ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,


ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
SARATOGA, August 23.-A meeting COM
posed of 100 persons, mostly clergymen,
from various sections of the country, was
held here to-day for the purpose of consider
ing the possible political and religious effect
of the general establishment Of parochial
schools throughout the United States in con-
nection with the Roman Catholic Church,
and as a working part of that great religious
system. The. meeting was private, being
held with closed doors, and none could gain
admittance who could not show a ticket of
invitation, the desire being, in the in
cipiency of the movement, to have only
those present who were known to be friendly
to the purpose to be furthefed.
The name adopted for the organization
and movement was "The National League
for the Protection of American Institu-
tions." Under this name auxiliary socie-
ties are to be everywhere formed and encour-
aged and literature on the subject prepared
and circulated. One of the avowed objects
of this association is to procure an amend
ment to the Constitution protective of
American institutions and prohibiting leg
islative appropriations tor sectsrian or de-
nominational purposes.
This evening large public meeting was
held in furtherance of the objects of the
national league just organized. The Rev.
DIR. Minor, of Boston, was President. The
principal address was made by Rev. Joseph
Cook, of Boston. Letters of hearty CO.
operation were read from Bishop Coke, of
Buffalo, and ex-President Hill, of Harvard.
Said the speakers: "Our movement is and
will be defensive and not aggressive. We
shall make war upon no mans religion, but
upon the political dangers which threaten
us. There is no safety to our institutions so
long as any man with ballot in his hand
is dictated to by any other man.

there were numbers of Kafirs hiding there,
and several mail carriers had been muir
dered and wagons attacked. The party,
however, were too strong to be molested, and
passed through without adventure. The
same vigilance was observed when passing
over the sandy flats, and when they passed
through Assegai bush. Once through this,
the road was clear to Grahamstown. Here
they halted for day, and then started on
the road leading through Peddie to King
Williamstown. After march OF 15 miles
they halted at the edge of wide spreading
bush. They had heard at Grahamstown
that large body Of Kaffirs were reported to
be occupying this bush, and accordingly
wien they started in the morning, Ronald
had advised the young officer in command
of the Fingoes to pass through 1t by day
light.
There Is no making q rush, he said,
1--WE must move slowly on account of the
wagons, and there will be no evading the
Kafirs. I do not think that there is much
chance of their attacking such a strong
party as we are; but If we are attacked we
can beat them off great deal better in the
daylight than at night; in the darkness we
lose all the advantage of our better weapons.
Besides, these fellows can see great deal
better than we can in the dark"
They started as soon as it was light. The
Fingoes who were 100 strong, were to skir-
mish along the road ahead and in the wood
on each flank of the wagons, round which
the detachment Of rifles were to keep in a
close body, the Fingo women and children
keeping just ahead of the bullocks.
Scarcely a word was spoken after
they entered the forest. The wagons
creaked and groaned, and the sound of the
sharp cracks of the drivers whips alone
broke the silence. The Rifles rode with
their arms in readiness for instant use,
while the Fingoes fitted in and out among
the trees like dark shadows. Their blan-
kets and karosses had been handed to the
women to carry, and they had oiled their
bodies until they shone again, step al
wavs taken by the natives when engaged In
expeditions in the bush, and which seems
designed partly to give more suppleness to
the limbs, and partly to enable them to
glide through the thorny thickets without
being severely scratched.
They had got about half way through the
bush without anything being heard or the
lurking enemy, when a sudden outburst of
firing, mingled with yells and shouts, was
heard about quarter of mile ahead.
'"The scoundrels are attacking convoy
coming down." Ronald exclaimed.
''Shall we push on to their aid, ,Sergeant?'
the young officer who was riding next to
Ronald asked.
81 cannot leave the wagons" Ronald
said: "but If you would take your men on,
sir, we will be up as soon as we can.
The officer shouted to his Fingoes. and at
a run the natives dashed forward to the
scene of the conflict, while Ronald urged
the drivers, and his men pricked the bull
locks with their swords until they broke
into numbering trot.
In few minutes they arrived on the
scene of action. A number of wagons were
standing in the road, and round them fight
was going on between the Fingoes and

quarters improvement in business is re-

consequent upon large crops.
IN THE INTERIOR.
At Chicago the actual transactions are
about equal 10 last years in clothing, a lit
tie larger in boots and shoes, and 18 per
cent larger in drygoods. The grocery trade
improves at most points, excepting as to
sugar, for which the demand has been much
affected by the operations of the trust, and
raw is &c lower. Coffee is in better de-
mand and &c higher, and the serious injury
to the Eastern potato crop. by wet weather
has caused sharp advance. Butter and
eggs are also higher, and cotton 3-16c for
spool, notwithstanding a decline OF sc IN
print cloths.
The splendid crop prospects begin to have
their legitimate effect upon prices of bread
stuffs and provisions. Hogs have declined
this week 20 cents per 100 pounds; lSrd IL
cents and pork 80 cents per barrel; oats and
corn half cent each the latter with sales OF
5000, 900 bushels, and wheat has declined
~ cents, with sales of only 1900, 900 BUSH
els. The speculative movement in wheat
has been defeated by liberal receipts from
the farms, and when the farmers market
freely early in the season the prospect for
fall trade is excellent and monetary pres
sure Is not generally OF long duration.
IRON AND STEEL.
The iron and steel business appears still
more encouraging, but the rapid increase in
supply renders consumers more confident
as to lower prices. Secretary Windows
confidence that bonds would be offered
freely in case of an advance in the rates for
money appears to have been justified thus
far, the offerings and purchases this week
having been quite liberal. The treasury
nevertheless holds s., 900. 900 more cash than
planned, bond purchases do not put much
money at the right spot to meet commercial
needs. Happily foreign trade at present
threatens no drain.
The business failures number 206, as COM
pared with total of 213 last week, and pol
the week previous. For the corresponding
week of last year the figures were 214.
