Cixcixxati, January 15. There was a gathering of old soldiers in Covington, Ky., yesterday with a a most peculiar object. It was a meeting of the gallant Forty-first Kentucky volunteers, to take the initial measures to be mustered out of service of the war. The story is a peculiar one. During the war a regiment was or ganized in Uovington composed mainly ot VJovmgton people. Thev were sworn in by officers fully authorized to perform that duty, and were put under the command of Captain Amos Shink- ler. I hey went into the war and served through it, being known as the gallant Forty-first Kentucky volunteers. It is twenty-three years since the last gun was fired, and many of the regiment are numbered with the dead. Some were killed in battle, others have died since, but not a mother's son ol them was ever mustered out of service, and no one has any papers to indi cate that he was discharged. As a consequence every member ol the Forty-first Kentucky volun teers is entitled to pay up to the present time, and the meeting this afternoon was for the purpose of adopting some means to secure their discharge and pay. Amos Shinkler. who commanded the regiment, is still alive, and was with his men this afternoon. Should the men's claim prove valid and be successfully prose cuted, each man will be entitled to SC,.")SS counting from the close of the war. Opposed to Internal Eevenue. New Yokk, January 4. The report of the Union League club's committee on political reform was submitted at the annual meeting last evening. The substance is embodied in the resolution recom mended, which says: Ilenolved, That we deem it wise Republican statesmanship to abol ise the internal revenue depart ment of the United State-, as the safest and most practicable w.iv :' reducing the surplus in tho tna ury and preserving unimpaired tn great principle of protection in Ameiican industry, and also to ad vocate and enforce, wherever the power exists, rigorous and vigor ous legislation in the various states in favor of taxation of the liquor traffic to the highest degree prac ticable, to the end that money col lected from that source may be applied directly to defray the ex pense of the pauperism and crime it entails upon the several states. The committee was headed by Whitelaw Reid. The report will bo called up for action in March. The blood cleansing qualities of Ayer's garsapanlla render it inval uable in skin disorders. Indignities to Prisoners. Dublin, January 14. A Gal way correspondent of the Evening Telegram says: "Wilfred Jilnnt was last evening deprived of his overcoat by the prison officials, lie then took off hi prison garb and demanded his own suit, which was refused. To-day he staved in bed. Blunt told :i visiting justice that Balfour, in recent interviews, I declared his intention to imprison six of the physically weakest of ParnelFs friends, who would bo unable to survive six months' im prisonment. The justices have re fused to receive the written declai ation, but advised that the prisoner be removed to a better room and that his overcoat be restored and he be supplied with writing inate rials.

Unbelief in Superstition, New Yor.K, January 14. The Thirteen club gave one of its unique dinners last night at the Cafe Mo relli, only it was a bit more unique than usual, for it was the occasion of its annual election. , Six long tables, each holding thirteen guests, filled the dining hall. Thirteen wax tapers burned on each table, ine menu was printed on a gravestone, the wine list on a coffin-lid. On a silken banner at the head of the room blazed the motto of the club: "Morituri te salutacnus;" but sym bols of death and the fateful num ber of 13 were the only things fu nereal about the dinner. Merry jest kept pace with the flow of sparkling wit. "Oh. death, thou hast no sting, if thou but come to me at a banquet of the Thirteen club," was the sentiment given over brimming bumpers. At the election olo votes were cast. The report of the scribe showed a membership of 1,300. Dinner was served at thirteen minutes past S p. it. There were thirteen courses, thirteen wines and thir teen toasts. Telegrams of con gratulations were sent branch clubs in as many cities. It was later than thirteen o'clock when the club adjourned.
