Churchil) on Home Rule.

| Lord Randolph Churchill has written an- ‘other attack on Gladstone’s Home Rale policy. A citizen of Glasgow who de- scribes himself as a Liberal, recently sent Lord Randolph a letter asking his views on a proposition to unite the Liberals who op- pose Gladstone with the Tories on the basis ofasolemn pledge by thelatter that if in the next election they be returned to Parlis- ment with sufficient strength to undertake the conduct of the Government they will never propose Home Rule for Ireland, any peler which shall partake of the nature of

ome Rule, beyond the concession of local /Government, and resist all attempts to

The Policy of Secession,

The passage of the repeal resolution in the House of Assembly at an early hour yesterday (Sunday) morning, supported by every Grit member in the House, (with the solitary exception of Mr. Pipes) is a fitting finale to the career of the present legisla- ture. Burglara and murderers not. infre- quently seek to destroy by fire the scenes of their crimes in order thereby to destroy the evidence of their guilt. it is witha similar motive that the present local gov- ernment, after the most inglorious career that ever disgraced a government, propose to convulse, and if possible dismember the country in which they find thenselves so thoroughly discredited. After four years of power they are able to point to no one act that reflects the elightest credit on them. Nota mile—not even a half mile— of railway has been constructed. The province saddled with a bonded deht of about a million dollars, provincial property worth miilions of dollars . traiiorously jiven away, solemn pledges regarding the iegisla- tive council fiagrantly broken, a valuable institution of learning closed, and a hu- mane institution ruined in a struggle to maintain the spoils system, a legislature corrupted in the most profligate manner, and the laws of the province generally mutilated, and the administration of the government generally degraded,—theso are all they have to show the people as the results of their four years of government. It is no wonder, therefore, that they seek to cover their retreat from the legislative halis by applying the torch of the incen- diary to the constisution of their country. It would have been strangely inappropriate for them to have closed their career of idiccy and impishness in any other way.— Halifax Herald, May 10.

The Chicago Outrage.

The cruelty of an indiscriminate dyna- mite attack upon the police, will at once excite public attention. The officers are acting on behalf of the community. They are appointed to preserve the peace. They are under military discipline, and are taught to obey without question, the orders they receive. While acting in this capacity, they are the representatives of the whole people. Any attack upon them, is an offence to everybody, who is responsible for their official existence. To single out for murder a few officers who are in the dis- charge of their duty isa wanton and mani- acle crime. These oflicers presumably, are men of family and far more respectable and useful members of society than any of the ruffians engaged in the attack upon them. To slay them Tuesday, because some other officers Monday, defended themselves against rioters in another part of the city, is to exhibit a degree of madness that we had not believed even the Anarchists to be capable of. We hope and believe the mur- der of the police officers last night, will in- stantly result in a consolidation of public opinion in favor of upholding the law and punishing those that violate it. There ought to be a public meeting called and such an expression given to the feeling of honest men that no alien assassins can re- main in doubt what side the power rests with in this contest.—Chicago Tribune.

A Sad Case of Death from Overwork.

An inquest was held in London, last week, upon the body of Jane Shaw, a girl of seventeen, who was employed in Margaret Browne's dressmaking establish- ment, in Keppel street. Evidence was adduced to show that owing to the pressure of work consequent upon the Drawing- room, which was held on the Oth, and Tuesday's function at the Colonial Exhibi- tion, the deceased, with a number of other girls, was working overtime for nearly every night during the past fortnight, and that Tuesday night, about 11 o'clock, she fell back in her chair and died immedi- ately. The girl, who presented a very delicate appearance, had been working for several days from 8 o’clock in the morning till near midnight, with short intermissions for meals. Heart disease was the cause of death, and the coroner, in directing a ver- dict from natural causes, told Mrs. Browne that she narrowly escaped being indicted for menslaughter. Before leaving the court she was served with a summons for infraction of the Factory Act, by keeping her employes at work during prohibiced honrs without notifying the inspector,

Profits of Stage-Robbing

During the past fourteen years 105 men /have been engaged in the business of stage- { robbing on Wells, Fargo & Company's Pacific Coast stage lines. That it is a business pursued with great diligence and skill is shown by the ‘‘ Robbers Record,” kept by the compaay for the use of its own detectives. It has in the last fourteen years cost Wells, Fargo & Company $927,- 726.55, or an average of {$66,266 per year. The robbers are charged with $415,312 58, rewards for arrests, etc., $73,451; attorneys,

2,367 ; expenses incurred in arresting end convicting robbers, $90,079; guards and special officers, $326,517. In this is not included the great amount stolen from the United States mails in the same robberies, and the still greater total of cash and valuables taken from the stege-csach pas- sengers, But taking the sum the robbers have secured from the Wells-Fargo boxes alone, $415,312, it is seen that the 106 men who have engaged in the business, have averaged $8,835, or $600 per year each. What the money and jewellery have ee the road-agents it is of course im- possible to even estimate.—San Francisco Chronicle.
