Afler bidding all a cordial welcome the speaker took up his subject. In all ages we find men pro-cninently prominent in the intellectual sphere. Can we iss by the sages eficlent day w Itheut lltling notice? Tliere is something eternal about theni. Kofereuco was hore m:ule te tlie Hen active in the reformation. Isadora in the sphere of art lived and laljered upon the genial soil of Italy. Such men, w hether they lived then or new, hheuld ever be ro re uiembered. "The Spirit of Progression," by T. M. Rchaetrer. Natiire is the ciubediuient of a living thought, The development of the thought Is gradual, Man is the culmina tion of nature and mere. Life uever re traces its steps. Language in its meat per fect development as ita exists in our age inny be traced te nature. History begin h, lives and grows iu nature. One after another the gloomy dungeons of the age are beaten down by degrees, mid thus the spirit of progress is being taken upon every band, and shall continue be te de until all is revealed. "The World's Scerets," by Hemer 8. May. The veil of secrecy covers much that Is te come te view. Tliere is One te whom all is clear, lly Him, through his numer ous agoncies, secret after secreljs brought te light. Turn te nature and note hew she plays her part, though she refuscs te reveal all. Records are destroyed. New secret nre ever coming te lie. Appropriate ex amples weie advanced iu proof of this. Many homes linve geno down .silently te tlie tomb. Tliis all may be hard te under stand, but it is under the guidance of Him who is omniscieiit mid w lioerdorsull things well. Eulogy by Goerge D. Smith, " William, the Silent." "All that is great In history consists of geed and of great men." Wil liam of Orange is a personage w he, equally with nuy, calls forth tlie expressions of a' patriot, eulogist and of a Christian. Noth ing could (lain pen tils zeal for his country and his Ged. He chose the rugged course of life. "Te whom much Is given, from Jilm much is required" was truly felt by ' him. He u as central in many net er-to-be-fergotten conflicts. He reanimated many a discouraged heart. He was truly pa triotic. In him was a giant strength ever te be admired. He was a mini of his age. He was u ti no advecate of liberty, aud above all he was a uoble Christian. "The Majesty of Truth," by C. K. Schaetler. Among all that Is Ignoble and degenerating iu liuniauity thore ate still protniiient and towering objects. Truth has a red substantial existence. It has the power te draw ull things unto itself. All men in all spheres when enceuntered by truth must iccognhe aud reference it. A unity in itself, it tends te unify all. It makes meii free in that it ordains what Is jUKt and right. Truth never appears se majestically as wlien grounded in per sonality, ile that struggles for truth is en the way te ictery. It is real, substantial and eternal. Peem" Tlie Last Arrew," by llruce Griffith. The M-ene of the poem was iu tlie midst of an Indian tribe. A daughter of this tribe w as carried away by certain French men. The conflict which followed in the attempt te rececr her wus iniuuntlcally depleted. The chieftain's ijulvcr Is drained te three ariewa, each of which he tows shall with telling effect be employed. The last arrow pierces the traitor's heart. Grethean Oration " Respectability of the American Citizen," by Charles K. Cieltz. The struggle of humanity during all ages has been fur liberty. Here uihjii our soil mighty feices huse wieught te lay the foundation of the same enviable, true national ch.tiat'terUUc.

In a short time fourteen full companies were ralsed, but only ten could be mustered Inte the I22d. The remaining companies were assigned te ether regiments; On the 12th of August, 1802, the regiinent was organized. On the 10th of August it arrived at Washington and a few days later was sent te Fairfax Court Heuse and was assigned te General Piatt's brlgade, which subsequently be be bo came the Thlnl, of the Third division, Thin! corps.

Franklin. Addresses wero delivered en that occasion by K. Allen Levell, of the Huntingdon bar, who served with the 122d, J. Davis Dullleld, of the Philadelphia bar, and Others. In the evening a banquet was held at Mientiercher liall, which was participated In by the survivors of the 122d, aud a number of Invited guests. It was at this meeting that steps were taken for the organization ofthe ltegl mental association. The rolls show that theru are alieut 600 survivors ofthe regiment, and that they nre scattered through the country from Maine te California. The business meeting or the association is being held tills afternoon. Tills evching a banquet will lie served at Micuiiorclier bull. CUTTING TIIK THKK8. Complaint That Fire Department Km Km le.v., and Others nre Hundy Wltb the Axe. There has been considerable complaint among pre-wrty owners lu d liferent parts of the city that their trees lmve been cut up badly by iersouser companies having wires running through the sticels. Twe weeks kge the tire department finished the work of trimming trees, and persons living en West Chestnut street aud lu ether sec tion claim that their trees w ere butchered te a greater extent than w as necessary by the tire department men, The new poles of the flre de-Mirtuient are much higher than these of the tclopbeno, electric, light and telegraph companion, me that the wires de net come In contact witli trees In as many places as the ether wires. Chief Engineer Vnndnrsiulth was seen In rcganl te the cutting of trees by his men. He says that they did cut trees, but net meie than was necessary. Seme trees, like willow s, grew faster than ethers, aud mere has te be cut from them. The flre alarm wires are uncovered, and the chief says that whonever u tree limb touches tlieut the slightest bit they are airccted. They therefore require close attention. .The flre do-uirtuient wire lias but a small battery, while the electrln light cetiipuufes have large engines at the back of them. The chief says that he dislikes us much as any ene te cut people's trees, but Is ceni'sdled te de se lu order te protect his wires. The people of the Incandescent Light cenijiany say that their men have net cut any trees. These of the United Stales com pany, the one that furnishes the city light, ure new busy cutting trees. The men say that they only trim the trees oil', taking as little us posslble, but some rather large limbs have been seen uieii their wagons, MAYOR I'.DGKHI.KY'S LKTTKM.

There Is general sympathy with Mrs. Hlshep, the great mind reader" mother, and with his wife. The wife Is III in bed at the Heffman heuse and the mother Is in the same hotel greatly agitated and suf fering from nervous excitement. She was surrounded by a numlwr of ladles, her Mends, yestcniay, and they did what they could te seethe her, but she is unable te eat and is liable te become as 111 as her daughter-in-law. She says that site herself is subject te trances and that her son Inherited the tendency from her; that he would fre quently He for days te all appearances dead ; that these attacks followed the ex enisa of his strange powers, and that he, knowing hew llable he wan te fall into such a slate, was morbidly afraid of Just what, she thinks, aiHnally did happen te blin an autopsy while he was still alive. Mrs. Jllslien sat pmpped up with pillows en a sofa In tlie HefTnmn house yesterday afternoon and denounced the conduct of the doctors In terms which, although lady, like throughout, were as vigorous as the Kngllah language supplies. !V"?u.,ey fnunlercd my peer boy," she paid, "dclllieralely murdered him In the interest of science.
