Col. Fred Mecker had just loft the three nontha' servico in St. Louls, and, upon ths call of a number of prominent Germans in this city, among whoin wero Meesra, Schnclder, UBntz, 1les- h)H, Happ, and Brentano, hud come to Chleago to aid [n the formation of the regiment, and assume the command. About the middln of June. 1801, eight companles, mado up exclusively anmm mén of German birth, wero fully cautpped, an were_sgon joined by the Lincoln Mifics and the Unlon Cadots, two companics wiich had nl- ready done servico at Cairo a8 three months' men. Thus the regiment was complete, and, nfter n Urief stay in the cnm{l of Instruction at Alton, was firat sont to Miesourl. < It took part in many n hot engagement, in a number of the greatcst and Uloodlcst battles fought upon the scat of war In the Weat, and In many of the most Important cam- palgns.

Our regimont was buta very small part of tho great military bodles with which wo wero connected from time to time, and some of our commundera were h|glly~rfl!wd and noble men, One of the most dashing and brlliant which took part was tho raid which, In tho spring of 1862, niter we had taken possesslon of Bowling Groen, Franklin, Nsahville, and other places, we wmade under the ‘brave and abls Gen. 0.

THE STREET-LAMPS, TUE VALUE OF MOONLIONT. A A great many questions have been asked about the rule adopted in calculating the new time-table for lighttng and extinguishing the street-lamps of this clty, The ditficulty seems to be chiefly in the way of understanding tho part which tho moon plays in the arrangement. The following statement, prepared by the author of the new table, way servo to explain his views In the case: From the third to the first quarters of the moon, that Juminary fs less than half full, and her light {s not taken into the account. The lamps are lighted and extinguished solely with reference to the sunlight; the flrst lamp being lighted ono liouz hefore dark, and extingulshed at the beginning of morning twilight. During the second quarter of the moon, the firat lamp is lighted about one hour and a quar- ter, and rlm 1ast lamp o quarter of an hour, be- fore the thne of moonset, ‘Tho timo of extin- guishiog 1s izavernml by the sun, During the third quarter of the moon, the Jninps are lighted with reforence to the time of sunset, and the first lamp 18 extinguishied ubout aquarter of an hour aftor the moon risea. uring ahout four nights, at and near tho full, the moon s above the horizon lunfi enough to obviato tha necessity of lightng tho lamps at all, In fair weather. The following table will show the operation of the plan during the first moonlit hall-month of the yesr, ‘The times given are for the evening and” morning following the date in the first col- umni .

Some provision ought, thercfore, to bo made for burning gas durlng cloudy nights, irrespective of the moon. ‘The gaa should also burn longer in bad weather than the tlines Indicated by tho solar part of the table, ‘T'he calculations are baused on tho supposition of fair weather; and noone is yet wise enough to be ablo to calculate several months In advance when o specificd locality on this part of tho eartl's surface will be covered with a pall of cloud that will rendor the moon- light valucless in,the streets of a city. TIIE SPIRITUALISTS. SECOND DAY'S BBSSION OF THE QUARTERLY CONFERENOE. The quarterly sossion of the Northern Illinols Assoclatlon of Spirltualists rcconvened at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, with n fafr sttend- ance, in Grow’s Opora-Hall, 517 West Madison strect. An hour was spent in conference. Mrs. Severance presided, E. V. Wilson apoke fn re- gard to spiritual manifcatations, followed by Mr. Pope on Voudoolsm, e argued that the ministry and priesthood subjugated manhood. He had been subjugated by the tyrannical spirit of Brother Wilson, and had been kept down, but now ho hed been bidden to speak freoly, and the spirits of Wilson or Moody could not keep him down nny longer, He was an advo- cate of sucial {recdom, and his was a nature of OYO, E. V. Wilson rose to a polnt of order, and stated that the bane of every Conventiun had been disorderly spirits, Ile suld that every speech of Mr, ‘Popo hud been of s charncter to disturb conventfons, Je (Pope) bad heon clajmed to he youdooed, more by a wuman than aman. Mr, Popo had proved hlmself a fallure, 28 his own confession had proved. AMr, Follett spoke on the idea of the teachings of Jeaus of Nazareth, in regard to tho suwing of seed. Ho wanted Spiritualists to be carnest in thetr work, and thus sow the iood seed. J. McAuliffe, tho Communist, spoke In favor of Soclalisin, oml agaiust the presont system of coipetition, and fn favor of co-oporation. “Uhe_Becretary, E. V. Wilson, then read bis unnual re]wrl, which was accepted, Mrs, Wheat then sang @ue of her songs, en- titled % Ctear the Track." Cuopt, IL IL Brown followed with a lecture on the * Chemistry pf Character.” He argued thut each person Was responsible for his own churacter, and that the compelling of the im-. pelting power of the dual person—spirit and ody—wus splrit, which foreed the body to do ita bidding. Organlzation was mads by the muther at birth, und she stamped the desting upon her offspring before birth. He bheld thut the pre-natul deatiny waa unchangeavle, and yet oyvolutlou hud given men the power to chaige the deatiny ordafned, by education. No man could gecolnplishi auything, showever, without self-rellauce, sell-respect, and sell-contral, The Conventlon then sdjourned tll 3 o'clock in the afternoon, At 0 o'clock the Children's Trogressive Lyccumn liela its usual Bunday afternoon meet- uig, At 2 0'cluck the Canvention reconvened, with Mrs, Soveratce fu the chalr, 8hs deprecated personutities, wud sald that fres seoch wus an ulicnable right, but persoualltics were cn- I.lrcl{ out of orler.

The large hall contalned but fow empty scats, and the audiencs was one of unusual intefligence. The Iecture *was en- titted A Plea for Cheerfulness,” and Mr. Fiolds has no causc to complain of tho re- ception which mot his remarks If his taste and feelings harmonizo with bis treatment of the subject. The many humorous and cheerful onecdotes and Incldents which he related, and, through all, the cheertul expressions, selection of words, aond his manner, kept the housa in an almost constant smile. e wna frequently Iuterrupted by spplauso after having told of some doleful person or of some ludicrously solomn event, The lack of cheerfulness he regarded as a shortener of life and a cheorful disposition as a lengthener of ex- istence. The Americans were a very uncheerful )mos:(lc. and one cause of It was too much work, They went about cverything with o sobor-faced, melanchoiy kind ‘of enrncst- ness, and when hey lnughed it seemed to bognly by o persoual physical effort. It had been remarked by an Englishman that on Sundny the Americans wero not rellgions: thoy wero only stupid. People snid that they had no time to Jaugh’ no time to be cheerful, Therg was work td be done to corn bread for the wives and little ones. * But," sald the speaker, *“go without some of tho bread and llve upon laughter. Be cheerful, it only for the muscular exvreise. 8gem to be cheerful at least, and by much prac- tico you may becoms to be what you seem.”” o Biit, todo justico to Mr. Ficlds' lecture it Would be necessary to publisn it in full. It abounded 1in plcasantries, und arpunents for always looking on the Ubright slde of life, and for wearing o cheerful face, in advice to all people, and in great moral truths, Ono of the lecturer’sstates ments was that I ho were ns rich os Stewart or Astor lie should catabiish a Professorship of Cheerfulness in one of the large colleges of this country, and employ o Professor to instruct young men, for an hiour each day, upon the art of_belng cheerful. 1n the course of his remarks Mr. Ficlds spoke of his personal acqualntance with Dickens, and mentfonicd that the gifted author wos o cheer {ul, charitable man, liberal in his gifts to char- It{. and unusuelly considerate in "his treatment of tho popr, oveu golng so far as to nake It a point nét to dizappoint a Llpnnr streot beggar who, every Tuudn‘\: expected alms and a kind word or tio from him.
