» THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY. JUNE 9, 1878—SIXTEEN PAGES office, N Black would have had a good BOSTON. Last Ticbits from the Anniversary BDays. Tirs, Szrgent’s Reception~-Distinguish-- ed Group of People. Mr. George William Curtis at Music-all. The Rev. Joseph Cook Gets a Sly Hit. Erimstone Cormer and Adirondack Nurray---Folitics, Etc. From Our Own Correspondent. Bostox, June G.—1he last of Anniversary- Week fultilled the old traditions, ufter all, in a remular old-fashioned pouring raim. It com- wmeneed, very unfortunately, ouw Decoration- Dar, and kept it up through the evening, thus very seriously inconvenienane those who lived at -a distance in their attendance at- Mrs. Sar- vent’s annual Reception aud the Unitarian Festival. The decoration exercises were, of course, observed at the various Posts after their nrranged programmes; and at Music-Hall there wwas a large attendance to bear Georze William Curtis deliver the address of the day. At Mrs. Earrenvs, aleo, there was a throng of visitors daring the wisely-sppointed hours of **from 1 to 4" But tlc rain kept away u number of gubnrbans from both places, and hindered s good many charming toilettes. The term twizely-appointed ours,” in connection with NES. SARGENT'S RECEPTION, will be readily understood when it is explained that these hours were ciosen 5o 2s to leave am- ple opportunity for those who were “‘due” at 1he Unitarian Festival to come and 2o at their pleasure. And fo it happened that Georgo ‘William himself Jent his gracious presence for a Yittle while in the Chestnut-street parlors, be- fore he went his way to the platform ot Music-Hall. > What a group the great parlors showed: Heury W. Longfellow, with his white head and patriarchal beard; Mr. Alcott, with that cbild- like and bland,” smooth-shaven fuce; Oliver Wendell ' Holmes, smug, smirk, and smiling, Jookiug as he always does, and as, I fancy, be will to the Jast of Ius days,—a boy in the inidst of his white-headed contemporaries; George Willizm Curtis, with his refined face, whereon the work aod wesr of his faithful, busy life are bezinning to tell visibly in_the_lines bere and there; Frothingbam, of New Yori, with his tranquilcquipoiée of manner. Lis cultivated face, and qmiet humor; and Lydia Maria Child, whom I ought to have placed first in my list, IN DEFERENCE TO THE GALLANT RULE, PLACE AUX DAMES. There were scores of others,~clergymen, liter- ary e, and journatists,—but whom we can't count here beside these shinin:x stars. ‘The rumor that Curtis was to be present brought out a wreat many ladies whom the storm would otherwise huve housed. Rat 10 woman will miss George William, of “ Eusy~ Chair” tame, if she can help it. Some one present, in teviewing this group afterwards, asked the question—or rather considered it—as 10 which of the illustrious four of this sroup was of the most importance, or wielded the most influence in the worid st the preseat time, ‘The general conclusion was that Mr. Curtis was 1his most fwportant_person, in consideration of dis wide field_in Harper's Weekly, ond his high stand always from that position iu the politics of the country. One differing voice de- clared for Mr. Frothingham. Toereasons given werc ot fnapt. Alr. Frothingbam, it was de- clared, though not before the public 43 & max- uzinist, or 3 newspaper-writer, or us a popular lecturer, was yearly drawing'to him tke best rainds of New York as listencrs st bhis Sunday discourses. By best minds was meant the vo, alive, well-balanced minds who are attally the balance-power of any community. Ths printed sermons, too, were going hither ued thither, Fast and West, and were product- ive of the same results of liberal culture which is the root of all real power. But. notto eater further into this discussion now, LET T3 GO TO MUSIC-HALL WHEN MR. CURTIS GOES, and note his effect upon hfs andience, and take away with us some of the good things he says. Sonichody bas said that it is worth more than most sn ers’ whale lectures to hear Curtis £ay, asbe looks about upon thezudience, *'Ladics Gentlemen.”? Being the presiding ofticer of the accasion, the audience at Masic-Hatl had the full benetit of this mellifluous seutence in the opening of his address without otaer dis- 1raction of Tormula. Most people, I suppose, know that Mr. Curtis has for the last two or three years been in the habit of reading a ser- mun Irom toe unoccupled puipit of the Unita- rian Church at New Brighton, Staten Island, where he lives. He alluded to this very bappily iu the opening of his rewmarks, saying that, as he Jooked about him from the platform upon which he stood, he hardly kuew whether be siood there in his clerical or lay capacity. “But I suppose,” hesaid, ** that on anoceasion that is to Lring in socia. rcunion the pulpitsand the pews, it is thought aesirable to put in this place the only man, possibly, in the whole hall I who belouss to neither; aud so, if you will take the questivn as a prece of ceclesiastical evolu- tion simply.—the last link on the way FLOM THE PEWS TO THE PULPIT,— it would probably be a solution.” He gave a very zood definition of Unitarianism as “The intellectual movement that shows con- stantly more aud more the identity of morality fon.” 1t values claracter more than creed, and it declares—1 think 1 may venture to sy it, since 1 am told that our excellent fricnd, the Rev. Mr. Cook, i in Cincinoati— that there is no saving grace in any esthetic cmiotion whatever, unless It produces righteous living.” Another good pont that the orator made, not as an orator but as a philosovher, was when he said that he therciore looked to find the rrowth of Unitarianism, not in the fnerease of scctarfanism, but in the relaxation everywhere of the scctarian fecling. He then muile very bumorous allusion 1o the old Park-street corner aud Adiromlack Murray, 1n this wise: *3ixty yeurs azo. here in the City of Boston, 30t a hubdred miles from the vlatform on ahich 1 stand this romeat, there was a famous place which in the bistory and tradition of this acirhborbood was kuown as * BRISISTONE CORNER,” and 1lcarn that 1o-day a very considerable por- tion of our good friends who were accustomed Lo be fed at that corner Lave actually succeeded iu faver of a preaching that has no - sul- pliureus fumes whatever, but is as swect, aua ure, and wholesome es the Junc woods of the Adirondacks.” Of couree this neat little hit brought down the bouse; and then Mr. Curtls went on to spoak of the dedication of Trinity Church fn Boston lust vear, where men of differing faiths, bLut of fraterual spirit, juiued torether i the dudication exercises. This, he thourht, showed the tendency of the times. iie then alluded to Dr. Chennihg, who, siXty years ayro, went to New York to preach, and ot a cbureh was open to Lim, and the only place ia which that terrible jconoclast was able to put Lis foot in order that be wiglt open his mouth was_the lecture-room af the College of Physiclans and Surzeons, while at the sume time the great master of the arthiodox faith in that city,—the grest master of puipit oratory,— THUNDERED IN XIS PCLPIT &t Dr. Chuaniug 8s a betetic or an Atheist. Yet, within the last few weeks, in the Suuday- gchool Toom of the church that sprung irom Dr. Clianuing’s preaching, 1 have seen the chiots of New York orthudoxy to-day joinirg in cordial co-ojeration with Unitarians in words of charity and sympathy for the sick and suffering, for ke poor and the prisoner: and, 2s I sat there snd watehed Dr. Bellows aud Dr. Jobn- Hall, § couid not but think of sixty ¥ears azo and Dr. Cuuuning and Dr. Jobin Mason, and redected, if 1 would tind a true estimate of the progress of the faith which is dear 10 you, I must not took, knowing what Unitarianism defines, for 3 sect but a spirit; that it is ot a dozma, but on in- Suence; thaty l‘{ I !&luld find its growth, T must not look ouly for the multiplic: Inita- '5:5‘“,“”“'“"“’; iplication of Unite- Chis was add very true of what Uni i oueht to be; but T think that mosLL n‘fififlf»:: Relimious Aesociation could tell tates of Cuoita- rian treaznient—to putit mildly, 1 will call it *1nhospitality o their thousht "—whic] ;-.' ‘lhf I;:xmfims i:} ll:lc same place tow: dicals that the orthodos s 23 £ ol‘[ s Lietathoos sects held fu regard course, Mr. Curtis aid not forzet that it was Decoration-Day. biloe i i i In the course of his re- T CROUGUT 1N HIS REPUBLICAN PRINCITLE: b and, in allusion to the real cause of the \l;sa'r hat made this Decoration-Day, he culogized Lincole, acq Sumaer, and John Andrew, and speke of the bread snirit in_which they would hare et the lingering hostility of sections. 1t thev ore Jiving to-day. he said, they would onof Massachusetts,—men of the. nation,— men whose cause was the cause to which to-day is conseerated,—it is for you to remember that that Adminfstration is Decessarily your Ad- ministration.

Then followed an address from a layman, Mr. Curtis Guild, in welcome 1o the clergy, and a £peech from the Rev. Mr. Calthrop in response; and then Mr. Brooke lerford spoke of the re- lations of the West to the East, and thanked the East for what it had done for the West, and spoke of the orthodoxy of the West. e suid it was honey-combed through with disbelief, and the orthodox people with whom he wus brought in contact seetied desirous of impressing upon him the fact that they did not differ trom him much after all. Aud so the meeting came to a close, as [ must come now tothe close of this article, with all the Auui influcnces ringing like so many bells of pleasiut welcome and promise in tiie AN ILLINOIS HERO. Skeich of Gen. George Rogers Clarke, the Captor of Knskuskia. Alton (IL.) Telcgravh. In a previous article we have spoken of the conquést of Illinois from the British in 1778, aud will add a brief sketch of Gen. Geurge Rogers Clarke, who commanded the Virgmia forces {n that campafgn. Gen, Clarke, one of the founders of Kentucky, was also one of the most distinguished of the early settlers of the West., He was born in Albemarle County, Virginia, in 1752 Hebegan life as s surveyor, and subsequently served in Dunmore's war. [le first visited Kentucky in 1775, and located there permanently in 1 He bad previously made extended cxolorations of the Western country, and was thoroughly acquainted with tbe Indian babits and character. Deeply imbued with anxiety for the future of the young Commouwealth which be had made his bome, e early became aware that the salvation of all the settlements west of the Allezheny Mount- afns depended upon the capture from the British of the forts ot Detroit, Vincennes, and Kaskas- kiz. It was from these points that the British sent forth those Tudian expeditions which leid waste and destroyed the homes of the pioneers. In 1 Clarke became aware that a gigantic coalition of all the Indian tribes of the West aud South was beinz organized by the British for a combined atiack upon the strugziing Esstern Colonies. Hosw to break up this coali- tion was the problem be was called upon to solve. He soon became convinced that by the capture of the British posts in Iilinols and on the Wabash a barrier would be placed between the ludians of the North and those of the West and South, aud the coalition of Lhe varfous tribes be thus preveuted. Full of this project, Clarke started for the Capital of Virainia {n the fall of 1777; bad a conference with the Governor, Yatrick Heury, and the Lezislature, who warmly approved s scheme. e was suthorized to culist troops for-the expedition, and in the course of a_few monihs bad organized four companies of froutiersmen, Wio readezrouzed at the Falls of the Ohio. We have previously spoken of the brilliant campaign which follower the capture of Kaskaskia, on July 4,1778; of t] tuking of Cahokia und other towns in Illinois; of the terrible tarch on Vincenues in February, 1779, and the capturc of the post after a_severe battle. Clarke not only conquered the Iilinois country, but he beld it true to the American allegiance. e established a.republican form of Government; wade the French settlers his devoted allies; amd struck such terror to the Indian tribes throughout the West by his warlike deeds that they abandoned the British alliance iocontinently. Clarke’s suceess in breaking up the great coalition of Indian tribes was complete. By his courage, address, and military skill, he prevented the threatencd on- set of savage foes, led by British captains, which was designed to overwhelm the border colonists from New York to Georgia. cause a diversion of Continental troops to the West, and thus render the conquest of the Colonies by the British reg- ulars an casy matter. This scheme, which was concocted Ly Gor. Hamilton, the British com- mander of the Northwest, was_probably the kreatest Indian conspiracy ever formed in this country. sud, had it been carried out, the War of the Revolution would either bave been fn- definitely prolonged or would have had a_dif- ferent termination. Clarke compietely frustrat- ed thiz scheme by bis conquest of Illinos, apd gent its concoctor, Gov. Hsmilton, whom he captured at Vincennes, a prisoner to Virginia. “But for Clarke’s army of fearless Virziniaus,” says Mr. Peck, “the union of all tribes, from Maine to Georgia, might have been effected againstthe Colonies,and the whole current of our listory changred. The conquestof Clarke changed the fice of affairs in relation to the country nortli of the Ohio River. which would, in_ail vrobability, bave otherwise been the boundary Dbetween the United States and Canada.” After the capturc of Vincennes, Gen. Clerke planned the reduction of Detroit, but was pre- vented by the inability of the Governor of Virginia to farnish him the nevessary troops. Duriug the remainder of the Revolutionary War Gen. Clarke was engaged in various wilitary expeditions, mainly agaiost the Inaians north of thc Obio River. He was subsequently a Major-General in the French service in Atnori- ca. Alter au eveatful carcer, filled with great and aaring deeds, he died in 1818 at his home in Kentueky, ond is buried near Louisville. Gen. Clarke had &1l the attributes of a natural Jeader, aud was loved aud trasted tothe utmost by his soldiers. When he made the conquest of Tllinois he was a_young man’ of only 26, but ha evinced wilitary talents second to mo com- ander among the Continensal Generals. His wias the grandest figcure of our border history, and bis mewory should be revered by every m. He jt was who conquered this ‘paradise from foreimn oud savage focs, whoopened the gatesfor LU eager inunigrant to coter and possess the land. The great deeds of this man should be fittingly commemorated at the coming centenniai auniversarfes the nest 4th of July, and bis name and fame committed 10 the watchful carc of future generations.

It consists siply of a plain straight picce of very fine linen cambric or of sheer Swiss about twelve inches wide and & yard or a little more in lepgrte. It may be finished around the edecs by a narrow Valenclennes edging or a_ wider one of fine Torchon Ince. Tuis scarf-like ur- raugement is to be loosely twisted about the bead ina mannerto leave exposed the front and sides of the bair, and a portion of the back if destred. It is jmpossible to describe the sin- uous, graceful folds which this capis made to nssume, but many ladies possess this most desirable facility of arrangement 0. " which resolves iuto a bewildering, graceful, and becoming article. even so plain and simple o thing as u stralght piece of linen. One of the most fashionable, as well a3 onc of the prettiest, articles of lugeric is a fichu cape of black lace, which is suitable for accomparing almost any dress, and is particularly well-itted to be worn with a black suk or any of the light pretty lawn tollettes. It has the shape fu the back of a small pointed cape, crosses the shoul- ders to the front. aud here upou the bust has one ead folded ouer the other. These ends are then passed to the back, where they arc loosely knotted, aud then fall sash-like upon the dress. The tichu itself is made of black Brussets net, upon which are appliquo designs, such as may be sugzested by the tastc of the wear- er. A row lace, surmounted by insertion. iluishes the edees of the fichu, nod a bow with cnds of Dlaek watered ribbon ornaments the ba ‘This attractive article requires in its con- struction but simple materials, and a little time and ingenuity, and well repays for both. There are few prettier things to be scen now-s-days than the NEW STTLES OF NANDRERCHIEFS. They ore so very datuty fn fabric aud coloriog that they add to the charm of ouc’s toilette materially, and make one thankful that the days are passed and gone when it was consider- ed an indecorum to produce one in company. Some of the prettiest have striped borders, the stripes running perpendicular to the centre. Ladles who regard us important all the little details of a handsome toilette (and justly, for no toilette is completo without attention to them) have mouchoirs to matech each dre: One pleasing one has 2 broad hem-stitched border, above which run half dozen horizontal lines of pink and blue, both pale and pretty shades. At intervals along the broad hem rua clusters of lines meeting the former at rizht angles. Auother stylo has a centre of plain linen cambric and a border com- posed of alternate stripes of fine necdle-work and Vulencieunes iusertion. Some very hand- sowme ones have either the needie-work or in- sertion replaced by clusters of tucks in fine linen cambrie. Outside . cuffs daily grow in favor. Ladies in mourning wear plain broad bands of white Swiss or crepe-lisse, with a wide hemn- stiching top and bottom. Others are somewhat hointed on the back and bave a pretty lace me- dalion appligue upon it, while o narrow Valeu- ciennes edging furnishes the borders. Sull others have bunches of tucks upon the back or outer side of the broad cufl aud an edging of fine Torchon lace. The Leavy lace known as Lussiau point snd Uy half dozen other names 5 also very popular for outsides cuffs and deep eollars. - There is a large variety in these Janer, aud the reater part of them are pretty, stylish, aud becominz, There are circular ones, ones having long points iu froct, others square upon the back and with square coruers in front, and othiers ‘*too numerous to mention.” Oue very attractive and novel collar has a cluster of box- pleats at the back of the ncek, u row of inser- tion running through the centre of the collar, and a lace to correspond bordering the edes. Some_extremely pleasing tics, which may be wora with these and_other collars, are mude of Freoch cambric or very iine white linen lawn. They are folded fiat and narrow, like a gentle- man’s cravat. ‘The ends arc cut in tine scallops and :are edged with narross Valeociennes, and upon the tie itself is embroidered some tiny de-~ sign or flower in white or in colors. It has been the custom of late years to look with mild cou- tempt upon “taliing” lacc as a garniture, save, indeed, amouz school-girls, with whom it is{. 1 believe, & ' chronic manfa. But if “these devreciators of tattiug could sec some of the beautiful thread searfs which I have scen Lam sure the signt would bring about n better regard for its merits, These tatted scarfs are fine as point lace, and ossess as much delicacy of design. Those who have seen the work of the shuttle in the narrow edgings usually made would scarcely belfeve that the same little fustrument manipulated by dexterous fingers had_wrought these fairy- like webs. One udvantage they possess is thut careful washing and time improve them rather thun otherwise. ) TIE SIMPLER TOILETTES designed for morning wear At summer resorts are delightfuily fresh and pleasing. At many watcriug-places, for fostance Saratoga, the morning welk is almost the importaut feature f the day. Hence these dresses, or many of hem, are particularly adapted for outdoor wear. A pretty fancy for cobancing their beauty has just been inaugurated; it is to baye & parasol made of material like the dressand ornawented with a narrow ruflie of the same or a row of Valenciennes or fine Torchon. In most cases a bunch of flowers or willowy grasses will surmount the top. A very pretuy toilecte is of fine French cambric, a nar- Tow stripe of rather pale green and white. Tho skirt is made s pretty walking length, and around the bottomn is cut in squares, every fourth obe being removed. These squares are bound with plain green, and are finisbed by o narrow lace. Bencath themis a pleating of plain_green about onc-fourth vard deep. The overdress is a scarl draped about the figure and haviog the bottom cut and trimmed to match the skirt. The waist has a yoke of plain gre cawbric, which Is cut outin squares and fal over the lower part of the waist. ‘Tois is gath- 9 comi ered on quite full, and is confined to the waist by ! tained by applying to them at th a belt formed of several folds or pleats of green. The hat to accompany this pretty dress is a % rough-and-ready” straw ofa peculiar yellowish tinge, The brim on the left is upturned und on the right droops. In front it is indented like the Marle Stuart bounet, and is cxcessively be- It has the brim faced with a shirring of grecn silk to mateh the dress, and the crown is ornamented by a heavy straw cord and o half* wreath of green leaves. © This_dress has one of the novel parasols I mentioned. Tt is heremade of the striped goods, and is bordercd by a fine pleating of plain’ green, which is itseif lace- edged. Another charming demi-toilette Is of blie organdy with irrezulnr cloud-like effeets s of whit¢, an extremely pleasing and novel fab- rie. The skirt bere is made quite lone iu the hack, too long I think, for it wildraw its pretty length over dewy grasses and dusty zravel with little improvement., The back is ‘ruflled up to the waist with Praduated flounces, cach flounce being cut along jts lower edge in Jargre shaliow scallops. These are bordered by an inch-wide row of very fine Swiss Freuch em- broidery. The front and sides of the skirt are at the bottom cut in similar rounded scallops, bencath which shows a balavense_of Swiss which extends all uround the skirt. Save this, the front and sides are perfectly plain. rhe walst s in the back a close-fliting one, conlined by a belt of blue ribbon beneuti 8 broad Swiss insertion. In front itis the same, except that there is an inserted picee wnich is wathered full, and forms a square neek, for it docs not come as high us the throat. It is confined at the waist and ueross the bust by strips of the ¥French em- broidery. The sleeves are.rather ehort, thouzh not quite elbow sleeves, and are finished by a ruille of orzandy edged with the Swiss embroid- ery. Amost DAINTY LITTLE TAT will be worn with this. It is o very fine Enclish straw, broad-brinmed as a Leshorn, and caught up a little to the left of the froot with a lovely turquuise buckle. ‘The sole garniture is a ver; tull'und beautiful wreath of forget-me-nots. A parasol of a fine white material embroidered with a profusion of the same lovely blossom is the crowning charm of the costume und the pride of the fair wearer, the work of whose hands it is. Onc more dainty dress and I have done—for the moment. A white fabric, un- Lkuown bv pame, but very, very pretty, is the basis. The skirtis short, that’is, the back is barely demi-train. aud has firss a gathéred ruf- fle, thien u parrower one, and above this a jull frayed-out ruching of the goods mingled with similar ones of pale fawa-colur and blue. Each rutlle has also a double piping very oarrow of th two. ‘They are stlk,of alight summer quality. The overdress is an aprou-front, trim- med with the cntire garniture that ornaments the skirt. The back 1s shawl-shuped, that is, after being looped, it slows wwo long und slender points that have a most graceful . effect, They are simoly finished by the pipings of fawn-color and bluc. The coat is the same dehightful garment that we have received with sowarin 2 _welcome. It has deep cuffs formed of many alternate folds of the two silks. The buttons are erochet, com- bining the two colors. The vest is of novel ar-~ rangement, being formed of alternate folds of fawn aud blue, so disposed that they form to n point in the immediate front. The effect Is very pleasing. The little Marie Stuact bonnet wort with this s of white chip, trimmed with folds of fawn-tiuted silk and a garlund of de- ticious blue blossoms. The wloves worn with thif toilette are white undressed kid, and are handsowely embroidered upon the buck with pale blue and fawn color. They are buttoued up the outside of the arm,—a favorite styl: glove just at present. MaTHE S, SOCIETY TOPICS. Tasanlty 1s no cause for divorce in Wisconsin.

At the reception given by the Iflinois Club at their new club house, No. 401 West Washington street, last Friday evening, the beauty and wenerul excelience of the furniture and window drapery was the subject of universal admiration. The W.W.Strong Furniture Compauy, who had entire clarge of the furnishing of this housé, o5 well asof the new quarters of the Caolumet Club on the South Side, recetved no end of praise from the ladies for the clegance and artistic taste with which all the difterent apartments were arranged and fitted up.
