MASSACHUSETTS, DEMOCRATS
In Convention i'm Music Hall, Boston,
Nominate Bonnie Butler for
Governor.
BosToN, Sept 10.

BOSTON,, sept ~.
The democratic State convention met at
lo.l5 TODAY in Music Hall, with large at
tendance of delegates from all parts OF the
commons ealth. In the contests for repre-
sen;ation from ward and l3, of Boston, the
so called regulars were given seats; other
wise. controversies were of little interest. In
calling the convention to order Col. French
introduced David Rideout, of Dunstable,
who, he said, was 50 years old, and has voted
the democratic ticket sc years, and for Gen.
Jackson and every subsequent democratic
candidate for the presidency. and Henry Fay,
of birmingham, So years old, who has voted
the democratic ticket for sc years. Col.
French congratulated the convention on its
numbers and enthusiasm, and made few
suggestions as to what measures it would be
wise for them to adopt.
The usual committees were then appoint
ed by the chair. Hon. John G. Abbott was
then presented to the convention. In his
address he spoke of what he thought were the
duties incumbent on the convention. Dem
ocrats must demand reform in taxation, es-
pecially in reference to the tariff tax for
any other purpose but revenue Is nothing but
robbery. He also denounced political as
sessments.
The resolutions were introduced, and an
animated and disorderly discussion ensued
over the portion given woman the right Of
suffrage, but that clause was finally retained.
The following ticket was then nOminated;
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS +. Butler.
Lieut.. Governor-Samuel w. Bowerman,
of Pittsfield.

FROM WASHINGTON.
Cabinet Meeting.

1t has been decided to hold cabinet meet
ing in the cabinet room of the Executive
Mansion at noon, Wednesday. A thorough
overhauling of the White House is in prog
ress, and although the building generally is
in a forlorn condition, the cabinet room has
been put in readiness for occupancy by the
President and his advisers. The President
did not come to the White House this morn
ing, but his private secretary, Mr.. +. j.
Phillips, was on duty there. OF the Cabinet
officers, Secretaries Folger and Teller are
now in the city, but the former remains at
his residence today not feeling we'll. Secre-
tary Frelinghuysen will arrive this evening,
from Newark, N. j., and Secretary Lincoln
is also expected this evening. Other
Cabinet officers than those mentioned are
expected to be present at the Cabinet meet
ing tomorrow. The Attorney General will
deliver an address before the New York Bar
Association at Albany tomorrow and Secre-
tary Chandler is detained in Concord.
President Arthur to Visit Maine Again.
President Arthur visited the Executive
Mansion this afternoon and examined the
improvements in progress there. No public
business of sufficient Importance to justify
calling a special meeting of the Cabinet, and
it is believed the President merely wishes to
learn the condition of affairs before leaving
for ten days trip in Maine and New Hamp-
shire which he will probably do tomorrow or
Thursday morning if nothing should tran
spire requiring his attention for longer
period. He will probably spend the first
few days in October in Concord, N. II.
Notice to Mariners.
Notice is given by the light house board
that on and after October LIST, 1882. the light
from the Eastern Point Lighthouse in the en-
trance to Gloucester harbor, Mass, will
show a red flashing light instead of fixed
red as now shown. The interval between
the flashes will be five seconds.

Melville's DesertiOn of his Wife.

II is sad circumstance attending the re-
turn Of Melville, the intrepid Artic explorer,
that he has deserted his wife and she has be-
come in consequence lunatic. The cause
of this deserton is mystery, but enough is
known to make certain that it grew out of
former difficulty between Melville and his
wife. A reporter of the Philadelphia Press
says in an article dated the 18th
Mrs. Melville was seen at Sharon Hill this
evening and told the following story NY

where-never to return. Gone without one
word Of explanation as to why he deserted
me-" do I understand you to say Mrs.

house last night, refused to remain here, and
cursed me before he went. It's too terrible.
1t will kill me it will kill me. But l will
tell you everything, though my heart is
breaking, and feel that l am going mad
When Mr.. Melville had greeted his children
Saturday night on the porch he came to me.

alone. He came in and l said to him oh.
George, am glad to see you. Are you not
glad to get back and see me?' And then
l kissed him but he made no
reply, and his arms hung limp at his
side. Then Meta caught him by
the hand and said, kiss me again, papa, Tn

and exclaimed in an angry manner. "Who
taught you to say that" Then said; ..Oh,
George, don't talk so, some one will hear
you, the house is full of your friends. Let
Us 60 into to the parlors and receive Them
They are no friends of mine." he replied
ssThey are your friends, not mine," an
swered, aud led him into the parlors. But
one or two of the guests had heard his grufi
greeting and were greatly astonished. Shortly
aferwards he seized his hat and left the
house. saying that he would end the matter

The soldier boys regard their annual
muster very much in the light of holiday
affair. II is pleasant for them to meet
yearly at the State capital, ana providing
the weather is favorable the regular drill
and duties of camp are enjoyable. But
the muster has another side of more Sc
rious and utilitaran character. The reg
ular army of the United States is limited
to force of %, 900 men. This number is
only sufficient for police duty in time of
peace, and to form the nucleus of mill
tary organization in case of war The
men that were hurried to the front at the
breaking out of the rebellion were from
the citizen soldiery, who had been trained
upon State muster fields in the rudments
Of arms. 1t was found when they en-
tered the service that their teaching and
drill at home were of great benefit to
them. so that they soon became well
drilled soldiers. as reliable and effective
in actual war as regulars. 1t is for emer-
gencies like that that our State militia
are organized and trained. 1t has been
proved that this is not money lost but a
great saving of money. Without this our
government would be obliged to keep
large standing army, as most of the
Europeans do, the expense of which would
be enormous. Some persons complain that
the State musteris useless expense. butthe
opinion of the great majority of the peo-
pie. founded and moulded in the expe-
rience which the country has had in every
war from the earliest days of the republic
is that the organization and training of the
State militia are of the greatest impor-
lance in n government like ours, and
ought not to be neglected
