H0DSON At ATLANTA.
The Hero of the Merrimac Warmly Wei
coined by Young and Old, Patri-
clan and Plebian,

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. 3.-Richmond P,
Hobson has had at least two warm re-
ceptions in his life. One was under the
belching fires of Moro; the other was
in the midst of Atlantas hospitality
yesterday. He, of the Merrimac fame,
was the toast of the whole town. From
the time he arrived In the morning
until he departed last night he received
one continuous ovation from young and
old, big and little, patrican and plebian.
The reception at the governors man.
sion, on Peach Tree street, last night
to the young lieutenant was one of
the most remarkable demonstrations
ever witnessed In Atlanta Fully 5000
people called to see Hobson and his
mother.
Just before the reception Mr.. Hobson
lectured at the Woman's club rooms for
the benefit of the Georgia soldiers in
the field. With that wonderful mod
esty that has characterized his whole
career he never once mentioned him.
self in his graphic descriptions of the
trying ordeals through which he has
just passed. He told Of how the Mer-
rimac went to the bottom midst the
hurricane of shot and shell in Santiago
harbor-and 1t was those men," and
not himself. On the other hand, he
claimed the sinking of the Merrimac
was no illustrious deed, but that it was
merely an evidence that the men of the
American navy stand ready and will
Ing to answer any call, irrespective Of
danger or condition, that their country
might make. The speech was most
eloquent, not In its fuency or in its
nigh soaring phrases, but in its sim
plicity. To say that it was most en-
received, and that the
boy reached the hearts of every one
of his hearers, does not half express it.
In company with his mother Lieu
tenant Hobson left the city at midnight
for New York.

CAMP ALGER A FAILURE.
The Volunteers Now There Are All to Be
Removed to More Lealthful Loca-
tion Near Manassas, Va.

Washington. Aug. Scamp Alger,
Va, Is to be abandoned by the war de-
partment. and about -2O,O 900 men there
are to be removed to a more healthful
locality near Manassas, Va. This de-
termination was reached by Secretary
Alger yesterday as result of recon-
mendations made to him by Surgeon
General Sternberg. Of the army, who
believes in frequent changes of camp
ing grounds Of large bodies of men
and because of the rapid spread of and
constantly increasing mortality from
typhoid fever. Manassas is about 40
miles south from Washington, Is near
a mountainous country. and the town
proper is in the line of direct railroad
communication with the capital city.
The troops will be scattered over a
wide area, and as far as practicable
will be kept in brigades.
The start from Camp Alger is to be
made as soon as possible. and the trip
to Manassas will be In light marching
order, giving the troops some practi-
cal experience in army movements.
The understanding now is that the new
camp Is to be but temporary one, but
just how long the troops are to remain
there Is not stated. Some of the Camp
Alger regiments will be selected for
Porto Rico, but the expectation is all
will first go to Manassas.
The following regiments and organi-
cations are now at Camp Alger in

All hard labor all rough and nm.
skilled labor, is, and owing to the hea,
OF the climate must be, done by blacks,
and in new country like Matabele1and
the blacks though they can sometimes
be induced to till the land, are most
averse to working underground. They
are only beginning to use money, and
they do not want the things which
money buys. The wants of native liv.
ing with his tribe and cultivating meal
les Or Kaffir corn are confined to baross
(skin cloak) or some pieces of cotton.
The prospect of leaving his tribe to go
and work in mine in order that he
may earn wages wherewith he can buy
things that be has no use for does not
at once appeal to him.
The white men, anxious to get to.
work OH the gold reefs, are annoyed at
what they call the stupidity and lazi-
ness of the native and usually clamor
for legislation to compel the natives to
come and work, adding. of course, that
regular labor would be the best thing
for the natives. -" Impressions Of South

Members of our own Society Of
Psychical Research, which, by the
way, has not been much in evidence Of
late, should be interested in the fate
which has befallen the French body
with identical aims known as La So
ciete des Sciences Psychiques. The
latter has just been reduced to state Of
hopeless disruption by the conduct Of a
section Of its adherents who, presum.
ably weary Of conaning their psychical
researches to the chasing OF elusive
"spooks, have gone astray after such
livelier branches Of occult science as
the preparation Of talismans, the con.
cocting Of love philters and the telling
Of fortunes.
The earnest ghost hunters, disgusted
by this descent to tho methods Of the
common or commercial charlatan, have
resigned in body and formed a new
society Of their own. 1t is by no means
certain, however, that those who remain
have not proved themselves wiser in
their generation than the seceders, for,
while ghosts are unmistakably "off''
iq these days, the interest in other forms
OF mystical quackery seems to be as
strong and widespread as ever.-London

Hood s position in literature has beer
affected by the circumstance that he
did two things excellently which in
the general view are incompatible, in
which case popular opinion generally
fixes on the inferior gift as representing
the writer's real capacity. He was a
funny man" as well as lyric poet Of
real quality and earnest aims and was
90 admirable and original in the former
and more abundant character that it
probably caused many to regard the
serious verse as merely an ambitious
bid for reputation it was not in the
writer's power to achieve. Hood doubt
less helped to strengthen this impres.
sion by practically ceasing to produce
serious poetry for some Is years of his
short life But that this was due to
necessity for finding ready market for
his wares is think, beyond doubt
