GEN. FERGUsON's
Appointneut 10 Succeed Capt. Eads on
the Riyer Cemmissien.

Concerning the appointment of Gen. Fer
guson as a member of the Mississippi River
Commission, the Washington correspondent
of the st. Louis Globe. Democrat telegraphs
his paper as follows:
"This appointment hss caused some sur
prise among Mississippi river people here,
as it was thought Col. Flsd, OF ST. Louie,
would be the successful candidate. Capt.
Ferguson's friends, including the senators
and representatives from his State, worked
earnestly for him. Ex-senator Bruce was
untiring in his behalf, but he probably owes
mis- appointment largely TO the social infa-
assistant United States fab commis-
sioner, who is quite wealthy, and
commands high social position here. He
also had the support of Senators Hampton
and Butler, of South Carolins, who were
probably able TO turn the scale in his favor.
They have both been here and personally in
terceded for him. The President, in looking
the case over, seemed inclined TO think that
Capt. Sutsr represented the interests of St.
Louis sufficiently, and that the appointment
ought really to be given to the man who was
identified with the interests of the people OF
the lower Mississippi. Mr.. Ferguson is an ac-
conplishsd engineer, and has besn
member of the Mississippi Levee
Board for a number Of years. He ia
levee man in every sense OF the word, and
is thoroughly committed in favor of Miseis-
sippi river Improvements. He graduated at
West Point in 1857, but resigned from the
army on the 1st of March, 1861, TO GO into
the Confederacy, and reached the grade. of
m.jor-general in the Confederst army. He
is Democrat, although not politician. 1t
is said that Flad knew of Eads's intended
reEigs alton and worked his influence In adj
vance, and that this prejudiced his case be-

Prayer was adopted and the matter referred
to the Evangelical Alliance.
The foriy-siKlh annual report of tbs Board
OF Foreign Missions, a pamphlet Of l79
pages, was read by the Rev. DR.. Marvin r.
Vincent, oil New York. Ii pays tribute 10
the memories CT the Hon. Wm. L. Dodge
and Mrs. Julia NJ. Graham. The receipts
from all sources, Including last years bal
ance, were S656, 237; expenditures, $685., go;
balance against tue board, SIS, 1888. Not
withdrawing the gratifying increase in the
receipts, an encouraging tact stated Is that the
years income represents 1852 churches, the
largest number ever reported, aud still
greater liberaliiy on the part OF women's
boards. The bosrd has in charge 159 Ameri-
can and niuety-two native ordained mission
aries, besides 133 native licestiate lay mis-
sionaries, twenty-one male and 265 female
Americans aud 2S5 natives OF both sexes,
In the mission schools toere arc q, 253
pupils. Reports from TIE mIAsion stations
are all encouraging. The report, speaking
Of the Indian mission, declared that the
greatest hindrance was the corrup,lons and
fraud perp.trsted upon the red men by the
the agents Of the United States government,
and called for efforts srou.ing the national
Conscience to the great wrong. It calls for
the raising of 100000 the coming year, AID
nominates the Rev. DIR. Marvin r. Vincent
as successor in the board to tie Hon. w. E.
Dodge, deceased.
The report was accepted and the assembly
was addressed by the Rev. David Irving,
corresponding secretary.
Elder Edward Wells, Wettchester Pfesby-
terry, said that the amount expended the past
year by the Presbyterian Church in the ten
tribes con6ded TO its care, was less than one
third the salary paid the president of the
New York Life Insurance Company. Ii does
attempt to awaken discrimination in Indian
minds between the soldiers Of the cross and
the hordes who rob the Indians OF lands and
class them az to be eIterminsted along with
the buffalo and grizzly besr.
Addresses we're also made by the treasurer,
Vim. Rankin; the Rev. E. J. Adams, Knox
Presbytery, returned librarian; the Rev E
c. MILF, Synod of China; the Rev. DIR. Her
rick Johnson, the Rev. II. H. Rice, Sscra-
mento, aud the Rev. Joseph P. Graham,
Kolpoor Presbytery, India.
Elder Thomas Mcclellan, Philadelphia,
said there is 100000 called for. Where ia
it to be had? Let tue ministers ask The
churches, and it will come. The report Was
adopted, and Moderator Hatfield announced
The following committee to wait on President
Arthur relative TO establishing civil govern

Mr. CARLISLE, of Kentucky, candidate for
the Speakership, is satisfied with the tariff
clause of the platform OF the Democrats Of
that State. He says: "Instead Of uuder-
taking to formulate a new declaration OF
opinion upon the tariff question the conven-
ton indorsed and reaf6rmed the platforms
adopted at st. Louis in 1875 and st Cinciu-
natl in 1880. 10 my judgment these plat
forms, so far as they relate to the tariff, are
as pertinent now as they were at the time of
their adoption, and think the Democracy
of Kentucky sced wisely in adhering 10
them as they stand, leaving the national
organization to determine what changes, if
auy, shall be made in their phriseolosy.
Whatever othsrs may see proper to do, sn
cure the Democracy OF this State will never
consent 10 repudi ate the spirit and meaning
of lhs declaration upon which We carried
the country in 1876, and made the uusuccess.

of the frat ones had not yet arrived, the

with their knapsicks upon their shoulders.
They had the appearance Of veterans, and
their drill with the knapsscks was = new

gramne when the bugle called them off.
The Mobile Rifles were the next to drill,
