In September, 1883, the famous Crocker’s Iowa Brigade, of which Gen. Belknap was president, held a reunion at Cedar Rapids, fowa. At this re- union, among other stirring events, was enacted a ‘scene that Was widely commented on and aj Plauded in Iowa and neighboring States. By Special arrangement Gen.

Discontent in Hawai, KALAKAUA’S SUBJECTS ON THE BKINK OF REVOLUTION. News from Honolulu, brought to San San Fran- cisco by the steamer Australia, which arrived yes- terday, shows that the government there has been searching for and detaining arms on the Ground of public safety. Itis asserted that the people have becomne exasperated at the King’s ac- Eloi forciiying the palnce wals and. takfag’ supplies of ammunition there, and that the Ameri- can and British residents have appealed to their respective governments for protection, and 5 ‘The other $75,000 to the im- pent to him for his approval, ‘8 bill was a by whieh ‘civic Wass tO DS established.

The President Reconsiders the Matter and Rescinds his Order, ‘REASONS WHICH INFLUENCED HIM—OONGARSS HAS THE POWER TO DISPOSE OF THE FLAGS—HOW THR ‘NEWS WAS RECEIVED. ‘The following letter was sent to the Secretary of War by the President yesterday in regard to {he disposition of the tags captured by the Union forges during the late war: have to-day considered with more care than when the subject was orally presented to me the action of your d 6 direct ing letters to be addressed to the of all the state offering to return, tothe loyal States of the Union vernors t capt PS, ‘Confederate states flags céptured by the Union forces, all of which for many years have been packed in Ot the “War Departanent. °t Simot tho. opin am r) ion that the return of the in the manner (hus contemplated ts not authorized Dy law nor justified ag an executive act. I requ therefore, that no further steps be taken in thé matter, xcept to examine and taventory these age ana measures for their preser- vation. Any direction. a8 tothe final disposition of them should originate with ‘Yours, truly, GROVER CLEVELAND.” In consequence of the President’s rescinding the order to return the flags, the intended application by Messra, Boutwell and Shellebarger for a man- tans Will not be made. They found tempos. Sible to prepare the papers in time to file yester- day, and now It s unnecessary. HOW THE NEWS WAS RECEIVED. ‘There was great rejoicing in Columbus, Ohio, when a dispatch was received announcing that the President had countermanded the order to re- turn the battle flags. Gov. Foraker received un- limited praise for the prompt action he took in the mater. Calls had been issued in many places for meetings of Grand Army posts to against the contemplated action of the War Department, Dut the meetings were postponed when the an- nouncement was received that. the President had Tevoked Gen, Drum's order, SENATOR SHERMAN SPEAKS, Senator Sherman, speaking at Mansfeld, Ohio, of the feeling of the Union soldiers concerning the battle flags, said: “Their flags, their triumph, and thelr sacrifices are thelr pride and glory. ‘This Administration does not appreciate this feeling, and cannot understand it. ‘heir hope, their atm, and their pride seem to be in the principles that were defeated by the Union army and tn sympathy with Confederate ideas, ‘They think it very strange that Union soldiers should be moved by the return of rebel flags won in battle, and do not seem to appreciate that this surrender 13 a mark of regret that the flags were won. I doubt if any case in history can be found where such a con- fession was made by the successful party. If the President thinks this is a trifling matter he will be greatly mistaken. The sentiment of patriot- ism is stronger than party tes.” NOTES FROM VARIOPS STATES. Gov. Rusk, of Wisconsin, has written to Gen. Drum, requesting that the flags captured by the Wisconsin troops be returned to the State. Gov. Martin, of Kansas, telegraphed a protest to the President yesterday against the return of the Confederate tags. 4 resolution was introduced in 1@ Michigan legisiature yesterday, calling upon. the President co Rescind the order. Meetings wore held in Illinois, California, Massachusetts and other States, and resolutions discounte. hancing the’ revurn of the flags. Gov. Thayer, of Nebraska, telegraphed a protest to the President. At the G.'A. celebration at New Haven yester- day, at which were Commander Fairchild, Gen. Lounsberry, Gen. Sheridan, Gen. Sherman and Senator Hawley. Commander Fairchild made a Speech, concluding by saying that he spoke in de- fenso, Of the Southern people, whom he felt sure would feel insulted ‘by having those flags thrust upon them. Gov. Lounsberry Said that he should enter a 8 protest against the removal of any flags from the capitol at Hartford, and the Stave Would never consent to their removal, 4 DISPATCH FROM GOV. FORAERR. Gov. Foraker sent a dispatch to the Philadel phia Press saying: 1 could stand the rehabiittation of Jefl. Davia and the joining of him and Cl a ineclogies of Seimoam: ep peace while Rosser was eri dan tokeep out of te sheunndoan Vatley snd Henry Watterson was speaking of the dey lent Pension bill as a, 1niment to abolish vagaboudage Y pensioning a lot of tramps; but I began to lose my temper when the President of the United ‘States went fishing on Decoration Day, and made Up my mind that ‘the time has come to draw the line when in ignorance or defiance of the law he usurped authority to order the rebel flags re- turned to the seceding States. Not that I have any affection for the dirty rags, but because they are emblems of treason that are wanted for no other purpose than public parade and to fire the South- ern heart with pride fora lost cause that ought never to be recalled except with shame, because it was the crime of the age. ‘The people of Ohio are not ready to recognize the Southern Confeder- acy, and they do not intend to dose. This State will not surrender any rebel flags, THE SUMNER EPISODE. In 1872 Senator Sumner attempted to abolish the emblems of internal strife by the introduc- Sion of a resolution in the United States Senate, that the names of battles with fellow-citizens shall not be continued in the Army ster Or placed on the regimental colors of the United States. ‘The Massachusetts legislature then passed resolutions denouncing the action of the Senator, Dut the day before Sumner died, 1874, the legis: lature revoked its resolutions of condemnation, GOV. LEB’S SENTIMENTS. A special to the Baltimore Sun from Richmond, says that Gov. Fitzhugh Lee, in discussing this matter last night, said: ‘Southern battle-fiags aid Rot originate with Southern soldiers, While they would have accepted again their banners bathed in the blood of brave com they recognize that flags captured in battle are the property of ‘the victors, and are content to let them remain in thelr cl Flags captured from Northern troops by Southern soldiers have been returned. The country should not again be agitated by pieces of bunting that mean nothing now. The uth is part and parcel of the Union to-day, and means todo her part toward increasing the pros- erity and maint the of the republic, Whether the flags rot in ington or are re- stored to their former custodians. If any man hauls down the American flag shoot him on the spot; but don’t let us get into trouble because Other flags simply change thelr resting place. ‘They will not go into the of standard bear- ers.” GRN, SHERMAN AND GEN. PATRCHILD. The N. ¥. Sun to-day says: The denunciation by Gen. Luctus Fairehtid, commander-in-chiet of the G. A. R,, of President Clevelana’s order that the ¢aptured Confederate battle flags now held by the War Department at Wa: bereturned to the Southern States, raised an echo all over the coun- try yesterday. Gen, Fatrentid himself abated not a Jot of his fire in the matter, though his early de- parture for New Haven soon put a stop to the ex- citement about the Fifth Avenue Hotel, Before he went he had @ long talk with Gen. W. T. Sherman. Gen. Fairchild was able to seé the re- porters for a moment only, but he sald: “I have never mixed up politics wit q mander of the G. A. R, and have been Yery, Particular about ‘stiriing up sectional feeling by actions or sayings, But what I sald night 1 deemed, it my duty to say, and tosay asIdid. ‘hese flags were captured battle and given to the War for safe Keeping. _I believe the governors of the once Con- federate States would not receive them, but would send them back. | How can they It guage.

His sudden death gave rise to a rumor that his death was the result ofa blow on the side of his head, which he had said was inflicted by a man, and Coroner Patter- son was notified, Lint came to this city about ten years m Somerset, Pennsylvi jad been employed as a galvanized-tron. worker at Stockstill’s establishment on @ street.
