The Late Aired Cellter.

London, aged A.. He was an Englishman

Academy Of Music and a member Of the
ChoiI Of the Chapel Royal In his twenty
first year he was appointed organist at
Ulster Hall, Belfast, and subsequently OF

melody and many Of his songs have gained
wide popularity. 1t will be remembered

led a musical composition of his own called
'Ihe Masque Of Pandora" produced by
Mr [ 20 IalbO, at Piatt's Hall, during his

from having poor librettos. Perhaps the

THE figures for the Dutc h-Belgians, who
behaved very badly, are mere estimates
probably the missing numbered more than
5000, and it is very unlikely that the total
killed and wounded went as high as 1000.
At Gettysburg the NOrthrrners lost II, 800
killed and wounded and 5435 missing; in
other words, they suffered an actually
greater loss than the much larger army of
Wellington and Butcher; relatively, it was
half as great again, being something like %
per cent in killed and wounded alone. This
gives some idea of the comparative OBJ
stinacy OF the fighting. In making any COM
parison between the TWO battles, 1t must of
course be remembered that one occupied
but single day and the other very nearly
three; and It is hard TO compare the severity
of the strain Of a long and very bloody, with
that caused by a short, and only less bloody,
battle. Gettysburg consisted Of a series OF
more CT less completely Isolated conflicts;
but owing to the loose way in which the
armies marched into action many of the
troops that did the heaviest fighting were en-
gagged for but a portion Of the time. The
Second and Third Corps were probably not
heavily engaged for a very much longer
period than the British regiments at Water
loo. Both were soldiers rather than Gen
erals battles. Both were waged " 18th extra
ordinary courage and obstinacy and at a
fearful cost of life. Waterloo was settled
by single desperate and exhaustiDg strug-
gle; Gettysburg took longer, was less
decisive, and was relatively much more
bloody According to Wellington the chief
feature of Waterloo was the hard pound
ing, and at Gettysburg the poundng-oT. as
Grant called 1t, the ham mering'-was even
harder"

His mind is utterly wrecked, and il is be-

him the lines he was to speak, but be was
kept at work under the advice Of physi-
clans who gave il as their opinion that the
collapse would come the sooner for his re-
tirement from work. The case is a mourn
ful one, and awakens all compassion, but

cases does not serve as a warning TO men

rectly to that dreadful end Each case

the proposition to hold a labor congress

A vote was taken, and the convention
decided by an overwhelming majority
against taking any action toward as
sisting in the project.
Here resolution was recommended
that stirred up a lively debate. 1t re-
lated to the action Of the president and
executive council requesting confer
ences with the Knights of Labor

Knights of Labor against the trades
union, and especially on local shoe
makers, were deplored. 1t was said
that all efforts to heal the breach
while they were on the attack and the
federation on the defensive would only
be a waste of time. The committee
recommended that the highest duty of
the federation was todefend the unions
selected by the knights of Labor for
attack. and that the executive comm T.
tee take such action as will enforce
this idea. The recommendation of the
committee was finally adopted
A resolution was adopted favoring

governments and advising members to
