Next inonih tho Nttiionsl 0pUul will see more of th pomp Bad clr cumstsiirc ot wr" tlian evpr before. It la prottable too that the largest crowd f vhltors that ever aaaomblpd lo this sH will come to wltues the most novel event that will take place here during the present year. The National drill will commence on the -'3rd of May ami will cloae on the 30th of that month, De0sfrtton Dty," with a grand comhiritlon parade upon the brood, atphait streets of soldiers from everywhere. The North, South, Bast and West, Lake regions and Qulf section! will he represented hy their contingent f sightseers as well as their cltlsen sol diery who will compete for ihe prists. May finds Washington In Its glory ; fresh verdure, balmy sir and flowers, aod military dixplay are always po pular. The flare of brass band, the phrlll piping fifes, Ihe "heroic voices of the tugtes," the rattling drutaf, Ihe burnished arms, brilliant uniforms, prancing steeds, white city of tents, ard flying banners always appeal to the senses snd martial spirit of the people. The grounds fur the camp are the monument grounds lying around the Washington monument ; and the drill ground is that level ellipse lying just south of the White House,known as the While L i This level plain Is one half mile In circumference snd stands will be erected around It on which tn seat the spectators. Here will dally be held the contests to prove the excellence of the cavalry, Infantry, artillery snd snisve ladles. Every evening during drill week there will be a grand brigade dres parade, and on Governor's d".y and Memorial day the entire army corps from Gamp George Washington will parade through the streets of the city. Each evening also the grounds will be Illuminated for promenade con certs, and other attrsctlons which are being prepared for the public. Resides the $26,000 to be dlstrlbu - ed in cash prizes, there will be gold, sliver and bronxe medals, special medals and plate trophies aud atands of colors. Some of the companies which are entered for the drill have aid In advance that they have no expectation of winning prises, hut that they are coming flmply for the recreation and pleasure of the trip. Thirty-six States are already repre sented In the apr Iications made for entry, and yesterday one was receiv ed st the drill besdqusrters from Ditkota. One very important feature of the affair la tbe provision for board and shelter for the Immense crowd of visitors thatwlll como to Wsahlngton fs a city of hotels and boarding hous es. It was not crowded during the Cleveland inauguration, although it was estimated that tnere were then two hundred thousand strangers in the city. Washington often many inducements for a week's visit, be sides the National drill. It It hy far the moat beautiful as well aa the most lntrrestiog city In the Union, and Arlington, Bladcnsburg, Mount Ver- non, Harper's Ferry and many other historic spots aro close by. The action of the two military companies In withdrawing from the drill because of the participition of colored troops In the contest, crested . Hill S no nine surprise among trie mana gers. At first they wore dUposed to credit the dispatches from Alabama. When they were confirmed, Secre tary DeLoon of the drill committee remarked, that he did not propose to criticise the withdrawal of the Mont gomery companies, they had a per fect right to come or not as they pleased ; but regarding the admis sion of the Virginia 8ale Guards, he said that they are rocogniapd an1 regularly organized aoldiera of the State of Virginia, and their right to enter could not be denied under any law, civil, military or moral. Gov. Ie had assigned them places In the military ceremonies' at the laying uf tho corner stone of Richmond's City Hall. Our committee," said he "Is composed almost entirely of Demo crats and of Southern men : but there wan not the least hesitancy or delay when the first colord company made Its formal application. The Montgomery Grey's and the True Blues are the only organizations whl?h have withdrawn, but in view of be fact that colorded soldiery took part in the Inauguration of President Cleveland without giving offense to any section, it Is to be regretted that the admittance of colored military lo a National encampment of volunteer soldiery, Intended to illustrate their proficiency in the manual of arms, should be construed ag an impropriety by even two companies.

At tbe latter date, as reported by this journal, wages of industrial employees bad bean reduced throughout tbe Est- srn, Middle and oeutrsl Western States an average of 10(a) lo per oxnt., while nearly 350,000 fewsr employees wore at wotk than in 1882, when the proapetMtis season, which began in 1879, a at its heighr. It is surely worth knowing that at this time therv are at least 400, 000 more industrial employees at work than io 1885, and that wagita bare, on the whole, together with full tim now, as against reduce 1 hours of labor then, brought the reoeipts of labor generally to tbs level of 1881-82 In some in stanoss thty bava been advanced stiil higher George William Brown, Chief Judge of the Baltimore Supreme Court, was Mayor of that city on the memorable 19th of tVpril, 1861.

MSel(-posseseiou is nine HiiotS in the Isw" of good bleeding. A good yoice is sn essential of self possession ss good ideas are essential to fluent language. Tbs voice, from in- fene.v, should be carefully trsined and developed ; a ful', clear, flexible voice is one of tbe surest Indies tints of geed breeding ; it falls bite music on the ear, snd while it pleases the )ietenar,it add to the onfldsncs of its possessor, be be ever so timid. One mtv be witty with out being popular , voluble without be ing sgrseabls ; s great talker snd yet a giest b-trf. It. is wi-r, then, to note csrefu ly the following suggestions : Hi sincere ; be who hsnitually sneers at everything, wil Uot only render him self disagreeable to otbers,but will soon oesae Ut find pb-asu-e in life. Be frank ; a frsnk,open couatensnce, and s cl-ar, chnery laugh, are worth far msrr, even sucisliy, than "p. dsntty in s stiff cravat." Be amiable ; you my bide a viodic- tire nature under a polite exterior for a time,as a oat masks its sharp elswt in vehet fat, but tbe least provocation brings i ut ooe ss quickly ss tbe other ; tll-ne'ured persoits sre always disliked. Bi sensible ; society never lacks for fituls. If you went elbow room "go up higher." Be cbeetful ; if yuu have ne great trouble on your utnd,yon have no right to tender other people miserable by your long face ar d doiotoos tones. If yen d you vi. ill be gem rally at oldest But above all, be cot dial ; true cor dteliiy unites all tie qualities we save euumetated.

We held almost nightly meetings, and among the nrst things we agreed upon was to hang together, and stay by each other through thick and thin. We had but one purpose to benefit the place, knowing that if it prospered we would all do well. We advertised by hundreds of thousands of circulars. We set lorth all our advan tages in such a manner that stranger who were led by our circulars to give us calls were not deceived, but on the contrary agreed we had not put it as strong as we might We thus got the confidence of the visitors, who wrote back East te friends published glowing correspondence in their own local papers, and carried back with them wonder ful tales of this delightful southwest coun try And the newspaper advertising did double the dutv. Our people made it a rule to ad vertise in our local papers, and to ask their friends to advertise. We then subscribed for large numbers of copies, with local advertising, and full ac counts of our future prospects and great ad vantages, and we found bv conversing with parties who finally came here prospecting, that the full advertising columns ef our pa pers which they had seen, did more than all else to impress them with the growth and importance of the place. We found that we could not overdo this the more we paid out for this purpose, the more were our profits.

An Eastern paper in perpetrating the fol lowing shows how little it knows about the Jfreat Northwest : The Indians of Wash ngton Territory have an ingenious method by means of which they kill a great many deer in a short time. They take some old blankets, well scented vith Indian, tnd fasten them at short intervals upon the bushes, making a long line of bushts so covered Then taking in a large area of timber, they gradually close in on the frightened deer. When the animals h;ive reached the line of the blankets they travel round In a circle like a whirlpool, reins ng to pass the line of blankets. This enables the Indians to kill them as rapidly as they please. THAT HACKING COUGH em be so quickly cured by Shiloh's Cure. We guarantee it.
