Telegraph to the New and Observer. : Baxtihokx, July 4 The National Convention of the L9agae of Ieuio eratic Clubs met today in the Academy of; Music. It was 1 '2 45 p. m. before Charles Ogden, of Nebraska, who 'iJ been selected to nominate a temper ary chairman, advanced to the front of the platform and called the meet ing to order. After silence ha 1 been obtained Rev. J. T. Wightman, D.D., of ? Baltimore,; formerly of South Carolina, offered prayer. Mr. Ogden then delivered the following address: Cfcntletoen of (Ms Convention: : On this memorable day, crystalized into immortality by the genius of Jefferson, we have now to perpetuate the grand principles which he so pa triotically advocated and which have been the cardinal bulwarks of the Democratic party ! No day appeals mdre strongly to our emotions and our love of our country than the one which first saw the light of the Declaration of Independence. It was, therefore, most appropriate that, believers in the doctrines of that great and wise statesman should have been chosen on the occasion for its cdhventian which first shed the light of? human : liberty and pro claimed: to ; the : world the in alienable prerogative of individual citizenship. These doctrines are everlasting and indestructible. Time may momentarily bast a dark cloud over them, revolution may shake and mar them, but wherever man shall live and love liberty he will always be willing to lay down his life and sacri fice his blood in their defense and for their perpetuation. The Democratic party cherishes the' memory of its founder, it loves and reveres his name and by its organization it intends to bear "aloft the shield" of the princi ples Of human rights so closely inter woven with bis life aa to make all as saults on them fall helplessly at its feet.; You have assembled to perfect ' aid bring into, vigilant action the great mass of our citizens who believe as Jefferson taught that great principles like liberty can only live in the hearts and minds of individuals by constant ligilance. We now come together and by consultation and interchange of thought seek a plan which will aid those who desire to Join with us in disseminating the principles which we advocate. I hope that your delibera tions will be marked with order and with that liberty of conduct which we ask for. Ourselves, And when our convention is over, we shall have an organization which will be impregna ble against the assaults of the enemy and will conduce; to a glorious and triumphant election of Cleveland and Thurman. It remains for vou-to cut forth the 'system whereby that vigilance may be rendered perpetual. The formation of local societies, rep resenting the! sentiments and best po litical faith of indivinais tnrougnout the land can' accomplish this object I The delivery of Mr. Ogden's speech was frequently interrupted by ap plause.. - ; Ferdinand: C Latrobe, Mayor of Baltimore, delivered an address of Welcome. - ! Mr.. Ogden nominated the follow ing as temporary officers of the con vention: i I Chairman,! Hon. Wm. K. Russell, of Massachusetts; Secretary, D. 1 Carralho of New York;; Assistant Secretaries, Wm. H. Massep, J. V. L. Proyn, Samuel F. Ball, Edward H. Smith, Thos. E. 1 Wing, Jr.; Reading Clerks, Morrill F. Packard, John M. Tra'vers, John Kelly, 'of Baltimore; Stenographer, James F. Burke, of Pittsburg,' Pa) Sergeant-at-Arms, Jairies Flannery, of Maryland. They Were elected by acclamation. Mr. Russell was repeatedly inter rupted with applause, and at periods of his speech where the names of Cleveland and Thurman were men tioned the cheering was so deafening that it was several minutes before he could proceed with his remarks. It was moved 'that a committee of one from each State! and Territory be se lected by the delegation thereof to be appointed to act as a committee on credentials.; Adopted.

I Pasis, July j 4 The mption ex pressing confidence in this Govern ment, which was adopted by the Chamber of Deputies, yesterday, was carried by a vote of 270 to. 157, and not 326 to 172 as reported. The newspapers here agree that the vote has fortified the cabinet s position until the Chambers reassemble in October. Several of the papers re gard the vote as a fatal blow to the apportunists- In the future they say the struggle will be confined to the Radicals and Conservatives. A.

Philadelphia, Pa , July 4- Indepen dence Day was celebrated today in an extravagant manner under the direc tion of a citizens committee, which: raised, by popular subscription, $15,- I'UU for that purpose. The weather was charming, (with enough of a breeze to make it thoroughly "enjoya ble. At midnight the bell in the tower of historic Independence Hall was struck 112 times and was listened to by a large crowd of people who had patiently waited for its sound. From that time on until daylight people be- L " 1 L - '1 J 1 . gou iiu arrive in me city, sou uj sub- rise the streets presented a beautiful scene. Everybody was in holiday garb, and the sound of bugles, fifes and drums created an enthusiasm that could? or ly exist on the national birth day. At sunrise the Keystone Battery fired a single salute, and shortly after a trombone band stationed in the1 tower of Independence Hall in the the shadow of that beloved relic of revolutionary times, the liberty bell, sent forth patriotic music. In and around the old halls of Congress and and the seat of government a century ago guards in Continental uniform patrolled with dignified step and stately air, and lent additional beauty to the scene. At 9 o'clock the Firs); Brigade of Pennsylvania Militia pa raded the principal streets and were reviewed at Independence Hall by Alaior-tieneral Uartranft and staff. Another feature of the morning programme wbb a parade of nve hun. dred and fifty-two letter carriers of the Philadelphia postoface.

Hawley, of Connecticut; at the conclusion of which the bell in the State House steeple was again rung 112 times. A Varied Hatrtnaewlal t'areer. Cbtcaoo, July 4. The mystery sur- roundingthe alleged bigamist, James Wellington Aldrich Brown has been practically cleared up. He is charged with having twenty-three wives. He today announced' his willingness to leave his cell at the Armory and ac company an officer to Detroit without !1 it . , - . waiting tor me iormaiuy oi a requisi tions His decision was brought about by a visit from alleged wife 21,whose name is alary Uurneil, and whose conversation convinced Mr. Brown that no prosecution in Detroit would be more vigorous than in Chicago "Tea." he stud to a reDorter. "I will go back to Detroit and stand my trial there. There is nothing against me. 1 know nothing of naif tbe women they talk of, and whatever my rela tions with the other half may have been, can truly say that they will not be recognized by the law. Still I have enemies there. One man will proba bly shoot : me , on sight They can't protect me from him.. But if I escape him I will stand my trial.. Should I be acquitted, well and good. Should I be convicted, they can never make me work in the penitentiary. I will alwayB have a last recourse, and yon may be sure I will avail myself of it." ' "You will not commit suicide ?" "Yes, sir, I will. I would rather die a hundred times than be sent to prison for no crime." The first known of Brown's alleged bigamous tendencies wss in 1885, when he, already possessed of at least one living wife, it is charged, married Miss Ida Kelly, a pretty young wo man living on Jefferson Avenue, De troit. This was in the fall of the year, and a few months later he, it is said, deserted her and went to alus kegon, Michigan, where he was mar ried in January, 1886, to a lady of that town whose name cannot be ascertained. Miss Kelly followed him and caused his arrest, when, according to the story published here, he was Bent from the court t Saginaw to the penitentiary at Jack son, where he served nine months, and during his term of imprisonment made an unsuccessful attempt to end his life by cutting his throat with a razor. He inflicted a bad gash but was finally cured, though he still ears the scar. It was early in No vember, 1886, when he was released from the penitentiary and all trace of him was lost till January 15, 1887, when he made his appearance in l'on tiac, Michigan, and five days later, it is said, married Miss Annie M. Hazel, of that town. From there he tied to Detroit, closely followed by Miss Hazel's friends, including a brother, who is the man who threatened to shoot Brown on sight, and the fear of whom mado the prisoner unwilling to go back to Michigan.

' No business is done at the shipping office of Fuller's Patterson Express on Sunday, but Monday morning por ters get to work at 1 o clock prepar ing for the departure of the Old Do minion steamers. Yesterday morn ing George Reidy and a gang report ed for work, but before they shifted the first package Reidy saw that dirt had sifted between the heavy plat form over the gratings and the stone steps. He decided that when day light came he would have the refuse removed. A little while after 8 o'clock Reidy found a child's buttonless shoe at the west end of the platform. He stooped to pick it up and saw some thing dark beneath the heavy plank ing, completely stopping the space, wnose dimensions were not more tnan 12 by 7 inches. "Here, bovs." he cried, "we've got to clear the platform now; there s a bundle underneath it. The men chopped away the fasten- mgs and raised the mass of heavy boards. To their surprise they found the bundle to be nothing else than a little girl, not more than 12 years old, poorly but cleanly dressed and un conscious. She lay face downward. her left cheek resting upon her hand. One shoe was upon one of her feet, the other shoe Reidy had found. The strong men raised her as quickly and gently as they could and bore her within the office. Liquor was pro cured and forced between her teeth, but with no effect. , She still lay quite unconscious. At last a patrolman of tbe Leonard street station was called and the child was removed to the Chambers Street Hospital. Dr. Har ris, who received the patient, declared sue was Buffering from hysteria-epilepsy and that it would be several hours before she recovered. The men who found her declare that her rescue was the merest freak of chance. The platform had not been cleared of its rubbish for nearly a year, and Reidy'g suggestion that the dirt be removed was entirely unpremeditated. It was a mystery how the little one' succeed ed in Wedging her body within the exceedingly small space. In order to have got so far within the aperture she must have lain upon her stomach and, clutching the transverse grat ings, drawn herself by main strength within the hole. Then, seized by the hysteria because she was unable to extract herself, she remained uncon scious until found. It was not until shortly after 4 o'clock that the child regained con sciousness. ' Then she was given a warm bath, filled with nutritious food, given a brand new pair of shoes and stockings by one of the nurses, and a pretty little jacket of ecru cloth by another. After all this dressing and attention the little one showed how good looking she was. She had great blue eyes, brown hair, with golden shades in it, which had been carefully cut across the forehead, forming a straight bang, a straight and well formed nose, and full lips. The first words she uttered startled her - hear ers. She said she was German, had only been here about three weeks, and had been sleeping in the streets all that time. The surprise was oc casioned by the excellent English in which she said it. There was only a very slight trace of an accent. Then she continued her story, which the authorities believe to be absolutely false. She said she came from Dres den, Germany, where she lived in Kirch StraBse with her grandmother. Her name, she declared, is Mamie Groen. When she was 6 years old her mother died. Her father mar ried again, and two years later hor stepmother and her father died shortly after each other. , Last spring, she continued, an uncle named Gustave Lehmann, who has a farm and six children in Kan sas, eame to Dresden, took a fancy to her, and with her grandmother's con sent brought her to this country. They landed at Castle Garden three weeks ago last Friday. After remain ing in the Garden a day her uncle took: her out, and at nightfa'l sent her into a bake-shop to buy some bread. When she returned to find him he was gone. Since then, the child said, she has lived in the streets. Boxes along the piers have been her favorite resort. For food she begged pennies from ladies and spent them for cake. She lost her hat on Sunday in the wind-storm, and that night she was thoroughly exhausted. She declared she did not know how she got into the place where she was found. In fact, she professed to remember nothing that occurred after she lost her hat. Later in the afternoon she was taken to Castle Garden. When Su perintendent Jackson was asked whether she would be returned to Dresden, as she desired, he replied i "Not much. Her mother will pr a bly be down here tomorrow and i ke her home with her." atlTTRZLL. Th Y. Bl. O. A. Othar Motas. Cor. at the Mews and Observer. KittbhN. O, July 4.

Seek out and bring to light, and cheer those who are introducing new means and methods for home improvement and independence. A new move in the right direction has had a begin ning in our town and deserves public mention? Misses Kate Cheshire and Lossie McNair have opened a studio for the purpose of teaching China and other fine painting and decorating which heretofore has been done North. Yesterday your correspondent was shown through the beautiful little gallery where specimens of their wort were on exhibition. As this scribe knows little about such things, it will be impossible to give an adequate conception or description of what he saw. Suffice it to say that the tinting, painting and decora ting, in fact all the work, is of a very high order. Heretofore fine china painting and burning .has been very costly, and done only by a few per sons in Northern cities. These young ladies have purchased a kiln for burning the Chin-, etc, after it is painted. The article im first tinted, painted or decorated according to order or desire, and then placed in the kiln and heated to a white heat In this way the decorations are burned into the China and become permanent- in fact a part of the ar ticle itself. These enterprising young ladies propose not only to teach the art but to take orders for painting. An after-dinner coffee set, tile, odd cupa and saucers, dishes, cake plates, &o., which had been painted, gilded and burned were on txhibiuoa and de serve special mention. Painting in oil, water and mineral colors will also' be taught. Among specimens in this department special mention should be made of the "Witch's Daughter," !a copy of Church's great painting, by Miss Cheshire, A German Moonlight Scene and Sibyl, by Miss McNair . Time and space and other . essentials fail in attempting to give a description of the splendid enterprise and com mendable zeal of these aoomplished ladies. They open their school today with a goodly number of pupils. Among! the crowd of visitors I notice Mrs. Dr. J. H. Baker, Mrs. Nash, Miss Lizzie Battle, Miss Bia Clark, Miss Lizzie Porter, Judge H. C. Bourne and others. The stock company of the cotton factory was incorporated today with a capital stock, of $100,000. .The fac tory will be built immediately.

NoKTHJirLD, Mass., July , In response to Mr. Moody's intk . tation to spend two weeks with hint m Itible study and systematic reere tion, at his home away up here in ' Massachusetts, about 400 college students from the loading colleges and universities of the United States, England and Scotland are already assembled. The invitation was ex tended through the Internation Com mittee of the Young Men's Christian Association to members of College Associations and to all Bible students throughout the world. More than six hundred are expected to attend. ftortnheld is on the Connecticut nver, in the beautifully picturesque mountain region of the northern part of Massachusetts and is peculiarly adapted to the purposes of such an encampment. Rooms and meals are furnished to those in attendance in the Seminary buildings, and here also the meetings are held. The Assembly is wonderfully well equipped and organized and every thing that is necessary to the com fort and enjoyment of the delegates and visitors is at once provided. No meetings are allowed in the afternoon, the whole of which time is given to bodily exerciie in field sports, boating, mountain climbing or any recreation which the visitor's own sweet will may dictate. On yesterday we were addressed by Mr. Moody, Rev. II. Clay Trumbull and other distinguished Bible teach ers,; besides many representative col lege men from Edinburgh (Scotland), uxrora (HJngiand), Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Oberlin and other colleges and universities. : The singing is led by a male cho r of about sixty voices under the direc tion of Prof. Towner. Mr. Sankey is present, and is often called upon to sing, to which call he always re sponds, and then there are no eyes, no ears and no hearts but for Mr. Sankey. At the first conference your corres pondent and his fellows from our, own University were made to feel at home by the announcement by Mr. Moody that -"the meeting will be opened with prayer by Prof. Chas. E. Taylor, of North Carolina." The famous "three times three," of Yale, is sometimes .heard on the green, and the Bible and tennis rac quet keep close company. The encampment is noticeable for that rarely good combination of hard muscles, soft hearts, good heads, and earnest Christian spirit, and the fel Iowb go from the cricket, ground to the meetings clad .in knickerbockers and cricket caps and1 shirts believ ing that whatsoever their hands find to do, thai they Bhould do with all their might Mr. Moody' s power lies in his In dividual consecration, and in his strong, terse way of" putting) a thing. One of his expressions yesterday was that "if the archangel Gabriel were to come down here he would lose his character in six, mopibil showing uvw tu mum vuiuiuauuuicui um vum- regarded.
