The death Of Arunah S. Abel,
the founder of the Baltimore Sun,
which was announced in THE CAPT.
TAI last evening was received with
universal regret and sympathy by
our citizens generally, as well as
from some of the most distinguish
ed men of the country, as shown by
letters and kilograms in to-day's
papers. No journalist of his day
was held in higher regard, and de-
servedly SO, than Mr.. Abel, and his
death is a great loss to the city and
State of his adoption. 1t was the
privilege Of the editor OF the CAPT.

aud we can speak of him from our
personal knowledge, as man who
was held in the highest esteem by
all with whom he came in contact.
His advice was always sound and

All tariff reformers are freee-traders

A NEW PAPER. -We have receiv-
ed from the publishers in Chicago
(1SO and 13a Monroe St.,) new
weekly, entitled America" which
has been founded for ssthe advance
ment of distinctively American
ideas, and preserving and strength
ening American institutions. 1t
will be independently politics and
will maintain that the experience
Of the past demonstrates the neces-
sity of preserving the suffrage from
the communicating influences of
foreign ignorance, prejudice and
vice. It will advocate such legis-
lation as may restrict foreign immi-
grafton by excluding paupers, an
archists, socialists, and all who do
not come prepared to assimilate
with one people and accept our
laws and institutions. 1t will be
likewise promoter of civil service
reform. These certainly are most
laudable purposes aud America
deserves the hearty support Of every
true patriot. The first number
(which may be seen at Mr.. Geo.
jones Book Store) contains arti-
cles and poems by such writers as
James Russell Lowell. Henry Seth
Low, Frank r. Stockton, Chas,
Dudley Warner, Julian Hawthorne
and other noted American authors.
This is 4 sufficient guarantee OF the
high tone which will characterize
this new enterprise. We bid it
God speed

General Hsrrison's Letter in New York.

f. ID. M in Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
1t is easy already to see the effect of General
Harrison's letter Of acceptance. Ii bears out al
the best ideas that have been formed OF the man
by his party, and in its calm, manly and states
manike treatment or all the great questions
now agitating the country is In striking con-
trast with the spasmodic, trucking aud am
bilious efforts of the novice In statecraft who
occupies the White House. The Republicans
are delighted with the letter, and that is the
general expression.
Ex-Governor Pound. Of Wisconsin, who
thought it his duty to vote for Governor Cleve-
land in lS8t has been entirely converted by Gen.
eral Harrison's letter. He said to me to-day:
THAT is the grsndest state document that have
ever read. 1t is so simple and straightforward
q child can read it ana understand 1t. There is
no straiuing for effect in it, 1t is the proclama-
ton OF man who means business, who is wise,
careful and conservative and is as full of in
formation and instruction as an egg is full Of
meat like it, and | admire the man who can
write such a letter. and he will have my heart
lest support"
AS malicious as the muewump papers are. not
one of them has been able to say an uuk;nd
word OF General Harrison's letter. and the issue
of Harpers Weekly to-day practically admits
that the whole force of what they call the sin

A Severe Arraignment by the Committee on
Pensions of the G.. A. -Is.

A Severe Arraignment by the Committee on
Pensions of the G. A. ,Is.
Columbus, o.. Special.
Next TO the Cleveland incident the report of
the committee on pensions was the big event of
the day. This report completely punetured the
claims set up by Colonel Matson, the Democrat
ic candidate for Governor OF Indiana, that he is
the friend of the soldier. 1t is the most caustic
arraignment given any man in Grand Army
circles in some years, and If it does not cost
Matson his election q good many people will be
fooled. The report says the committee at
tempted to prevail on Congress to pass de-
pendent pension bill; that the Senate passed the
measure and the House referred it
sions. Of which Colonel Matson is
chairman. Thee House committee was urged to
act speedily, so that there could be some hope
OF passing the bill, but one man tMatson) blocked
the way. When the session was more than half
spent the chairman of the House committee on
invalid pensions consented to report, but the
bill reported disregarded the wishes of 400, 900
members OF the Grand Army. THE bill report
ed says the committee. twas a mongrel.
narrow. picayunish affair. This bill was
the calendar From that hour it has
proved imr lssble TO bring this or any other
general pension measure before the House.
In May your COMMITTEES prepared q petition to
four days be set APART for the consideration OF
general pension legislation. This petition re-
ceived the signatures of over 100 members OF
the House. The name of the chairman of the
committee on invalid pensions was not ia the
list Of those in favor of such action. L. has been
clearly within his own power to secure the
Segment of one or more days for this purpose.
He made no such effort, nor by act nor word in
dicated that he favored it The responsibility
for the failure Of your BILL the responsibility for
the failure of the general pension legislation OF
any kind or degree, the responsibility for tho
failure to secure for the veterans of the land
n hearing before the national House of
Representatives for the present session rests up
on the chairman of the House committee of in
valid pensions. Regretting that its efforts in
following out your instructions have been thus
hindered and thwarted. your committee recon-
mends that tbs suggestions of last year be re-
affirmed aud another vigorous campaign be be-
gun IN behalf OF our needy and deserving COM
radesr
II Mr. Matson had any friends present they
did not make themselves known. No one OBJ
iected to the severe overhauling the commit
tee gave him. There was some objection TO the
closing sentence by the delegates who favored a
service pension, but the report of the committee
was adopted by an almost unanimous vote.

Letters from Absent Ones.

Among the letters received by Secretary Me-
Lain from old comrades Of the Seventeen to be
read at the reunion was one from James T.
Matlock, Of California, in which he says, ut
was my!purpose to have been with my old COM
rades on the 18th inst, but q higher and more
important duty commands my services for the
next two months. We are now in the midst of
the most important political campaign
known in the history of our country,
except the campaign Of 1864, which
resulted in the election Of Abraham Lin
coin the second time. That campaign involved
the destruction Of the Union Of the States, the
object so much sought by those who opposed
every step taken By the loyal people Of
the North to preserve the institutions Of our
country The present campaign, though po-
litical one, is intended by the leaders OF the
Democratic party TO accomplish exactly the
same results as would have been secured bad the
rebellion been q success, viz. The introduction
into this country of the British science called
freetrade; a science which, if adopted in our
country, will be attended with hard times for the
laborine classes, and depression in BUSINESS cir
cles and manufacturing industriea General
Harrison 10 a true type of gentleman. soldier,
and statesman, and when elected (which he will
bel, on the 9th of November, to the highest
position within the gift of the American people,
will give the country an administration con-
the organization of our government. Ny time
and whatever ability possess will be expended
for the success OF the Republican nominees, Har-
rison aud Morton. The electoral vote of Cali
fornia will be eivee to Harrison and Morton
without q doubt and beyond question The
only sense in which California can be called

G.. W. Caldwell, of Philadelphia, another
survivor of the regiment, who was unable to be
present, wrote in part as follows ''Ths an

when public sentiment is turned in "A certain di-

dency, whose slightest movement does not
escape notice. 1t therefore behoves the boys Of

and their ranks well closed I'D. Let ihem give
the people to understand that we did not soldier
three years with fre-crackers. but that We

Indianapolis excursionists including General
Harrison and family, reached home at o'clock.
Met by Other old Comrades.


Twenty veterans Of the war. members of Pot
ter Post, No. II. G. A R., Of Sycamore, ILL.,,
stopped in the city few hours last evening on
their way home from the Columbus Encamp-
mens. to pay their respects to General Harrison
At o'clock they made an informal call ION him
at his home. All those present were members
OF the Generals army brigade, and very pleas
ant hour was spent in talking over incidents OF
their army life. The leader OF the delegation
was Gen. David Dutton, colonel OF tho One-
hundred and fifth Illinois Infantry, aud COM
mander of the Second brigade, Third division OF
of the Twentieth Army corps. at was in the
army that General Harrison and first knew
each other said General Dutton to
Journal reporter. HE came to the army with
the Seventeen Indiana regiment, and
I with the One-hundred- and fifth Illinois. He
was on the right of the brigade and on the left.
Between US were placed the One-hundred- and
second and One-hundred and ninth Illinois and
Seventy ninth Ohio regiments. Gen. w. L.
Ward was the brigade commander. At the bat
tie of Ressca General Ward was wounded, and
General Harrison was temporarily placed In
command. It is UNNECESSARY for me to state
how calamity he conducted himself in that
position, for it is part of history. Before the
close of the Atlanta campaign Ward recovered,
and took his old command, soon after, however,
he was made division commander. and General
Harrison was made permanent brigade
commander. Throughout that cam
paen had the very highest
appreciation Of General Harrison as a man and
officer. l used to look upon him as one of the
most evenly balanced men / have ever known.
He was splendid disciplinarisn, and yet as
kind and gentle as q woman. He was cool and
courageous, and whenever he took step we
always knew it was in the right direction l
often said to my comrades that General Har-
rison would make his mark, and so impressed
was / with him that after the war closed al
wavs kept my eye on HIM. / watched his course
In Indiana politics. and no one rejoiced more
than l when, by stumDing the
State, he secured majority in
ths Legislature AID was sent to
the United States Senate During the whole OF
his army life he gave constant attention to duty.
He made it business, and his business was his
pleasure feel confident that General Harri-
son Is going to be triumphanty elected Ii
does not seem to me that there is single
Northern State that should be considered doubt
fol this year. General Harrison will get, posi-
lively the solid soldier vote and that will count
a good deal, and from what have seen believe
Wa will gain very materially from other
sourcesr

New Albany Tribune.
AS per an arrangement made by the Republic
ans, committee was appointed to visSthe diff
'ferent manufacturing establishments to ascer-
tain how many persons we're going to Indianapo-

j. F. Gebhart. superintendent of New Albany
wooden mills, was that all members of each par
ty would De excused two days if they desired it,
during the campaign for political dsmonstra-
tions, but the mill will not stop for either party
unless the force is insufficient at whistle time
to operate it for the day. The manager further
stated that he believed in granting all compe-
tent persons the privilege OF casting their ballot
without any restraint.

ciples nave served the best purposes Of the

received a reply that IF any person wanted
to sever his connection with this mill, all he
would have to do would be TO 60 to Indiana polls
