im-The members of the Pennsylva
nia Reserve Corps Association held
their ninth annual reunion at West
Chester, on the first inst. Goy. Cur
tin, President of the Association, pre
sided, and delivered ono of his eloquent
and characteristic speeches. The an
nual oration was delivered by Col. R.
Biddle Roberts, of Pittsburg.
i 3 ."Decoration Day" was observed
everywhere throughout the country in
a most fitting and feeling manner. It
must be a real comfort to those who
lest a near and dear relative by the
war, to realize that they aro not for
gotten. How beautiful it is, for the
comrades of a fallen hero, to assemble
annually tostrow flowers—sweet flow
ers upon his grave? Truly, such a
people cannot perish by a fratricidal
or intestine war.
10/3"The recent massacre by the In
dians in Kansas waa a horrible affair.
Dispatches relate that after the mas
sacre "the tongues and hearts were
'cut out of the dead bodies; the calves
of their legs were slit down and tied
tinder their shoes; pieces of flesh were
cut from- their backs; pieces of tele
graph wire stuck into them, and the
ears cut off and heads scalped." Fur
ther, that the fiends "boiled the hearts
of their victims for medicine."
Zee'Dr. Rush, an eminent physician
IA Philadelphia, died recently at his
residence in that city. Re bequeath
ed nearly a million of dollars to found
a library. Ono of the provisions of
his will forbids a due allowance of
Space in his library "to those teachers
of disjointed thinking, the daily news
papers." The sanity of the testator
may not be questioned on this account,
but his benefit would have been per
fect with the prohibition omitted.
atEi-A banquet has been tendered to
Gd . v. Curtin, previous t) his departure
for Russia, by a number of the most
distinguished citizens of Philadelphia.
The Governor has named the 12th inst.,
as the day, and the banquet will take
place at the Academy of Siege at five
o'clock P. 111, and at half past seven
p'clock the doors will be thrown open
to the public, so that the speeches,
toasts,&c., may bo heard. A "gay and
happy" time may be expected, on the
occasion.
*t 'With all the bluster and fury of
the English journals and English
statesmen, over Senator Sumner's re•
cent speech, they are very anxious
that no war shall arise between us,
but that the most amicable relations
and the beat of good feeling shall con
tinue to pervade the two countries.
Shouldn't wonder if they do desire
peace, for the American Eagle never
uses her talons but she tears the flesh,
and the skin of the British Lion is in
g very tender condition at present.
i'Tho coming session of the Grand
Lodge of Good Templars of Pennsyl
vania, which commences at Scranton,
on Tuesday, the Bth instant, promises
to be the largest gathering of this or.
der ever held in the State. The faro
on the railroads leading to the place
of meeting will be reduced one-half,
for the benefit of the delegates. Ar
rangements have been made at all the
hotels, as well as many private resi
dences in Scranton, for the accommo
dation of visitors during the session, at
A-educed rates.
The English papers aro still fur
iously attacking Senator Sumner's
great speech, but not ono of them dare
or has had the courage to print it in
their columns. They curse and swear,'
and invent all kinds of stories in reply
to the Senator, but refuse to allow him
to be hoard by reproducing his truth
ful expose of their unwarrantable con
duct towards us during the war, by
allowing privateers to be built on her
soil to prey upon and ruin our com
merce. Her flagrant violation of in
ternational
law may yet cause her to
mourn the loss of her commerce upon
the high seas, if she persistently refu
ses to make full and satisfactory repa
ration for the damage inflicted upon
us, by the destruction of our vessels,
at a time when we were at peace with
her as well us all other foreign powers.
Wo hope, for the benefit of the civili
zed world that after the impetuous
and hot-headed Johnny Bull has "spent
his fury" and exhausted his vocabulary
of invectives, he will then come down
to reason and common sense, and dis
cuss the question calmly and dispas
sionately, acknowledge the injustice of
her course and pay us for the losses
sustained by her privateers.
Xlar"Decoration Day" was celebra
ted on three different days in different
parts of the country. In some locali
ties, its touching ceremonies were per
formed on Saturday, in others on Sun
day, and in still others on Monday.
This is unfortunate, and ought not to
recur on another year. The New York
Evening Post suggests that "Decoration
Day," as it is already called, should
become ayearly holiday—that it should
be added to the small number of our
national festivities, and set apart as a
day of thanks for our great deliver
ance, and of grateful remembrance of
those brave soldiers who gave their
lives to the cause of the Union and
free government. The suggestion is a
good one. The Bth of January was
kept until lately, in memory of the bat
tle of New Orleans and the triumph of
American arms under Andrew Jack
son ; but this custom has boon dropped.
Why not adopt the practice of keeping
"Decoration Day," in honor of the tri
umph of freedom and the Union?
Xer General Butler is said to have
expressed the opinion lately, in con
versation with some merchants in New
Bedford, "that if England could get a
good sound drubliing from somebody,
the cause of Christian civilization
would be put forward a hundred years;
and he would not seriously object to
this country being the instrument of
Divine Providence to administer the
castigation." Gen. Butler is an able
man and a good lawyer, but entirely
precipitate. If he will only wait pa
tiently for a little while we think that
England will accede to our just-de
mands, without a war. Already the
English press and politicians aro cool
ing down, and returning to sense and
reason. After the British Govern
ment has refused—positively refused
—to indemnify us for our losses, it is
time enough to talk about war.
ZWe have again the monthly debt
statement very promptly from Mr.
Boutwell. The aggregate decrease of
the debt during the month of May
was $13,384,7T7, and the decrease 6111C0
tho first of March amounts to over
twenty millions of dollars. Yet the de
famers of our country toll you that the
Republican party is ruining the coun
try. We conjure the working classes
to ponder over these figures, and ask
themselves whether the Democratic
party (so•called) can do as well, or
better. No party, that over existed,
could do more for a people or a coun
try, than the Republican party is now
doing. Look well to your interests
before you lend your support to those
who seek your ruin.
POLITICAL EcoNomy.—Horace Gree
ley has commenced a series of articles
in the Tribune, on Political Economy,
in which ho will "expound and defend
the doctrine of Protection," In the
two chapters before us, Mr. Greeley
handles his subject in a clear, able and
forcible manner, which is a sure guar
antee of what is to come, and wo only
regret that every man in the country
cannot have the opportunity of read
ing and reflecting over the principles
promulgated by so able and clear
sighted an advocate of protection to
American industry as Horace Greeley,
who is surrounded on every side by
Free Traders, yet he "beards the Lion
in his den."
18t Minister Motley arrived in Eng
land a few days ago. He was received
by the English people in the kindliest
manner possible. Ho delivered a very
conciliatory, and to the English people,
a very satisfactory address, upon his
arrival at Liverpool. The English
press can see no war in his remarks,
and have taken fresh courage, and are
jubilant, after having the "dumps" ever
since the receipt of Sumner's speech.
Mr. Motley carried with him no pos
itive instructions on the Alabama
question, for reasons best known to
the administration. We can better
afford to wait for an adjustment of the
claims than England can.
11&•The coach which convoyed the
remains of President Lincoln from
Washington to Springfield, now owned
by the Union Pacific Railroad Com•
pany is kept at Omaha. It is known
as the "Lincoln Car;" and is never run
except for officers of the road, or spe
cial parties of their inviting. •
Gen. George H. Thomas.
A correspondent of the New York
Tribune, who is' on the wing, writing
from Omaha, pays the following hand
some compliment to the renowned
chieftain whose name heads this arti
cle :
Among our passengers was General
George 11. Thomas, en route for his
new field—the entire Pacific coast with
headquarters at San Francisco. Wo
of the East arc hardly aware of the
admiration, the enthusiasm, the per
sonal affection felt for Thomas through
out the West. Everywhere ono hears
him spoken of as "Old Reliable," "Pop
Thomas," "The Rock of Chickamau
ga," "That splendid Old Man." In
point of fact, his ago is only 52; but
his grave, kindly demeanor does car
ry a paternal suggestion. He is cer
tainly one of the finest characters
brought out by the war. President
Lincoln, when first desired to make
him a Major General, replied with a
distrust born of many disappointments:
"No; he is from the South; I will wait
till ho earns it." Thomas heard of
this—and how gloriously he did earn
the Major-Generalship and every other
honor he has received ! He was al
ways at his post, and for three years
he did not once see his wife. He nev
er got whipped ; he never complained
of anything; he never accepted any
promotion until it was fairly thrust
upon him; "he never committed an act
that had to be explained or apologi
zed for."
zUnder auspices of the Woolen
Manufacturers of the "North 'West, a
general Exposition of Textile Fabrics
is to be held at Cincinnati in August.
Products of mills, and staples of cot
ton, wool, silk, flax, and hemp, will be
exhibited. There are now 3,500 cot
ton and woolen factories in the United
States, of which the Southern States
have but 317. We look to the new
exposition for knowledge as to the
needs as well as the products of the
various sections, and for stimulus to
manufacturing enterprises at the West
and South.
The Cuban Revolution.
The revolution for independence
which has been raging in Cuba since
the 25th of January last, begins to as
sume tangible shape in favor of the
revolutionists. Everywhere they are
victorious, and the cruel and tyranni
cal Spaniards begins to fear the result.
The wrongs of Cuba may bo placed
along side of the wrongs of the Ameri
can colonists. It is the old story re
peated, and ore long we hope to chron
icle the Declaration of Independence of
Cuba.
lys„The Indians are again becoming
troublesome on the plains, notwith
standing the fact that Sheridan gave
them a severe "drubbing" last winter,
and *as promised all sorts of good
things, by the deceitful and wretched
red-skins. We hope the presence of
our "broad-brim" friends will leave a
salutary effect upon the warlike pro
pensities of the devilish savages. We
do not wish to be considered inhuman
or cruel, but we candidly believe that
the cheapest way to get rid of our In
dian troubles, would be to kill and
scalp every mother's son of them.
Day-The Imperialist, a sickly news
paper started in Now York a short
time ago, in the interest of a monarchy
for the United States, and about which
Democratic journals got up a fictitious
alarm, because, as they avowed, it was
in the interest of the Radicals, has
promptly rebuked them by declaring
against both Grant and the Radicals,
and advocating a despotism with the
rebel General Lee at its head. What
have they got to say now
tm. - fteverdy Johnson arrived in
Baltimore from Europe on Friday.
The citizens of Baltimore have tender
ed him a public dinner, which is to
come off as soon as the authorities can
make the necessary arrangements.
The Ex-Minister is said to look halo
and hearty, and is prepared to eat all
the dinners that may bo proffered him.
Beware of the Punch's pudding. '
fly The registerec dead of the Uni
on armies, in summit g up the costs of
our •Scuthorn rebellion, exceed three
hundred thousand men, cut off in the
vigor of their youth or mankind.—
Their cemeteries mark the bloody and
fiery trails of the war through the
Southern States, beginning at Arling
ton Heights, within cannon shot across
the Potomac from the President's
House., On Ailington Heights, the
property of General Leo in the begin
ning of the war, a graveyard of many
thousands of Union soldiers received
especial honors from General Grant on
Decoration day. The special feature
of the occasion at this place was the
decoration of the monument under
which lie the remains of two thousand
heroes marked "unknown." Thence
we follow one or two lines of populous
cemeteries through Eastern Virginia
down to Richmond, including Bull
Run, Culpepper, Fredericksburg and
the Richmond peninsula. Thence
down through the Carolinas on the.
trail of Sherman into the heart of
Georgia, from which, branching off to
the southward, wo halt at Anderson
villo, the most melancholy graveyard
of them all, with its thirteen thousand
victims of imprisonment, torture, ex
posure, disease and starvation. Thence
northward through Georgia wo go
along a lino of National cemeteries,
culminating in the largo ono at Chat
tanooga, in the gateway through which
"the confederacy" was broken to pie
ces. Thence through Tennessee and
Kentucky, and thence across West
Virginia to the Shenandoah Valley,
and down it to Harper's Ferry, from
which point, diverging to Antietam
and Gettysburg, wo finish a circuit of
some two hundred thousand of the
Union dead. Missouri and the lino of
the Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana
and Texas will very nearlysupply an
other hundred thousand.
Woman's Rights.
Mrs. R. S. acConau g hy, editress of
the Clayton Herald, gives her views
on this subject in the following lan
guage:
Wo once laughed at the idea of wo
man's rights and wondered what these
advocates of woman's rights wanted.
We thought they. already possessed
them or believed we at least did. But
as we have grown older our eyes have
been opened; we now see that the we,.
men arc a poor oppressed set and do
not blame them for raising a muss
once in a while to get them. We won
der why it is that we poor women
cannot do as wo please and act what
we feel "I Why it isn't just as safe and
proper for us to walk out alone, when
we choose and where we choose with•
out an attendant as for the men ?
They can walk out all hours of the day
and night if they feel like it and no
ono molests them. Then wo can't see
why a woman has not just as much
right to run out when she feels like it,
as the sterner sex, without having to
don her fixings, her powders and
paints, her flowers and laces, her chig
nons and paniers? Men don't do it.
Why can't she if she feels like it wear
a bonnet that edits her or a dress that
is comfortable, no matter about the
style or if it belonged to a fashion that
dated back to the day of her girlhood,
without having some one remark :
"My, just look at that woman, how old
fashioned and homely she looks; why,
I wouldn't be her husband for a mint
of money ;" when perhaps this same
croaker has just been giving his wife a
curtain lecture on extravagance, and
wondered why women must spend so
much for dress, and why they could
not dress just as plain as their mothers
or grandmothers had done before them.
Why, ah why ? We will tell him why.
The men are the cause of the whole
trouble. They admire pretty and
smart looking women. We have
heard them remark, "just look at such
and such a one, she is good looking,
how those furbelows become her! we
once thought she was only passable,
but now she looks angelic;we didn't
know dress made such a difference;
we do not care how much the dear
creatures put on if they will only look
pretty !"
We wonder if there was ever a wo
man from Mother Eve down, that did
not like to be admired or to be thought
pretty in somebody's eyes. We can
not see why it is that women have not
the right to be composed of as tough
material as the men, instead of being
only a bundle. of nerves that is scared
to death at every ugly bug, worm,
toad, frog or snake that crosses her
path. We cannot for the life of us see
why, when a woman grows old, that
she must not show it, but must be for
ever standing before the glass, putting
on powder, paint, enamel or some such
stuff to hide the wrinkles, pulling out
the gray hairs, or what is far worse
putting on some man's invention—dye
stuff. We sec men daily playing tops,
marbles, balls, running, jumping, and
in fact Whatever their feelings prompt
them without anything being said
about it. And we cannot see why ive
poor women have. not the same right
to toss hoops, jump ropo, and in fact
act like girls again even if wo aro
wrinkled and gray-headed, without
lowering our dignity. Wo wouldn't
give the toss of a copper for the right
to vote; we don't want it and would
not vote if we could. What care we
who holds the offices, or makes the
money, so we have the right to be nat
ural and act ourself, just as we did
when we came from the hands of our
Baker? When men grant these, our
just rights, we will cease to grumble,
and will become some of those delight
ful creatures—angels without wings.
Until that time comes wo shall make
no promises of what wo women will
do or what we will be.
THRILLING SCENE —We have briefly
announced the terrible calamity which
occurred to the canal boat M. Cr. Wea
therbee, at the Fort Miller Dam, on
Wednesday last, by which the wife
and child of Captain Clark, the com
mander of the craft, were drowned
The particular of the affair possess a
thrilling interest. It appears that the
Weatherbee, which was loaded with
coal, was on the point of crossing the
river at the bridge,and Captain Clark,
with two hands, had stepped ashore
with a rope to keep the stern of the
boat near the duck, leaving no one on
board except Mrs. Clark and her young
child about eighteen months old. As
the boat approached the break in the
dam, where the current was very
strong, the stern swung out into the
stream, and got beyond the control of
the captain and his men, as their ropes
were too short to fasten to the. snub
bing posts. The captain's wife made
every possible effort to give out more
line, but owing to excitement, failed of
success. They then tried to hold the
boat with the towing line, but were
compelled to Cut it to keep from draw
ing the horses into the river. As the
boat came into the break Mrs. Clark
took her child in her arms, and cried
"Save me! Save me Save me !" At
this Limo fifty or more men were on
the shore, near the boat, and others
to sit down. The lock tender, Martin
Freeman, in a truly brave spirit, star
ted forher in a small row boat. When
ho came near„Mrs. Clark, hugging her
child to her breast, jumped for the
boat, but failed to reach it. Freeman
sprang for her, but without success.—
The canal boat then went over the
dam, followed by the small boat.—
Freeman saw Mrs. Clark but once af
ter ho went over the dam. His boat
was capsized and he got on top, and
so wont over the second falls. He was
several times " thrown from the boat,
the water striking him with such force
in the face that the blood gushed from
his nostrils. Ile drifted down the riv
er half a mile, and was rescued alive
by some mon on the opposite shore.—
Captain Clark fainted and fell as his
wife went over the dam. It is believ
ed that his wife would have been saved
if she had remained in the boat, as it
lodged a short distance below the dam.

TERRIBLE WEROSENE ACCIDENT—A
Whole Family Burned —A terrible kor
osense accident, caused by the explo
sion of a lamp, occurred last evening
at No. 131 Meadow street, Hoboken.
4. family consisting of three persons,
were burned. The son has since died
of his injuries, while the mother is fa
tally wounded. Tho father escaped
with only a few slight burns.
It seems that William Haese, a Ger-
man mechanic, was detained at his la
bor until a late hour, the wife waiting
tea for her husband's return. Ham
came home shortly after nine o'clock,
when the family, consisting of himself,
his wife Emily and their son Gustave,
a lad of eight years, eat down to the
table.
In some way, while reaching across
the table for a plate, the boy overturn
ed the lamp, which broke. The oil
exploded instantly, the blazing fluid
scattering itself over tho persons of all
three, and setting fire to their cloth
ing, burned them horribly. Their
screams attracted the attention of the
other inmates of the house who rush
ed into the room and finally succeed
ed in extinguishing the flames.
The sufferers were removed to St.
Mary's Hospital, where they were at
tended by Dr. It. Chabert, who did all
in his power to alleviate their suf
ferings, but, without avail in the case
of the boy Gustave, who died this
morning. The mother, Emily, is also
fatally burned, and will probably die
before night. The father is only
slightly burned, and will recover.—N.
