and, at the same time, retain all the
essential features SO indispensable to this class
of amuscmcnts. by ohcrpy and fair dealing
they have placed their own enterprise upon
firm basis and have so popularizcd excur-
sons on the river that they arc to-day the
most sought after of all places and means Of
recreation which our city and the surrounding
country affords.
Among the patrons Of the bureau cxcur-
sions are numbered most Of the leading
churches Of the city and other organizations
| of the highest order, one Of which is repre-
scnted and receives benefit from the sale Of
tickets each week. The rowdy element is not
wanted at any price on these excursions and
they are so conducted that persons Of this
character find themselves out Of place and do
not care to attend second time. The com
pany promises nothing II cannot fulfill and
they accomplish all that they guarantee. They
also return promptly at the time advertised,
which is thing often disrcgnrded upon cX-
cursions that 1t Is hard to make people believe
that they will not be kept out all night.
There has never occurred on any excursion
given under this management either accident
or unpleasantness of any kind. The boat is
never over-crowded, the average attendance
being but about four hundred, or one-half the
number which the MARY Washington" will
carry with comfort to all. The company's
rules are strict and will not allow liquOrs ofany
kind to be sold or brought on the boat, and
such is their system that ladies or children are
perfectly safe under their care.
The regular trips occur every Wednesday
leaving at o'clock and returning promptly
at II p. m. We predict them profitable aud
pleasant future in their line, aud we heartily
recommend them to the large class of people
who have hitherto been dcbarred to a great
extent from enjoying the pleasures and bene
fits afforded by our beautiful Potomac. BY
reference to the advertisement, 1t will be seer
that no excursion will be given this week
July ~ but after that date they will go reg
ularly every Wednesday.

RECONCILIATION.

We desire to direct particular attention to
the article from the Augusta Chronicle and
Sentinel relating to the Presidents Southern
trip, which we reproduce in another column
1t has great Significance owing to to the fact
that that paper is one of the oldest and most
influential journals in the South We hope
that the generous and enlightened scnti-
ments expressed by the Chronicle and Sca'-
tinei may soon prevail in every part of the
Republic, and that all sectional feelings may

THE BALTIMORE COLLECTORSHTP.
Mr. Chariss 9. Fuiton's Letter to President
Hayes.


The excitement over the Baltimore collector
ship was greatly intensified yesterday by the
publication Of tho Fulton letter, q copy Of
which we give below. So far as the President
Is concerned tho matter WINS finally settled by
issuing an order to suspend wilkins and sign
ing the commission Of Mr. Thomas, and di-
rectlng him TO take possession Of the office as
soon as his bond could be approved. The
President Is fully satisfied rs TO the propriety
of his action, which will, no doubt he con.
CURED in by the Senate.
The following is the lcttor written by Mr..
Fulton TO the President, which has been the
subject Of so much unfavorablc comment:

DEAK sIR As the appointment OF Colonel wilkins
to the collectorship OF Aaltimore was partly upon
asking hi rSmoTnl thSt % indoeS % ig him - w III the
positive assurance from him TINT he would be will
lug to retire at the close Of President Grants term
In favor Of Mr. Thomas The President had of his
own volition, assured me that he would ask Mr.
Booth to resign and appoint Mr. Thomas admit
was was DESTROYS Of undons IL lie asked and received
the resignation Of Collector Booth, whom Mr. Cres-
wen interfercd and insisted that Mr. Thomas
that he would appoint any one that Mr.. Croswell
and myself would select. As We were In the midst
Of the canvas Il WAS neeessary ths, promp, action
take Il for the balance Of President Grants term.
Thus this appointment was made, and "A soon "A
Col wilkins became collector he used hts power TO
drive Mr. Thomas from the chairmauship Of the
State central committee, falling In which he conf
mcnccd an open war on the committee and did all
In hts power, IN cooperation with Mr.. Croswcll to
hamper and weaken Its influence. He was morr
persistent drorgnnizer than Collector Booth had
been, and his position In the party at present Is
such that neither Republicans nor Rcformers are
| willing TO make nominations for the municipal
| contest.
II the President will promptly make the appoint
ments for Maryland that have been suggested TO
ton of n reform candidate for mayor next fall The
nlnnl districts Of Maryland are Republican, and
when the Baltimore rings Of the bourbon Dcmoc-
ncy are broken their power will be gone.
With much respect and thanks for the appoint
ment Of Cen. Tyler, am, very respectfully, yOurs,

THE determination of President HAYES to
spend his summers at the Capital will be
heartily commended by the public The char
acter Of the duties which the Constitution and
the laws impose upon the President are such
rs to make It incxpcdicnt If not unlawful, for
him to reside elsewhere. The District of Co.
lumbia being designated as the seat Of govern
mont, there is nn obvious improprcty in prac-
tically removing one branch of the Govern
mcnt out of the District, as is practically done
when the President takes up his residence
elsewhere. Mr.. HAYES is right in following
the old practice

Mr. HAYES, like LINCOLN, always comes

IT APPEARS from Secretary SHEHMASs letter
to x-CollcctOr WILKINS that he was removed
