It is not our purpose in this mentiou to
write a biographical notice of this great
man. We only say, he sirred his coun
try iuiuauy foreign courts, uln ays with
oisliiictiou.lie was privy councillor, vice
chancellor.chancellor.aud finally received
the marked honor of having the emperor
confer upon him the "Dignity of Serene

triumphs. His ideas of statesmanship
were broad ami liberal. It was mainly
through his influence, the Russian em
pire has been liberalized and especially
towards its subject, diflcrin iu their
faith from the Greek church; iu fine, the
Russian empire in its every progressive
feature today bears the impress of this
man's character and genius.
All can remember the picture of the
wonderful trio, Hismark, Disraeli and
Gortchakolf in the Congress ol natives at
Ueriln at the close of (he late bloody
struggle between the Ottoman and Rus

waf guaranteed. There is no American

he refused to permit Russia to assume
an uulrieudly attitude towards our coun

England and France hud assumed such
an attitude toward us. and Knrim.in

at that time maintain the closest friend

on the Importance of organizing for

and social Intercourse. In this day of

everything in the vay of societies.

good: but the organization of the
Grand Army of the Reoublic fioes
further than any of them; for while
other societies pay marked itttontinn
to their membership living, in eood

public does not forget its dead com
rades; for on each recurring "Memo

the blooey strife assemble throughout
the length and breadth of our beloved
cour.try.and visit the graves of our de
parted comrades, and with fitting cere
monies bedeck the soldiers' graves
with flowers and bedew them with
tears, the world shall know that (he
humblest of our slain comrades has a
crown of remembrance brighter and
more enduring than the diadem of a
king.

fear of successful contradiction, that

While the iron trade in other cities
is depressed and uncertain, that inter
est in St. Louis is not only prosperous,
but is advancing as to capital and con
trol of territory. An evidence of these
facts is the recent purchase by Messrs
L. L. fcsouther & Bio. of the entire
stock of merchant, bar, plate and sheet
iron held by the Chouteau, Harrison
and Valle Iron Company. The stock
is estimated to amount to about 1,500
tons, but may exceed that amount.and
the transaction involves very nearly
$100,000, as a considerable portion of
the stock- was of the highest grade of
iron. The Messrs. Souther Lave also
rented the buildhn;s,933 and 941 North
Second street, in which the stock is
located, and will occupy them until
their new buildings. 832, 034 and 936
on the same street, are completed. The

In the same manner, and with equal

Our work is truly social, humanita

forth in the rules and regulations, are
as follows:
1. To preserve and strengthen those
kind and fraternal feelings which bind
together tho soldiers, sailors and ma
rines who united to suppress the late
rebellion, and to perpetuate the me
mory and hrstery of the dead
xo assist such former comrades
in arms as need help and protection:
ana to extend needful aid to the wid
ows and orphans of thoae who have
fallen.
to maintain true allegiance to
the united fetates of America, based
upon a paramount respect for and
fidelity to the national constitution
and laws, to discountenance whatever
tends to weaken loyalty, incites insur
rection, treason or rebellion, or iu any
manner impairs the ttflcieney and per
manency of our free institutions; and
to encourage the speed of uuiversal
liberty, equal rights, and justice to all
men.

and those having been honorably dis

There are only tour nations in the
world today that are paying their
way. England generally manages
to make er.ds meet and show
a trifling surplus of two or three mil
lions to lie applied to the reduction of
its enormous national debt; the United

travagance, puts by every year nearly
fifty times as much, and Holland and
Belgium both keep about even. With
these exceptions every nation in the
civilized world shows an annual deficit
or more or less millions
