1t was an Improvement. but still not entirely
satisfactory. The new design will at once be
accepted as an improvement upon that now in
use. 1t consists of one piece of engraving in
stead of two pieces. as on the present card. A
head of jefferson. miniature portrait after the
original in the State Department occupies a
central place on the upper third of the
card Over this head, In light letters are the
words United States In panels. supported
by scroll work at the left and right, are the
words, postal card" in distinct letters Under
the head are the words, zone cent and beneath
the border line inclosing the designation of value
is the line, Nothing but the address to be on
this side" The design is graceful and light, and
its advantage over the old one is that the idea
of putting the stamp off at one side and the
designation of the article at the opposite side is
abandoned to secure an inclusive design with
the strongest feature of it in the center. The
Postmaster general may decide to print the new
cards on white paper, in black ink. for the rea-
son that white paper furnishes better ground
for written characters. helping the postofice
clerks who are compelled to decipher addresses,
and for the other reason that the brown ink is
complained of by the printers who use it as more
troublesome to obtain good work with than the
same quality Of black ink

observant person it was apparent when he
assembled the platform that something Of more
than ordinary importance was to happen,
After prayer and singing. Mr. Downs proceeded
to read a set of resolutions adopted at special
meeting of the Bowdoin-square Baptist Church,
Friday evening. in which sixty seven members,
including thirty-one males and thirty-six females,
were formally expelled FOR various offenses in
consistent with their professions.
The list of names was read in breathless still
ness, and it was observed the expelled were all
members of the Wilbur faction, which has con-
stantly opposed Parson Downs. At the close Of
the list Parson Downs read the closing resolu,
ton, as follows:
: Whereas The number of these said members is SO
large and the gravity long standing and publicity of
their ofenses well known to make the ordinary
steps of church discipline both unwise and i'm
practicable, therefore be it
Resolved, That the right hand of fellowship be
withdrawn from the persons named and that they be
this day publicly censured and expelled from the mem.
bership of this church.
The specifications of charges cover the past
eighteen months.

All Of the party were unbelievers in a sea ser

Gracefully his serpentship coiled toward shore,
and, before turning away from the rocky coast,
had ventured within 200 yards of the campers
So far as could be judged the marine monster
was 100 feet more In length, and as large
round as barrel. The head was seen upright
in the water. and. when under the waves, the
body foated on top.
Major Kent, summer visitor in this locality
saw the object, but he was further than the
campers, and did not get good view He
thought it was a large fish with a long net in tow

OPPOSITION TO PORTER.
Senators Who Will Undertake to Defeat His
Confirmation.

CONTINUATION.
Washington Special to Boston Herald.
Although General Logan has gone away. Fitz
John Porter's nomination will not be confirmed
without opposition. Messrs. Harrison. of Indi-
ana Hawley, of Connecticut, and Henderson. Of
Nebraska, the three Republicans who voted in
committee with Mr. Logan against the favorable
report on the nomination, propose to delay its
confirmation as much as possible. They will be
able to prevent its consideration at the next
executive session (when it will be reportsd) by
interposing single objection. At the next sue
cseding executive session, however, it will De
entirely possible for the majority of the commit
tee to call up the case and secure confirmation.
Mr.. Harrison is quoted as saying that, as Porter
is not yet sixtyfour years old the age for retire
ment), If confirmed. it will be in the discretion
of the President to assign him to active duty,
and keep him there until his sixty fourth year;
that as Porter, if confirmed, will be the ranking
colonel, he would in case of vacancy higher
up, be- in line for promotion brigadier general,
and would at last reach the retired list with
higher grade than Congress intends. Mr. Har-
rison main tains, too, that General Porter would
reap large pecuniary benefit from longevity Of
pay. and would be entitled to much larger sal
airy than Congress proposes to allow him. Gen.
Porter's friends point out there is no reason TO
believe that the President will do anything more
than place Porter on the retired list as colonel,
as the act for Porter's relief permits him to do.

He used to pick out Jim Bedford, of Colorado,

that Laird showed unusual sef-control in not
