The rendezvous was llxed at a picturesque spot just outside of the town known as 1'ondpolnt tics nlles do Morlnss. The wealhcr was warm , oven muggy.but the sky quite ovorcastand the day finally ended In a downpour. Notwithstand ing the fear of n ducking , however , a largo throng ot people had assembled on foot and In carriages to see the hounds throw off. The number of those who had come out to hunt themselves wns. on the contrary , unusually small In comparison with other years.nnd with the exception of the master , Sir Victor Brooke , the huntsman and whip , nobody bportcd the traditional pink. AMONG Tin : I.ADIP.S were Miss Lily Knno nnd her sister , Mrs. Morris Post , driving In u pony trap a 1'An- glals. In landaus nnd victorias were Mrs. Stewart and the Comtcsso do Urammont , Mrs. Lawionco with Miss Qarnor , Mrs. and Miss Morris , Mr. and Mrs. Kogers , Mi * .

"If that horse could only speak what volumes ho'd ' have to tcllr" Bald Larregalne , as ho stood by holding Dr. Green's old horse , Flames , that for four years carried him so brilliantly In his first flight at the 1'au hunt. ' " 1 bat's nil well " said veiy , n young lady , regretfully , "but why couldn't Grccu have got married and como back to 1'au , too ? " "Oh , but ho wouldn't bo half so nice , now , you know , " chaffed her companion. It was now precisely a quarter past 12. nnd , at n signal from Sir Victor , the hunts man , Tom llalsey , blew hU horn and took the hounds at a brisk trot to the place where , at the commencement of the day , the scent was laid. * THE HOUNDS DASHHD OKF at once with a quick buiat. After n half dozen fairish jumps , taken In full view of the carriages , hounds nnd riders rapidly dlsap- penicd fiom sight. The line was a good one , . -taicing us alomc tlio Landcs du 1'ont Long and up tlio Sorres deMorlnas hill , leaving the wood on tlio right. After a short check on the top of the hill the hounds again took up the scent , lan through Bullion , Jispcchcd and Sedzorc , running Into the fox at Gnbaston. The pace , which at liist was only steady , became quite hot toward tlie last part. Tliero was considerable comlni : tc grief , and but live were up at the tinlsh. Atter waiting n few moments to sen tlio fo > broken up nnd the brush and pads distrlb uted , we rodu back to Morkias , whither several oral of the ladles had driven on to meet U ! and order lunch. Thus merrily ended a caj > - ital day's sport. On Thursday there will b ( no drag , Sir Victor intending to try and draw the covers around the Lascar ami TJzoin. KALNOCUY'.S POSITION.

Ulalno's Vlowfl on Civil Hcrvico Itc- form Altered Ity Ills Knctnlcs. Arot-RTA , Me. , Nov. 10. The following letter will bo published here to-morrow : To the Kdltor of the Kwincbcc Journal : ! thank you for calling my attention to the cir cular Issued by tlio so-called independent committee during the lecent canvass In .Mas sachusetts touchlui ; my position on civil ser vice refoim. Absence from homo for several weeks has prevented my seeing It sooner. The circular embodies a singular perversion of what I said and a still moro Mnsnlnr peiversion of what I yuotcd In a speech on the 1'Jth of October , at Huntlngtou. I'a. How tlio cnor of mlsroi > - resentatlon originated , it Is not for mo to say.d.My sneeehcs In 1'minsylvanla were ac- piiintcly reported for tlie 1'liilndelphla 1'iess by skilled stenographers , and 1 personally saw tint report in no other paper. I send you herewith my speech of October Hi , as It appealed In the 1'rcsx , nnd lespectfully ask you to republish It In your columns side by side with the circular Issued by the Massachuseets Independent committee. I than ! ; you I ml her tor sub mitting to me the public letter of October 'M from .Mr. Martin Itrimmer , of Boston , in which I m ac cused of "rnpudiatlni ; the reform of the civil service with n sneer. " Perhaps Hilm- mer Inconsiderately based his lemnrks upon the circular of the Independent committee. MHI has thus been led Into publishing n state ment which does mo great Injustice. If my supposition is correct , Brimmer will , as a gentleman , withdraw his language. It Is scarcely necessary to say Iliat I have never repudiated lelorm In the civil service , nor abated my Interest therein. Nor mvo 1 ever regarded a sncor as a I'orclblo mode ot argument. Were 1 tempted to lesort to it I should direct it , not against relorm of the civil service , but against tlio hypocrisy of those who wish tlio conditions of that service to bo enforced nznlnst their political opponent , but not against Iliolr political friends. Tlio point which 1 sought to establish in my speech at Ituntlngton was entirely confused and ob scured In the Independent circular , lu elfect I said that tlio ICnglish civil service , which was held up as n model for our own coverniucnt by those who left the icpubllcan party two years ago , Is now under such Investiga tion and apparent condemnation by the Er.nllsli themselves that the British ministry have instituted a commission to examine into the alleged abuses : that George W. Smalley , apparently agreeing hitherto with tlio American admiicis of the English service , now declares the belief in England to bo that their civil service is worse in all departments of tliogovorniuuntthan it was forty years aso. Smalley gives a somewhat detailed recital of tlio defects and abuses alleged to exist In the English service defects and abuses which were never attributed to our own civil ser vice oven by Its most merciless censor. My argument implied and was intended to imply that tlio lepublican party had been wise in not adopting the English system , witli its liin tenure nud its largo pension list and nil attendant evils. which linvo at last demanded Investigation by a ministerial com mission , nor would justice and lair courtesy have been done to mv speech , even if my re- mniks on the civil service , torn fiom their logical connection , had been eorrcctlv quoted by the independent committee. Those re marks were but a part of an argument In which I endeavored to illustrate how trulv \merican in its best sense were tlio whole policy and history of the republican natty , and how , under tlio head of the so-called Independents , tlio democratic paity. both In its revenue system and In Its civil seivico rules , was to bo conformed to British policies just at the very time when British abuses are finding a fatal weakness in these policies. In short , though I did not say so In words , I meant to convey my belief that tlio very worst leaders and guides lor a continental republic arc these who persist In seeing the perfection 01 human government in an insular monarchy whoso conditions are in all respects radically dllTeieiit from those of our own broad laud. Massachusetts Independents should leain that American inspiration ends where imita tion ol'Eugllsli begins. Very lespectfully , JAMES G. ULAINE. 1)0\VN WITH SOO1AL.1SM. .

[ Special Telegram to the 15KK.J The procrnmmo of yesterday was repeated at tlio stock yards to-day. The superintendents , representing the various packers , met the assembled workmen nt the Iiolnts designated In the sheriff's order , And selected such ns they wished to have resume work to-day. It Is somewhat humiliating to strikers who have been so boastful to hnvo to leturn after nil , and allow the packers to cull them as they would stock , but they stand It manfully. More of the old workmen were taken In than on yesterday , nnd perhaps 40 per cent of the cmplojes engaced In the strike are now back within tlio packing houses. The sold lei s were used Mils morn- lug as bcfoio to clear the viaducts and dis perse the largo crowds at the entrances who were not wanted There was no resistance and very little bad feellnn. The old men would shout to tlio militia : "You're all right : wo used to wear the blue coats nnd bra-is buttons ourselves. " Not a few of the younirer men were heard to remaik : "Wo have liad euoiich of tills Idleness. If we get to work now It will bo some tlmo before wo will again obey orders to milt woik , " All Is not lovely In the unclclnc houses. Very many of the old butchers taken buck aio stubbornly llghtim ; tlio iron-clad agree ment of tliu packets. Many have refused to sign it , and qiiito a force in Swift's walked out when tlio binding contract was tiiosentcd to them. At the house of Nelso Jforris an other disagreement lias arisen. The packer proposes to pay by the hour and to pay only lor time actually worked. Heretofore if tlio men reported for tlio day and had but two or three hours' wink they got full time. The men who went to work for .Morris yesterday accepted the new deal and are at work to day , but these who were selected to return to woik to-day sent a committee to Mr. Morris to say that thcv would not outer the liouso unless paid tor full time , and they did not go to woik. It is probable that to-morrow will witness the return of the soldiers from the stock yards. I'tiBUKO-l'NKUaiONlA. the Cattle I'tauae UCHO- ItitloiiH DGMOiiiicliii ! Inoculation.

The commlttco on investigation reported "that the disease now prevalent among the cattle In distillery stables and elsewhere in Chlcnso and vicinity is conta gious pleuro-pueomonla lung plague , or linger senclie , which termsjaro synonymous , and your committee Is further of the opinion that the only way In which the Infected lo calities can bo freed from the infection is by slatightcrof all diseased and exposed animals and n careful disinfection of the infected premises. " Dr. Hopkins , of Wyoming , offerd the fol lowing , which was referred to the committee on resolutions : Whereas , contagious pleuro-pnouiuonia of Battle exists In certain restricted localities of tlio United States ; and Whereas , Inoculation Ss being practiced in certain states as a preventive measure and Is being advocated for general adoption ; and Whereas , the experience ot other nations has shown that this contagion Is prevalent In localities whore inoculation is practiced , and that Inoculated cattle are dangerous to other animals with which they alterward cohabit ; and Whereas , the veteilnary profession of Europe condemns Inoculation except in lo calities that are thoioughly Infected and whoio no effort is being made to extirpate tlio phujtio : therelorobe it Itesolved by this convention of veterinary and state sanitary boards , That , considering the limited territory Infected in this country , every effort should bo directed to a thorough eradication of. this disease from America ; and be it lurtlicr Itesolved , That wo consider inoclation to bo an oxtiemely dangerous and objectionable practice in tlio present condition of allair.s in tills country , and ono which should bo dis counted by the veterinary profession nnd bo prohibited by law ns long as tliero is a possi bility of stamping out the disease.

I A good deal of agitation exists among members of conaress In the city to night over the revelations made In the pollco Investigation now progressing here , and a congressional inquiry Is threatened. One southern member has been seriously com- proml > cd by the testimony taken , and a great deal of sympathy Is expressed by his fellow statesmen. It has been shown In the Invcs- tlgatioH that Major Walker , the superintend ent of police , recently Instructed his lieuten ants to shadow members of congress who weio In the habit of frequenting disreputable portions of the city , so that the Information might bo used In socurlni ; legislation favora ble to the police force. The older was In tended to bo conlldcntlal , but it leaked out through Lieutenant Arnold and It reached the ears of the president , nnd hence an inves tigation is now going on. Walker denies giving such an order , but the testimony of the pollco refute the explanation which ho makes to tlio elTcct that ho Intended to simply call for all information the police could net in favor of his request for an increase of tlio force. It Is said that Ike Hill , deputy sorgeant-at-iirius of the house , has Ircquontly , when there is a call of the house at night , gene to n bawdy house which Is maintained for congressmen , and found members and brought them out , liut little stress is generally put upon the threat to have a congressional investigation of tills affair. Once before , when Whltliouse , of Tennessee , was chaliman of the committee on naval affairs , and llobesou's administra tion of tlio navy was under circumspection , such an investigation was threatened , but was choked off.

A number of labor agitators aw hero ninkini : arraimcmcuts for a formal and tniciblc demand lor an extra session ot con gress to consider labor questions. Colonel Kdward Daniels , editor of "Our Country , " a New York labor organ , is loading the move ment , and of Ids purposes said lo-niiht : "Tho first great duty of organized labor at this moment is to demand resolutely respect ful and deliberate consideration at the hands of congress. Nearly all the evils and disa bilities which American labor now suffers can ho remedied or ameliorated by national legislation. They are nearly all directly traceable to the monopoly of the soli , to a currency system which makes exchanges of property and services difficult and expensive , and to the schemes of transporta tion which makes tax production , consumption and travel Qiiormous in the in terest ot private and corporate greed. The remedies are simple and direct. The land must bo restored and the way to acquire homes made easy. .Money must bo made ac cessible ut tlio lowest r.itc.of Interest to all who need it by government loans to tlio people ple and the states to pay tholr debts , save their homes from forced sales and enable tlio people to buy and sell freely and thus to con sume largely each other's products. Trans portation must bo made to servo tlio people at cost under government control. Taxation must bo reduced and the hoards in the na tional treasury paid out for Its debt and for needed public work to employ the idle work ers. These are the great measures upon which organized labor is coming ton full agreement. ISut what holn is there ? Not ono of them can be considered even In the rush and hurry of n regular session of congress. Tlio last ses sion continued cluht months and with earn est professions upon their lips , the members allowed every distinctive- labor measure to bu crowded out. We are now near the opening ot tlio short session , which expires by limita tion on tlio 4th of March , 1637. The routine business will occupy all its thiitecn weeks and it is folly for us to look to It for any de cisive measure of iclief. An extra session of the new congress will alone meet the exigen cy. All the forces of labor should concen trate to secure this. They should appeal to the picsident to call the new congress to meet as soon as possible utter the 4th of Match , or ganize and consider the needs of labor. The session should bo a gr.uul inquest upon tlio condition of work and workers in this land. Upon it should bocoiicentrated all the blazing llulit of modern knowledge. To it should come tlio representative men of organized labor to voice Its demands. Such a session will tiring deliverance from all ills and it the people demand the president will grant It.

Ills Itccotnmcitilntlnii'J For the Htutc Mllltln. WASHINGTON , Nov. 10. In his annual re port of the oporatlous-of his ollico during the pastycar , Adjutant General Drum devotes some space to recommendations touching the Improvement of thu militia , and makes the following recommendations : State en campments , to bo of absolute bcnelit , should at least bo of ten days' duration , and while established at convenient points , looking to economy In the concentration of troops , should bo at a sulllclotit distance from tlio homes of the members of the command In order to overcome business and social Intlu- Gticc.1 , which seriously affect the efforts of Im parting Instruction and holding tlio men in hand for drills , target practice , guard duty , etc. Tlio programme of military exercises should exclude elementary company drills , and the time of the encampment devoted to Instruction and practice In skirmish and bat talion drills and guard duty. As most of the fUhtiu ? in future must bo dona In open order thorough acquaintance of the skirmish drill Is of the highest Importance. Olllcers should bo required to recite UDOII ttio duties of guards and sentinels and In struction In guard duties bo given to tlio men in the armories. So far as tlio fatigue uniform or dress for field service is con cerned It would be advantageous for the authorities of each state to prescribe a simple , plain but serviceable fatigue uniform for all Its troops , to which tlio companies might gradually conform within a limited time- say one year. This is not Intended to Interfere - fero with the right of each command to wear such lull dress uniform as It may have selected for wear on lovlews , parades and oilier occasions ot pure ceremony. Obsolete arms and ammunition In tlie handset ot state troops should be replaced by im proved cuns of thtt-samo pattern as In the lianas of the regular army and suitable am munition provided. Exhibition drills , while interesting as showing to what degree of mechanical precision a body of men eiu : bo trained to attain In movements and motions , are undesirable features of military corps. In every instance tlie development of ex- tronio. smartness in drills involves a neglect of some of the most important and solid parts of a soldier's training. Tlio repoit on target practice at the Maine encampment is most creditable to the troops participating and demonstrates what results can bo obtained from careful instruction and practical d elnline in tills lintmitnnt service. Tlio great want Is a tliorougn course of in struction prescribed from state headquaiters and rigidly insisted upon , and tlio establish ment in each state of a board before which Incompetent ofllcers could bo broimht for their elimination from the militia ser vice of the state. Every ollicer elected should , bcfoio appointed , bo subject to examination byaboaidof ( iflicersof which , if possible , regimental and brUado ofllcers nnd inspectors ieiieral.s should bo members. Tlio material composing the militia of tlio several states Is generally excellent and zeal ous , and intelllzence the rule , but tlio former must lie wisely directed and the latter syste matically cultivated. The adjutant general says tlio reports of army ollicers perform ing tlio duties of professors of tactics and military sciences at military colleges shows a steadily gi owing In terest In military Instruction asovidenced br the increased peicentago of students attend ing drills , etc. , ami a decree of the appiecia- tlon ol tlio value ot tlie system on the part of tlio collejo authorities The aptitude of American scholars for military exercise is undoubtedly pood. The adjutant general says that in order to bo thoioughly elllcient , the ollicc''s detailed ns instructors in mil itary science should bo made mem bers of tlio faculties of tlio institution with which they serve. Attention is called to tlio loss to tlio govern ment arising from the frequency of applica tions for discharge from tlie army , ami the report suggests that , it would bo an impro priety to enact legislation making discharges conditional to reimbursement to thu govern ment of tlie oxponsu of recruiting and transportation except In cases where the Ions and laithful service of tlio applicant convoys an element of favorable consideration. Itegret is expressed at tlio reduction of the appiopnatlons as compared with tlio esti mates for tlio support of tlio military prison at Fort Leavenwoith , and It is said Hint as a result scarcely any progress lias been made In bringing Its capacity tea point required to ntl'ord accommodations and profitable em ployment for all the military prisoners who should in proportion bo sent there. Tlio money value of the work performed by the prisoners in manufactures was feyy.syu , which was within S50 of all the expenses of the prison for the yo.ir , iiml the opinion is ex- piessed that the prison will soon bo self-sup porting. In regard to tlio unsatisfactory quality of shoes manufactured in tlio prison It is stated tint tlie trouble arose tiom de fective lasts and in tlio details of construc tion that have. It is believed , been remedied. A Frntoriial Society Congress. WASHINGTON , Nov. 10. Delegates repre senting seventeen fraternal societies with a membership of SoO.uuO met at the Itiggs house in this city to-day and organized a na- lloual congress of fraternal honcllclnry societies.

Tlio following Important bill was filed before ,1ud o Crelgli- ton , of the circuit couit to-day , wlt'i ' nn order that It bo docketed and the attorney general itiled lo answer within llueo days : State ot Illinois , Satig.imon county. To the Hon. James A. Creiuhlon , one of the judges of the circuit court In clinuivty sitting : Your orator , I'hcclnn Howard , a rttlzcn and taxpayer , o Vormlllion county , stale ot Illinois , respectfully showeili : That at n legular session ol tlio general assembly of said slate , to-wll : on Iho -'Olli dnv ot iliine , lv , the following lolnt resolution was passed and nnptoved oy the senate and liouso respectively : Itosolvod , That hereaiter It shall bo unlaw ful for the commissioners of any penitentiary or leformntory Institution In Illinois to let by contract to any person or persons , or cor poration the labor of any convict collned In said institution. That said roolutton was by proper procla mation submitted to the electors ot saul state on the HI day ot November , 1SST > , : m an amendment to the constitution : and your orator does and has reason to believe that a innlorlty of the electors at said election i'a < t their ballots In favor of snld lesolutloii and Its limitations. Yourointor , usnlawahldlnceit- l/.en nnd n ro < s | ortor of the organle law of the state , con clciitlomly believes thai the manner of tlie submission of said lesolution Is in matter and form averse to the constitu tion. First , 'odious II and VI of article It of the constitution , provides how the same shall be alteted , tovised or amended , and In the closing sentence of section 2 , posi tively deelares that tlie general assembly shall have no power to propose aiuendment.s to iiioio than 0110 article ol tlio constitution at the same session , nor lo tlie same aiticlo ofteiierthan oueo In suven years. Secondly , the act of the general assembly glvlnc vitality and effect to lids clauo of the constitution is entitled Chapter 7 , nnd was approved March 14 , Ib74- Section 4 of said chapter leads ns follows : "At such election on the ballot of each elector voting upon the pro posed amendment or argument shall bo written - ton or printed the words : 'For proposed amendment to section of arllclo of the constitution , ' or 'Atralnst the pioposed amendment to section of article ot tlio constitution. ' " Your orator has dill- izently searched tlio constitution and nowhere - where finds any reference to penal or reformatory institutions , or any article or section even by Implication alluding to con vict labor , and therefore Is ol tlio belief that Raid resolution Is not geimano to any article or section of the constitution , and although ratified by tlie ucople should bo held as null and void. Your orator avers nnd is preiiaieil to show that there was no uniformity In the method and manner of submitting said icsolution to tlio electors of the state ; that in violation ol the statute ceitniii ballots weto piesented and voted containing only the words "For pro posed amendments , ' ' other ballots contained the words "For proposed amendment and agninst the pioposed iimeiulment , " and a train other ballots contained Iho winds "For , " and then recited the resolution in full. Your orator further believes that it was never the In'.eutof ' the frameis of the constitution to delegate to the general assembly the power to add on joint resolution the separata and dis tinct proposition us an amendment to the constitution , for If it be construed , what is to prevent each succeeding general assembly trom adding orginal , separate and distinct propositions , ono after another , to tlio con stitution till finally it would bo utterly des troyed. Therefore , your orator prays lor tlio Issuance under the seal of your honorable circuit court of a restraining writ of Injunction directed to Charles 1' . Swigeit , auditor of state ; Heniy D. Dnmcfnt , secretary of slate ; .laco'j Gross , treasurer of state , and Geonso Hunt , attorney general , tlie regulaily constituted board of canvassers of said ballots cast for Iho resolution hero set "forth , that the same .shall not bo counted nor the total of votes footed tip and also directed to Kiehard O. Oglesby , governor , that ho may bo restrained from Issuing any proclamation declaring that said resolution has become pail of tlie constitution and lethe the end that said constitution may bo pre served from violence , and the statute may in pursuance thereof bo protected and defended.
