"The Transcript Building. A Descrifs
tion of the Noble Pile and its Dedication.
By John Quill." Philadelphia, Trartecript
Office.
Before the colored dust wears off its wings,
we feel that we should imprison this butter
fly a moment, and spell out some , Of the
markings that distinguish it., The fate Of the
local squib, intended to be ephemeral, is to
be forgotten on the morrow; all the more
reason then, that the daily journal, itself
doomed every night, should recognize the
surprising transit that has blessed the day with
one laughing hour. Still more graceful and
tileasantis the duty when the Qaill - that has
etcried out the joke is an old neighbor and
hearty collaborator of the quill now inked in
its praise.
When the beauteous Colonel G—, of the
Sunday Transcript, determined to instal
himself in, new quarters commensurate with
hilown comeliness and dignity, he engaged
John Quill, as reporter, to bik en' hand and
duly. magnify the scene. Quill, finding the
occasion, as planchette says, "inspirational,"
produced on it such a mad mixture of history
and fable, such a running stream of hits, such
a set of profiles of magnates supposed to have
been , present, as has hardly been matched, we
think, since the Smiths celebrated the re
building of , Drury Lane Theatre. The pith
of they:Ate is, that the caricatures are lifelike
and legible to' perfection, and the bark of it is
—at allnventeeworse than its bite. The sa
tire SO 'good-natured that no offence has
been taken, even when 'the hits have been
sharp; and the victims have since met and
laughed, and, rubbed shoulders, and made by
verde Of the epigrhms.
The" satire. beguis with eastern magnifi
cenee„ by singing the external glories of
the' new 2'ranseript edifice. Here
is :struck'' at once the likeness to those
schemett of vociferous benevolence which
hav e s been rung in the public ear until
that Organ is nearly paralyzed. The "Noble
Pile,'" however lays all previous enterprises
on their backs ' . The architecture is Doric
lonic, modified by a touch of Low Dutch. so
that the general effect reminds ono of the Pad
palace; combined with the Parthenon at
Athens, a Chinese josh-house, and a herring
warehouse at Amsterdam. Magnificent fluted
pillars of solid soapstone sweep upward to a
facade of variegated sheet-iron. The archi
traVe is of Russia leather, studded as thickly
as the starry firmament with costly brass
headed nails, and reaching to the rear of the
building, quite down into the back yard. The
awnings are of figured satin, each with a de
sign representing some incident in the life of
the proprietor. The walls, constructed of
fine white Italian marble and cannel coal, ar
ranged in blocks so as torepresent a checker
board, excepting that here and there are in
terspersed solitaire diamonds, topazes, ite.,
to give an appearance of festivity
and. gayety to the whole. The battle
ments are composed of cigar -boxes, "with
the stamps on," trimmed with real
point-lace sax inches deep. The azure robe
of night was expressly torn to set the stars of
glory on the Transcript's flag, while the
bane of the edifice plunge downward into
ii reitable breweries skating rinks, and
parks with tame shooting. The interior, seen
by the fine rolling eye of the reporter, is still
more exciting, if possible; we need only men
tion that the editorial library boasts 1,000,022
volumes, bound in turkey,silver-plated, with
patent burglar-proof duplex-elliptic clasps.
The, editors work amidst mirrors and galleries
of the old masters, soothed by a grand piano.
Their lucubrations are committed to a fore
man,whose person is decorated with a medal
awarded at the Exposition for "general mag
nificence." This individual examines the
proofs through a $7OO glass eye, cast "ex
press" at Miliville, N. J. It is thrilling to
know that such magnificences are at this mo
ment transpiring within a few steps of our
office, and that on the left hand as on the
right the BULLETIN is supported by the
proudest feats of journalistic leger-de main.
The report, however, goes pack to the
ceremonies of the dedication. And it is hers
that the eublimities of the great men of
Philadelphia are most superbly hit off. The
Adonis-like Colonel first gives largess to the
newsboys, whose little stomachs can hardly
have digested the Christmas dinner so sump
tnonaly served to them on the diagonal corner.
Each youth receives a Tennyson, a high hat,
a gold-headed switch and a pair of empty
waffle-irons, and a promise of editions of tue
Transcript gratis for the future. The inge
nuous urchins, of course, turn away to hide
the silent tear of gratitude, and "having hid
den it," face about to receive the speech. I
this modern Ecclesiastes is enshrined tht
golden sentiment:
"Never play marbles for keeps, and do
bet pennies on euchre, unless you hold both
bowers and the ace."
But the crowning effort of the report is
where the banquet,and the literary stare there
gathered, are taken oft. These noble
satellites, having imbibed all the delicacies
and indelicacies of the season (cooked in
Paris by Tortoni,and brought over air tight),
and wiped their lips upon Brussels-lace nap
kins edged with mauve ribbon, proceed to
show their mettle in a series of speeches of
the true post- prandial ring. That of the re
condite editor of the Noctes Ambrosiance,
for example, contains the following jet of
linked sweetness :
In the year 1738, in the month of January,
while my old chum Ben D' Israeli and I were
driving home in my hansom from a ball given
at the villa of my friend Lord Fitzboodle (he
was a eon of the Marquis of Backwater, first
cousin of Vicount Darnhim, who married one
of the Whackerses of Berkshire, in 1710, and
was the father of two fine boys, Lord George
and Lord Henry Ferguson, both of whom
went out to India, where the Lord George
died, and Lord William Henry married Hon
orable' Augusta Ramehameheebhoy, only
child of a native prince. The Whackerses
were celebrated in their day for the posses
sion of a superior receipt for hard ginger
bread. Often and often have I eaten it at
their house, taking it from the hand of Sophy,
who was actually in love with me. I didn't
reciprocate, and so she married Lord Bugle,
son of the Earl of Powow, and brother of my
friend Lord Fitch'', who married one
of the Toobers of London (related
by the way to the famous Lady Straddles—
a great leader of fashion in her day; and site
ter-in-law of Sir John Hives, K.C.B. whom
I knew well), and had his leg shot ()feat Bal
akiava, of which accident he sent me an af
fecting account in a private letter. The off
spring Of that match , James Thomie, who
has recently married into the Hopkins family,
of which the bead is Sir John Hopkins, of
Hopkins Manor, Wiltshire (his daughter is
wile of Colonel Duganne of the Guards, bro
ther of Lord Smiley,who killed O'Flaherty of
Cork, and uncle of young 'ensign O'Flaherty
of the Nineteenth, in a duel), who married
Sarah Vickers, an old friend of mine, and a
Oh whom I warmly congratulated when
her sister accepted one of the Muldoons of
Tipperary, a direct descendant from King
Brian Bern, a brother of the Earl of Leh:tater,
and one of the famous three (of which I was
one) who were actually the only efficient
royalists in the rebellion of '4B. But I wan

"Yes,'? Said Mr. D—gherty, "in that su-

the shadows of eternal night, to the perfume

to this giant among men, this god of,.

but the fancy of the poet's brain, a beautiful
dream,_which will dissolve before the morn
ing's sun of actuality. Perhaps it is,but know
that I have a reputation to sustain, and that I
am obliged to spread myself in this heroic
strain whenever I get the least chance. You
just ought to hear me in court some time
when lam on a larceny case! Talent, sir,'
talent."
The genial editor of the Bitem, escapin
from the claims of his million subscriber ,
finds time to attend and vindicate the fame bf
a too reticent poet in our midst:
"It has been America's proud privilege to
produce a dramatist who has not only left his
mark upon the literature of his country, but
has consigned the productions of his predk
cessors to the musty, dusty shelves of anti
quarian libraries; a man, sir, who combines
within himself all the elements of greatness;
who in his fourfold capacity of dramatist, ed
itor, wine-seller and base-ball player, contri
butes more than any other to the intellectual
and physical needs of his fellow men. Shall
I name him? No; modesty forbids. But you
will recognize this great genius at once—you
will perceive whom I proclaim as THE GREAT
AMERICAN DRANLATisr—The Champion Play
Jeiker of the United States, wheal hint that
the first letter of his last name is Thomas
Fitzg-r-ld, the agent , of the. fatuous Barn
Door champagne, and the editor of the 13itens;
a journal, Mr. Chairman, whose discriminat
ing critic has been quick to perceive the great
merit of such Plays as "Light at Last,"
"Tangled Threads," 'Wolves at Bay,"and has
not hesitated fearlessly to de - lare them the
most magnificent ever written; a journal, sir,
that should be •ierevery family; price, three
dollars per annum, with a reduction for clubs;
a journal, sir, to which I ask every gentle
man here to subscribe, and to facilitate this
design 'I have furnished lead pencils and cards
to receiVe names. John, hand these around
to the gentlemen."
The other orators are usually well reported;
there Is something broad-church and catholic
in Beecher's obliging the company with a
ballad to the air of "Rake her down, Ball;"
and something almost Homeric in the stir -
prising fancy of the author of "The
Podesta s Daughter" softly impeaching
himself with the perpetration of
the Ledger's obituaries and the poetical ad
vertisements of the step-shops. Oar distin
guished Kelley's accent also is well repro
(Weed. But the cream of the thing is in the
Honorable Mr. Richard's response to the
toast of "Woman:"
. _
"In every position in life," said Mr. V—x,
"woman is beyond calculation valuable.
When we consider her in her maternal capa
city, we must perforce admit that she has no
rival; if we regard her as the source from
whence in helpless incipiency we derive that
laqteal sustenance which affords nourishing
assurance that our corporeal nature is not to
be , permitted to endure the frightful pangs of
gradual starvation, we must admit that she is
not equaled by any one; when we look upon
her as an energetic and capable engineer of
those arrangements by which the soiled habili
ments which erat adorned our persons are
,purified and fitted again by wash
ing and the application of ferruginous caloric
to be again assumed, we look about in vain
for her superior. As the second of high con
tracting parties at a matrimonial festival, she
cannot be excelled; and it is exceedingly
dubitable if any-human being could so judi
ciously, fitly, and acceptably occupy the posi
tion of a sister. * * * * Where would
be the millinery business without her? The
manufacturers of those infinitesimal particles
of cranial adornment designated by the un
reasonable cognomen of bonnets, would be
reduced to penury without woman, and man
d , prived of his largest opportunity to dispos
ses himself of that contaminating dross, af
fection for which is the radical cause of evil.
No,' exclaimed the Honorable Richard V—x,
am here to-night as her cuarapion, and
when I declare boldly that every female of
the human race with whom I am acquainted
is a woman, I give utterance to a fact from
which I derive exultant Satisfaction."
Those who have often applauded the after
dinner speeches of our professional "ban
quetists" will be delighted to match these
specimens with what they have heard before.
We leave our readers, therefore, with a good
taste in their mouths, by judiciously closing
while the dinner is still going on. There is,
however,more prime fun to be had ont of this
modest pamphlet, for which we refer the
public to the counters of the Transcript
office, over which the Report will be handed
1.'3 , one of the gilt-edged young men of the
establishment.
Why, by the by, did the gallant Colonel
hide so good a burlesque in so rude an en
velope? The libretto is but coarse and com
mon in appearance, and its grains of golden
wit can hardly be found far the husks of
common advertisements which smother them.
Why had we not this bright local satire
brought out in an edition de luxe adequate
to its value ?
TEE BICYCLE
Mr. J. H. Winser, in the last Galaxy,
has made it his business to know all about the
velocipede—who rides it, how they stick on,
and whether the custom is "falling off;" we
extract :
THE PRElrlii AM) THE PULPIT Oti THE Y.ELO-
Mr. Dana, of the New York Sun, is a skil—
ful velocipedist. Ho delights in a sensation
of any sort, and finds great pleasure in that
which the bicycle affords. He spins upon his
diurnal round as surely as the "Sidt" shines,
and hitching his steed to a nail in his count
ing-room, gives free rein to. his leaders up
stairs.
The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher also is am—
bitious to rank among the velocipedists. He
thoroughly believes in the Machine, and is
diligently striving to master its peculiarities.
No man is too old to learn, and Mr. Beecher
is certain to succeed. He has purchased two
velocipedes for his boys to ride, and in a re—
cent lecture on "Ratiunal Amusements," he
expressed the opinion that a short time hence
a thousand velocipediets would be whirling
every Sunday to Plymouth Church, without
being amenable to the charge of violating the
Fourth Commandment.

LONDON, THE EXILE'S ASYLUM
Free England him at all, times boasted, as
one of her chief tam of ion—laudation, the
cordial welcome she offers to oppressed
patriots flying from other governments., The
irresponsible nature of this welcome, how
ever, is pretty clearly depicted by Mr. Justin
PllcCarthy,in his reminiscences printed in the
current number of the Galaxy, from which
we extract the experiences of Louis Blanc,of
Garibaldi, and of another Italian, in the way
of specimens:
LOUIS BLAND IN LONDON.
Louis Blanc is, perhaps, the only Revolu
tionary exile who, in my: time, has been
everywhere and permanently popular in Lon
don society. He seems to have honorably
construed his place in English society to be
that of one to whom ' shelter had been
given, and who was bound not to make any
use of that shelter which could embarrass his
host. In London he ceased to be an active
politician. He refused to exhibit himself en
victime. , He appealed to no public pity. He
made no parade of defeat and exile. He
went to work steadily as a literary man, and
he had the courage to be poor. When he ap
peared in public it was simply as a literary
lepturer. He was not very successful in that
capacity. At least, he was not what the
secretary of a lyceum would call a success.
Be gave a series of lectures on
certain phases of society in Paris be
fore the great Revolution, and they
were attended by all the best literary men in
London, who were, I think, unanimous in
their admiration of the power,the eloquence,
the brilliancy which these - pictures of a
ghastly past displayed. But the general pub
lie cared nothing about the salons where wit,
and levity, and wickedness prepared the way
for revolution; and I heard. Lotus Blanc pour
out an apologia (I don't mean an apology)
for Jean Jacques Rousseau in language of
noble eloquence, and with dramatic effect
worthy ofra:treat orator, in a small lecture
room, of 'which three fourths of the splice
was empty. Since that time he has delivered
lectures occasionally at the request of me
chanics' institutions and such societies; but
he has not essayed a course of lectures on his
own account. Everyone knows him; every
one admires his manly, modest character
and his uncompromising Republicanism.
GARIBALDI AND THE PEERAGE
To this day 1 am perfectly unable to under
stand the demeanor of the British peerage to
ward Garibaldi, when he visited Landon for
a few days some years ago. The thing was
utterly unprecedented and inexplicable. The
Peerage literally rushed at him. He was
beset by dukes, mobbed by countesses. He
could not by any human possibility have so
divided his day as to find time for breakfast
ing and dining with one-fifth of the noble
boats who fought and scrambled for him. It
was a perpetual torture to his secretaries and
private friends to decide between the rival
claims of a Prime Minister and a Prince of
the blood; an Arclabishoptaad a Duchess; the
Lord Chancellor and the leader of the Oppo
sition. The Tories positively outdid the
Whigs in the struggle for the society of the
simple seaman, the gallant guerrilla. The
oddest thing about the business was, that
three out of every four of these noble person
ages had always previously spoken of Gari
baldi—when they did speak of him at all—
with contempt and dislike, as a buccaneer
and a filibuster. . •
The thing ended in a quarrel between the
Aristocracy and the Democracy, between
Belgravia and Clerkenwell, for the custody of
the hero, and Garibaldi escaped somehow
back to his island during the squabble. But
I think Lady Palmerston let the mask fall for
a moment, when, growing angry at the assu
rance of Garibaldi's humbler friends, and per
haps a little tired of the whole business, she
told some gentlemen of my acquaintance that
quite too much work had been made about a
person who, after all, was only a respectable
brigand.
THE NEAPOLITAN REVOLUTIONARY AGITATO
Let me close my random reminiscences
with one recollection of a sadder nature.
Some three or four years ago there came to
London from Naples an Italian of high educa
tion and character—a lawyer by profession;
a passionate devotee of Italian unity, and
filled naturally with a hatred of the expelled
Bourbons. This gentleman had discovered
in one of the Neapolitan prisons a number of
instruments of torture—rusty, hideous old
iron chairs, and racks, and screws, and
"cages of silence," and such other contriv
ances. Ho became the possessor of these,
and he obtained from the new government a
certificate of the genuineness of his treasure
trove—that is to say,/ a certificate that the
things were actually found in the plane
where the owner professed to have found
them. The Italian authorities, of course,
could say nothing as to whether they had or
bad not been used as instruments of torture in
any modern reign. They may have lain
rusting there since hideous old days when
the Inquisition was a fashionable institution;
they may have been used—public opinion and
Mr. filadetone said things as horrible had
been done—in the blessed reign of good King
Bombs. The Neapolitan lawyer firmly be
lieved that they had been so used; and he be
came inspired with the idea that to mire theSe
instruments, first to London and then to the
United Stites, and exhibit them, and lectpre,
on them, would arouse such a tempest of
righteous indignation among all peoples,• free
or enslaved, as must sweep kingcraft and
priesteraft off the earth. This idea became a
faith with him. He brought hie treasure'd
rusty iron to London, and pro
posedi to take a great hall and be-•
gin the work of his mission. I endeavored to
dissuade him (he had brought some introduc
tions to me). I told _him frankly that, just
at that time, public opinion in London was
utterly indifferent to the Bourbons. The fer
vor oflinterest about the Neapolitan Revolu
tion had gone by; people were tired of Italy,
and Wanted something new; the Polish insur
rection was going on; the great American
Civil 7ar was occupying public attention;
London audiences cared no more about the
crimes of the Bourbons than about thitiftlinett ,
of'the Borgias.. He was not tole dissuadeC
He really believed at first that b e could in
dike sorde,great English OatZfr; Gladitone or
Eright, to deliver "lectures on 'those instru-
Wnents and bhp guilt of the system which ein7.
ployed thetn. Then he became more
moderate, and applied tol thin and that
professional 'lecturer—in vain. No 'one
would have anything to do with a
project so obviously doomed to failure—he
himself spoke no English. At last he in
duced a lady who was somewhat anibitious of
a public career to lecture for him; and he
took a great hall for a series of nights, and
advertised largely,and went to great expense.
I believe he staked all he , had in money or
- credit - on the-succesn-of-thn-enterprige; and
the making of money was pot hie object; he
would have cheerfully given all he had to
create a flame of public indignation against .
despotism. ,Need I say what a failure
the enterprise was? The London pub
lic never manifested the slightest interest in
the exhibition. The lecture- hall was empty.
I believe the poor Neapolitan tried again and
again. The public would not come or look,
or listen. He spent his money in vain hegot
into debt in vain. His instruments of t torture
must have inflicted on their owner agonies
enough to have satisfied Maniscaloo or Carafe.
At last he could bear it no longer. He wrote
a few short letters to some friends (I have still
that which I received—a' melancholy me
morial), simply thanking them for what
efforts they had made to assist him in his ob
ject, acknowledging that he had been over
sanguine, and intimating that he had now
given up the enterprise. Nothing more was
said or hinted. A day or two after,he locked
himself up in his room. Somebody heard an
explosion, but took no particular notice. The
lady who had endeavored to give voice to my
poor friend's scheme came, later in the day.
to see him. The door was broken open—
and the poor Neapolitan lay dead, a pistol
still in his hand, a pistol bullet in his brain.
The Errors of the Eye.
A paragraph under this head is suggeetive
as to the first acquisition of the power of
mina the eye aright :
"From the time that children begin to
distinguish objects, their eyes are liable to be
affected by two causes of error. before being
able to judge of the position of things sur
rounding them, they see everything upside
down; they consequently acquire a false im
pression of the position of objects. The next
cause of error that it likely to mislead them
is the fact of their seeing everything double,a
separate image of everything being farmed
on each eye ; and it can only
be by the experience gained through
the sense of touch that they can ac
quire the. knowledge necessary to rectify
these errors, and see those objects single
which appear to - them double. This error of
sight, as well as the first one, is set right so
easily in the end,,that although in reality we
see everything double and upside-down, we
imagine that we see them single, and in their
proper positions, a state of things brought
about entirely through another sense exercis
ing its power over our judgment; and it is
hardly too much to say that, if that sense
were deprived of the power •of feeling,: our
eyes would deceive us, not—only as to the
number but the position of the objects within
our view. --lifaricm'a " Wonders of Optics."

THE BLACK HAWK WAR-
Abraham Lincoln, Zachary Taylor,
'Moberg Anderson and Jefferson Davis
Serve Together---A Letter from Den
eras Anderson.
[From the Chicago ive"g Journal of March 15.1
The following interest' incident, was stated
it a recent address before the Historical Society
of this city, by Hon. Isaac N. Arnold : .
"In 1832 John' Dixon , kept the ferry across
Rock River, and the latch-string of his hospitable
home was never drawn in against the stranger.
The Black Hawk war was pending, and settlers
and whole families had been killed and scalped
upon the prairie._ The National Government
sent General • Scott, with Some regular troops, to
Chicago k and to these were added some compa
nies of Illinois mounted volunteers, called out by
Governor Reynolds to aid in protecting the set
tlers and chastising the Indians.
"Among the regulars, who met on the banks of
Rock river, at the crossing then , called vi x o k e s‘
Ferry,' under the immediate cemmand of.Gene
rat Atkinson k i were' Lieuttniant-Colobelt Zachary
Taylor, subsequently,', President of the - United
States; Lieutenant Robert Anderson, the hero of
Fort Sumter; Lieutenant Jefferson Davis, and
private Abraham Lincoln, of Captain Ile's com
pany of Illinois Mounted Rangers. These facts I
received from John Dixon. a hale man of more
than eighty ,yeare, still living. Anderson- and
Davis were young Lieutenants, just from, West
Point, and Lincoln was a tall and boyish-looking
young man of twenty-two. So far as I know,
our fellow-citizen, Gordon S. Hubbard, is the
only living citizen of Chicago who was engaged
in this expedition against Black . Hawk. , _
"When Major Anderson visited Washington,
after his evacuation of Fort Sumter, ho called at
the White House to pay his respects to the Presi
dent. After the Chief Magistrate had expressed
his thanks to Anderson for his conduct in South
Carolina, Mr. Lincoln said: 'Major, do you re
member of ever meeting me before?' No,' re-.
plied Anderson, II have no recollection of ever
having bad that pleasure.' iMv memory is better
than poem,' wild Lincoln. 'You mustered Me
into the United States service, as a high private
of Illinois volunteers, at Dixon's Ferry, in the
black Hawk war.' "
The letter from General. Robert Andereon,
which follows, corroborates Mr. Arnold's state
io

' interest. • ' '

Lieutenants of this company were J. M. Harrison
and H. B. Roberts. The strength of the com

The'company was mustered out of service Jane 18,
at the rapids of the Illinois; and A. Lincoln was mua
tered.in-again-tit same-placeon-the-20th-of 'Jane--

My muster rolls and papers contpin much that .night

In reference to the persons named in the address, and
the parties which went from Chicago, I ,nnd it . 'stated
that Charles B. Caldwell, principal Chief °Rho Potta

the army, while Ob its march. June 29. Under him
were A. Robinson, Second Chief; Wanbonesee, First.
War Chietrvith thirteen Chiefs and eeventy-elght '

The last duty I performed in that war waa whertl
was sent by General Scott front Rock Island, 'with 'a
guard, to bring from Prairie du • Chien. Black hawk
and come other prisoners. who. bad been zarkendered
to Colonel Zachary TaYlor i thencortimandingtharpost.
The'cholera broke out in, the campnt Rock Island the
day I left, aptl stionnfterwardarnongmy guard. When
I reached Prairie du Chien we were all suffering from
that disease, In causequente of which Colonel Taylor
sent Lica. Jefferson Davie with another detachment
to act under me as an additional guard over the prison.
ere. As the cholera ivturraging at Rock Island, when
we reached there on onrittorn, Gen. Scott ordered me
to take the party to Jefferson, Rarracks. which I did.
Lieut. Davis returned to Ida post, until, the war being
then ended,:to the 81. 'Louis Arsertal,where I bad been ,
stationed on ordnance diny.rbeforel left to report, as a
volunteer, to Gen. Atkinson at Rock Island.
I regret that my Impaired health and memory pre
vent my giving you many anecdotes and incidents of
that Interesting period. The one of my meetings with'
President Lincoln. In Washington, on my return from
Sumter, occurred as you relate it, and he was "alivaje
kind enough to express to me, both personally and by

Grateful Letter from an Atlanta
Chipurch.
When Major-General Meade assumed com
mend of the Third Military District he found the
congregation of 81. Philip's Church, in Atlanta,
Ga.,laboring under distress in consequence of
thei church eaties having been dismantled du
ring the war. He afforded them considerable
assistance, and 94 his recent retirement from the
command, the grateful church officers wrote him
the following letter :
ATLANTA, Ga., Tuesday, March 9, 1663.—Major-
General Geo. G. Meads. U .
5..4: Dean Eta:—ln com
mon with many others in the bounds of the Third
Military District, the Rector, Church Wardens and
undersigned Vestrymen, of St. Ph s' learned
with sorrow that you are about to leaVe nri - fo? another
field of duty. Such has been the Impartiality of your
administration here, and such, in particular, your un
solicited kindness to the parish of St. Philip's, that we
cannot suffer you to depart without expressing to You
our sincere thanks for all that you have done for us,
and our appreciation of the spirit whit: prompted tt
You found the church and congregation of St. Philip's
suffering, more than any other church in the clty,from
the desolations which war had made. Through your
personal liberality and your appeal:s , lo idea& in the
North, much of the war-waste has been restored; our
church-building has been made comfortable and
church-like, and soon will be supplied with a valuable
organ, making the fu rn iture of the church complete:
and all this you have done la so delicate a manner as
to have made the offering acceptable to the poorest,
the proudest, or the moat sensitive of the parish. In
a note now before us. the beloved Bishop of our dio
cese says :—"I desire to unite with you in thanking
General Meade for the many kindnesses which he has
shown na." In' our social and Church relations with
you, our intercourse has ever been harmonious and
most pleasant,and we shall ever remember you (apart
from our several views on political questions) as an
honest, unselfish and liberal Christian gentleman.
Ton will long be remembered here, and the work
which you have done for the church in Atlanta will
abide, and speak your name when the triumphs of the
military hero are forgotten and the monuments of the
battle-field have crumbled into dust. Wishing you
God's speed in your new field of labor. and a long,use
fut and peaceful life, we are, with sentiments of sin
cere respect, your obedient servants,

WASHINGTON, March 22.—1 n the course of a
conversation bad by the Pennsylvania State del
egation with the President on Saturday, after
their views about the whole State being. repre
sented in the city appointments had been duly
set forth, Gen. Grant asked them if ex-Governor
Pollock bad not lately moved to Philadelphia
from the country apd if they considered him a
city man, to whiclf they replied that they did
not. The friends of Mr. Pollock inferred from
this that his appointment as Director of the
Mint was determined upon.
The President also asked the, Pennsylvanians
if they thought a, man whO had, been a good
soldier,. a consistent Republican and a faithful of
ficer ought to be removed because he had been
appointed by Johnbon. This retaark wee thought
to have teference to Gen. Baxter, the present
Naval Officer, and to indicate his retention.
