GEN GORDON'S DIARIES prisoners, which will shook the townspeople, but will be a true Joy tad delight to me, for it has been a work utterly repugn ant to me. I lihefree will. We left God with oqr own free will 5 we most return with our own free will. I bate a forced (abjection, and I feel sure that to let these people out, with free will to go to the Arabs or not, will be good policy. I must say that I feel it a great oompllment when my counsellor* say to me: 'Do what you think right. Irrespective of our advice,' when they know I am Ignorw* at all that goer on, ignorant of the Arabic language, except in my style, Ignorant of the Arab customs, etc. 'You will do better than what we do,' is what they say, and I, poor devil, do not know where to turn. Ob! our government, our government! what has It not to answer fori No to me, but to these poor people. I declare, If I Ihonght the town wished the Mahdi, I would give it up, so much dCJ I respoct free will. "Mr. Gladstone has a rival nphere In shirt Dollars. Mohammed Bey Ibrahim appeared to-day with regular wings, rather ragged, his collars up to his ears, regular orthodox patterns. I must say I bate our diplomat,"I dwell on the joy of never swing Great Britain again, with its horrid, wearisome dinner parties and miseries. How we can put up with those things passes my imagina■HwtJt* is a perfect bondage. At thosedinner parties we are all in masks, saying what wto do not believe, eating and drinking things we do not want, and then abusing one another. I would sooner live like a dervish With tha Mahdi than go out to dinner every night in London. I hope if any English general comes to Khartoum he will not Mk me to dinner. Why men cannot be friends without bringing their wretohed ■tomacbs in is astounding. It oertainly is a carious exemplification ot how very lightly religions sit on men, and to note the fearful apoetacy of both Mussulmans and Christians when their lives and property are menaced. There Is scarcely One great fhmlly of the Bpudan families who can traoe their pedigree for 600 years who have not accepted Mohammed Achmet as mahdi to save their prop- Sty, though they laugh at the idja afterward. - I am afraid- to say nambers have bean killed through this present policy. Certainly some 00,000; and it is not ye* over. PY,r mv part, I hope they (die Arabs) Will all run away. We have in a most effectual way rertored the slave trade and slave hunting, for bar majesty's government cannot (fog the Soudan, and never will Bgypt be able to govern it The only thins to be done is to giw it to the sultan. What an end of the diplomacy at her majesty's government, and it was so easy when I left in January, 1880, to have settled it quietly, giving up Kordofan, Darfur and Bahr Gazelle, and tin equator with decency and qhtolwi.Wtnttoget o«t jrf theaflWr, but with deoencr. Put yourself in my position. If 'Kapld retreat and leave Sennaar bo It* fate,' X will say 'No, I would sooner die firetj and will resign my commission, for I could tot do it. If you say "Then you are no longer governor general,' then I am all right, #nd all the responsibility is on you. "If Baring does bump his way up here ai British commissioner I shall consider he has expiated his faults and shall forgive him. We seldom realise our position. In ten or twelve years' time Baring, lord Wolseley, mynalf, Evelyn Wood, etc., will have no .toeth:#ojl will be deaf; some of us will be unite pake; no on* will come and court us; new Bhriags, new Lord Wolseleys will have arisen who will call us 'blokes' and twaddles.' *Oh, for goodness sake, come away. there is that dreadful bore coming. If ottee lie-gets alongside you you are In for half aa bbur,' will be the remark of soma young captain of the present time on seeing you Miter the club.

At the great encampment the veterans have settled down'into comfortable camp life. Good order and good nature prevail everywhere. Tbe socret executive session of the national encampment began at 11 o'clock in the city hall with a full attendance ot delegates. After calling the encampment to order, Commander-in-Chief Konntaa delivered his ahnual address. London, Jane 25.— Paddington a i l Wind- Mr stations were crowded w,th people waiting to see the outgoing and incoming ministers depart for Windsor castle to transfer the h als of office. All ahades of politics were represented, as was shown by the mingled hisses and applause with which each of the prominent officials was greeted. On tho appearance cf Mr. Gladstone the cheers of his admirers fairly 'drowned the feet la hisses of the Conservatives, but the hisses and groans preponderated cm the arrival of Mr. Ohilders, the retiring chancellor of the exchequer, and the presumed author of the eurs beer and sp rit tsx. L rd Salisbury was cheered and his3cd with about equal vigor and the pugnacious young Lard' Randolph Churchill was greeted with a genuine Jingo roar of applause with but few opposing voices. Mr. Gladstone seemed well pleased with his reception and bowed his acknowledgments right and left. Lord Salisbury strode along with sombre dignity, talcing no notice of the applause of his friends, but scowling savagely at the hissei. The literary sensation of the day is the publication of the diaries kept by Oeo.- Gordon during the long siege of Khartoum. They make a volume of nearly 800 pages, which is sure to have an ectensive sale, although It cannot be said to be pleasant reading for any class of paople likely to buy It To the late government it must read like a terrible indictment, and to the statesmen now coming into power it is a revelation of fee difficulties and dangers in their path in dealing with the Egyptian problem. To the personal friends of the lata eommaidsr It comes like a gruesome voice from the grave, telling a tale of mortal misery in language often wierd, uncanny and uncouth. To those who wish to still regard Gj». Gordon as an ideal Christian hero it will bring a shock of disappointment, for it lays bare all the startling incongruities of his character which were apparently intensified by his sufferings, perplexities and despair to (he verge of madness. The diaries reveal three predominant ideas The first was that ha could "smash the Mahdi" U Sobehr Pasha were sent to his aid. the question of relieving the garrison of Khartoum having been delayed until it was too late for action. Secondly, ha was ooaviaosd that the idea that Egypt was governed by ths Egyptians was a piece of utter fiction; that it was governed lp every detail by Englishmen, and that England was thus responsible for its fate.. Thirdly, Gen. Gordon persooally believed that Mr. Gladstone's government desired his death to ssttle the dif Acuity and end tha clamor for a relief ex peditico.

On March 81,1885, thirty-eight departments reported posts and 269,084 members, while the report of the adjutant general shows the membership to be 287,087. The large number of 64.392 reported by the adjutant general as suspended during the year ie due in groat measure to tha negliame aad inefficiency of post officers. "Oar finances," the commander-ln-ohief continued, "are in excellent condition. We have on band a cash balance of 115,834. The question having been raised as to whether tha late comrsde, Dr. B. F. Stevenson, of fcpringfleld, 111., was really the first mover in tile organisation of the Grand Army ot the Bjpublic, it is deemed but siumle justice to hi* memory, as well as to his family and comrades to state that all authentic records confer upon hnn that very great honor. During thi past eleven months there have been issujd 51,000 badges at a profit of (C;,03D1. I heartily Indorse the organisation known as tne Veterans' Bights union, the object of which Is to secure to our comrades their rights and privilege i under the revised statutes of the United States. The union urges, as It rightfully may and ongfat, that whan other qualifications are equal the soldier ehould be preferred, because he was a soldier. I am op posed to the perpetuation of the Grand Army, believing the mission of our gree comradeship will have been fulfilled when the last comrale shall havo joined the final muster-out. Knowing that there to nothing in the Grand Army of Ihi Republic inconsistent with toe most exacting personal duty or the strictest religion, I deemed it for tbe interest of the order to appoint a special committee to lay its nature and workings before the proper Catholic authorities of the United States that they might Mow our organliti"" thai our purposes are commended by all whs understand them. The committee reported having fulfilled its mission, that aaanranoai had been given by Archbiuhopa Ryan and Gibhona that nothing could be found In tha alms of the Grand Arnyr to prevent any good Catholic from beooming a member." The commander-in-chief deprecated participation in politics as an organisation, and urgently advocated the Merlcab Pension bill and a bill to grant disabled soldi era a pension from the date of dlaability.

Quite a long conversation was had between them, the general carrying on his part of it in writing. After informing the doctor what he bad done on his book, and that he had nothing more to write, except as the proofs might suggest items, he ailted what the doctor thought at his condition. The doctor replied that he thought the change had Improved his general health. Then the general became solicitous about his voice. Ha wanted to know if the doctor thought he oould recover it The doctor said he didn't beliava there had yet been time to decide that. West Pennsylvania Hospital at Pittsburg. $103,000.

It appeared that the same indorser appeared on the papers of all three leading applicants and the friends of a dark horse desired the to express a preference for their man. After a lengthy argument, in which the situation was fully discussed, the president put an end to suoh aspirations by declaring that it was a mater for the secretary of the treasury to determine. The committee had to be satisfled with this decision.
