An Appeal. Tue President of the ‘‘Irish National League of America” has_ issued the foliow- ing appeal :—
~The corporation of Dublin, the metropoli- tan city i leeds has appealed to the Christ- ian world for the protest of humanity against the further persecution of the Irish people by the British government.
‘‘A time has come in the relations of Ire- land and England when the laws of God and the dictates of humanity become superior to every ruling of international etiquette, and demand from the morality of the world a stern denunciation of the course about to be pat sued by the tory government against the Irish
ople. eT he voice of America, at all events, should not be silent when additional outrages are to be inflicted on a robbed and persecuted na- tion. The British statesman, who now cham pions a policy of justice to Lreland and con- demns coercion as alike .cruel and impolitic, did not hesitate to denounce a similar op- pression by the Turks in Bulgaria.
‘‘Are the Irish less to America tham the Bulgarians were to England, that Americans should hesitate to interfere in Ireland's be- half, against the cruelties of the British gov- einment ?
“The Irish people have exhausted every means of moral and constitutional agitation to recover their just and legitimate social and political rights.
“The voice of Scotland, and of Wales and of the mass of the English democracy has sanctioned the efforts of Ireland and _ pro- claimed the justice of her cause. Gladstone,
Morley, Labouchere and every English leader |
worthy of the name of statesman have pro- claimed themselves advocates of Ireland's claims to legislative independence.
“It is no longer the English pore who op- pose the restoration of Ireland’s liberties, but the aristocratic robbers who have throttled alike both Britain and Ireland, and have fat- tened for generations on public plunder, with the proceeds of which they can use the lever of corruption to lift themselves into power and maintain themselves therein. The cause of Ireland is the cause of the British demo- cracy, and to this fact may we attribute the bitter and unrelenting opposition of the British tories.
“The [rish do not pretend to fight the British people, but against the oppressors of both.
‘*In this struggle the Irish have done all that morality can demand from an oppressed naticn, and now asa iast effort they ask the interference of the Christian world to prevent their destruction.
‘As president of the Irish National League of America, the representative body of the Irish race upon this continent, I re-echo that
appeal. I ask the American press and people |
to pass their verdict on the treatment now being meted out to the Irish people by a heartless and venom blinded tory government. Let them say boldly, now, if the Irish have
jnot displayed all the forbearance that human
nature is capable of in their passive resistance to such inhuman laws as those to which the British government would force them to submit.
‘““There is no law, human or divine, that compels a nation to passively accept annihi- lation, and if these British tories are per- mitted to heap additional wrongs on the Irish people, despair will nerve the Trish to active resistance and wild retaliation. The very deer will turn on their pursuers when driven to bay, and if nothing will satisfy the British
government but the destruction of the Irish | people, Ireland will be justified before God and man in selling her life at the heaviest,
price she can obtain, and in using every
weapon the ingenuity of man can place within |
her reach.
‘lL ask the justice and freedom loving peo- ple of America to prevent this terrible con- summation of British crime and misgovern- ment. Let the condemnation of the British government's policy in Ireland ring from every community on this continent. I ask the honest and fearless press of America to sustain the efforts of Mr. Parnell and Mr. Gladstone to inaugurate a policy of justice and liberty, in opposition to the tyranny of Lord Salisbury.
I appeal most forcibly to the Irish race in |
America to rouse themselves to immediate action. In an especial manner | address myself to those of our blood whom God has blessed with the abundance to come forward to share in the bardens aud sacrifices of their people. No rank or power can justify any man in refusing to identify himself with the race to which he belongs, and the man who thus shirks his duty deserves the contempt of his fellowmen.” :
‘* With the fullest confidence in their never failing fidelity to Ireland, I call again upon the masses of the Irisa race in America to repeat the splendid generosity they have so often extended towards their struggling brethern in Ireland. Mr. Parnel) says the immediate future will be atime of suffering for the Irish people. With God's help the time will not be long; but long or short, no Irishman must perish for want of Irish- American support, and no Irish-American is so poor that by self sacrifice he cannot con- tribute his mite to the Irish cause.”
‘“*T advise the officers of the League to make redoubled efforts to increase its membership. Every man of Irish blood in the United States and Canada should be enrolled in the league wherever it is possible; and steps should be taken to recognize disbanded branches and establish new ones. To those of our people living on farms too remote from each other to form branches of the league, I will say that Rev. Dr. O’Rielly, Detriot, Mich., will receive their subscriptions, be they great or small, and promptly acknowledge the same in the public press. They have every opportunity, therefore, to share in Ireland's struggle. and should lose no time in sending in their names and such contri! ntions as their means will permit.
‘Tn this crisis I also earnestly ask the as- sistance and support of the lrish-American — for the Irish National League. Let us
ave one grand, effective organization, with one heart and one voice, pledged to sustain Mr. Parnell and his Irish associates with ail our strength and influence in their efforts to recover the legislative independence of Ire- land, aided by Mr. Gladstone and the British democracy, who strive to replace Sa opposi- tion with the broad principles of human liberty and international justice.”

' | Gencral Grant Refuses Wine
Let us take a few facts: When traveling in | India he was surrounded with social customs, to disregard which required the strongest will and the finmest purpose. Nota few foreign jresidents in the East are hard drinkers. | There were not hours enough im the day fcr Grant to aceept the invitations he received. To be courteous, he not infrequently accepted invitations to half a dozen tiffins on the same day, at each one of which he would remain a few moments, until the last one had been reached. At all there gatherings, wine and liquors were freely used. He became so tho- roughly disgusted with the custom that, on his return to his hotel, he said to his wife : ** Julia, I do not intend to take another glass of wine to please anybody.” This was in 1878, and from that time forward to Mount McGregor, his temperance habits were above suspicion.
From Calcutta he went to Burmah. The reception committee furnished large baskets of champagne and liquors. These were sub- ject to Grant’s orders, To the disappoint- ‘ment and disgust of the cominittee, the {baskets were not opened. Surprise was ex- tyre ; but Grant simply said: ‘‘ Gentlemen,
do not wisl anything to drink,” and the baskets were returned unopened to Calcutta, 1 received accounts of this incident from Gen. Litchfield, late Consul-General to India, and jfrom Mrs, Grant, | After Grant reached California, his old friends were the witnessess of this new proof of his personal decision. While in the city of Mexico his enthusiastic admirers invited him jto what is called ‘‘a wine dinner.” Bishop | Harris was present, and he informed me that Gen. Grant deliberately turned his glass up- side down.—The Rev. Dr. John P. Newman, in The American Magazine.

Wade Hampton's Belief in Prayer.
The love and admiration in which he is held by the people of South Carolina are il- lustrated in an incident related by General Hampton when he was recovering from his sickness.
“T am certain,” he said, “that my life was saved by the fervent papers of the people of South Carolina. I was at the point of death and had lost all interest in life, when I re- ceived a letter from an old Methodist mini- ster, a friend, telling me of the deep and de- voted petitions put up for my restoration to health by the Methodist Conference then in ‘session at Newberry. The letter ‘closed by | begging me to exercise my will to live in re- sponse to the supplications of the people of |the whole State, who were praying for me night and day in every household. When I ‘heard the letter read I promised my sister \that I would heed the kind, loving words of the man of (iod, and arouse my will to live. | That night I fell into a deep sleep and dream- ed most vividly that I was in a spacious room ‘in which I was moved to all parts of the State, sothat I met my assembled friends
everywhere. I remember most distinctly of
jall, old Beaufort, where I had last been. I was ,in immense assemblages,and as I looked down upon them a grave personage approached me and touched me on the shoulder and said to me; ‘These people are praying for you. ; Live ! Live!! Live!!!’ I never realized /anything like it before. It seemed a_ vision. ‘I woke the next morning feeling the life- blood creeping through my veins, and I told my family that the crisis was passed and that I should get better."--Z. L. White, in the American Magazne.

Encourage Men to Own Homes.
A man’s first duties are to his family jand himself. The State should not make those primary duties more difficult by tax- ‘ing any of the necessaries of life. The ‘necessity for the major portion of the enormous revenue needed by government arise from vice and folly in their various forms. The causes of taxation should bear the burden of taxation. All public revenues should be drawn from indirect taxes upon conduct and conditions more or less inimical itu the general welfare. Luxuries, vice, follies, excessive wealth, and all conduct, either of citizens or foreigners, which tends to generate evil and injustice, should be ‘taxed as far as practicable.
Such a system of taxation would necessarily have a cor- relative efiect, viz., the encouragement of virtuous acts by freeing them from public burdens.
Instead of a policy which would make it impossible for any individual to ever be- come the absolute «wner of a homestead— that would make mankind more nomadic and Jessen their interest in and affection for their homes—the State should en- courage every man to get a piece of ground and a home of hisown. To this end, all homesteads to a limited amount of value, should be exempt both from taxation and from attachmeut of debt. The tendency of such a measure would be silently to prevent and cure the evil of a monoply of land by a comparatively few, as well as the evil of a tenant population with little interest in the soil upor: which their toil and lives are spent.-— John Philip Phillips, in the American Magazine.
naregiemsendeittiisailittiancatitiatpaes Prices of Farm Products.
The past year was remarkable for the ex- tremely low prices of farm products through- out the civilized world. The extent of the general decline may be best measured by a comparison between last year's prices and those previously prevailing in Great Britain, the mother country forming a common mar- ket for other countries which have a surplus for export. It is stated officially that as com- pared with the average aesties ot forty years wheat had declined in England 38} per cent. ; oats, 16 per cent.; barley, 194 per cent. ; butter, 29 per cent. ; beef, 12 per cent. ; pork, 174 per cent. ; potatoes, 25 per cent. and wool, 43 per cent.
Many causes have contributed ‘to this de- cline, chief among which are the increased facilities for transportation, low freight rates, and the unexampled productive capacity of the western states of America, and other new fields in Asia and Australia opened up within @ generation past. This extraordinary de- cline in prices has had a most disastrous effect upon the farming interests of Great Britain and Ireland, and involve the necessity of the reduction of rents. It has, also, been materially injurious to countries like Canada, which depend upon the British market for the sale of surplus cereal, vegetable and
