The reunion Of ex-soldiers at Cincin-
natl. Saturday, nth inst, was failure.
It was to have been a State reunion. and
at least 100. 600 visitors were expected.
1t had also been intended to turn the
affair into q boosting machine for Gov.
Foster. But there were less than 10000
visitors, and the procession numbered
less than 5000. A letter to the New
York Herald, from Cincinnati, says: 81
find an increasing feeling among think
ing men that reunions other than merely
regimental and brigade should be discon-
tinued. The South seems willing now,
more than it ever has been, to become
part of our business and social world,
and to have the story Of the war and all
the bitterness revived constantly is re-
cognized by many as bad policy. Par
ticularly is this the case at Cincinnati,
lust on the border between the two old
sections. where $20.0OO.OOO have just
been expended in cultivating friendly
business relations with the South by
means Of Southern railroad

A rascal named Wagner has, it ap-
pears, perpetrated curious swindle in
MARYLAND, the success of which seems to
show that the law of that State might
be improved in some particulars. His
mode of operation was very simple. 1t
consisted merely in bringing thousands
of suits against men of property, in
which he claimed damages, although he
had in fact no cause of action against
the defendants of any kind whatever.
The defendants-an this is perhaps the
most remarkable part of the story-are
said to have taken no notice of the pro-
ceedings because they regarded them as
a sort of huge practical joke on Wagner's
part. AS soon as they were in default,
the plaintiff, who was lawyer and
managed his own business, entered
Judgment against them for
the sums demanded. In this
way he got judgment against responsible
defendants amounting altogether to a
gigantic sum. Still the defendants did
not move in the matter, and in year
the time for taking an appeal expired,
so that the courts could no longer inter
fere. They were resorted to, but in
vain, and Wagner is said to have imme.
diately retained counsel in New York
Qheir names are not given and proceed
ed to enforce his judgments. If this
story is true, it certainly presents an ex
traordinary picture. In this State, and
in all States in which complaints have to
be verified under oath, such swindle
would never be attempted by any sane
man, as it would expose him to imme-
date prosecution for perjury.

Philadelphia is fearful of another cpl
demic of smallpox. For lack of funds,
and probably from want of official ener-
gy, also, there have been no free vacci-
nations since the middle of April. Since
January LIST there have been 1926 cases
of the disease, of which 1, 122 ended ia.
tally. Latterly the number of sick have
largely increased. There were over 6, 000
cases last year. the cost of which in
money is estimated at $50 each, or $780,
600 in all to the tax payers. In 1S71-72,
by similar neglect. the city was overrun
by the disease. and the deaths were num-
bered by thousands.

Several Republican Senators claim
that the Republicans in the United
States Senate can prevent the Democrats
from electing President pro TEN. by
refusing to vote. There are but thirty
eight Democratic Senators, including
David Davis, whereas it takes thirty
nine, or one more than half the members
of the entire body, to constitute a
quorum. 1t is not probable that
majority of the Republican Senators
can be induced to resort to such revolu.
tionary tactics.

When President takes the oath of
Office 1t is the custom to present him an
open Bible to be kissed. The words up.
on which the lips of President Arthur
fell were the first and second verses of
the thirty-frst psalm:
Gin Thee. o Lord, do 1 put my trust;
let me never be ashamed: deliver me in
Thy Righteousness.
"BoW down Thine ear to me; deliver
me speedily; be Thou my strong rock,
for an house of defense to save me.

On March Sd last, the day before his
inauguration as President, the late Mr..
Garfield delivered brief speech before
his college classmates at a private re-
union. 1t was not published until long
after the great crime of July I'd. In
tone it was sad and sombre, almost as If
a presentiment of danger had visited the
speaker. 1t is as follows:
"CLAssMATEs-To me, there is some
thing exceedingly pathetic in this re-
union. In every eye before me l see the
light of friendship and love, and am
sure it is reflected back to each one of
you from my Utmost heart. For twenty.
two years, with the exception of the last
few days, have been in the public
service. Tonight, am private citi-
zen. Tomorrow, shall be called to
assume new responsibilities, and
on the day after the
broadside Of the worlds wrath will
strike. 1t will strike hard. l know
it, and you will know it. Whatever
may happen to me in the future, shall
feel that can always fall back upon the
shoulders and hearts of the class of 90
for their approval of that which is right,
and for their charitable judgment where
in may come short in the discharge of
my public duties. You may write down
in your books now the largest percentage
of blunders which you think / will be
likely to make, and you will be sure to
find in the end that l have made more
than you have alculated-many more.
"This honor comes to me unsought. l
have never had the Presidential fever
not even for day; nor have | it to-
night. l have no feeling of citation in
view of the position am called upon to
fill. l would thank God were to- day a
free lance in the House or the Senate.
But it is not to be, and will go forward
to meet the responsibilities and discharge
the duties that are before me with all
the firmness and ability can command.
l hope you will be able conscientiously
to approve my conduct, and when re-
turn to private life wish you to give
me another class meeting"
