loyal States. And it is proper to point
out here that in coming to this determine
ton, those who controlled the war-coun-
ills at Richmond would seem to have been
influenced rather by the excited condition
of the army and the South, than by just
appreciation of their proper defensive pol

invited the seizing of favorable opportu-
mites to throw back the Army of the
Potomac from its aggressive advances into
Virginia. and, if possible, force it across
the Potomac. But to convert these often
sive returns into out-and-out invasion was
to overleap their true policy and enter
upon an enterprise uncertain, perilous, and
costly. The experience of the Maryland
campaign of the previous year might al
ready have made this manifest: and hence
it would appear that the Richmond lead
ers, in resolving to push the aggression
into Pennsylvania, took counsel not so
much from prudence as from the clam
ers of the Hotspurs of the South, who,

Colonel Edwards, on the 6th inst, wrote
the Mayor OF Boston. saying that the
cities OF New York ard Philadelphia pro-
posed to entertain such a delegation.
Mayor Collins says that the delegation
represents purely commercial bodies and
that any courtesies should be extended by

communication from chairman Wilson of
the Philippine exhibit at the St. Louis
Worlds Fair TO the Boston Chamber OF
Commerce. and says tina: the Board OF Di-
rectors of that body decided that as the
proposed visit could not be regarded as of
much commercial importance TO the city.
the entertaining OF the delegation did not
come within the scope OF the functions OF
that organization.
Mayor Collins concludes:

Il A member cannot resign because a

the unanimous consent OF the society.
20 Any sign of weakness on the part of
a husband must be reported at once. so
that committee may determine whether
or not he is sincere.

society entertainments.
II. A member must always say I've
been TO the club Il she gets home later
than her husband, and IL he demands an
explanation.
- Members must not show weakness IN
the presence OF their husbands when the
club is up for discussion This applies to
small women. who are advised TO read
Japanese-Russian war news.
HUSBANDS TO BE BARRED.
''6 Each member every two weeks must
throw open her home for an entertain

out, but the front door must be bolted to
keep him from getting in should he be-

bers OF the society. said:
I'VE are taking this stand against our
husbands in self-defense. They would not
listen to argument SO we had to get I'D

ty tales from them for long time, and
think Il is time for them 20 hear a few

tails of the little affairs which will keep
them up late nights. but all agreed that
