DURYEE'S ZOUAVES.

The surviving members OF the old Fifth New York
Volunteers, better known in this city and during the
"Duryces Zousves." held a meeting last
evening at the Seventh Regiment Armory, it being
the anniversary OF the battle of Manassas Plains
second battle Of Bull Run. General
Abram Duryee. the president of the organi-
zation. presided. and. after the transaction Of
some routine business. called attention to the
anniversary of a day fraught with many sorrow
full yet glorious memories TO the veterans Of the
old regiment. On that terrible day the Fifth New
York went into engagement scarcely four hundred
strong. and. being compelled to withstand tho
charge OF entire Confederate brigade, fought so
tenaciousiy that they held the ground assigned
them. but II WAS ut the cost OF hundred and
sixty killed and wounded. The General also men,
toned the interesting fact that few weeks ago no
had visited this bloody field. in company with
New York member of the Henry family. aud passed
an hour or two in the old Henry house, in front OF
which the old Fifth had fought desperately.
HIS remarks listened to by the mem
bers with emotion for many OF those present
remembered the day and the hour when the
Zouaves Uttered the battle field with their crimson
uniforms. This veteran organization IL rapidly gaiu-
ing strength and II Is proposed to organize per-
manent fund for the relief OF the sick and see that
deceased members receive an honorable burial
Nearly one hundred of the Zou-Zous are enrolled.
and il is expected that in few months every living
member OF this glorious regiment will have his
name on tho roll. 1t Is remarkable fact that Cen
erals Duryce Warren, Davies, Fitzpatrick, Hamblin
and others held commissions In this resment.

The Religious Aspect Of Matthew
ArnOlds Poetry.

Mr.. George S. Merriam contributes
to the June ScRlDNER a study Of Mat.
thew Arnold's verse. in so far as it is
representative of "the unanswered
questionings which makes the tragedy
of the intellectual lite Of this age" In
summing up Mr.. Alnolt's position, he
says:
We have said that Mr.. Arnold's
poetry and prose there are traceable a
strongly marked unity and a steady
growth. The sentiment that links the
poetry to the prose is found In the
closing poem, in which the author is
hidden by the sympathetic spirit Of
Obermann TO give bis remaining
strength TO help attain the end
Zone common wave of thought and joy,
Lifting mankind again.
The prose writings of his later
years are an attempt in this direction.
Without discussing the soundness
of his interpretations Of the Bible, it is
enough here to point out that he finds
in religion the greatest hope OF the
human race, and that bis conception
of religion lays supreme stress on con-
duct and character. Reduced to an
intellectual form, his later creed
might not seem greatly to differ from
his earlier one. But the spirit and
temper are different. Instead Of inso'
lation there is an effort TO serve. There
is the recognition that Christ had the
secret of life; the perception that the
deepest truth embodied in Christ is
untouched by all the new discoveries
of thought the sence that joy and
peace are not lost treasures Of the an.
cient world. There is the conscious
ness that moral fidelity finds its trust
and broadening hope.
The new and larger life breaking
upon the world, like the sunrise upon
the Alps, is not to be measured by
Mr.. Arnold's creed, Or by any creed
new or old. Fashion our theories
and doctrines as wisely as We can,
they very impertectly express the
great realities, Of which we may have
consciousness deeper than our specu-
lations. The common wave of thought
and JOY" whose uplift is felt by brave
hearts. is much more than a new in
trepretation Of history or religious
philosophy. 1t includes all the great
onward movement of manklnd-mixed
it is true, and fucluating, yet pulsa.
ting now with new intensity and new
elation. To it belongs all the half
articulate aspirations OF classes and
nationalities, all social reforms, all
strenuous and successful studies of
nature, all resolute inquiry into dis.
tinctively religious truth. To this
same onward movement especially be
