The National Relief Corps Convention.

The National Relief Corps Convention.
1t was decided at the Denver conference,
last summer, that the second National Con-
vention of the Woman's Relief Corps should
be held simultaneously with the National
Encampment of the Grand Army at Mime
apoIis, and Mrs. President Barker has issued
an order in accordance with this agreement,
announcing Wednesday and Thursday, July
23d and oath as the time of meeting. Some
details still remain to be looked after, but
it has been decided to establish National
Headquarters at the West Hotel, where
reception viii be held by the national Off
GERS on the Tuesday evening preceding the
convention.
1t is to be hoped that there will be full
attendance of delegates, and that every State
in which the Order has gained foothold
will be represented. In the few months
that have elapsed since national organize
ton was effected, the growth of the Order,
despite the difficulties and embarrassments
with which it has had to contend, has been
something phenomenal. By the time the
convention meets it is thought probable
that fully fifteen permanent Departments
viii have been formed, irrespective of the
Corps, that, pending their organization into
Departments, are directly attached to Ma
tional Headquarters, so that there can be no
doubt as to the solidity of the union
effected at Denver. IN fact owing to the
time necessarily required to formulate a
plan of work and procure the necessary
printing supplies, new Corps have applied
for admission more rapidly than they could
be mustered, and as soon as all the Depart
ments are in good working order they will
undoubtedly multiply much faster. The
enthusiasm with which the loyal women of
the country rallied to the support of the
Order at the outset, and the ardor with
which they entered into the work of placing
it on secure foundation, have been fully
justified by the results, and we look to the
National Convention, through the wise de-
alterations OF the delegates, to ratify their
action.
We trust that no attempt viii be made to

1T Is curious coincidence that a num-
Der Of the leading Democratic journals Of
the country should have republished stimuli
taneously On Saturday last the anti-war
speech delivered by the Hon. Thomas F.
Baysrd at the meeting Of secessionists held
at Dover. Del. in july, 1861, and it can only
be accounted for on the supposifion that il
was done for the purpose Of destroying the
Senator'S chances Of obtaining the presi-
dental nomination at Chicago 1t is true
that the New York San affects to believe
that the sentiments to which he then gave
expression are not inconsistent with a belief
in Mr.. Bayard's loyalty to the Union, but it
is evident from the pains which it takes to
point ont the disloyal passages in his speech
that it i not sincere in its defense Of the
Delaware statesman. Indeed, II admits that
the most casual examination OF Mr. Bay
ards remarks al Dover viii show that he
was utterly and entirely wrong in his judy
ment respecting the course 10 be pursued in
dealing with the eleven seeding States, ,
and that he was opposed to q vigorous
prosecution Of the war to suppress the re-
belIiOn," and it then goes On to quote such
extracts from his speech as the following:
Ibclieye solenlnly that the war inauguratcd by
Abraham Lincoln and his Cabinet is worse than
fruiiless-that il viii prove more disastrous to the
North ,han 10 the South, and never viii accomplish
he protessed object.
But whatever the object Of the Sun mag
been in thus recalling the attention Of the
country to the attitude which Sir. Bayard
occupied on the question of secession IN
1861, ii has said enough to convince every
soldier IN the Democratic party that from
the nomination Of such candidate neither
justice nor friendly consideration for his in
terests is 70 be expected.

General Logan in Consultation With Mr.. Blaine

General John A. Logan, accompanied by
Senator Eugene Hale, arrived at Augusta, Me-,
on Monday afternoon and were cordially re-
ceived by Mr.. Blaine at his residence. In the
evening the general was welcomed by large
assemblage of citizens, including many ex-sol-
diers, and made brief address, in the course
of which he said:
It is true that the soldiers of Maine in the same
great contest, stood side by side with those from
all other parts of the country and did their duty
for the preservation of this great Nation. 1t was
preserved by their energy, their patriotism. and
proves. Behind them stood loyal citizens of this
grand Republic giving them their support and pray
ers with their hearts full of hope for their success
and liberty first found birth the Atlantic slope
we'll may it there have found true hearts for its
preservation not only Of this country but of that
liberty which God intended for all men.
Let not that which followed as a result of the
preservation now be lost This can only be done
by keeping the control of the institutions of this
country in the hands OF those who sought TO main
tain them.
The committee appointed to notify Mr.. Blaine
and General Logan of their nomination is ex-
pected to reach Augusta on Saturday next.
Mr. Blaines letter of acceptance is all written,
but may be slightly changed in its phraseology
in one or two places before it is given out. It
is understood that it will be of considerable
length. General Logan's letter, it is thought,
will be brief

IN his address before the graduating class
at West Point, on Saturday, General Crook,
the renowned Indian fighter, took occasion
to say:
Perhaps the greatest fault observable in young
soldiers is ideness and mental Incidence. Unfor-
tunately these are faults to which the young
graduates from West Point are especially liable to
fall victims. They are too apt to consider their
future certain; to think of their years of study
as years of drudgery. They often find upon join
ing their commands that their duties light and
apparently unimportant, and for lack of occupa-
ton fall into habits which, thourLs pleasant in
themselves, and perhaps harmless when INDUCED
in moderation, soon become tyrants and unfit men
for methodical work.
That is very true, and the fate which has
recently overtal1en certain officers of the
Regular army whose fondness for poker,
high living and financial speculation led
them to duplicate their pay-aecounts, ought
to serve as a very impressive warning.
These young men who have received their
education at the hands of the people owe it
to the latter to so conduct themselves as to
justify the confidence that is reposed in
them.

From Messrs. John F. Phillips & CO., 20 Park
Row. New York, we have their Newspaper
Rate Book " for 1884, containing full deserip-
tons with advertising rates, of American
rodicas having circulation of 5000 copies
or more, together with list of papers devoted
to specialties and the name and place of pub
LEGATION of the leading weekly paper in each
county in the United States and Canada. The
book has been compiled with a special view to
providing advertisers with the necessary data
to enable them to form accurate estimates of
the cost of advertising of any and every kind
The typography of the work is very handsome,
the binding strong and durable, and the CLASH
fication of periodicals convenient for quick
reference The publishers, however, have erred,
we think, in not keeping the advertisements OF
newspaper proprietors entirely separate and
distinct from their own estimates of standing
and circulation. The Interpolation of these
paid announcements is calculated TO give the
advertiser false idea of the comparative value
of newspapers, fer there is nothing to indicate
that the truth of these announcements is not
vouehed for by the compilerS of the book. In
other respects the work is faultless.

narrow the field of work or limit the num-
Der of workers. No loyal woman who is
willing to contribute of her means, time or
labor to the success of the Order ought to
be excluded from membership, but on the
contrary, in view of the increasing thou
sands of our veterans, their widows and or
phans, who need the loving care of the
Woman's Relief Corps, their active co-ope-
ration should be earnestly invoked, as in the
days of the Sanitary and Christian Com
missions, without regard to whether they
are the actual relatives of soldiers or not
The object of the national Order is in no
sense self-exaltation, but charity, pure and
simple, and its members ought to be glad to
claim as sisters and co-laborers all loyal
women who from motives of the highest
patriotism stand ready to unite with them
in their benefcent work.

and awful tragedy ''Nadjezda," which he has
found to be fifth wheel to his coach since Mod
jeska refused to go on committing suicide twice
in one night and numbering her lovers father.
The fact was that the play was more than she
could endure physically. and she was obliged to
throw it up just as it was in the hey-day Of its
blood-curdling success. The author could find
no one else equal TO the task and was in despair
till he decided TO take it to Paris and lay it at
the feet of the only other actress he knew
equal to it-Sarah Bernhardt.
