at the top of his voice the
nomination by the Fifth corps of
General U. s. Grant Cheers and cries Of
Grant" Grant" "Vote" "Newtonl"
Grant" for some minutes made it impossi-
BILE for any one to hear a score Of gentlemen
who were on their feet to be heard. Then
followed a running discussion as to General
Grants eligibility. Some one from the
stage declared he was an honorary member
voice from the audience replied: He has
not paid his dues" Another called out,
For fourteen years he declined to become a
member of our society; why burden him
with this honor now?
Finally, General Humphreys gained atten-
ton, and naively suggested "If remember
rightly General Grant, at one time, was in
timately associated with the army of the Po-
tomac, near the close of the war. think he
is clearly eligible, if you choose to elect
him."
This was received with shouts of laughter
and applause from all quarters, and it was
moved to proceed to ballot.
General Mann then arose and stated that,
after consultation with several of his asso-
ciates of the Sixth corps, as there seemed to
be general desire to elect General Grant, he
would withdraw the name of General New
ton. This was the signal for renewed com.
motion, accompanied by cries of Good, J"
and Don't withdraw" which was height
ened when General Barnum, of Connecticut
in ringing tones announced that he would
withdraw the name of General Grant.
Voice-What right have you to with
draw him?
General Barnum-As presiding officer of
the Fifth corps at their meeting to-day, and
because l know personally that General
Grant, though he was thought not unworthy
to command us at Appomattox, does not de
sire onerous duty in these piping times of
peace, and would not permit his name to be
the subject of controversy. If there be a
single objection, 1 withdraw his name.
The president being unable to make him
self heard, General Horatio c. King, the
secretary, essayed to straighten out matters,
and finally the nominations of Generals
Grant and Newton were renewed, and the
balloting proceeded. After the appointment
of several committees the result of the ballot
ing for president was announced as follows;
General Newton, 1856; General Grant, III;
scattering 7. General Newton's election was
made unanimous and, with the exception of
president, the old officers were reelected.
Brooklyn was selected as the place for the
next reunion of the society, and the meeting
adjourned.

Years forever consecrated, here he lived where
duties be,
Never crying on the climate or the tolls mono

Here his darling boy he buried, and the night in

Like his Lord within the garden, when the tired

How his call for men went ringing round the
world, mighty belll
AND the races of creation came the proud revolt
to quell!
Worn and mornful grew his features in the flash
of battle lights.
Once, like Moses from the mountain, looked he
on the realm he won
When the slaves in burning Richmond knelt and
thought him Washington,
Then an envious bravo snatched him from the
theater of things,
To become saint of nature In the Pantheon OF
kings.
Faded are the golden chevrons, vanished is the
Mild in heaven his moral glory fingers like the
morning star,
And the rreeman's zone of cotton his white spirit
seems to be,
And the insects, in the harvest, boat his army's
reveille.
All around him spoiled or greedy, women vain
and honor speut,
Still his faith in human nature lived without dis

Not till wealth has made its oanker every poor

DUBLIN, May 16.-A meeting of the Ma

member of parliament for Cavan, in speech,
said that anything coming from the Pope
should be received with much respect by the

press their opinions in plain, but inoffensive
terms. Biggar said he was not suited for

government which, he declared, was
the worst that ever ruled over Ire
land. He said that the Papal circular
applied only to the clergy and not to the
laity at all. He thought it might be desira-
bic to send deputation to Rome to explain
to the Pope the true condition of affairs in
Ireland. Sexton said the Irish people were
sorry to lose the valuable services of the
clergy, but that with or without these allies,
the movement must go on. His speech was
greeted with cheers

The Cincinnati Shoemalxers' Reasons for
Locking Out the Workmen.
CINCINNATI, May 16-The shoe manufac-
turers held a meeting to-day and adopted
resolutions giving their version of the cause
of the lockout, which, they say, is forced
opon them by the action of the union men.
They say that under the present situation OF
affairs it is impossible to submit the matter
to arbitration unless the men who have quit
work will go back and resume the positions
they held before they quit work They
therefore give notice that their shops are
open for any workmen not directly shut out
under the operation of the terms of the arbi-
tration agreement. This means that all non
union men as well as all union men not
members of the assemblies that belong to the
arbitration board, are at liberty to work in
these shops

How Joe Brady Died.

DubIlh special
At the foot of the scaffold Brady turned
to the warden and said Take the book"
He never uttered another word, but slowly,
deliberately, without apparent falter,
mounted the eight steps leading to the drop,
Canon Kennedy keeping by his side and
Marwood with the leg straps in his kand. A
moment more and he stood on the fatal
plank. Only when Marwood went to place
the moose round his neck did he finch. He
jerked his head suddenly on one side but
recovered himself in a second. Exactly on
the stroke Of eight Marwood touched the
lever. Death was instantaneous, the verte-
brie of the neck being literally mashed to
pieces The length OF the drop being eight
feet eleven inches, the effect of this on the
neck of Il man who weighed fourteen stone,
can easily be imagined. Marwocd stated
that he never hanged criminal who gave
him less trouble or anxiety or displayed

An Exciting but Good-Natured Contest Over
the Selection of Officers.
WASHINGTON, May 16-The general bust
ness meeting of the society was held this af-
ternoon, and after the transaction of routine
matters, President Humphries announced as
the next business in order the election of of
icers for the ensuing year. Up to this point
perfect order and unanimity had marked the
proceedings. The scene, however, which en-
sued, and the discussion which took place in
the course of the next three-quarters of an
hour, recalled most wildly the closing hours
of the Forty-ffth Congress. Motions and
amendments calls of order, appeals to the
chair which the chair could not hear, or, if
hearing, could not make himself heard
in reply, followed each other in
rapid succession. The best of
good feeling, however, appeared
to prevail, and each gentleman who strug-
gled to make himself heard above the uproar
seemed to be burdened with the idea that he
was about to. submit the one proposition
which would cut the gordian knot and re-
leve his unfortunate comrades from the
perplexities into which they had fallen.
Nominations for president having been de-
clared in order, General s. II. Mann, of

DO Sharks Bitcc

A man who used to be a petty Of
ficer in the United States navy said ::
sailors know whether sharks bite or
not. If they didn't they wouldn't
hate them so. Why, it isn't in the
nature of sailor to be cruel to any
dumb brute; but shark gets no mer-
cy from them, for they know that
they'd get no mercy from it if it got a
chance at them. You'd know some-
thing of how they feel toward shark
if you could see them haul one aboard.
They'll torture it to death if they are
allowed, digging out its eyes with
their knives, jabbing marlingspikes
into it, ripping it open, and all that.
The worst thing I ever saw played on
shark was done to very large one
that had followed us for several days,
and that the men got an idea was
waiting for somebody to fall over
board. Some of them even had the
notion that it might charm a man
over. It wouldn't take hook, though
it would dart at and instantly swallow
anything that fell into the water un-
attached to line, and it always kept
just out of the way of harpoons. 1t
was as cunning and voracious as if it
were real devil, and some of the
men were afraid to go aloft for fear of
tumbling over to it. Some way had
to be devised to get rid of it, and the
way was found. They took a solid
shot, heated it in the furnaces almost
to white heat, wrapped it in some
rags and skelp of meat, and hove it
overheard. 1t hardly touched the
water, that shark jaws were there so
promptly to receive and down it. And
then the circus began, just as quick as
the shark got the sensation of the
warmth of the bite he had gulped.
You never in your life saw such cavor-
tin around in the water. He'd lash
the water into foam all around him.
Then he'd dart his whole length clear
out of the water straight up into the
air, and he would go straight down
the Lord only knows how deep. But
this didn't last long. He soon stretched
himself belly up, and was quiet
The idea that sharks will bite swim
mers must be pretty prevalent in the
navy, for it is customary in tropical
countries, when they want the men to
have bath, to lower bagged sail
from the end of the yard into the sea
and let them go down in that, where
the sharks cannot get at them, for a
wash IN. Y. Sun.

microscopic Objects.

When vision Is not aided by any
magnifying process, there is a point
of minuteness, as all know, when an
object will make no Impression upon
the retina, and will rot be seen by the
unaided eye. But when the object is
viewed by means of microscope, it
becomes visible There is question,
however, tat remains unanswered,
wG:..ooia is, whether any object may be-
come so attenuated that it cannot be
made visible by any means. Not
many years ago, less probably than
twenty-five, there were lines that
could not be resolved by any micro
scopic lenses then in existence, which
can be exhibited now without any
difficulty; but at that time makers of
lenses had not attained to the skill of
making them with large angles of
aperture, but now they are made with
the highest angle that is possible, and
consequently the capacity of such OBJ
jectives can only be increased by
greater skill in their manufacture.
But the limit of angle of aperture
having been reached, no opportunity
remaining of increasing capacity in
that direction-is is not reasonable to
suppose that, with present appliances,
no greater skill in manufacture can
be expected? Sir Royston Pigott, re-
Gently, at a meeting of the R. M. S.,
stated that he had seen globules of
mercury, made by smashing a minute
particle of mercury with a watch
spring, less than one one-hundredth
of one ten-tbousandth of an inch, or
less than the millionth of an inch.
Another member replied that he was
not aware that there is any limit of
visibility in the microscope other than
that imposed by the sensibility of the
observers retina, the correction the
objective, and the illumination.-[T The
