The choir sang "Unlv nn Armor Hearer." C
Hon. Cbarlcs .lami'H laulkuor was introduced
by the chairman and delivered a 0j
very able address on the subject, ''The ..
Vacation of the Masses." Tho courtroom
was crowded to hair the gentleman's Ul
tlojuent address. It was an address that in
all should hear, showing the great necessity jn
(or the education of all the masses in order .
to insure the preservation of a free Nation.
Mr. Faulkner surely retains the eloquence o1
and tire of his earlier days. At the close,
the thanks of the Association were voted to ^
the honorable gentleman for his excellent .
address. r
A. L I'urinton, Superintendent of the ^
Parkersbuig schools, opened the discussion ni
nn the subject of "Teachers' Salaries." Ilia -u
remarks were very humorous mid enlivened .
the audience not a little. The subject was K
farther discussed by Profs. Wade, Hodges, a
Cos and Hawthorne. The general opinion g
S3 expressed was that the teachers were
poorly paid, and that both teachers and
the people were to blame for this. It was
resolved to have better schools in the tl
future and hope for better pay. h
EVENING SESSION. u
The session opened with sfhging by the b
choir. Prof. A. L Wade led in prayer, e
after which the choir sang another song.
The address of welcome was delivered by
J. II. Hawthorne, County Superintendent o
of Preston. The address was a very able \
one; well prepared and well delivered. The
teachers were cordially welcomed, after .
which the speaker referred to the rise and 11
progress of the free school system of West o
Virginia, and to the great importance of the
work of the teacher. The reply by Prof.

A letter from Miner was produced. It
inn tho nrinted bond of tho Overland Afnil 1'

liner writes that it has come to his kuowl- 11
dge that one Abbott, postmaster at Al- "
ord, has been complaining to the Departnent
that only a weekly mail comes to him.
diner directs Cary to see this postmaster li
md silenco lum, using money, if
accessary, for this vurpose. lie y
uivs Abbott probably knows nothing of *
hrough mail and would be satisfied with r'
weekly service. IIo adds: Abbott had *'
)nco before complained in tho same way,
md had only ceased on tho payment of $30, j
md was probably anxious "now to get g
nore money. Cary is directed to report
lis success to Williamson. Tho reading of u

Washington, D. C., July 12.?Tho cor- u

aborers, and department clerks are semi- e
ng in the amounts called for, as on pre- }*
ions similar occasions, and the aggregate
imount of money collected bids fair to be n
is largo as ever, if not ureater The v
lavv-yanls liavo responded with special ti

luch as, for instance, Southern Postmasters, T
uivo occasionally declined to contribute, o
>ut in genend the terms of the circular are
omplied with by those to whom it was

1ms been mailed in ofllcial envoiipes,
which has printed ou the back that

PiTTsuunou, July 12.?A most important
leeting of tho recently created iron and
eel association was held this afternoon,
stensibly, the members of the Western
ail Association were alono concerned,
ut close observation detected a deeper
oportin tho gathering. Tho nail busiess
was easily disposed of in a preliminar
meeting, Mr. Vance, of Wheeling, in
in clinir. After n hrinf ilinpnaoinn S?
jcided to leave nails just as they were, as
i price, and to adjourn to meet again on
le second Wednesday in October. The
ssociation then marshaled its members
ir the llrst time ainco its organization six
eeks ago or more. President Keating
as in the chair and Secretary "Weeks was
; his post. The minutes of the first meet*
ig were read and approved, and a general
iterehango of views followed. Near
i very member who had signed
10 original artioles creating the
ssociation, was present, and it was a mat r
of complacency on their part to know
mt not one of the signers had signed the
rale. The forenoon, and until 1i?. >t., was
assed in desultory conversation, during
liich the fact was developed that the As*
jciation was as lirm as ever in determina>
resist tho demands of the strikers,
rnong questions asked was one put to Mr.
ritton, the Cleveland iron manufacturer.
i was regarding tho attitude of President
Ihisholm, of the Cleveland Rolling Mill
lompany. Mr. Britton replied in sub*
iince that Mr. Chisholm's refusal to have
ny conference with President Jarrett, ol
:ie Amalgamated Association, received the
ndorsemvnt of western manufacturers in
eneral and Cleyelanders in particular.
?uring the session of the meeting the
uestionof the concentration of the effect*
f the strike on this city, and tho converion
of Pittsburgh into the labor battle
round of the entire country, was freely
iscussc-d, and evidently produced conid
erable excitement.
The situation has not changed here for
everal days.
Dilworth, Porter it Co., of this city,
igned the scale to-day, but as they do no
uddling their signing has no significance
nd will in 110 wise affect the manufactures'
side.
President Jarrett is home from Clove*
uid and appeared to be in a particularly
ad humor this morning. When asked by
reporter how things looked in Clevemd,
he said everything was all right
Thus far, said the reporter, how many
lill owners have agreed to pay the prices
emauded ?
'About fifteen."
"Do you think the others will follow
uit?"
"Of course I do."
" What reasons have you for thinking so?"
"What business have you to ask my
sasons'j"
"Because it is a matter in which the pubc
is interested."
Mr. Jarrett failed to seo it in this light,
ut in a moment or two, probably believ*
ig that the reporter was about right; conescended
to state that he thought thai
le other mill owners would give in bouise
tho market was growing healthier,
le demand for iron was more brisk and
lanufactu'rers were beginning to think
:iat the employees were determined,
n conclusion Mr. Jarrett said he would
amain in the city until about tho 1st ol
tugust.

On Boaiid II. II. S. Invjnciiii.k, \ t
Alexandria, July 11, 7 r. m. j ,
Tho great artillery contest which has t
raged all day, ended in a complcto success. (
Tho object for which' wo fought has been t
i ?t... ... i n. t
uuiuuit-u, iuu turib auu uuiicnuj ou iiiubui
fnco of Alexandria being a heap of ruins.
Considering the extent and nnturo of the,
work, weight nnd numberof guus mounted,
amldogged pluck with which the Egyptians
fought them, the result lias been, obtained
with a surprisingly small loss of life, the
total of the casualties in tho fleet being fivo
killed and twenty-seven wounded. It i?
diflicult, so soon nfter the engagement, to
write a cool and collected narrative of the
1 day. Tho dead calm which litis succeeded
tho tremendous roar of artillery which has
gone on for so many hours seems at rango
and unnatural. I can scarcely realize that
the first great sea fight with artillery of
modern size has been fought and won.
At twenty minutes past six tho ships of
the squadron signalled: "All ready," but a
still further delay was necessary to allow
the Egyptian officers carrying tho Admiral's
reply to the Ministry to be sent ashore. At r
half-past six a quiet order was passed
round the deck to load with common shell,
and a gleam of satisfaction shone on the
men's faces. At seven o'clock a signal
was made to tho Alexandria
4 TOOI'EN* TIIH HALL
by firing onn gun. Tho heavy booin came
across the water. Then thnro u*na nnnnv. .
ious pause. Would tlio Egyptians answer, u
or would they evacuate the forts? No (
sound came from Fort Ada, but on bat- y
teries opposite we could see men loading c
guns. They would fight The order was j
given to commence independent liring, (!
and a signal was run up for the licet to be- v
gin a general engagement. A deafening \
, salvo from live nine-inch guns went from 1
the side of the Invincible, while overhead ^
ten Nordenfeldt guus in the tops swelled t
the din which burst from all the ships, t
The bank of smoke which at once rose 1
like a wall from our side prevented c
ine from seeing the results of our lire. Out t
from the tops it was seen that the shells t
had struck hither low, and sights were \
; raised from 1,350 to l',500 yards. The (
Monarch and Penelope had both work ^
1 close at hand, and the roar of their heavy i
guns and the ceaseless rattle of their Gat- t
liugs aud Nordenfeldt machines, and the i
1 rush of rockets which the Monarch was ?
1 discharging, added to the sound of our own i
' guns, made up a deep continuous din t
' which is impossible to describe, and was c
most bewildering to hear, In any momen'
tary interval the sound of guns from the
other division of the fleet, told that they ]
also were nurd at work. Tlie smoke from
the very commencement of the engagement
was so dense that we could see
nothing of the eflcct winch our lire
was producing nor of what the enemy
were doing, lint soon after we began a
KHAKI* SCIIKAM OVKUIIEAI),
followed by thoupleaping of a column
of spray to"the seaward as the shots struck
the water, made it clear the enemy were replying
to our cannou. Soon orders were
passed to cease firing until the smoke
cleared away. The wind and sun were
both in the enemy's favor, and it was
sometime beforo the veil was lifted sufficiently
for even a glimpse of the shore
and this was lost in an instant The guns
again opened fire and nothing could be
seen from the deck. Hardy, a midshipman,
posted in the main top, signaled the
direction of the shells an<^ the accuracy of
fire improved; in the meantime the enemy's
shots were coming thick and fast. J
Twenty minutes after the first gun our s
front royal braces were shot away, and immediately
after a second shot penetrated j
: forward,*a splinter wounding a stoker severely.
At this time they appeared to v
have gotten our range pretty accurately, 1
' and round and conical shot whis- l
tied thickly between the masts. I went
. round the "ship and found the men lighting
tho mail deck guns, all stripped
to the waist. Between each 'shot r
1 they had to sit down and wait until tho
i smoke cleared away. They were anxious
to know the result of their'fire, and asked 7
questions of me as to what could be seen .
above. The enemy were continuallv stick1
ing to their guns manfully, although amid
t tho hail of heavy shells and Galling and
i Nordenfeldt bullets. It must have been ii
hot indeed inside the forts. But luckily for
us, their fire although good in direction
was bad in elevation, and we were seldom
hit. ''
By 8 o'clock the Monarch had silenced
tho small fort opposed to her aud set lire i
to the buildings and dismounted the guns, *
and she now joined us against tho* for- i.
midablo works of Fort Mex. Tho Kgyp- N
tians in that battery still replied briskly, o
but although several times struck, none of ti
, tho shots penetrated our battery or water t
or water line, but where no armor protcct- t
ed her the sliot scattered showers of splin- o
ters through the ship. One shot struck tho o

These four guns gave us great trouble, f!
they were all under cover and the gunners a
stuck well to their work. The Temeraire 11
was thereforo signalled to come to the as- r
sistance of three ships engaged. It was L.
dilllcult to hit the exact locality of the guns, r
seen as thoy were dimly and occasionally I
through the smoke, but hy half-past ten
only threo maintained fire. These guns ,
| were concentrated on the Invincible and
: must have been worked by the best gnn,
nere, for they struck us every time, often ?
quite on the water line. Before they we^o t
silenccd wo had six men wounded, ono
with a foot taken oil'by round shot, oth- f
era by splinters. By 1L o'clock the fort was u
i in ruins with the guns all silenced. The ?
Monarch was signalled to go close to shore n
and dismantle the fort thoroughly at closo c
quRrtere. An hour earlier,-Fort Marabout
i lying two miles away had opened fire upon 1
tlie ships engaged with Fort Mex. The shots i
fell short and we took no notico of tlio at- i
tack, but Lord Charles Beresford, com- i

; pluckilv engaged the fort with his little
craft. The gunboat Bcaeon came on and
joined him making excellent practice on J
on the fort, whose shots fell thick round
' the boats and passed several times between .
tho masts but'never touched them. Its 1
1 tiro at last was silenced by.the plucky little 1
; gunboats.-Meantime the ships of J other 1
divisions of the squadron steadily engaged i
forts Pharos, Ras-El-Tin and Atfa, the In- i
flexible having gono to aid tho Sultan, Su* *
perb and Alexandria with' her tire. Tho i
Egyptian batteries steadily replied and
i rapidly. The roar of guns was almost con- i
tinuous, while tho rush of heavy projectiles r
hrough the air resembled tlio low rutnblo
>f distant thunder. Fort Pharos early
ihowed signs of heavy battering to which
t was exposed. Ono of the towers was
cnocked down and tho fort soon ceased
lring altogether, wjillo tho lire from tho
)thur forts also greatly blackened.

At half past 10 the Khedive's palace,

jehind the forts, took fire, and at tho time ?

by a lucky shot from tho InUext*

vere chosen for the adventure, Lieutenant

skillfully performed. Of thesliips engaged

out of the harbor. A3 she came out
she signalled, "Negotiotions have failed, I
have accordingly informed the authorities

From this it seemed as if the oflicer and

finding themselves in a daugerous position

hoisted a Hag of truce in order

Stato Central Committee met this
morning, nearly 100 inotnbors being pre#Bent,

Chairman Cooper on culling tho committee
to order, explained that the call for
tho committee meeting was made under a
resolution adopted at llarrisburg, Juno 21,
which stipulated tho Stato Committeo
should uso nil houorablo means to tho end
that harmony [might bo restored in
tho -"party. A proposition suggesting
that both tho Stalwart and Independent
tickets bo withdrawn was submitted on
behalf of tho Youug Men's Republican club,
but it was suggested that before the committee
discuss any proposition it would be
well that tho candidates on tho regular
ticket bo preseut
Soon tho candidates, headed by Gen.
Bearer, entered the hall, where they were
warmly greeted. It is understood soveral
propositions looking to harmonizing the
existing troubles in tho party wero submitted
among them, one by Chuirmun
Cooper, which sets forth that tho vote of
the members of the Republicon party
shall be taken at tho primaries to decide
whether regular or independent nominations
meet tho approval of tho party.
Another proposition was for an entirely
new convention, under rules recently
adopted, to decide the nominees of which
body are to ho the candidates of tho whole
Republican partyO
When the Committee appointed to invite
the presence of tho candidates arrived
with those gentlemen, they presented a
letter signed by all of those occupying
places on the ticket, in which it was set
forth that the candidates would gladly
place themselves in tho hands of the State
Committee; that they would submit their
claim to every test deemed wise by that
body, ami would be willing to retire from
the ticket, if such course was necessary.
Kx-Judge Pettis, of Crawford, then submitted
the following four propositions which
were to be placed before the Independents
for their consideration and acceptance or
rejection.
First?That both tiuketB be submitted to
a popular vole of the Republican parly at
primaries.
Second?That the Republican party at
primaries select a ticket by popular vote;
primaries to be open for tho candidature of
any Republican whatsoever, whether on
either of the present tickets or not.
Third?That a new convention, under
the rules adopted by the Continental Hotel
conference of Stalwarts,nnd Independents,
be held on the fourth Wednesday in August,
the rules to govern said convention to
be prepared by ex-Chief Justice A snow.

Fourth?That, a new convention i? not to

It was decided that the Chairman of the
State Committee bo empowered to present
these four propositions to the Independents,
any one of which was acceptable to
the Regulars. The committee then appointed
a Finance Committee and Executive
Committee to carry on the campaign.
Adjourned.
The Independent Republican candidates
and the other leaders met again this evening
at the residence of Col. Win McMichael,
candidate for Congressman-at-Large.
It was learned to day that last night at a
conference at the same place Senator Stewart,
candidate for Governor, proposed that
all candidates on both tickets should withdraw
and should bo ineligible for
nomination by a now Convention,
constituted in accordance with the
independent rulers. His proposition did not
meet with favor, and it was concluded that
it was now too late to think of withdrawing
the Independent ticket. To-night the feeling
among the Independent leaders appears
to be the same. They say no provision
will satisfy them which would not
prevent the reuoiniuation of the Cameron
ticket.
The conference after four hours' session
adjourned without arriving at any definite
