CAMP SHEPLEY
Second Day of the Augusta En-
canpment.
FINE DAY AND INTERESTING
EvOLuTIoNS.-

AUGUSTA, Sept. 19.-Tuesday was a splendid
day for campaigning; the temperature was
genial and the clouds kept the heat of the sun
from becoming oppressive. AT an early hour
columns of smoke were ascending from camp
tires In the rear of the tents of each company
ara the air was laden with the aroma of coffee
and the appetizing odor of cooking steak.
Although the night before had been chilly
and the ground was still damp from recent
showers the surgeons call at 6 80 showed that
the health of the command was excellent and
only Two or three invalids reported at the
hospital tent. There should be little sickness
at Camp Shepley for the situation is a splendid
one in sanitary point of view. The tents are
all provided with board floors and supplied
with abundance of clean. dry straw and every
man has warm wooden blanket.
The roll call showed that there were 659
men present and fit for duty-3ls in the First
Regiment and BAL in the Second. This does
not include the bands. Few companies have
their full complement of men, The Portland
companies all appear with untitled ranks for it
is very difficult for men who are EMPLOYED in
workshops and manufactures to get away at
this season.
AT 10 o'clock the companies came filing out
from their headquarters, and each regiment
was formed into battalion commanded by its
colonel. Some time wSs devoted to battalion
drill, after which the battalions broke into
columns of companies and the remainder of
the forenoon was given up to company evou-
tions. The various companies showed remark.
able proficiency in this drill
At 8 o'clock battalion drill was resumed the
man@uvers OF the battery being especially fine.
The day closed with dress parade in which both
regiments we're consolidated. In the evening
Chandlers Band gave concert in front Of
headquarters.

never having missed casting his ballot for a
Candidate for that Office since his first vote.
Sixty-two of these votes were for governor OF
Maine, the first thirteen having been throws
for governor of Massachusetts, what is now
Maine not having been separated from that
State at that time. Mr.. bennett celebrated his
98th birthday on the 2Sth of August, and is re-
markedly hale for man of his years; he spent
the 7th inst. at York beach, with his daughter,
Mrs. Burnham, and evidently enjoyed the day
as much as any of the young people.
One day week or so ago, Mr.. Benjamin Car
ter of this city, who is himself eighty years old
called at Mr.. Dennett's house in K;ttery to
see relative who happened to be there that
day; and while they were conversing Mr..
bennett looked into the room and and inquired
il the lady wanted him to chop any more wood
She informed him that what he had chopped
that morning was amply sufficient for the day s
use, and introduced the two old gentlemen

THE UNITARIANs.

Their Annual Gathering at Saratoga.
SARATOGA, N. Y, Sept. 19.-The Unitarian
General Conference opened its biennial session
in the Methodist Church this morning with
Gov. John ID. Long of Massachusetts the Pres
ident in the chair. After prayer by Rev.
James Freeman Clarke, Gov. Long made the
opening address, in which, after referring to
the efforts of other denominations of Chris
tians in spreading and branching out in their
work, he spoke of the work before the Unita-
rians in their Conference. A feeling allusion
was made to Rev. DIR. Bellows, who did SO
much to organize the Conference and guide it
in its work, and who has died since the last
session in 1880.
The Standing Committees were appoin ted,
that on business being Robert S. Rantoul of
Salem, Geo. w. Cutter of Buffalo, John Sny-
der of st. Louis, Richard @. Humphreys of
Boston,, Henry A. Willard of Washington,
John M. Gould of New Orleans and Oakes A.
Ames of Boston.
Rev. Grindall Reynolds read the report of
the General Council, in which he gave the
result of the work which had been done
since the organization of this Conference in
1866, whereby the denomination has been led
into concentration of its work. Since The
last session here in 1880, over 5000 have been
raised to build church in Ann Arbor, the
seat of the Michigan University, where ouly
$15 00e we're asked. The effort initiated to
raise $4,000 for the Meadville Theological
Seminary has failed by reason of the efforts
made to remove the school to Cleveland. 1t
is now thought best to ask for $150,000 to en-
dow the Meadville Seminary Tive years ago
it was voted th at $4,000 yearly were needed
for missionary work. While only two-thirds
of that sum has been received it is gratifying
to know that the increase of contributions in
the last year is very large. Rev. A. D. Mayo.
under the auspices of this Conference, has
spent two winters in the South, using his
best efforts to encourage the spread OF the
American idea of common schools there.
Rev. j. Page Hops of Leicester. Eng, a
delegate to this conference from the British
and Foreign Unitarian Associations, read an
essay on Jesus Christ's untitled idea of reljg-
ious unity prefacing it with letters of greet
ing from the North Midland Presbyterian and
Unitarian Association and from the members
of the monthly meeting of Protestant dissent
ing Ministers OF Warwickshire and the neigh
boring counties, which last organization had
DR.. Priesty among its founders a hundred
years ago. The essay was followed by an ad-
dress by DIR. W. B. Carpenter, leading scien-
tist of England, also a delegate to the confer
ence, upon the influence of science on the pro-
sress of religious thought.

DIR. William E. Gorham, Jr., of Windsor
Maine, is about 80 years of age, unmarried, a
Greenbacker and vegetarian. He has not
tasted meat for twelve years nor pork for
eighteen years, enjoys excellent health, and is
pedestrian of considerable note. On the day
Of the Fusion mass meeting at Maranocook,
September 9th, DIR. Gorhsm walked from his
house to the lake, listened to all the addresses,
and then walked back-a distance of 40 miles
He had three horses in his stable, but preferred
to accomr lish the distance on foot He has
walked over country roads 80 miles in 10 hours.
When the walking mania was at its height the
doctor at one time thought seriously OF com
peting in some of the great six days contests,
but abandoned the idea as he considers the
strain of such a match too great to put upon
the human system, without serious conse-
quences eventually resulting from exertion.
