"i KKow i AM nunn." Ucncr&l Manier Workman Powderly'i Lecture on Temperance. General Master Workman Powdcrly, in tho Philadelphia Journal of United Labor publishes a tempor?neo lecture addressed to thc members of thu Knight i of Labors. It is entitled "ThcJustice ol My Position," aud is a reply to unfavorable criticism made hy certain of Iiis ern ie ip talents on lectures delivered by him recently In Boston and Lynn, Mass. Mr. 1'owdorly says; "I know I am right. I know that in rc fusing to even tom lt e. drop ol strong drink I was anti am right. In refusing to treat another to that which 1 do aol believe to bc good tor myself to drink 1 know thal I am right. In not allow in-!; a rilinsollcr to gain admittance into the order ol thc Knights of Lahor I know that 1 am righi, hi ad vising our assemblies not to rent halls or meeting rooms overdrinking places l know that 1 am right. I have done this from thc day my voice wasllrst heard in the council halls ol" our euler. My position on thc question of temperance is right. 1 am de termined lo maintain it, and will not aller it one jet or tillie. 1 know that in Hie or ganization ot which 1 am the head lhere arc many good tuon who think, but they would he better men if they did noi drink. Ten years ago I was hiss.-d because I ad vised men to let strong ?trink alone. They threatened to rotten ogg me. 1 have con tinned to ndviso nu n io be temperate, and. though i li've had n<> cxpi dorice that would qualify tuc to reader nu opinion cd' the oftlcacy ol' a rotten egg astin ally of the rum drinker, yet 1 would prefer to haye my exterior decorated from summit to base with tho rankest kind of rotten eggs rather than to allow one tlrop ol liquid villainy to pass my lips. "Ten years ago the cause of temperance was not SO respectable as il is to day, be cause then- were rn ! so many respectable men ami women advocating it. It has gained ground. It is gaining ground, and all lu cause men anil Women who believe in lt could not he I now beaten or frightened. Take a li.st ot' the labor so< telles of America and thc total sum paid into ibo treasuries from all sources from their organization to thc present time will not exceed $5,000,000. The Knights of Labor is the largest and most InlluCIUial of I lieut nil. ind though 80 much has been saki concerning the vast amount of money that Iris been ci Heeled from the members, yet llicl" lal -uni hvied and collected for .ill purposes np to the present time will not exceed $800,000, Now let us turn to thc other side. In New York alone il is estimated thal not less than ?25,000 a day arc spent for drink. $75,000, 000 In a \\ar. if I ( .ucd more for tho praise and approbation of labor's eilendes than I do for Ibo iiltCl'CStJof labor I would remain silent, Wc arc -. eking lo reform existing evils. Wc must ll rsi reform our selves." Th?> Colton Movement. From thc Nev York Financial Chron icle's cotton article the following ligures aro gathered relative to tito movement of tho staple during tito past week: Tho total receipts reached 3,598 hales, against 2,00-1 bah s last week, ?1,5-1!) bales the previous week, and 'f,0!l2 bah s three weeks since; making tho total receipts since the 1st September, 188(1, 5,100,112 bales, against 5,200,7023 hales for tho samo period of 1883 i>. showing a decrease since ?September J, 1880, of 70,201 bales. The exports for tho week reach n total of 18,076 bales, of which 10,787 were to (Iront Britain, 200to France, and 2,081 to tho rest of the continent. Thc total visible supply of cotton, as made up by cable and telegraph, for thc week is as follows: Total of C.reat britain stock 881,000 bales, total of continental stocks HS I, 800-making a total of European stocks of 1,215,800 bales. The total visible supply for the world is 1,808,325 bales; of this number 1,138,525 oro American and 000,800 Fast indian, etc. Tho imports into continental ports during the week wore 55,000 bales, These ligures indicate a decrease in tho cotton in sight of 15,278 bale;; as com pared with thc same dato of 1880, and a decrease of 11,000 bah s as compared with thc corresponding date ol' INS.',. The recoil>ts at interior towns for thc week have been 2,035 bales, Old into rior stocks decreased J, :'.U bah s, and were 477,880 bales less titan nt the hame period last year. The receipts from tho plantai ions, being Uto actual movement, not includ ing tho overland receipts nor Southern consumption, of cotton that reached the market through the outports for tho week were .'I.?W.S hales. Tho total re ceipts since tho 1st of September are 5,18-1,2.X-1 bales. The actual movement from the plantations was only 3,598 bales, the balance being taken from the stocks at thc interior towns, Cotton in sight.I inn- _ I waa 0,312,070 being a decrease ol' cotton in sight as compared with last year of 110,822. The Chronicle says, in reviewing tho speculation in futures during thc week : "Thc speculation in cotton for future delivery at this market has boon feverish and unsettled in tone, with the course of prices somewhat erratic and irregular. Tho reduced stocks have caused some anxiety about contracts for this crop, and August options advanced 10 points from tho recent ligures namely, from iO.00. to ll.OOo., but there was no COU sidererablc short interest to 'squeeze,' and prices gave way thc moment buying ceased to bo active. Tho very favorable reports from the growing orop prevontcd any material improvement in the more distant Options, although it ia generally admitted that tho supplies will run probably quite low in tho carly fall months, especially in Europe" A VERY RRMAHKAIIhB PEATI'IIR of the annual report of tho Pension bureau is not that thu volume of business was greater than ever before, but that there is an unexpended balancoof tho appro priations for salaries and current ex pennes; which has been turned back into the national treasury, Heretofore tho business of tho Pension Bureau bas been HU deftly arranged that not a dollar of tho appropriation ever found its way back to the placo whence it was drawn, It is sufficient evidence of thc generosity of the Govornmont toward the soldiers of the. Union that in the year just onded, nearly a quarter of a century after thc closo of the war, there were altogether 170,8711 claims for pensions considered and 55,101 original pensions were grant oil under the liberal laws now in force. lt requires a force of nearly fifteen hun dred people to transact this business, au avorago of nearly thirteen thousand Iel tors and documents being received and ?ont out overy working day, and tho amount paid for pensions now reaching tho enormous annual total of seventy four millions of dol?ais. This sum ex ceeds either tho annual civil expendi tures or tho ordinary military and naval expenditures at tho present time, ns well as thc totul expenditures of the United Htates in any year previous to tho civil war.

Judging from tho lung and unpronounceable name. So bc re marked lightly that really lie "didn't go much into that sort of ihlng nov it was ont of his lino, too deep entirely for him." Tho Hosten girl stared. "What ?lo you mean, sir!' Chrysanthemum* too deep'.'" "Well, you know," said tho hap! - youth, putting his foot deeper in bis mouth every limo ho opened it, "th ono has to do such an awful 1 ol ol rending to keep un with llioso scientific things, and for my pari 1 never cnj< y thom unless I nm quito up on tho nib* jool they're talking about." Ho fell lie was getting skillfully over a dillicull question nuil continued, willi graceful self confidence, to add n few delicate and art Istie touches to his position. "When 1 go lo this sort of thine;." I,, declared, "lgcl works on Ibo subject and read up thoroughly, so that I can follow the speaker with intelligent ?ll? terostj but i'm too awfully busy jnsl now to bc able to do that, and so 1 eui tho Nineteenth Century Club, and Hie Chrysanthemum, and all thc ros! of lt." Tho Boston girl gasped a few limes and then said she supposed thal lie really must work nwfully hard, and it really was no end of a pity ho had had to glvo up his studies. Hut before sh . went back to HoSlOll she told the story, and the young man has gone Ollt ill l! il country to stay some limo with his -i> ter.

The army stories that aro told oil till central platform, would, if collected, make a prodigious volume. The limn of tho platform is chalked and re halk od, soino referring to tho panorama il> self, but more to ?Il?stralo occur enees upon other fields. The strong ph e ra surrounding tho platform is pone!.Iud all over with kindred decorations, whili scraps of paper, upon which mc memo randa of incidents, and a variety ot data, as well as ninnes and addresses, an pinned to tho conveniont timber with thumb-tacks. Tho artist paints steadily, every indi vidual being mainly ?occupied in perfect ing his own work, though never lu ?ital nig to ask or extend aid in soino sp?cial direction.
