Incorpor ated Oct. 19 , 1881 , the Iroqnois club has assumed a potitlon of national Im portance , and to-dsy thousands will read the published speeches delivered at its banquet board , and make augur ies for 1884 The gathering was a largo one and many a name among the list of guests Is known where reputa tion and brain are respected and ad mired. The large main dining hall of the Palmer afforded barely sufficient space for the accommodation of the guests , and when all wore seated the array presented was ouo worthy ot descrip tion. The room was brilliantly light ed , and the appointments and decora tions were superb. On a ralaed plat form at the north end of the hall a table stretched from end to end , and before eight long tables , all covered with snow white cloth , reached to all the extremities. Scarcely a chair was vacant , and , looking down the aisles , between the rows of Intellectual facet , the student of character wonld have found ample material for reflection. Overthodooraand windows weredrapod the national colors , and the arched f doorway on the north waa hnng with , \ the fl g made into the form of a shield , the lower corner shading a large oil painting of Jefferson. Juat above the portrait a pretty design in flowers attracted attention. This was the emblem of the club , a tomahawk of rod flowers with a streamer of im mortelles encircling it. The immor- . tolles were dotted with violets do ty scribing the words "Iroqiols Club. " , ) The floral decorations wore extremely ' handsome , and BO profuse that the sweet scent of roses , violets and car nations pervaded the entire hall. Long intertwining streamers oi smllax adorned the table cloths , and ran prattily through the varied colors of the mounted flowers. Itntnedl < ately In front of President Pholpj waa a magnlfhent floral pleco bordered dored with call lilies and contalnlngal most every variety of flowers , forming a beautiful combination of colors , E pretty bed for the tender violets thai were wreathed into the name "Iro quols. " On either side wore pyra mlda of varlons hned roses three fee high , and farther down were slmilai pyramidal-shaped combinations o roses with now and then opergnos o parti- colored fruit Intervening.

It waa not until 8:15 : o'clock that the company entered the ban quet hall , though all the guests had assembled some time be fore. Introductions , congratulations , and Interchange of opinions engrossed attention until President Phelps gave the signal , and as the band played a grand marnh. the formal entry waa made , Mr Pnelps leading with Sena tor Bayard on his arm. Everything had been so nicely arranged before hand that no inconvenience was ex perienced by any , and in five minutes the large number cf gnesta were seated , and Mr. Phelps introduced the Rev.

In the rofchstag ' yesterday the minister of finance read the imperial message. The emperor says ho always balloved it waa Ita duty to devote some solicitude for the condition ot the working clauses M displayed by the Prussian kings. The emperor expresses the conviction that legislation should not bo restricted to the police and penal measures but should benefit worklngmen. The abolition of the class tax was the first step towards bonofittlng them. The emperor la anxious in regard to the passage of the Insur ance bill , as its failure , he thinks would hopelessly destroy any chance of paislng the sick poor bill at the next session , The budget for 1884 and 1885 would therefore be now submitted , to give the next ses sion opportunities to consider the condition of the people. The German , Austrian and Italian governments are about to consider the unlawful use of explosives and plans for the destruction of life and prop erty generally. Italy has informed Germany that henceforth no substance capable of being exploded will bo convoyed over any Italian railway in quantities weighing over 100 pounds. The Nerd Dautsoho Zoltung praises . the promptness with which the British commons passed the bill in regard to explosives , and oomparei unfavorably the long debates on the socialist law in the Reichstag. The condition of Bismarck's health ! a loss favorable , and ho b not likely to appear in the Reichstag again soon. The census of live stock in Prussia , compared with the census of 1873 shows an important Increase , except lu sheep. The omparor's message waa a sur prise to the relchstag. The progress ive party propose to discuss the issues brought up. The liberals are uncer tain what attitude to tako. The right centre on either hand pratest against any debate thereon. It Is reported the liberal members , ' : | propose to present an address in reply to the emperor's message. Liberal journals are dlasatlcgcd with the mes sage , though declaring the criticisms are directed against Bismarck and not the emperor. ' The Vosaleho Zaltnng aaya the mes sage is a clover expedient to effect dissolution of the rolclistag , which la now to bo made on the ground of non- acquiescence in the message.
