The following correspondence is publish- ed :-— “ House or ComMONS, LONDON, Merch 23, 1887. Hon. JOHN FITZGERALD, Lincon, Neb:-
“The Coercion Bill proposed to-night in the House of Commons is the eighty-seventh since the Actof Union eighty-seven years ago. It is also the most stringent, tyrannical, and uncalled for by the state of affairsin Ireland. Never be- fore has a Coercion Bill been proposed when crime was s0 rapidly decreasing, as compared with previous years. The measure is aimed against all open agitation, and appears to be ex- pressely designed for driving discontent beneath the surface, It .places ail public epeakers, writers and conductors of newspapers absolutely at the mercy of Stipendiary Magistrates holding their office at the pleasure of the crown. It con- demns the Irish speaking peasant of rack-rented Kerry to the tender mercies of a packed jury of Orangemen or Landlords, or to a jury of English- men at the Old Bailey in London. The Liberal Pariy, headed by Gladstone, stand as one man against this iniquitous measure, and wiil fight shoulder to shoulder with us, in opposing it to the last. It seems impossible to believe that even the present House of Commons;will continue to follow the Tory Governmeat in their mad course, and good judges consider the measure will break and ruin the cabinet. We must, however,prepare for the worst,and I confidentally appeal to the American people for that sympathy and support which they have never withheid from a _ people struggling for liberty.
PARNELL.”
Mr. Fitzgerald’s reply :-—-
** LINCOLN, Neb., March 29, 1886.
CHARLES 8. PARNELL, House of Commons, London.
** Cable received. League will redouble efforts. Ireland secure of American sympathy and sup- portiu the coming crisis. Nebraska Lewislature to-day by unanimous vote passed resolutions sympathizing with Ireland and condemnihg ‘Tory policy of coercion. ' “Thisand similar manifestations throughout | this free country give the lie to slanders of | English press that true Americans do not sym: | pathize with Ireland. This great liberiy-loving | people of the United States are entirely in| sympathy with Ireland’s struggle for Home! tule,
JOHN FITZGERALD, President I, N. L. A.”
The following resolutions passed through both houses of the Nebraska legislature by & unanimous vote, and were immediately cabled to Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Parnell over the signatures of the President of ‘the Senate and the speaker of the House of Representatives :
W uEREAS, The Government of Great Britain, in defiance of the wishes of the Irish people, and of the express will of the peopies of Wales and Scot- land aud of ine democracy of England, deny the irish people a responsible governmenhi, and now threatens them with the infliction of laws that will trample on every vestige of personal and constitutional liberty and must only end in blood- shed, if uot in the ruin of the [rish people; and Wuereas, The Irish people have always been steadfast an faithful friends of American liberty, | fizhting for its achievement and dying for its preservation, and so bound up with us by ties of blood and honorable memories that our hearts are greatly moved hy their noble struggle for human freedom }
Resolyed, That we condemn the Irish policy of Lord Salisbury and his cabinet as at variance with every principle of constitutional law and justice, as inhuman in conception and tendihg not only toinjure the people of Ireland, but to imperil the safety of the British empire and to estrange the good will and friendship of the American people who can never sanction a policy that conflicts with justice and liberty.
Resolved, That we extend to Mr. Parnell and his co-laborers, and to the Irish nation our heart- felt sympathy and encouragement to continue their allant struggle under the wgis of a meek and responsible government, Ireland shall once more enjoy peace and happiness. Resoived, That we honor the noble stand taken by Mr. Giadstone and the enlightened democracy ot Great Britain, and express our confidence that the triumph of their principles of justice and liberty to Tretand wiil prevail over the barbarous and unrighteous pow of the tory government. That the speaker be instructed to cable a copy of these resolutions to the Hon. Charles Stewert' Parnell and Hon. W, E. Gladstone, House of | Commons, London.

The Trot at Fortune.
The postponed trot at Fortune took place | on Thursday, 3lst ult. There was a large number of sporting men of the vicinity in! attendance. Three horses started: Fortune | Queen, owned by Wm. R. Dingwall, Fortune Girl, owned by Wm. H. Webster, and Island hoy, awned by D. McInnis,
In the first heat the horses got a fair start, but inside of the first quarter mile the Fortune | Queen showed that she was master of the situation, but before she arrived at the wire she was closely followed by the Fortune Girl. Second heat. In the lead off the harses gat a good start. The three horses trotted for all they were warth, but the superior speed and enduring wind of the Fortune Queen, bore her in handsomely fifty yards ahead, fellowed by ' the Fortune Girl, who shows pluck and good | endurance.
In the third heat the pluck of the Fortune
Girl was displayed by her keeping neck and
neck to the Queen, but she was about fifty
yards behind a* the end of the race.
The race resulted as follows: Fortune
Queen, red mare, owned by W R_ Dingwall,
Ist; Fortune Girl, owned by W H Webster,
2ud; Island Boy, owned by Capt McInnis,
3rd.
The race was one of the most successful ever
held on Fortune ice, and all the spectators left with a good impression of all the horses that took part in the race.
——>>-2- A Busy Pastor.
The Detriot Free Press says: ‘‘ Rev. Edward Judson, D. D., a sonof Rev. Adoniram Judson, the noted pioneer missionary, is a veritable chip of theold block. Five years ago he left a large and fashionable church and large salary at Orange, N. J., to labor as a missionary among the poor of New York. He preached on the streets for along while, and then took charge of the Bereau Baptist Church, corner of Downing and Ledford streets, whose membership has been increased to 700 from 100. It is a hive of religious activity. It supports seven homes for aged people, provides employment for indigent members, and has a tract reprository; its first tract being written by Channcey M. Depew. Allthe tracts are illustrated. A hundred sirls are taught sewing school. It has also a resh-air fund, a flower missson and an ice water fountain. Several missionaries are kept at work among the poor. Mr. Judson will celebrate the centennial birthday of his father in 1888 by erecting a memorial church. To pay for it he is soliciting a dime from each Baptist in the entire world.”

the Only One He Has. ‘AN INDIAN AGENT'S INGENUOUS EXCUSE FOK SHOOTING A MAN IN SELF-DEFENCE. The Indian Commissioner at Washington has received the following letter from In- dian Agent E. C. Osborne, at the Ponca Pawnee and Otoe Agency, Indian Terri- tory, under date of April 2: ‘*With a pro- found sense of regret 1 have to report that in discharging, yesterday, Z. M. Smith, a farmer at the Otoe agency, for general bad conduct upor the agency, but chiefly be- cause of his ungovernable temper, which was continually being turned loose upon both employes and Indians, I had to kill him in self-defence. He had repeatedly threatened to kill the clerk in charge, Mr. Young. who reported his conduct and asked that he be discharged. I went to Otoe to explain to him my reasons for dis- charging him, to hear his defence if he hed any, to pay him his salary for the past quarter, and to dismiss him. While very quietly and calmly discharging the duty he made a violent attack upon the clerk in charge, whom he wounded in the arm and doubtiess thought he had killed, and then turned upon Mr. Justice, the agency black- smith, and myself, with a cocked and levelled revolver and with the manner of a maniac, when I shot him dead. I am thoroughly convinced that I saved three lives in taking his, and when it is consid- ered that one of these three was my own, and the only one [ have, I trust I may be exonerated.”
Anti-Coercion.
A POWERFUL APPEAL FROM GLADSTONE,
On the 9th inst. Gladstone issued to the & ma- jority of whom are enthusiastic followers of his, the following letter which amounts to a manifesto: ‘‘I cannot refrain from calling your attention to the meeting which is to be held in Hyde Park next Monday, and to which, I understand, tens of thousands of the workingmen of London intend generously to devote their holiday. If ever there was a time when it was to the interest of the Hng- lish workingman to bethink himself this is the time. It is the first time when a coercion bill, if paased, is to be passed by England's vote alone against the voices of Scotland, Ireland and Wales. It is the first time when such a bill will have been passed under the
‘sanction of the house-holders at large, who
were never enfranchised before the last elec- tion in 1835 and 1886. It is first time coer- cion has been proposed without any attempt by the ministry to show what we know they
‘cannot show—a state of exceptional and flag-
rant or growing crime. If England is to coerce Ireland * crime, Ireland can apply that relatively to en she has less crime than England. Inmy opinion the re- jection of the bill is even more needed by Eng- land than by Ireland. For Ireland it is a question of snffering, and she knows how to suffer; for England it isa question of shame
-and dishonor, and to cast away shame and
dishonor is the first business of a great mna- tion. In 1876 a meeting of London working- men first gave effectual force to the movement for Bulgaria which brought about the elec- tion of 1880. May the meeting of Monday next ring the death knell of the worst, the most insulting and most causeless coercion bill ever submitted to parliament.”

The Smaliness of the World.
I was one day in London, walking down the Strand, while a gentleman who was ac- companying me was relating tome a some. what startling incident in which he had been an actor.
He and a friend, while bathing in the Amazon river, narrowly escaped being des. troyed by a huge shark, which suddenly join-
‘ed their company, and abruptly terminated | their aquatic gambols in the tropical stream, |My friend related the details of their escape,
and extolled the bravery of his companion on that occasion, Then, naturally, he expressed his regret at the unlikelihood of their ever
| meeting again; and while proving in the most
conclusive way that it was quite impossible they ever should do so, he suddenly exclaim. And
shaking hands vigorously, stood these two men, neither of whom expected to see the other again !—Rose Eytinge, in the American Magazine.
