The centennial ceremonies will commemorate ‘the establishment in America of the first house of the order. Its foundation was, however, on Jaly 11, 1790, when four ladies, three of whom ‘were Amoricans who had gone to Belgium to take nuns’ vows, landed in Maryland and took up their abode in Charles county near Port Tobacco, One of these was a Sister Bernardina, who was the order’ : first prioress.

When Messrs.

Both gentlemen returned to the St. Cloud. Mr. Toucey said that his callers had come with the object of arbitrating and be told them there was nothing te arbitrate, but he talked the matter of the strike over with them very fully. ‘The interview was a source of satisfaction to both sides.

New Yonx, Angust 20.—When the secret con- ference between Powderly and Devlin on part of the Knights of Labor and Mr. Toucey on part of the railroad company was over the two knights again held a long consultation with the four members of the council of railway employes. Just whether Mr. Toucey’s views proved favorable te them could not be Jearned, but it is certain he made some propositions to them which thea discussed at great length, he officials at the Grand Central depot had little to say about Mr. Powderly’s visit. “J's the old story,” said General Superin- tondant Voorhees, “and the same proposals of arbitration. Of course we have nothing to say in answer to these proj »posals. We have stated our policy all along aud we cannot recede from it. We hold that anything the railroad company has done so far was not only justifiable but right. Woe are getting along very nicely now and what is the use of making a fuss about it?

Mr. Edmunde—The Senator from Maine has (according to the newspapers) made it desir- able thatI should say a word. I agree with him that cowardice never won a battle, and I agree with him that cowardice never robbed a man and never did a forcible injustice to any- body; that is not what it does. There are two kinds of courage. One is that, having made up your mind that you want another man’s property, you go and take it and not be afraid of him. Another is that, having made up your mind te put a muzzle on everybody, at any time that it pleases own sweet will, you get the power to do it in advance. ‘That is not my kind of courage, I have that kind of courage thatI shall vote with the greatest satisfaction for the proposition of the Senator from Penn- svivania, aided (as I hope) by the votes of gen- tlemen of differont political opinions from mine—with the addition that we will consider oue other great public measure—greater than the tariff measure; more necessary to be ed of than the turiff measure. If it is at defeat it, if it is good, pass it. THE TARIFF BILL KNOCKS OUT THE QUAT BESO- LUTION. While Mr. Edmunds was speaking the clock in the Senate chamber struck the hour of 12, and thereupon the presiding officer (Mr. In- galls) laid before the Senate as “the unfin- ished business” the tariff bill, Mr. Aldrich was asked to let the tariff bill be laid aside temporarily until the pending reso- lution and amendments were disposed of, but he declined doing so, particularly as Mr. Evarts said that there were a good many remarks to be made in the Senate before the vote could be taken, and as Mr. Cullom added that he would also have something to say on the subject. None of the democratic Senators gave any sign or made any comment, éxcept when Mr. Pugh questioned Mr. Hoar's personal allusion, ‘The tariff bill was then taken up, the pend- ing question being on Mr. McPhersen’s amend- ment to strike out of paragraph 159, page 38 (referring to penknives, erasers and razors), the classifications and the compound duties, and to substitute a uniform rate of 45 per cent ad valorem. ‘The paragraph and the amendment to it gave rise te a long discussion. carried on by Messrs.
