It la entitled "The Justice of My Position,” and is a reply to unfavorable criticism mwlc by certain of his oorreepondents on lectures delivered by him .recently in Boston and Lynn, Mass. Mr. Powderly says: “I know I am riglit. 1 know that in re fusing to even touch a drop of strong drink I was and am right. In refusing to treat another to liutt wlileh I do not believe to be good for myself to drink I - know that I am right. In not allowing a rumseller to gain admittance into the order of the Knights of Labor! know that l am right. In ad vising our assemblies not to rent halls or meeting rooms over drinking places I know that I am right. 1 have done this from the day my voice was tlrst heard in the council halls of our order. My iiosiilon on the queslibn of temperance» ' ' of our . . >right»- I sin rVs termined to maintain it, and will not alter it one jot or tittle. I know that in the or ganization of which I am the head there are many good men who drink, luit they would be belter men if they did not drink. Ten years ago I was hissed because I ad vised men to let strong drink alone. They threatened to rotten egg me. I "have con tinned to advise men to be tcm|>crate, and. though I have had no experience that would qualify me to render an opinion of the efficacy of a rotten egg a* an ally of the rum drinker, yet 1 would prefer to hayc my exterior decorated from summit to l>nse with the rankest kind of rotten eggs rather than to allow one ijrop of liquid villainy to pass my III*. "Ten years ago the cause of temperance was not so respectable as U is to-uay, U cause there were not so ninny reapectablt men and women atlvmallng it. It ha^ gained ground. It is gaining ground, and all Istwusr men and women who hallswv in it conk! not la- brow -baak-n or frightened.

C., the first week in August next. The society will bold its business meet ing on Wednesday, the 3d. The regular programme of essays and discussions by the society will take place on Thursday the ith, this day being assigned by tl arranging committee as iho State Agri cultural and Mechanical Society Day, Aayon are aware, it has lieen our cus tom to have a reproeentatiou of three delegates from each county. While we wish to urge upon the members to see to it tliat each county sends a delegation at'the same time we call your attention to the fact that this is a meeting of the society, and all members are entitled to be present, and wo hope as many will attend as possible. This inter-Stafe farnflOTB* summer en campment meeting has been so thor oughly advertised that it is unnecessary to say more than to urge as many as K asiole to be present. It will be the gest concourse of farmers proper that has ever assembled for the purpose for which this meeting is organized; it will be fraught with various matters of ma- teiial interest to all farmers, and it is eminently proper, if not absolutely nec essary, that your society be fully repre sent'd, it living the only “simon pure” agricultural organization in the State that has for its object the tliscuadou and development of purely agricultural sub jects, aud of matters that apply to tuc farmer’a every-day life. It ia true we have the order of the Patrons of Husbandry, under whose auspices this farmers' inU-r-State en campment is to lie held.

But we do not hay* lo go far to find the reason, and. it is found in the widespread and outrageous destruction of our birds. Think of the enormous number of small birds re quired" to deck ladies’ hats nowadays; and of the ruined crops of hundreds of farmers and fruit growers in the United States, and ask if the flatter is not^the result of the former. Of course it is; bhd will Of can dispute it. What is to bo done? Something; and no time should be lost in doing it. The Ameri can Humane Society is, I think, doip a good work in this direction, an would in time blot out the bird-killing business, especially as an adjunct to the liiillinCTy trade of the country; but it cab not work a reform soon enough to satisfy the pressing necessities of.tbe agricultural interests. We must appeal to law to stop this indirect hatching and raising of myriads of insects to destroy the crops of the farmer, fruit grower and market gardener. i do not think a law against catching birds would do much good, for it would not be enforced; but 1 think a law pro hibiting milliners, # both wholesale and retail, from haudlinfe these ghostly orna ments would have the desired effect, and with such a law we might, in time, have our bints as plentiful and useful as they were a few years ago, before this bloody war,on them began. But small birds are net the only in sect rater* that ire being exterminated* for frivolous purposes.

The actual movement from the plantations was only 3,588 bales, the balance being taken from the stocks at the interior towns. N Cotton in eight June 24 was 0,312,070 being a decrease of cotton in sight as compared with last year of 116,822. The Chronicle savs, in reviewing the speculation id futures during the week: "The speculation in cotton for future delivery at this market has been feverish and unsettled in tone, with the course of prices somewhat erratic and irregular. The reduced stocks have caused some anxiety abont contracts for this crop! - and August options advanced 40 points from the recent figures—namely, from 10.66. to 11.06c., but there was no con- sidererablo short interest to ‘squeeze,’ and prices gave way the moment tmyiug ceased to bo active. The very favorable reports from the growing crop prevented any material improvement in tho more distant options, although it is generally admitted that the supplies will ruu probably quite low in tho early fall months, especially in Europe." A VEIIY BKMAIULAilLK KKATVHE of the annual report of the Tension Bureau is not that tho volume of business was greater than ever before, but that there is an unexpended balance of the apprd r priations for salaries and current ex penses; which has been turned back into the national treasury. Heretofore the business of the Tension Bureau has been so deftly arranged that not a dollar of t - the appropriation ever found its way back to the place whence it was drawn. It is sufficient evidence of tho generosity of the Government toward the soldiers of the Union that in the year just ended, nearly * quarter of a century after the aloes of the war, there were altogether 176,879 claims for pensions considered ; 55,194 original pensions were grant ed under the liberal laws now in force. It requires a force of nearly fifteen hun dred people to transact this business, an _ i of nearly thirteen thousand let* tan and documents being received and out wvery working day, aud the paid for penrions now reaching enormous annual total of seventy - ; of doBaa.

S!io did so, bring ing with her smuo small pieces of brass and brads, with winch she at once pro ceeded to repair tlio fractured limb. Tho surgical operation was performed in a retuarkabio short space of time, ami the injury left to tho, healing pro cess" of nature. Sho quietly gave tlie necessary directions, informed tho man that ho would bo all right in a (lav or two, and that her bill was $25. ft is scarcely necessary to say tliat tlio fee was not forthcoming, tlic matter being treated as a good joke. Next morning, however, Miss Copeland appeared on tho scene with a constable, and, much to tho chagrin of the son of Esculapius, collected her fee. It would seem that if tho young graduates of Harvard medi cal school wish to got ahead of tho lady Studeiitrof the College of Physicians and Surgeons they will have to rise very early and use more brass than Miss Copeland did in reducing the fracture of the wooden leg. ■ ■■ ■ —■re • re — How to Have While Hand*. The remarkable discovery has recent ly been made that "white hands are coming into fashion again.” It would seem tbat hands have been growing less white than they used to be, and nave suffered from too great attachments in ladies to lawn-tennis and boating and other masculine accomplishments. “Chapped and red hands are never pret ty, and thi id rice would CotHpamuii. ty, and these, of course, invariably fol low on outdoor exercise.

He had sub sisted for years by begging, living on broken virtual*, and carefully hiding the money given him. Alter ids death, a large amount uf silver was discovered buried in tlie rave, with government JjoipJ* And certificates of stock. His son, who was a cripple, ha had allowed to die in tlie county almshouse. An old man who knew him in his youth, said.— "His father taught him to cheat at marbles for pennies. He was trained to believe tliat there was no value in education, in religion, in the affections, in tho decencies, in tho happiness of life,—in nothing, iu short, but money.” Tlio. heir to one of tho great ducal estates of England was disposed, when a boy, to bo extravagant ami sensual. His mother would not allow his tutors to curb him. "it is the effervescence of youth,” she M "Jt will pass away in time.” said. Last summer the palaces, galleries of famous pictures, ami lands renowned in English history, belonging to an old and honorable family, were sold under tho hammer to pay his debts, while ho, a broken-down gambler aud voluptuary, crept out of sight to France. If a yotmg man could but look for ward thirty or lifty years, and see him self when tho passions which seem so harmless now have done their work upon him! . A so-called magician in London has been coining money lately by showing to eacli visitor who consults him tlic picture of his own death. One young lad saw himself as a bloated old man, dying of apoplexy; another lay on a field of battle, shot to tho heart; a gay girl saw a wrinkled, gray figure stretch ed upon a bed. Surrounded by weeping friends, Tlic trick was the result of an instantaneous photograph taken as the visitor entered, with tho addition of costume and background. But if each boy could, in reality so face old age. but for one moment, there would be IfUlo need of sermons to warn him from his bosciting vice. More thau one man has been saved from final ruin by a single olmrviug glance at himself in a mirror. Ho was turned from evil courses by seeing what he had already become. Uhc lesson would be even more starttfug if xtri! hrrttier“TbdWgmce make of him. —Toufk’j Fifn >r.

The -trong pine rail surrounding tbs platform is pencilled all over with kindred decorations, whih scraps of paper, upon which are memo randa of incidents, and a variety of data, as well as name* and addresses, are pinned to the convenient timber with thumb-tacks. Tho artist paints steadily, every indi vidual being mainly occupied injwrfect ing bis own work, though never he*itat- ing to ask or extend aid in some fi|>ce«ui direction. One artist, for instance, has an excellent figure of a mounted officer, ail complete excepting tlic |>ortrait, a photograph for which is pinned to the canvas. While this artist goes to strengthen a line of battle, another one will rapidly paint an admirable portrait for (no incomplete figure.

Davis in SI Nicholas. —Twenty-eight unmarried women re side in Garfield county, Col; also 1,000 unmarried men. All the men cau’t get a wife from among the twenty-eight, and it probably puzzles the women to make a choice from among the 1,000. At the fashionable ball dress marks the man; the want of It the woman.
