ON PLYMOUTH ROCK. Dedication of the National Monument to the Pilgrims. . The Moot Important Event In the HI*' tory at Out Country Fittingly Con* awaonml lu Enduring Granite ami Marble. HritairrH, Um, Aug. i—The greed National mciauuient iu honor of the f'tU grime was dedicated yesterday; The soil* and daughters df plyittctdtU were herd id gredt numbers. The weather of the early morning was unpropltious, dad i* was necessary to view the parade frond beneath umbrellas, a heavy shower prevailing. The celebration bega^ at snnrise with a salujg^%^ Battery A, and the rtugfagtlf'*tSeben8. The morning trains brought Jarwe numbers of strangers and a great throng surrounded the new monument at half-past ■iae o'clock when the dedicatory exercises Wd»w begun by the Masonic Grand Lodge, according to the ritaalof their order. These exercises were very interests ing. - The band rendered a selection by John K. Paine, following which the song of praise written by R. W. Thomas Power was sung by the Temple Quartette. Following the song came the address of the president of the Pilgrim Society, ex-Qov-ernor Long; the response of Grand Master Henry Eadlcotrt proclamation by Grand Marshal George U. Rhodes) reading of Scripture selections by Grand Chaplain Rot. Charles A. Skinner) prayer By the Grand dhaplaln| report on the examination of the monument and libations of corn and wine by the junior and senior grand wardens respectively. The libation of oil by Deputy Grand Master Samuel Wells wks followed by the invocation by the grand chaplain. Grand Master Henfjr Kudicott then delivered an address. The entire assembly then sung an appropriate closing hymn to the tune of “America.1* The exercises concluded with a proclamation by the grand master, benediction by the graud chaplain and the Pilgrim Chorus by the band. Meantime the procession had been formingi And at eleven o'clock moved, In seven divisions, over an extended route. At the completion Of the parade the officers and members of the Pilgrim Society, with the orator, poet and guests, took their places in the great dining tent and the feast provided for the occasion was discussed for an hour. Then cx-Governor "Long Introduced the orator of the day, Mr. Breckinridge, who arose atnid apprecia* tive applause and delivered his oration t It bas been Urged tbat one ot the honors to be given to these revered men is that tgsy were “at the beginning ’ at our institutions; that they left behind them the old forms and institutions of the other continent and started new institutions, based on new principles apd protected by new governmental modes. But Institutions are growths, not manufactures. <The option of institutional material at any given time ia limited; the choice left to statesmen Is narrow, the margin between the lines ot development is relatively smalt, and herein lies the claim to honor among the immortal who hare deserved well Ot mankind.that at the critical moment, perhaps amid the din of perilcat battle, they chose wisely and heroically. And, as the growth contours ceaselessly, there constantly recurs the necessity tor new choice, the obligation of fresh decision. Thus it is that on the one hand each generation must meet and solve its own problems and yet, on the other hand, each generation tlnds that what bas been done before it came Into power has limited its action ami shut it up In straight^ ened lines of cho re. No historian has g.ven to those who Brst suffered for the sublime truth

-V V . '.'J the separation of Church uiul Slate, that place of eminence which Is by right theirs. This It the truth, to which the pilgrim fathers testified. This truth tbeff first brought to Am rica. This is their true honor: this their fadeless crown. The company "which came over in the Mayflower." was the Calv.ntette Protestant church. Its peculiarity was that It Was a separatist church. It aras purely English. It differed alike from the Catholic and English churches, including the Puritans in the English choreh. and the difference was Wide, fundamental, . had irreconcilable. It inrolred nothing lean than the whole question of enforced or free religion, the difference which separated and still separates the Stale church tram the free. What la Invoiced in th-a belief! That tho church laa voluntary spiritual association, to be governed only by the laws of Christ, and entirely free as a cbureh from the domlaat on of the stale. The honor duo to the Plymouth fathers te that they flrst brought that truth us a practical, vital principle of governmental life to this couMueat. ft Was an Immense stride when this separation was won. The nett step was more safety taken, that churches were voluntary organisations, “when the coaseotot the governed” gave authority overalls member*. As soon as it te a mhnerof right Hi unite with or withdraw from a church, to organise or destroy a church, then rol gious freedom becomes permanent. For, to volunian'y unite with any church presupposes the right to refrain from union with any religious body. Hut for a higher reason this is also true, forms based on the right ot private lodgment; and this is intellectual. No man ean e cci tor himself the doctrines he-nU believe, the facts be trill accept, the forma he prefers and tho rommuuioa he yearns (or until he possesses mental freedom. We fall to realise how small were the vessels which bore the founders of States and bow mo^or was ibe largest operation for such ventures. Anl when we try to weigh the necessities for successful colonisation in such a climate and country as our* then was, that all suyh venture* dwlnutfait mwnsarTcl. But here, as everywhere, the Man in the enterprise te the factor of prime Importance; with all our marvelous Inventions and accomplishments, the irue factor ot success 1s the Man. The central point In that sad day s event* was .that their reverend pastor, falling om his knees, and all of them with him. commended them with fervent tears to the lord. It was an o(Octal act of the pastor as too selected port of an organised church then set apart to the task ol establishing a new homo in America There was uncivil government. The immigrants did not believe in a theocratic state any mdre than In a secularised church. It was necessary to orguntea a Iona of civil government, and oat of that necessity sprang that noble Instrument known ns the social compact of the forefathers. That such a compact was deemed neeassary demonstrates how scrupulously these men held to the separation of state and ebarifc. Already an organised church they, by their own convietiona of the province of its powers and ihe limitations of Its authority, felt competed to Iona a civil body politic. True, emigrants do not leave their country behind them, they eurry it with their faith and customs. Men die, these survive- They enter Into the beliefs, convictions, life and hopes of composite people who are bom. trained and live under their influence. These forefathers brought with them the.r conception of E nglamt -their England. They brought no title* or ranks: no priestly hierarchy, uo ecclesiastical ranks and orders; no complicated system of they did bring with them monogamlc with Us indtvidnaltty and sanctity of _the rights of the subject to the protection of lawVthesacrodneesot Individual property: the precedent consent before the levying of taxes, and the right Vo express la some legal and prescribed manner their will lor there who weriTto represent them in legislature and ebureb. It te not true, except in a narrow acuta, that they ware freed from the inslltntiona of the Old World and at liberty to choose world.^No'Sn'tere ever mow fully committed by th« prepotency of blood, -he-ro‘c-^te,te £? daman*

Aug. 4. -The batUe which has been impending in Egypt daily since the iuvasiou of the dervishes toot place yesterday. The invaders resumed their ffinrsb, moving northward slowly and with caution. General Grenfell, with two thousand infantry and five hundred cavalry, moved up from Assouam and met the enemy at Tosdi. where they barred farther advance. Fighting began yesterday morning, General Grenfell attacking * Arabs in force. The latter repeatedwTStciSl themselves against the lines, and "TTriSfi ■’P1** their way through, but all they were finally rooted, uuaoieto resist tbs steady advance of the British and Egyptian lines. > They fought with desperate courage, and fled only when they fouud their furious assaults failed to check the British advance. The Dervish Chief and principal Emirs were killed, and fifteen hundred of the men were killed and wounded. General Grenfell reports the loss of the Anglo-E gyptliau forces at about fifty killed sad woundedt^-The number of Arabs engaged to not known, but it is believed they can :»0< recover from their present defeat, and that the back of the invasion is broken. The news reached London at a late hour last night. It did not spread beyond the newspaper offlees, and was not generally knowa until this morning. The press was taken by surprise. It was noli expected that a decisive battle on so large' a scale would occur so early. Fears are expressed that it has boen‘ fought prematurely, that only a portion of the invadiug force has been 3truck, as in all previous engagements, aud that General Greufell should have waited uutihall his reinforcements had come up and the enemy had massed in full force. Jt is probable, however, that he had no choice; that the enemy precipitated the coufliot, especially by their advance down the river in the teeth of the approaching forces, and that he determined to attack as he did, to anticipate their terrible onslaught. General Grenfell in taking this course would avail himself of his knowledge of Arab warfare, and the result as reported fully justifies his taotics. He has still a great task before him to rid the country ot a host of human locusts, pushed to Invade the land as much by hunger as by fanaticism and thirst for revenge. London, Aug. A—England is drawing a )ng breath of relief after tho nows of he complete rout of her enemies in !gypt,on the banks of the Nile, early atimlay morning. Further details of he battle received here yesterday decribe it as a scene of retaMgag slaugh?r, such as could scarco^Hccttr where oth combatants are civtnWi soldiers, lor does the responsibility for thebutchry rest upou tho Kuglish troops aud heir Egyptian allies. Long after the ate of the day had been deided; after all hope of recoverag their lost gronud must have been bandoued by the fauatioal dervishes, hey continued to hurl themselves upon heir foes, only to bwmsreiteoely mowed own as ripe grain before the reaper, ■hey refused all quarter and gave none, ait with a grim determination that knew at two issues to a fight—victory or oath—they fought as bravely and as tabbornly. when the deadly fire of their nemies had cut great swaths in their anks, and when every movement was ampered by the piled-up bodies of their wn dead, as when first, with unbroken rout, and confident of victory, they iced their foasu It was while leading the scattered emnants of bts brave warriors in this urlorn hope that the dervish leader Vad-el-NUumt, fell, pierced by a bullet a his brain. His followers, nothing aunted by his fate, dashed themselves ver and. over again upon the pitiless nd unbroken line of rifle barrels in ront of the** and kept up the fight long fter every vestige of organisation mong thefn had been destroyed and rhen nothing was left for the scattered anaties but to sell their lives as dearly 3 possible. 8b'it came that fully oneialf of tbesiavaders’ force was left dead ipon the field. The smalt number of fighting men rhich Wad-el* N’Jumi brought into the ngagement to a complete surprise. All stimatee heretofore credited him with in available force of no less than six honsand men, while it turns out that he ould not at anytime have had more than ialf that nninber. The whole dervish ores is now completely wiped out, and ill immediate danger of an invasion rta that quarter to at an end.
