Exercises i'm Ls.nG's Hall Yesterday
AfiernOSn-A Slim Attendance.


MoEE EAIR.
The principal feature of the reunion, dur
ing the two days of its continuance, was the
rain, wsich oos;inued its devoted attentions
both right and day, and efTectually prohibit
ing any exercises AT the camp grounds uIHn
the reservation. Night before last the rain
fell in torrents, diS>ipating the fond hopes of
those who lonsed for one bright day, and
yesterday, t.e second and last Day, opened
a. drear and miserable as the preceding one
had closed. The majority of the visitors
WENT HOME
th.s night previous, having, satisfied them
selves that the rais had the best side OF the
argument, although many remained TO see
what yesterday had to ofIeE. Nothing Was
done in the forenoon, with the exception of a
parade of colored re unioners, headed by the
Kansas City Central Band No., !. meeting
at Laing's Hall had been announced for the
afternoon, 10 open at one o'clock, but
owing.to some hitch in the arrangements,
the hall WIS not opened until nearly two
O'Clock, when the crowd streamed in, barely
half filling it.
YESTERDAYS EXERCISES.
As on the day previous, ex-senator Iald-
Well presided, and made a short address aNer
calling the meeting 10 order. He then intro
ductd Judge Perkins, of Oswcgo, WHO made a
few remarks, which met with hearty re-
Spouse. Mr.. John J.. Waller, an attorney, Of
Cedar Rapids, lowa, was then fntroduo. d,
who m2de a stirring speech, his effort being
cheered time and again. After the reading
OF poem By Col. +. &. q. CIn.l, the aud
ence having Skinned oht until scarce half n
hundred remained, the chairman announced
that as the committee on programme hadn't
taken enough interest in the affair 10 see it
cIreied out, he thought il best TO adjourn the
meeting, which he accordingly did.

Our efficient and gertlemanly County Reg

deed recently MED for record in his ONCE
from Chas. A. Richa rdson, Of Boston, as
guardian of the children of the late Albert

Hill. Richardson was one of the original
stockholders in that town, and took an &C.
tive part in early Kansas politics. His tragi-
cal death by the hands Of Mr.. Daniel McFsr-
land few years ago in New York is still
fresh in the memory of our readers.

RailrOad ExtensiOus in kansas.
Il 1


Work was begun on the 18th inst, upon
the extension ofthe Central Branch road from
Coucordia west. 1t is expected that trains
will be running to Beioit within three
months, and to Cawker City before the close
of the year, as the contracts are all let.
In addition, the Central Branch manage
ment contemplates a road running up the Re-
publican valley from Concordia into Nebras-
ka in the direction of Willow Island, on the
Union Pacific railrosd.
The extension of the Central Branch to
Cawker City carries il to point directly
north of Wilson. on the Kansas Pacific, and
q little east OF north Of Great Bend, on the
Atchisou, Topeka & Santa Fe road. A glance
at the map Of the State will show how thor
oughly all points Of communication are now
penetrated by railroads. There are over nfty
counties Ia the 81 tie that enjoy railroad fa
cilities.
In a conversation dsy or two since with
Mr.. Schofield, who has just achieved q some
what remarkable success in building . line
from Ottawa to Burlington, he informed US
that he was then on his way TO New York to
make arrangmen' for extending that line to

The second patty claiming the quarter sec

Mayor of Omaha, was then introduced by

remarks he said: What care we for thunder.

With the memory of Antietam, Fredricks-
burg, Atlanta, Chattanooga, and a score of
other historic battlefields, 1 cherish no feel

a loyal citizen to-day. This is no loye-feast
however, and II he were here do not think
he would enjoy IL. He could not be here to-
day in this loyal assembiage and feel COM
Portable. He can enter our halls of Congress
and occupy positions, of honor and trust
open to everyone, but there is an inner
temple into which he cannot come. and this
is it, have come down from the state over
your northern border to meet you upon the
soil where the rebellion broke out, where the
war was inaugurated: that war which arrayed
brother against brother, disrupted families
and was the formation OF evils the effects of
which we have not yet recovered, nor from
which We can recover for years TO come. What
is this country? 1t is growth, and majesty
and power, and above all, freedom. We
fought to preserve all this country. the North
as well as the South. l say to our Southern

After music, Governor Anthony was intro
duced-His Excellency was evidently i'm his
most sarcastic ID, as was evidenced from
his Introductory remarks. Referring to the
words of the chairman in introducing him,
Mr.. Caldwell having spoken of him as "a
man known throughout the entire State and
indeed, the whole west, the Governor said,
wonderful, for in view of the persistent adj
vertising have had, il am not already we'll
known, soon Will be. Regarding the occa
sion he spoke of such opportunities as the
present as being most beneficial, because they
afforded the chance to bring the old soldiers
together and make each man feel that he is
nearer his brother. They serve TO kindle
the extinguishment of the fires of liberty. Ii
Is suggestive of camp, of court, of battlefield,
in all of which you ali took part Ii takes no
stretch of Imagination TO follow in thought all
those mighty hosts that went down in the
years gone by in the din of battle. i can I'M
agine that they are looking down upon US to-
day from over the batflementS of Heaven,
keeping step to the music OF God and liberty.
Much is being done TO blot out the line
Of demarcation between the contending
armies i say that the man who makes the
statement that hate ever existed, entered in
to the heart Of any Union soldier, is base
culminiator. You all know that when the
close to each other and the men, minsling in
social converse, forgot the animosities which
may have existed in the heart of each during
or attempt to create 1t, are scheming politi-
clans, whosubserve their own selfish ends
only. But you know and / know, that the
Union and the Rebel army could never sit

Hell could ever come together, or angels and
devils sit down 10 the supper of the Lord.
