meetings are being held everywhere in this
city and in Brooklyn, and there never was so
intense a feeling timing the republicans in
New York as now. It is perfectly wild——
delightfully so. The meetings at the Cooper

Brooklyn, were immense and were as enthu-
siastic as they were large; the meetings in
the wards are wonderfully large and enthusi-
astic, and what is better, the best men are
taking hold and running them. The charac-

like the old city again. All this indicate the
revival of confidence that we have all been
hoping for. Now let the growling stop in
the country—let us all put ‘our‘ shoulders to
the wheel, and go to work to do something.
The hard times are over just as soon as peo-
ple say so, and act as though they believed
it. If you have a house to .build and can
afford it, go on and build it. The sun is
going to rise just as many times this year as
ever, and everything is going on as usual.
{The crops are averaging well, there is money
enough and to spare, and all that is needed,
is to get rid of thezsenseless scare, and with
confidence go on. This is all that is necessa-
ry to make good times. There are reasons
why we should not let business go by the
board, if it can be avoided. We have streets
to fill, films to settle, and population to at-
tract. There was a steady stream of emigra-
tion flowing into the country, the most with
money, and all with labor, all of which
ceased the moment the cry of “hard times”
was raised. This stream we ought to get
flowing again as soonas possible. The short-
est way to do it, is to get to doing something.
There are millions of Germans, French,
English, Irish and Scotch who want to come
and they will come the moment we can say
“good times" to them. We can have good
times always if we will. I want to see the
ships coming in again, and unlOading their
cargoes of human freight, to go west and fill

In President Rulofson‘s reply occurs this
interesting comparison : '
One hundred. years ago the Declaration of
Independence was signed, and then whilst
American independence, was a fixed. fact it,
Was not unacknowledged fact. Six, seven,
eight yearslinmcdiately succeeding that came
dark years of bloodshed and true discourage-
.mént, trial and treason. So with us six,
seven or-eight'years ago, when this organiza-
tion was originally formed, there was a de-
claration of independence. I need not enu-
merate the particular causes and the large,
number of combined influences that original;
ly brought you together. Your concentrated
and assembled wisdom was not slow to dis-
cover that the only efilcient way of meeting
difficulties that surrounded our way, was to
unite in one solid’phalanx and meet the oppo-
sition in a body, and that you have done.
For seven years you have labored in that di-
rection; but as our forefathers, in signing
the Declaration of Independence, simply de-
claring themselves ready to fight the battles
of liberty, sowe, in forming our constitution,
said, under this banner we will fight, victory .
will be sure. ;
In conclusion the Secretary said it was very
gratifying to see the indications of life in the
Association, and the determination on the
part of the members present to sustain it.
The Convention was a great success, and
not the least interesting feature of it was the
grand exhibition in Photographic Hall, to
which the members repaired in a body on
Wednesday afternoon. ,
Visitors to the Centennial have a rich treat
in store for them in Photographic Hall, loca-
ted at the terminus of the miniature rail-
road inside the grounds, adjoining Memori-
al Hall. Here are photographs from Russia,
Mexico, Bucnos Ayres, Japan, Sweden, Bra-
zil, Norway, Austria, Scotland, Germany, in

Washington's Headquarters is situated in
the south-east portion of the city»of New-
burgh on a high bluff, and commands a mag-
nificent view of thé' Hudson for several miles.
{The building is constructed of rough stone,
is one story high,is fifty-six feet front by for-
;tion, and was erected prior to 1750.
‘ In the spring of 1782 Washington made
ithis building, then occupied by Mrs. Has-
ibrouck and her family, his headquarters, and
remained here until August 18th, 1783.
| On November 80, 1783, the Continental
Army was formally disbanded on the lawn in
front of the old house.
3 This spot, during the period of its occu-
pancy by our beloved Washington, was made
interestingly dear by the presence of many,
notable civic and military dignitaries—Lafay-
ette, Steuben, Kosciusko, Hamilton, Knox,
mad Anthony Wayne, Clinton, and hosts of
: ' e great and good men who offered “ their
lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor,"
to the cause of American liberty, and to
Whom we are indebted for the freedom we
enjoy in this our glad centennial, A

himself and others, proposed ‘to“Was11ington
that he should become King of the country
he had made free, which proposition gave
him the opportunity of proving himself no-
bier than any hero who had preceded him in
the world’s history.
:In the year 1849 this property passed from
the hands of the Hasbrouck family and be-
came the property of the state of New York,
and by an act of the Legislature, passed April
10th, 1850, was placed in the care ofa Board

Tlie flagstaff was erected on the 4th OfJuly,
1850, and the place formally dedicated by
MaijorGeneral Winfield Scott raising the flag
to the breeze amid the cheers of the assem
bleil thousands and the rattling of cannon.
Thiis was this property at apart and dedica«

memories in the children of the future.

relics of the Revolution, consisting of auto-

Infidelity and Philanthrophy.
Mr.‘ Bradlaugh, the infidel, havingleetured
at Deptford, was replied to by a well-known
resident, who contrasted the work that
Christians were doing with that of the Secu-
larists, and said : “ I have been out often he-
tweeu the hours of midnight and daybreak,
searching for poor, friendless lads, with a
view to rescue and bring them to our Boy’s
Home at Deptford, and I have. visited some
of the lowest lodging-houses in London, and
there I have seen the Scripture-reader engag-
ed in his work for God ; and as I have walk-
ed through the streets, I have seen the female
missionary dealing with those of her own .
sex who have fallen, and seeking to save
them from a life of misery. But never,"
said he, “ have I seen an infidel out at these
hours, ready and willing to afford even tem-
poral help to those who were in need.”
A widow of my acquaintance at the Ocean
was emphatic on the horrible figure that the
loveliest woman must cut while bathing. I
remarked that the Queen of Love and Beauty
was fabled to have sprung from the foam of
the sea", and that she must been charmin .
“Oh, yes ; but she had nothing on. I sho d
look charming—" Here her speech came
to a sudden bait, and observing roses bloom-
ing all over her face, I said, “I have no
doubt of it," and walked away.—-Long

Assistant Secretary of the ’I reasury Conant,
in a recent letter, shows that from 1865 to
June-30, 1876, the republican administration
has reduced the public debt $657,992,246 44.
The annual interest charge since 1809 has
been reduced $31,285,281, and since 1866 the
annual expenditures of the government have
been reduced $262,349,619.57, and federal
taxation more than $300,000,000. This
shows that the republican pafiy-has presistent-
ly t'OlloWed the advice of icawber, after-
wards reiterated by the reformer Tilden, “to
live within your income." The party has
not only done this, but has been able to save“
each year an average of $50,742,284. 20
