President Green's Quarterly Report—No Dividend. NEW YORK, September 8.—President Vorvin Green submitted the following quarterly statement at the directors' meeting to-day: Surplus July 1, 1886, $4,309,833. The net revenues of the quarter ending September 30th inst. based upon nearly completed returns tor July, and partial returns for August, and estimating business for September, will be about $1,200,000 and surplus Julyl, as above $4,309,838. Total, $5,509 833. From which appropriating for interest on bonds, $123,615 sinking fund $20,000 total $143,615, leaving a balance of 36,366,218. The gross earnings from ^current land service on commercial messages continue to show an increase and "would be very satisfactory but for the •great amount of business being done rbetween the large commercial centers •without profit, if not at absolute loss. "The cable business under tbe prevailing low rates has increased largely, and it is confidently hoped that the business will soon reach a volume that will yield a revenue equal to any ever before earned, and permanently establish cheap cable service. The executive committee recommend that no dividend be declared.

Nation^T Garden Theater. The attendance at the Garden last evening was very large, the company comprising some of the leading Vaudeville artists of America. The-manage-ment were disappointed Monday evening by the non-appearancc of the Morris sisters, who were billed to appear in their varied specialties, and their disappointing somewhat disarranged the programme. Miss Agnes Atherton, a charming and brilliant song and dance artist and serio comic vocalist, made her first appearance last evening, and made a decided hit.

Conners, the wonderful clog dancer, stands without a peer in the profession. The old favorites, Lsoni and Nelson, in their original conception, "Tack's Return," were fully up to the standard, and were well received. Fernando in a new_ and select transfiguration, specialty pleased the patrons of the garden immensely. Miss Sadie Norwood in her Kehoe club exercises scored a hit. To-nijifct will be presented a grand minstrel first part, introducing the full strength of the company.

We represent the Ulster Loyalist anti Repeal Union, an organizat'on composed of different creeds and elements. Our object is the maintenance of legislative union in tbe United Kingdom, and we do not mo as a deputation to any party or section. Mr. Parneil is a landlord himself, having property County Micklow, bringing in a rental of £1,300 a year. About five years ago he piesented a petition (or the 6ale of this property to the land and estates court, in order to pay off incumbrances amounting to £130,000 After paying incumbrances in full, Mr. Parnell netted- £25,000 Though his party enunciates the doctrine that occupiers, of the soil ought to be owners, he bas never proposed to put his own tracts in that position on any terms whatever. He ischarseitrizMi as a landlord who enforces payment of his rents when due by process writs. His brother, who permanently resides, in the United States, has a property in the country of Armagh rccuped by tenants whs at the present moment if tbey have-not paid their rents within one fortnight after it is due are served with writs trouo the su peror courts for the recovery of^ 3 amount, and before October 20tb, .'JS-5, thirty five writs were served in one day for rents due in September 29th and only one was for more than $20. Tbe union is not opposed to home rule so far as it means an extension of the principles of local government on lines which will be a»plic*ble to other parts of the United Kingdom, but we will oppose to the death the dismemberment of the Uaited Kingdom. This we believe is the aim oi the National League."

WAR PREPARATIONS.

Eafoi-clog a Conscription at the point of the liayxnet, CONSTANTINOPLE, Ss^.U iiber 8.—The porisi continues to make aciive war prepations and present indications point to the drafting of all men for immediate service able to do military duty. Dispatches from Beyroot state Sejrian reserves have been summoned for service in the Salonica district on the Roumeliau frontier. The conscription has to be enforced at the .int of the bayonet. Several thousand troops have been sent from Beyroot to Damascus to reinforce the conscription. The populace throughout Syria are greatly excited and fears of an insurrection are entertained. Becrnits are leaving their families destitute.

Op!fiion§ Regarding- the Race To-day. NEW YORK, September 8.—The defeat of the Galatea in its yesterday's yacht race is talked about everywhere to-day The Mayflower's supporters are more confident than ever that tbe American cup will stay on this side of the Atlantic. Cuttermen stand by the Galatea and say her performance in a light wind yesterday was only short of marvellous. They expect the Britisher to win in tomorrow's race to windward. The Mayflower men are willing to concede that if the first twenty miles should be beat to windward to-morrow the Galatea might lead, bat that coming back the Mayflower, with a free sheet home, will not only cut down the lead, but pass the Briton and win, with a few minutes to spare. The prospects fpr tomorrow's race are good. The officers of the signal office think fairly strr winds will come out of the east.

Wants a Divorce.

In the superior court Ella Thornberry has entered her application for a decree of divorce from James Thornberry. She ays she was married in 1872 and lived as a faithful wife with the defendent until 1883. Daring all that intervening time, defendent treated her in a cruel and inhuman manner, striking her repeatedly, and, while drunk, tearing her clothes into ribbons, and on one' occasion trying shoot her with $ revolver. She was forced to leave him in 1883 and has not since lived with him. She asks the court to dissolve the marriage.

Hint to Politicians and Other People. Learn to be brief. Long visits, long stories, long exhortations and long prayers seldom profit those who have to do with them. Life is short. Moments are precious. Learn to condense, abridge, and intensify. We can enduie many an ache and ill if it is soon over, while even pleasures grow insipid and pain intolerable if they are protracted beyond tbe limits of reason and convenience. Learn to be brief. Lop off branches stick ti the main fact in yBur case. Boil down two words into one, and three into two.

Ward, a member of the Marion county committee, is out in a letter, withdrawing from bis place because of Bynum's nomination. Among other things, he says:

Indiana's senior senator talks pleasing platitudes to the massee at home, but votes with the monopolists in Washington. He nosee before the Irish element as a friend to their race and an advocate of their aspirations, yet in the matter of the state treasury ship, not long ago, he sulked from the side of 'one of their most esteemed representatiyee—broad-minded, patriotic Bat SHanon—and, to subserve his own personal ends, violated tbe promise be had made to the man who had been his benefactor in seasqns of pecuniary need. In furtherance, again, of paltry, personal aims, regardless of the shame it brought upon reflecting and selfrespecting Irishmen in IrdifBoa, and with a capacity for clap-trap besoming to a "Jeremy

Beautiful Sonle.

Philadelphia Call. Beauty attracts tbe eye at first but after you come to know people very ia timately you do not know whether they are pretty or not. Their wayB make an impression on yoa, but not their noses and ears, their eyea and mouth. In time the soul expresses itself .to you, and it is that which you see. A man who has been Qiarried twenty years hardly knows what his wife looks like. He may think he does, and tell you she is a bewitching little brunette long after she has reached middle life, because tbe image of his early love is in bis heart, and he doesn't see her as she is to day. Or, being an indifferent husband, he may not know she is the fine woman that other poople think her. You haYe known men who have married the plainest women, and think them beauties and you know beauties who are quite thrown away on men who value a wife for her success as a cook.

nothing did her any good. She was1 did her dumb, but had all th«rther senses During the excitement of tbe first earthquake shock last Tuesday night she, in her fright, attempted to call her brother. He was frightened himself when he heard her whisper his name. Since then she bas gradually regained her voice, and now .talks with perfect fluency. She says she was almost delirious with joy when sbe found that she could speak Her voice was low and her tbroat sore for three days, and she had trouble in finding words to express her thoughts.

Liine of Onre for Stuttering. Scientific American. Stuttering is a purely nervous difficulty. The vocal muscles are able to do perfect work, but, from diffident innervation, tbe mind cannot command them fully, and the trouble of speech commences, and soon the habit is formed, and generally grows worse and worse. The mind fears tint the words will fail, and as the result they do fail. If the fear could be removed, the trouble would in large part cease. A cure can be accomplished in no way but by persistent and determined effort of the sufferer himself Others can accomplish little for bim. If bis attention and his fear can be removed from the muscles of his throat while speaking, if he can forget that any trouble is there, be will soon improve in his power. TKisis.one line in which his efforts must be made, and with persistent patience it can be successful. -v,
