‘houses and homes as are seen

The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher on

delivered an interesting lecture in the Academy of Music, Brooklyn, in which he described his recent extended tour over the American continent, when he travelled

18,600 miles and was absent 122 days. In) : ie| and the promising sign of the times is that

all this period he encountered but a sing rainy day, and only once found the sky overcast. In the course of his lecture the rev. gentleman said:—‘‘Iit has been suppos- ed, even up to a very recent period, that the northwestern portion of our continent must be given up to winter and desolation. We have very few American towns that can surpass Winnipeg, whether you view its) business houses or the residences of its) wealthy citizens. [ recognized hardly any- where else in the West such magnificent in that

new city in the wilderness. scarcely ten years old. The Hudson Bay Company's store surpasses Stewart's

store in New York, and they were on the point of doubling ita capacity when I was there. All that I saw, all that 1 learned, filled me with surprise as well as gratifica- tion. One of the revelations made to me was the fact that, instead of this Northwestern territory being a how!l- ing wilderness and a _ desolation, it is the very paradise of wheat on this globe; and nowhere else in our own land, and nowhere else abroad is there any such wheat field as that which includes the territory on the north and on the south of the Great Northern Pacific Railroad. It is destined to be occupied by probably ten millions ef people before the end of this century. The summer is from four to five months in duration. The winter there is winter. It is considered a warm day when the temperature is 10 deg. above zero. It is a wholesome and refreshing time when the thermometer goes down from 40 deg. to 60 deg. below zero. That would seem to stand in the way of population, but Iam informed by those living there who have come from New York that they do not suffer in their winter half as much as they used to do in New York city. That was also the testimony of Minnesota, Dakota, and Montana. On account of the great dryness of the atmosphere at 40 deg. below zero, they do not feel so cold as they used toin New York city when the mercury was a little below freezing-point. The population of this British possession is mainly Scotch and English, with a scatter- ing of Scandinavian people, and is destined to carry English civilization with it on our great Northern border. Shut up, as they ate, for nearly eight months by winter, what must result? More oer less social relaxation and home life; entertainments and amusewents that do not turn on mere roaming and passions. tions on the globe are those in which the populations are shut up up for a consider- able period of the year, and are obliged to find their enjoyments in domestic relations and domestic life. I have been accustomed to say, thinking of California, that no people would, through a period of several generations, fail to run out more or less in a climate where they had no cellars to dig and no barns to build; that is to say, where nature is so provident that man is not obliged to look forward and make pro- visions for the future. The British posses- sions are, in the near future, going tu de- velop a very noble type of civilization after the method of our ideas, for the Govern- ment of the Dominion is substantially republican, Nominally, it is a colony of Great Britain, but in the management of its own aflairs it is almost absolute. Great Britain has learned how to manage ber colonies—namely, to pay them very large sums of money for their internal improve- ments and then leave them alone. If that policy had been pursued toward these colonies of ours before we learned our trade, I know not but what we should still be under the Crown, If we had to be under a erown, | do not know of any that I should prefer to that which is won by the ) illustrious Queen of Great Britain.”

A Sign of the Times.

Mr. Chamberlain, the President of the Board of Trade in England, whe is regarded as the most radical member of the Glad- stone Ministry, begins a recent article upon ‘Laborers’ and Artisans’ Dwellings’ in the Fortnight/y Review with the remark that ‘‘social reform is in the air,” and he pro- ceeds to make astatement which shows why it is so. Never before,” he says, ‘‘was luxurious living so general and wanton in its display, and never before was the misery of the poor man so intense, or the tonditions of their daily life more hopeless and more degraded. In the course of the last twenty years it is estimated that the annual income of the nation has in- creased by six hundred millions, but there are still nearly a million persons constantly in receipt of parish relief, and millicns more are always on the verge of this necessity.” In the Nineteenth Century an article by four writers upon ‘‘Common-sense and the Dwellings of the Poor” agrees that ‘‘things

At the same time it appears from a le@ter \from London tothe N. v.

to it. This is true both of England and cf this country. Bue it is un- pleasant to see the increasing taste for a merely ostentatious display of wealth and an extravagance of luxury which are not ofly essentially vulgar, but demoralizing and fu!l of ill presage. The New York, and other large cities of America, the moderation of whose house and manner cf living should reprove the Corinthian level which is so often emu- lated would be a true public benefactor, and a seasonable mediation for Lent would be reflection upon the folly of a merely costly and extravagent society.

Fenian Murders.

A leader of the Irish Republican Brother- hood has written to the Pall Mall Budget on ‘The Truth about the Fenian Murders.” He frankly admits that ‘‘a certain number of assassinations committed in Ireland and elsewhere have been indirectly traceable to the Fenian organization.” - Previous to 1863, he says, the Fenian body never ad- mitted the theory of the assassination, and its leaders spurned the stiletto of the assassin as they would the assasin himself. Before the starting of Fenianism ‘‘Ribbon- ism was predominent almost everywhere threughout the land,” but Fenianism broke up the Ribbon lodges and made them into 1. R. B. circles. As a consequence the Budget writer claims that agrarian crime almost disappeared from the country. In 1865 an *‘Inner Circle” was formed, having for its object the ‘‘doing away” with spies and informers. ‘It was composed of des- perate men, who had taken an oath to be loyal to one another in the extreme pro- jects they contemplated carrying out.”

In February, 1866, three or four of its members were told off to slay a Fenian brother named George Clark, who was reasonably suspected of having supplied the authorities with information which led to the discovery of the Fenian armery at Dub- lin, and the seizure of arms and ammunition which were kept there awaiting the insur- rection. The secret emissaries met the doomed man on the banka of the Royal Canal, Dublin, late at night, and ‘‘dealt’’ him several revolver shots, leagfing him almost lifeless on the roadside. Shortly afterwards a policeman arrived on the scene, and with the aid of a few bystanders Clark wes conveyed to the Mater Miseri- cordiz Hospital, where he exyired from the effects of the wounds and injuries he had received. I remember well the night in question. <A few of the other leading men of the I. R. B. who had not yet been arrested were closeted with myself discuss- ing the prospects of the coming revolution. A rumour was in circulation that Clark was to be victimized, as he was suspected of being an informer, I told the members present that such a crime, if carried out, would be as impolitic as it was odious—impolitic because it would probably bring Ireland under the suspen- sion of the Habeas Corpus Act, and fill the jails with men whose presence shortly on a battlefield was imperatively necessary, and odious because the killing of Clark meant the execution of a man whose guilt was not proven satisfactorily enough to warrant such a punishment. At that very moment, however, the deed was being done, and in a few days afterwards what I anticipated had taken place.

It is then related how other “obnoxious” men were ‘‘removed” by the conspirators, whose plains were carried out with the certainty and almost the secresy of the carbonari. A description of the manner in which S was murdered concludes :

Apropos of this incident an anecdote may be not inappropriately put on record to show the animus of the Irish people against the betrayers of their brethern. & , after having acquitted himself to the best of his abilities, paid his respects to an old and patriotic lady, a friend of mine, who had a vivid recollection of the rebellion of 98 and, who heartily sympathized with the efforts that we were making to revolutionize Ireland. ‘I have good news to tell you, madam,” said S——, with a chuckle. “What's that?” she quietly asked. ‘I’m after kicking an eye out of Warner,” he ejaculated. *‘ Ah!” cried the aged dame, with bitterness, ’ ah! the d—l was in your foot that you did’nt kick the other out too.”

" Bvicting a Dying Man.

A few mornings ago a constable, while on duty in Werburgh Street, Dublin, observed two men carrying the body of a man out of one of the houses there, and placing kim ia a sitting position on the footpath. On examing the body the officer found that life was extinct, and thereupon he entered the house and arrested the occupants, who gave their names as Joseph Lynch (farmer), James Coleman (plasterer), and Anne Robinson, a widow. The body was convey- ed to the hospital, where it was identified as that of John Frere, aged fifty, a lodger in the house. No marks of violence was found om it. From later inquiries it
