A BRILLIANT AFFAIR.
Meeting OF the Grand Army OF the Re.
public at Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, June 2I.-The city is pro-
fusely decorated to-day in honor OF the
Grand Army of the Republic. The streets
and houses along the line of march were
filed with people anxious to witness the
grand parade. The Presidential party, Gen.
eral Sherman and Speaker Keifer arrived
and were escorted to the mayors reception
room at the city hall, where they were well
coined by the governor, mayor and many
prominent citizens. The President and party,
who had been joined by General Sherman,
held quite levee at the city hall. The line
of parade commenced forming about $50
o'clock. The first military division
of the column, under General j. r.
Herbert, formed on Broadway, the
night resting on Canton avenue. The
second division, under command of General
George T. Merrill, commandments Of
the Grand Army OF the Republic, formed on
Lombard street, west, the right resting on
Broadway; and the third division, consisting
of the other departments, headed by Maine,
formed on Lombard street, east, the right
resting on Broadway. The entire column
was under command of General Romeyn B.
Ayres, eff the United States army. The line
OF march was from Broadway along Balti-
more street to Eutaw, to Franklin, TO How
ard, TO Monument, to Charles, to Fsyette, to
Calvert, to Lexington, to Holiday, to the
front of the city hall, where the column
was reviewed by President Arthur, Secretary
of-War Lincoln and General Sherman After
passing the city hall the column proceeded
down Holiday street TO Exchange Place, q
few blocks distant, where it was dismissed.
The line occupied little over an hour in
passing the point of review. The distance of
the march was about three miles and half,
and there were probably 1000 men in line.
The sixteenth annual session of the
National Encampment of the Grand Army
of the Republic was called to order at
O'Clock in the Academy of Music by Mr..
Merrill, with Colonel VIM. NJ. Olin, adjutsut-
general, and Alfred c. Monroe, assistant.
The roll-call and the reading of the record
was dispensed with. The reports of the
officers were ,alled for and the committees
appointed, after which the convention ad-
journed until Thursday. The reports are all
encouraging, the order having been specially
prosperous in Ohio and Illinois. The ex-
Union soldiers in the West are taking
increased interest in the Grand Army and
inquiring into Its purposes. New posts have
been installed in Kentucky, Tennessee, North
Carolina, South Carolina and Texas. The
encampment has $4,000 on hand, $4,000 in
vested in United States bonds, and other
assets amounting in all to over Sl2, 900. The
order now numbers 100, 900 members in good
the increase being $1,000 for the
past year.

GENERAL Hurst, prominent Mississippi
Republican,, in the course of an interview
with reporter of the Washington Critic,
speaks slightingly and disparagingly Of Gen
eral Chalmers, and denounces him as "liar
and bypocrite." However much Democrats
may differ with the latter none OF them will
agree that such epithets can apply TO gen.
tleman who, in peace as in war, has borne
himself with the pride that becomes his
social position, and has maintained the title
to the peoples confidence which was SO long
implied IN various Ligh and dIgnined Of
fetal positions. Gen raj Chalmers is wrong
in his present attitude of opposition to the
Democratic party, and we believe the people
will at the fail elections make him under
stand that he is wrong by electing him to
stay at hone, bat he is not 'liar" nor a
"nypocrite.n

WAsHINGToN. June 2l.-Ths House Com
mittee on Pacific Railways to-day heard fur
ther argument on RepresentatIve r Lynch
bill to aid in the construction of a project.
railway and levee of the Memphis and New
Orleans Railway and Levee Company. Thi-
bill is based on the proposition made by the
Memphis and New Orleans Railway and
Levee Company, incorporated under the laws
of Tennessee, Mississippi aad Louisiana, to
build and operate railroad from Memphis
by way of Vicssburg, TO New Orleans, and
FOR this end to build from the high land IN
Tennessee TO the west bank of the Yazoo
river, and along and as near the east banL
OF the Mississippi river as is consistent with
convenience, permanencs and safety Of the
levee upon which to lay the road. L
provides that upon tie completion of a
line connected and compact levees along
the route which will protect the county from
overflow by the waters of the Mississippi
river, and the construction and equipment
thereon of a Grst-class standard gauge rail
way of steel rails, the United States shall
paw the semi annual interest sccruing for the
first five years. and guarantee the payment
OF interest TO accrue thereafter upon the first
mortgage bonds, to be issued by the company
to the amount of $4,000 per mile, upon that
portion of its road built upon said levee;
said bonds to mature fifty years after date,
and to bear interest from date, pay able semi
annually at the rate of four per cent. an
nually; provided, that the location of the
line of said railway and levee, and the di-
m, nsions thereof shall be approved by the
Mississippi River Commission
Van Voorhis states that Mr.. Reagan knew
when he presented the report it was not the
identical bill agreed on in committee; that
Reagan told Mr.. Hewitt he had altered the
bill on consultation with Van Voorhis. 1t
was supposed Reagan's committee was salts
fed with his action. The bill as passed diff
fers from the one agreed upon by the Com
mittee on Commerce in substance, only in
presenting that feature of the bill which
permitted the sending back of paupers and
criminals to the countries whence the come.
The arguments 10 day were by C. p Hunt
iugton, General Thomas Ewing and J. Hale
Sypher in favor of the passage of the bill.
They asserted the building aud maintenance
of such levee will diminish the expendi-
ture now required for channel improvements
between Memphis and Vicksburg, and earn
estly indorsed the platform of the bill, which
states that the levee will redeem from over
flow the delta between the Yszoo river and
Mississippi, thus removing obstruction to
commerce between adjacent States, which
sre now to a large extent cut off from direct
intercommunicalion by railway.

Ballot Amid Great
Rejoicing.

Speeisl to the Appeal
NASHVILLE, June 21.-The Democrat
Convention, after several adjournuepts au'
without transacting any important business
got regularly at work at2 o'clock pm.
Chairman Patterson announced that tn
Committee on Resolutions and Platform
would be ready TO report in fifteen minutes
and suggested that the recess be extended TO
that time.
Loud calls were made for Senator Bailey
and in answer that gentleman appeared a
the stand and made a short speech, request
ing the privilege of expressing his viewl
when the committee reported.
Loud calls followed for General w. B
Bate, but before that gentleman could re.
of Davidson, arose and demanded that the
chairman call the convention to order, which
was done.
Mr.. Wrenne then offered the following
resolution, moving its adoption on a call by
counties:
Resolved, That the delegates TO this conven-
tion do hereby pledge themselves to abide by
the convention, both as to the nominee
selected and The platform adopted.
Senator Bailey arose to a point of order,
but was interrupted by loud calls OF 'Put
il" Il second it,"
General Luke E. Wright, OF Shelby, arose
to a point of order, and said: Every
member is presumed to be loyal to
the party. They had been selected
by local conventions of Democrats, and
such a resolution was a reflection
on the good faith of the convention. During
The war oaths of loyalty were necessary to
bind people. When such action as this be-
came necessary Democratic ties became ex-
tremely loose"
Mr.. T. NJ. Mcdonnell, of Hamilton, made
he point that a resolution had been adopted
hat all resolutions should go to the COM
niitee on Platforms and Resolutions.
The resolution was tabled.
The Committee on Platform then re-
ported. Minority reports were also pre-
,entId.
As presented, the msjority report recon-
nended fifty-and-three and fifty and four, ard
he abatement of the war interest. The
latter clause was stricken out in order to try

platform, was stormy, but il was put through
BY big majority.

Second Dispatch .

Special to the Appeal
NASHVILLE, June 21.-To the surprise of
many OF the most knowing ones, the conven-
Iion to-day adopted a platform settling the
debt of the State at if y, with three per cent.
interest. This settlement does not include
the State debt proper, which is to be paid in
full, but refers to the bonds issued 10 rail-
roads. The majority report, which was
written by Colonel NJ. C Galloway, of the
Sub Committee on Platform and Rsso-
lutions, was adopted, excepting THAT
section which referred to the settle
ment of the State debt. The committee
reported in favor of fifty cents, with three per
cent. interest for ten years and tour per cent.
interest until maturity. The convention,
sfier a heated debate, amended the report,
and made it read three per cent. clear
through. Notwithstanding the instructions
received by the Shelby county delegates, they
voted solidly against the amendment, but
the convention took the "bit in its teeth" SO
to speak, and adopted the low rate of interest
So much for instructions. The Shelby dele
gates feared the result of such platform, but
now the thing "am done and it can't
be helped" The convention even went SO
far as to repudiate the war interest on the
bonds, but at the night session reconsidered
its action. Several State credit men with
drew from the convention after the platform
had been adopted, among the most promi-
nent of whom were Ex-senator James Z
Bailey, of Montgomery; E. A. James, of
Hamilton; d. D. Bell, of Obion; Hugh An
derson, of Madison; Luke E. Wright, of
Shelby; n. H Ingersoll, of Knox; General
W. II, Jackson, of Davidson, and
D. B. Cooper, OF Maury. These gen.
tlemen, together with the delegates who
withdrew to the number of not less ian
sixty, and some say 100, will meet in
the Senate chamber tomorrow morning at
$50 o. clock.
General w. B. Bate was nominated for
governor on the fifth ballot.
Albert T. Mcneil succeeds Colonel w. Fl.
Carroll as the member of the State Execu-
tive Committee from the Tenth district
Shelby county voted almost solidly for Bate
on all the ballots. Several of the delegation
left for home tonight. The remainder will
follow tomorrow.

A SUGGESTION comes to us that the COM
pletion of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad
should be made the occasion OF celebration
of some sort by the business men of Mem
phiF, to which the people of the country
through which This read passes ought to be
invited. The Cotton Exchange, in connection
with the officers OF the road, could, ii they
would, make pleasant affair of this sort.
The Chesapeake is one Of the longest lues OF
