BRooKLYN, July pa large con-
coure of persons occupied Leffert's
Park yesterday afternoon to hear
Miss Anna Oliver, the girl preacher,
deliver an address to young men.
After singing and prayer, Miss spoke
eloquently to an attentive audience,
ON the benefits and delights of pre-
sent salvation. Miss Oliver was
graduated at Rutger Female College,
on Fifth avenue, New York city,and
then entered the theological school of
the Boston University (Methodist),
the first female student ever admitted
to that school. She pursued a three
years course, during which she sup
ported herself by working during
vacations, and was graduated in June
1876. Soon after the conclusion OF
her theological studies, Miss Oliver
took charge of the First Methodist
church at Passaic, n. j., where she
remained nearly a year. Her first
audience at this church consisted OF
fifteen persons, but before the end OF
the year the church was crowded al
all services. Miss Oliver is a licensed
but not ordained preacher of the
Methodist church. The period OF
probation before she will be entitled

MILITARY COLONIES.

The idea of the oil Greek and
Roman "colony" was essentially mil
itsry. Its organization. government
and traditions were modelled from
the camp. Quite different is the
spirit and intent of the modern
colony, whose sole aim is the peaceful
cbnquest of nature, and its morale the
sturdy independence Of the untrsmeled
frceholders Of the Republican common
wealth. Now. however, there il pro-
position to revive the old idea, and
carry on the colonization Of the West
By means Of o centralized military
organization and discipline. The plan
osrtainly presents some points Of recon-
mendation and advantage, comminglsd.
no doubt. with others Of objection and
difficulty. The following Is the detailed
description of the scheme:
A new association is forming here
known a. the enlisted labor association.
It 10 proposed to urge upon Congress
the passage OF . law by which l00. 900
volunteers may be enlisted for i've
years for military and agricultural pur-
poses, on . reservation of the govern
ment. Twelve skilled mechanics or
artisans are to DO in each company, and
one regiment of each corps is to be of
engineers exclusively. Az soon Is TO-
600 men shall be enlisted they shall be
sent to q reservation. and upon their
arrival sbsll lay out . city and begin
the erection of suitable quarters for
permanent settlement, preparing land
for agricultural purposes, and develop
ing the mineral resources Of the coun-
try. Each corps 10 10 be furnished by
the government with seeds. stock, farm.
ing implements and tools. Volunteers
are TO receive the same pay - regular
soldiers, and every person 20 enlisted
shall. upon honorable discharge. be Ell.
titled to leo acres of land, Is now pro-
vided for by the homestead act. or to
one lot within the limits Of the city, as
be may elect. Every alternate lot is
to be reserved TO the United States.
There iscertainly novelty if not prac-
ticality in this idea. We incline to
the belief II would be an excellent
thing for tina subjugation Of heavy tim
Der lands in Washington Territory, for
instance, to the uses of agriculture.
We have often puzzled in contemplate
ing the seeming futlity Of civil
lied man opening Q strife on these
savage Businesses, how the prsbs
leon oftheir utalizstion could be sclv-
ed. Yet the soil Of our timbered lands
is fertile and bountifully profitable
when properly cultivated. If one of
these military colonies were put into
operation here. We presume it would
sweep everything clean before it its
track a. any army does when advanc-
cling in line. No doubt 1t would sub.
