Captain John Brown.

The dedication of monument to this
noted man ut Ossawattomie on Friday tends
to revive recollections which some squeamish
people may think inopportune but we see
no good reason anybody should object. The
right to erect monuments and to cherish
the memory Of popular favorites should be
freely conceded to both parties to the late
civil strife. Of course the people of the
North contributed neither money nor in
huence to the monument to Stone
wall Jackson, but when the people Of
the South chose to pay that tribute
of respect it was their right. Stonewall
Jackson was unique and excellent type of
American character, and, however mis-
taken he may have been in his opinions, it
is to be hoped that the country will not
cease to produce men as brave, as religious,
as loyal to their convictions as sincere and
single minded as that praying and fighting
Confederate general. John Brown was also
q unique and remarkable specimen OF
American character brave, religious, in
flexible with heart as tender as woman's,
but willing to sacrifice himself and those
who were most uenr 10 MIN III pur-
suance of what he believed to be right.
God grant that men of this heroic mould
may never be wanting either in the North
or the South Our common country, now
happily reunited, has reason to be proud OF
the valor, the endurance, the public spirit,
the readiness to stake life and fortune in
cause believed to be just, which were mani
tested on both sides previous to and through
out the civil war. Transient errors of
opinion can be overlooked and condoned,
but the hardy and heroic virtues, when
exhibited in high degree, should
always be honored even in adver-
saries. We do not believe that any
right-minded Southerner will take umbrage
Mt the honors paid to the memory of John
Brown, for even ut the time when he was
executed in Virginia his coolness, sincerity
and manly bearing extorted the admiration
of the supporters of slavery. Soon after
the affair at Harper's Ferry Governor Wise
said, in speech ut Richmond:-"Colonel
Washington said that Brown was the cool
est man he ever saw in defyng death and
danger. With one son dead by his side, and
another shot through, lie felt the pulse of
his dying son with one hand, held his rifle

Mr. BIorrissey recently set himself tc
bring together the fastest of our oarsmen,
even though the meeting seemed improba-
BILE at first, and has worked most satisfac-
tory results, showing conclusively who is
the fastest sculler in this country. Now il
some of our public spirited citizens would
lend their aid toward bringing about this
far more important meeting, to take place
on Saratoga Lake or some other New York
water early in the coming summer, no
doubt the Australian could be prevailed on,
champion Of the world though he be, to ac-
cept their invitation and test American hos
pitality and appreciation of merit such as
his, even as do the English rifemen to-day.
Negotiations should be opened at once and
every step taken to insure such race rs

necessary to help in deciding the champion

Trickett and Courtney.


BY our recent advices from Australia
"Trickett is open to row any man in the
world for Ave thousand dollars and give the
English or American champion fifteen hum
dred dollars for expenses to visit the antip-
odes." 1t was also announced after Court
neys victory the other day that he stood
ready to row any man in the world for five
thousand dollars. Here, then, it happens
that two men, both proved to be excep-
tionally fast at the sculls, but living on op-
posite sides Of the earth. are eager to get at
each other, and in a contest which would
awaken an interest even greater than that Of
the famous Marlborough fight wherever the
English tongue is spoken. While Courtney
rowed three miles in 20 min. AZ "a Sec, the
fustest time on record, Trickett is reported
to have lately beaten Rush, the ex-cham-
pion Of Australia in race Of three miles
and three-quarters and one hundred yards
in % min. 26 $40 Sec, which, even allow
ing time for the turn in Courtney's race
would make the Australians time over three
miles some two minutes better than the
Americans This, however is almost GER

The End OF the Holida Us.

The holidays are almost over, and the
waves OF life which at the beginning of sum
mer poured out of the cities now flow back
again with the beginning Of the fall. The
steamships arc bringing home the travellers
who have been delighted with London or
dazzled with Paris, or have done the Alps
or Italy Hunters and fishermen begin to
como back from Canada and the Adiron-
dacks, and tourists from the Plains and the
shores of the Pacific. The floating popula-
ton of the fashionable watering places
diminishes Niagara will in few weeks
roll on and hear no sound save that
of its own dashing; Lake George
will be almost as lonely as it was
when none but the Indians knew its beauty !;
Saratoga's healing waters will waste their
saltness on the desert air and Old Ocean will
pour forth his music unheard from the Isle
Of Shoals to Cape May The mountains will
be left alone in their savage grandeur.
There will be those who will still remain in
the country, for September is beautiful
month but even those telegrams which the
cooler nights suggest, Express my over
coat at once y ''Send my shawl it is in the
lower bureau drawer" will soon burden the
wires no longer, and the season will be ended.
Happy ere those who have brought from the
country health and good spirits and are
better prepared to resume the duties Of
business. Soon the active season of the
year will be in full career. The fall trade
reason to expect busy time the churches
will be opened, and pastors and focks will
meet once more; the theatres already pre-
sent new plays and companies lectures
and libraries offer attractions to students ;
the schools are prepared for the children,
and society will soon move upon its accus-
toned grooves. So the holidays end and
the world goes to work again, better and
happier, we trust, for the change.

Pulpit Topics To-day.

Our religious columns indicate that many
of our city churches which have been
closed, or partly so, for two months, will
who have been resting and recuperating in
country places for the same period will be
in their wonted places to-day. Among the
latter we notice Drs. Woodruff, Armitage,
King, Hatfield, Sabine, Lloyd, Knapp,
Hull and Martyr. Some of these brethren
will offer words of greeting to their con-
gregations from whom they have been sep
arated, and in week or two more other
pastors who have gone to Europe and con-
gregations that have scattered to the
four winds will gather together again
in their accustomed houses of wor-
ship, and the fall campaign against
the world, the flesh and the devil
will be opened with freshness and
vigor. The labor question, in some of its
aspects, will be discussed to-day by Messrs
Walford and Hatfield, and the temperance
question, which is so closely allied to the
former, by Professor Hutchings. Mr..
Walford will solve the problem, or, at least,
attempt it, how to provide employment for
the people, and Mr.. Hatfield will show that
God is not unmindful of His promise to
men, and Professor Hutchings will explain
the duty of the hour in regard to the vice Of
intemperance. AS indicative of the desire
of the churches for great revival this fnll
and winter Mr.. Lloyd will picture the
Church on her knees praying for q revival
and raising the banner of love, with the
name OF Christ engraven thereon as the
symbol of victory. Mr.. Mccarthy, who has
just been disfe)iowshipped by the Univer-
salist State Convention, will present to-day
the views of the leading evangelical minis
ters of the city upon the creed OF his Church.
When he started the American Free Church
he sent printed circulars to the clergymen
OF New York, giving the basis of his new en-
terprise and asking their cooperation and
Endorsement as far as they could consist
emily accord both. The letters which he
will read this morning to his Church are the
answers sent from such men as Drs. Deems.
Crosby and Armitage. They will, without
doubt, be interesting.

Rifle Practice at Creedmoor.

The rifle practice at Creedmoor last week
resulted in some remarkably fine scores,
both for individuals and for the rival teams,
and justifes the expectation that the coming
match will be one of the closest and most
exciting of the international series. The
average of the Americans on Wednesday
last-2O5 points out of possible 225--is
not likely to be beaten, and they may be
satisfied if they keep their practice near
to that standard The British team on the
same day averaged only 1872 but have
shown since that their skill is not to be
measured by one trial. On Saturday they
surpassed any shooting they have done
either in America or in Great Britain,
making the superb average of 203 3-5,
which places them almost beside the Amer
leans in their practice. After the shooting
was over Sir Henry Halford good naturedly
but ironically remarked, 81 understand
that last night the betting was two
to one against us" Such extravagant
odds will not be offered, even by the
most enthusiastic believer in American in
vincibility, if the British riflemen continue
to shoot as they did on Saturday. To-mor-
row and Wednesday fuller opportunity Of
studying the merits Of the teams will be
afforded, as they will then shoot side by
side. Some of the individual scores have
been unusually large, three members of
the British team and two OF the
American having each made 207, while
General Dakin leads all with the magnif-
cent total Of 215. Mr.. Selph, of the Loui-
siana team, who is not in the great contest,
but will shoot in the interstate match,
comes next with 212, SO that altogether the
shooting at Creedmoor this year is likely to
excel in interest and merit any display ol
the kind on record.

Death OF Another Old Actor.

In the death OF Il. L. Davenport the
and one OF. the most accomplished Of its
artists, one whose place it will be hard to
fill. His genius was 50 facile that he sue
ceeded in everything he attempted, and he
exceled in all the principal lines of his
art. AS tragedian he stood among the
best actors of the time in the higher order
of melodrama he had no superior, and his
comedy was exquisite and charming. He
played Hamlet, Sir Giles Overreach and
Benedick with equal ease, and kept the
public in continual doubt MS to the branch
of art in which he was at his finest. In
tellect and culture were displayed in all
his best characters, but probably his
distinguishing quality was an indescrib-
able grace. Mr.. Davenport never seemed
to labor at the oar. Perhaps this facility of
expression interfered with the concentra-
tion OF his power and created the opinion
that he was an actor of higher general
ability than of genius. 1t is unfortunate
when an artist becomes his own rival. and
Mr.. Davenports fame might have been
greater had his ability been more limited.
What he could have done had he devoted
himself to tragedy alone was indicated a
few years ago, when it might almost be said
that he recreated the character Of Sir Giles
Overreach, and made it one of the most ter
rible pictures of passion on our stage. His
career was long, brilliant and honorable.

with the other, and commanded his men
with the utmost composure, encouraging
them TO be firm and to sell their lives as
dearly as possible" We are sure that no
Southern man at this day regards the fact
that John Brown died upon the gallows as
a stain upon his memory. Such qualities
as he exhibited will receive admiration SO
long as brave men recognize and value IN
others what constitutes their own best titles
to esteem

In THE ARRANGEMEN for the reception Of
the Governors no provision, we regret to see,
has been made for the Aldermen. Their
existence seems to have been entirely ignored,
and unless they go simply rs citizens they will
have no opportunity of meeting the distinguished
guests Of the city. This will be very great
deprivation, not to the Aldermen, but to
the Governors, and, as we have said, is a
mistake Because they were snubbcd by the
Philadelphia authorities is no reason why they
should he sighted here on their own ground.

programme will be changed. As body our

the two. They can, of course, put questions to
