The irty was In tbe highest spirits and were delighted at the number of Americans brought together. Banker Horten and faailllywere aboard a private yacht, Alan Arthur, ex-Prealdent Arthur's son, Mrs. Frank Leslie and ether Americans were aboard various vessels iu tbe harbor. Mr. Augustus Jay, second sec retary of the Parla legation, was en beard the war ship Helicon. The scene in Portsmouth harbor was meat glorious. The day waa bright and the sunshine made everything radiant with beauty. In and out among the grim and ponderous men-of-war darted the huudreds or email beats, yachts, both sail and steam, and beats of all descriptions. Mr. Vanderbllt'a yacht Alva waa decked with flags and every beat and ahip In tbe harbor was dressed beautifully and presented a brilliant and animated scene. When the invited guests arrived tbey were taken en the troop ships which were towed etl te convey the visitors te Hpltbead. The ladles were dressed In charming costumes mostly et white, trimmed with colors; the men ler the most part, that is the civilians, were llannela and light material. The brilliant uniforms et tbe countless eUicers, both military and naval, presented a sight seldom witnessed in the town. Everything was bright with color. Twe immense Indian liners were the first te move off with their 'guests and these msjeatie vessels an they moved through tbe water created the most enthusiastic admira tien from the multitude en shore. These were followed by ether troop ships from the Portsmouth dockyard .and scores et steam beats carrying great leada of passengers te view the great naval tournament Tbe steamer Bennie Doen waa filled with Amer icans. The vessels forming the vast fleet at Hpltbead were divided iute their cruising squadrons, and moved In columns, line ahead, ships two cables apart, columns at three cables apart The ugshlp beaded each division and faced eastward. There were also formed in columns of division, parallel te the ether squadrons and arrauged in the same manner, five coast delense nquadrens, each ceualsting el coast defense ships, gun boats and torpedo beats, Hlx training ships were moored In single column lu shore par allel te the ether liners.

It represented every class or vessels In the British navy from the majestic Iren -clad te the spiteful torpedo beat Compared with this review the review of tbe Crimean Heet by the prince consort and queen 31 years age sinks into insignificance. Heme el the wooden ships used at that time were decked out te day for tbe occasion and there, pelutiug te tbe still earlier history of the navy, standing as steadily in the choppy aea as she did in ber palmy day, rode Nel son's old ship Victory one of the noteworthy sights en this memorable day. Every ship or steamboat that passed ber gave her a round ofcheors till her old timbers echoed. The old war vessel had mounted a gun or two and Joined in the general salute te the queen and empress, tireat praise must be given te Hlr Charles Beresferd, te whose excellent ar rangements both in respect te tbe attention et the guette and the succasa et the atlalr Is largely due. Just before 3 o'clock the royal yacht Albeit aud Victeria, with her majesty the queen en beard, atarted from her buoy and pro ceeded by the Trlulty yacht and followed by the royal yachts Oibern and Alberts, and her majesty's ships Enchantress, Helicon, h.u phrates, Crocodile aud Malabar, The royal yacht and the vessels accompanying ber pasaed between the lieesaa leaving the coast defense squadrons ou the pert side.

Alter the entire tour of the ships had been made tbe great cannon en the large ships began te thunder forth the royal salute. As each gun sent its tribute out ever tbe waters the vessels began te roll and the sea te heave. The queen's reception was most enthusiastic. The vecsels drawn up In line extended ever four mlles and even this Hue was added te by the great troop ships laden with spectators ; also falling iute line aud saluting as the queen passed. At the chaw of the review the vial vial teia were landed and Immense crowds are preparing along the shore te witness tbe magnltlcent display this evening when tbe ships will be covered with lanterns and nre nre werks discharged.

Orand Master Workman Powderly In the .uurnat e Utiittit Lntmr, speaking of the new movement of the Knights of tabor, says: Te supersede tbe wage system by the In troduction of the cooperative Industrial sys. tern always has been tbe goal et the etlerta et our order, and a general co-operative beard ter a long time has aiiervled our Interests In this direction. The only change or Im portance which the revised constitution lias effected Is making the contributions te the co-eperatUe fund a regular assessment Instead of a voluntary contribu tion as heretofore, These co-operative dues new will amount te 21 cents a year for each member In geed standing, but whonevor tbe funds or tbe beard have become sulllclent for the practical purposes or our association, tbe compulsory assessment will cease. It Is evident thst In a short time there will become available a sulllclent sum of money with which the beard can begin operations en a substantial scale. This system et manag ing the funds eanuet be called democratic, It la true, but democracy la out of place In business which Is simply a matter el dollars for these Interested. There Is no room in co ce co eiwrallve management ler sentiment, or for tbe rule of the majority, which baa little feel ing of responsibility especially when the individuals have only a small financial interest at stake. Besides, very tew districts, except by means et large monthly assess ments, could get together in any reasonable time a practicable co-operative lund and these that did would as likely as net be peer co operative soil. On the ether hand the general elllcera who have the survey et the whole industrial held may be trusted net te let an opportunity for a profitable Investment slip. Thus we shall have all the advantages el tbe system of protective co-operation followed by the English Wholesale suciety, about which there has been se much talk since the meet ing of the Carry ie congress. Te successfully carry out this scheme It will be necessary te have comprehensive co-operative laws en acted, otherwise tba carrying out of our sys tem may be leund te be impossible.
