He took elation, Xvil chapter, verse 14: all make war with the Lamb, and the Lain shall cvercome them; for he ts the Lord of lords and the King of kings; and tuey that are with Him are called, and chosen and faithtul.” ‘The theme of the sermon was the Yictory of the Lamb over his enemies. He deseriped, vividly, the victory of Gol over sin and hell, urging upon” all the necessity of enlisting under the banner of the Lord Jesus Christ, and of fleeing from the wrath of God, for he sald God would surely prove the victor over each soul in his presenee, either by love or by wrath. In closing, he made one of the strongest appeals to the unconverted ever heard at this cam ground—at the close of which he invited all tha Wanted to be on the side of love, peace and God to come forward. A large number went forward, three of whom were converted. A very large audience attended the last meeting, and a good feeling prevailed. The total number of conversions during the camp 1s seventy-flve. A FEW POLITICIANS were on the grounds this afternoon—not with an idea, so far as could be judged, of being spiritually benefited by the meetings, but to seek out and secure votes at the primaries which come off next month. If the Christians that attend camp would take lessons [rom some of the politicians and imt- tate the persistent manner In which they stick to @ Voter until, from sheer exhaustion, he promises to do anything they say, the number of converts might be swelled immensely. A THUNDER STORM. Last night a severe thunder storm broke over camp, alarming many of the tenters, especially the ladies. A large number of people arrived by the morn- Ing trains, and by noon several hundred had come in from the surrounding country. ‘The rough ele- ment that usually visits camp on the last night failed to put in an appearance this year, and everything was very quiet. AUII o'clock the presiding elder. Rev. J. F. Deale, In a feeling address, closed the reilgious exercises of thecamp. Tue choir sang the “Swest Bye- and-Bye,” after which the doxology was sung, the Denediction pronounced, the bell tolled, and the camp of '82 was a thing 6f the past. M. =< Amusements, Excursions, &c.

Minor, a mulatto, about 35 Years old, was In the dock at the Police'Court this morning, charged with indecently exposing him- self to a white girlin Judictary Square yesterday afternooa. Special Officer Mickle testified that his attention was called to J; mn by a little girl named Maggie Goltraan, of No. 622 5th street, who stated that every time she comes into the park she is insulted by this man, and he had then just made @ most indecent proposition to her. Maxyie, who 4S a good-looking, modest girl of 14 years, stated to the court that'she Is a nurse, and has occasion to go to tuts park every day, and when there Is no policeman in sight the prisoner acts in a grossly indecent manner. The prisoner took the witness stand, and dented the charge. ‘The court said that these parks are for decent people, and the public Wiil be protected against such criminals, and he Would impose the hizhest penalty known to the law—$100 or 90 days in the workhouse. ‘This af- ternoon an appeal was noted, and $300 bons were given for bis appearance before the Criminal our.

The prisoner dented the xe, and put on other witnesses for the defense, whose testimony was unimportant. Counsel for'the de- fense clalmed that lis client was exetapted from arrest by section 4,063, Revised Statutes, on ac- count of being a Servant of a foreign zninister. Prosecuting Attorney Moore claimed that accord. ing to section 4,065 the servant of a foreign min ter, to be exempt from arrest, must be born out of this country, or else be registered In the State de- partment; and as the prisoner was not acit:zen of any foreign country, or had never been registered in the State department, he would have to be treated as anyother defendant. The court im. posed a fine of $20 or 60 days in fall, and ordered restitution, and in default of restitution $20 or 30 days additional.

He Is now eighty-four years old, and with the ex- ception that his eyesight is somewhat impaired, is yet in a good state of preservation. He states that he was an apprentice to Joseph Gales in the printing business, and worked in the office of the Nationat Intevigencer when the British made their Tald on this city In 1814, and has a vivid recollec- tion of the scenes attending THE BATTLE OF BLADENSBURG, ‘out his Pain, exert_a wholesome, the stomach, which is a direct afd to digestion, at the ‘same time acting energetically on the liver and gently on the bowe!
