and less pain is the result. Since Sun
day the General has experienced none
of the dsrting pains that last week CEN
tired in the ear. Both physicians re-
ferred to a night Of excellent rest Tues

was appearing exceptionally bright to-
day.
General Grant had another good day.
He dictated for several hours to the

which he resumed the compilation OF
notes for future dictation. The fine
weather has tended to raise his spirits,
and he is much improved in his general
condition over last week. The result
Of the medical examination will be

A few days ago, while Mr.. Robert L.

work IN his field just back Of his barn,
lie noticed a full-grown partridge on the
ground that came up to him instead OF
taking fight. and seemed to have no
fear whatever. 1t expressed its enjoy
ment by cooing and huttering around
his neck snd shoulders. lie took It TO
the house. and the children, more to
save it from the attacks Of the cats,
put it in a cage. They fed it and
il ate heartily, chattering all the
time. The next morning Mr.. Veltch
told the children 10 take il to the woods
and let it 60. They did so, but 1t fol-
lowed them immediately back to the
house. and keeps with the children
wherever they GO, being much more do
ellie than any Of the fowls. Ii can't be
made to leave the house, nor would the
family wish TO have 1t go away If 1t
were not for the cats. The children
have undertaken TO protect and iami-
isrize the cats with the bird by i'm
prisoning the cats during the day and
letting the bird play near them; they
then at night put the bird in cage, hang
il mp high, and release the cats for the

LONDON, May 20.-The Marquis of
Salisbury. speaking this evening at a
dinner Of Middlesex Tories. said it was
now quite evident that diplomacy was
useless to stop the advance Of Russia
toward India. The right policy now
would be to mass all available troops
in the north Of India and to
fortify the Indian frontier. He
upbraided the Liberal administration
for its waste of lives and money in the
Soudan campaigns, which had resulted
only in humilating failures. and urged
the Tories to educate its new electors,
who would exercise the right Of sut-
frage for the first time this year under
the operation Of the new franchise law.
Lord Randolph Churchill made an
address thi, evening at dinner of the
st. Stephens Club. He asserted that
the intention of the Ministers to renew
the Irish crimes act was ali admission
Of failure of the Irish policy of the
Cabinet, and that it, foreign policy had
been proved TO be ruinouS.

ing the honest debtor by preserving

guard for all.
DIR. II. v. Miller spoke for an hour
in opposition to the passage Of the uni
form bankrupt law. He said he spoke
at the request Of many Of the best mer-
chants and businessmen Of Atlanta.
He gave an interesting history Of the
efforts TO secure a successful operation
of the general bankrupt law. So far
they had been attended by failure. The
regulation Of the bankrupt laws should
rest with the Legislatures Of the several
States. There is no general necessity
for a uniform bankrupt law, and Con-
gress should pause, as she has paused
for the past eighty-fve years, before
she acts upon it.
Mr.. Scott. of New York, said the
Lowell bill was good one, and spoke
in its favor.
Mr. Benson. Of Alabama. said the ac-
ton Of this Convention would perhaps
determine the fate Of the Lowell bill.
He made brilliant speech in opposition
to uniform bankrupt law. He spoke
Of the different systems Of business in
England. He showed the results Of the
operation Of such law, and said under
its operation creditors did not get the
assets; that it was q matter Of the rich
against the poor, and could not be ar
ranged so as to operate justly in all
parts Of the country.
Philo Parsons spoke in opposition to
the bankrupt law Of Michigan, and said
that in doing so he voiced the senti-
ments Of the people of Michigan, the
State which he represented.
Mr.. Malone. Of North Carolina. was
the next speaker. He made a strong
speech in favor of the law.
Sir. Williams, Of Tennessee, favored
a national bankrupt law.
Hon. Darwin James, of New York,
favored bankrupt bill.
John r. Willard, Of Washington,
asked if the discussion was still on the
question of the substitute. If so, he
called for the reading Of the Lowell
bill.
The bill, however, was not read.
The Convention then adjourned for
dinner, and on reassembling Mr.. Tren-
holm. of South Carolina, occupied the
floor ten minutes in arguing against a
bankrupt bill.
II. J. Kimball was in favor Of laying
| Mr.. Learning's motion on the table, be-
cause. he said. the Convention had never
examined the Lowell bill, and was only
sctiug on the say so Of others by getting
the bill out of the way. The Conyen-
ton, he continued, could get at the main
question direct.

his resolution, and the Convention took
