Williams, who went to Seal Island three months ago as a spe cial at nt of the government, has just returned to Washington. He said that tlespite the presence of nearly a dozen American and English men-of war in and around Bchriug Sea illicit sealing was being carried on extensively. Pre vailing fogs in the sea made it easy for fast-sailing schooners to elude pursuit, and Williams is of the opinion that the illegal catch for the present season will number 20,000 seals. Of the 7,500 skins allowed privilege holders this year 0,300 caught by natives for food have already passed into the hands ut t he North Amer ican Commercial Company. This leaves only 1,200 seals to lie captured Is-tween now and May 1 of next year; and, as that niimls-r will not supply the Aleuts on the Islands of St. Paul and St. George with food, the Commercial Company will have to keep the natives from starving. Williams is of the opinion that a couple of years' protection to seals is necessary in onier to keep them from iKMng exter minated. CABLEGRAMS.

Below will Isi found such personal note's concerning delegates as The Item reporters have U-en ab.e to pick up, a iiuiulx-r who promised memoranda not having sent it in and others not being found. Colonel It. F. Fshleman, the present chief of the veteran corps, Washington Artillery l amp, went out with the fa mous battalion in lstil as Captain of the fourth company. He was the first ollicer wounded at the battle of Bull Run. After serving gallantly in several en gagements he was promoted to Major ship of the battalion, and was in com mand at the surrender at Appumattox. Paul Conrad. A true representative of" lieiu lemps" is found in Paul Conrad, a delegate from Camp Heary, St. Paul. He in a purely typical liouisi anian. With an ancestry as old as the country, he combines in himself every essential feature of the old-time Creole, with the progressive characteristics of the present age. Born in this city on December 31,1840, of native parentage, be, with many whose names will ever live in the his tory of the State, attended the public school of this city. At an early age the death of his father left him to bullet the world with but lit tle help, save the encouraging and wise counsel n of a brave mother, and deter mined his early embarkation in the va rying and stern actualities of life. lie began a commercial career when barely 15 years of age in the wholesale grocery business, and aftewards engaged in the cotton business i ne war nreaKing out when he was about 20 years of age, he joined the Chasseurs a Pied, one of the lirst com mands to leave this city for the then seat of war, Pensacola, in April, lWd. His career as a soldier was conspicuous for his personal daring and bravery, not unmixed with a fair share of romance, and paying trie pi nalty of his venture some spirit, he was three times badly wounded, once in front of Richmond, at the battle of Crazier rami, June ;t0, j bo i, where ne was appointed color- bearer of his battalion on the field by the i olonei commanding. J he Mag tluu entrusted to him, which he carried to the end of the war, is the same battle flag which was presented to St. Paul's Battalion by General Longstreet to com memorate their desperate charge at Seven Pines, and which was after the surrender at Apimmattox taken to a place of safety in Richmond. Alxmt l.HiOa meeting of the veterans of the old command delegated Mr. Con rad to go to Richmond and secure the battered war emblem, which he did. and after reporting to his old comrades in arms he delivered the nag into the cus tody of the Association of the Army of northern irgtma. whicti lias unfurled it in Memorial Hall, where it now hangs. a silent and eloquent reminder of those troublous times which brought it intoex- istence. At Sharpsburg (or Antietam) Septem ber 10, 1801, he was a second time wounded, and fell into the hands of the Federals. After being exchanged and before thoroughly recuperated from his disabling wounds, we find him again in the field of active duty with his com mand in and about the historical Black water, Southampton county, Va., and at the battle of Belletield be was again wounded. Surrendering with the last forlorn hope, after four years and several months of actual active service, he resumed his duties of citizenship to his native State, relapsing into those peaceful pursuits in winch he could serve his people most beneficially. In 1807 he was elected As sistant Secretary of the Finance Com mittee of the City Council, where his intelligent administration of the office soon promoted him tothe Secretaryship. With varying successes to himself financially he thereafter engaged in va rious commercial enterprises, until ot lute years he acquired a home in the town of Waveland, adjoining Bay St. Louis, Miss., where his progressive spirit and enlightened enterprise were soon recognized, and he was elected and is still serving as a Councilman of that cor poration. His suggestions of progress were soon adopted bv his new constitu- ents.and some time ago he was called up on to serve as President of the Gulf Coast Ice and Manufacturing Company, which is now affording such material comforts to the denizens of that lively little town. Many years ago he accepted a a ibal tem poeition with the Louisiana Stat Company, where his worth was Boon recognized," and his promotion to the internal direction of his office affairs gradually followed, and which upon the death of their late President, Dr. M. A. Dauphin, culminated in his being chosen President of that vast institution which office he now holds with credit to himself and advantage to the company. He is also a Director in the Cherokee Iron Manufacturing Company of Rusk, Tex., which has sought the benefit of his advice and experience, and altogether he finds his time well taken up with the administration of the affairs of others. Yet with his multifarious duties he re mains what he ever was, a true and loyal friend and safe adviser, one upon whom none who know him ever hesitate to en truiit their most secret confidences. His peculiar attributes are his un swerving devotion to duty, his undeviat ing punctuality and his lovalty to any cause he may espouse. Xew Orhan (La.) Cily Item, May 30, FOREIGN LANDS. Gold and Silver Scarce in Portugal. GERMAN CARPET-WEAVERS. Mr. Gladstone Denies That He Knew of Mr. Parnell's Secret Whereabouts. Prince George of Wales is to be made a commander in the royal navy. Nordica will make a concert tour of the United States on her ow n account. Gold and silver have almost entirely disappeared from circulation in Portu gal. Russia has not prohibited the expor tation of rye liefore since the Crimean war. Austria expects to reap a golden har vest out of the Russian rye prohibition with her abundant harvests. The Princess of Wales fund for the benefit of Mrs. Grimwood, the heroine of Manipur, amounts to $7,500. The famous Sevres porcelain manufac tory is likely to be closed, the demand for its wares having fallen off. The Portuguese are shamefully abus ing the natives in Southeastern Africa, especially in Mozambique, and seize the women as slaves. The English colonial office has just consented to the appointment of a Chi nese Consul at Hongkong for one year as an experiment. An Odessa Jew named Kaplan has ee cured the punishment of a police agent for assault, having paid the Chief of Po lice for protitction. Everything is quiet at Nankin, where the Viceroy is settling claims. His an swer to the foreign Ministers' demands is eminently evasive. The Manipur Regent in power at the time of the recent massacre in India and Prince Angao Sena have leen exiled for life, the death sentence having been commuted. A mine of mercury, said to be exceed ingly rich, has been recently discovered in liiazil. Tin's is the only Brazilian mine of that kind of which we have any knowledge. The Catholic papers at Treves urge the pilgrims not to buy relics from the Prot estants, as they ridicule the holv coat now on exhibition there, although glad to profit by the exhibition. Despite official denial it is still as serted that a government order has been dispatched to all Russian and Polish railways forbidding them to ex port any more wheat, rye or flour. Loud complaints continue to be made of the management of the Bayreuth mu sical festival. It is alleged that the Di rectors reduced everything to a commer cial basis, and a very sordid one at that.

An old woman died in the smith nt France, aged 83, and in "grateful recog nition of the intelligent n nit dnvntH cava of Dr. X., which had enabled her to reach a ripe old age," she left him every thing in her cabinet.
