‘ould net triumph.

As the first man in the nation, the lile of Garfield was naturally very important to the vation. But it is precions to the world, because the recor of it is pure. Garfield’s triumph was not obtained by dishonorable means. In the midst of corrupt politicians, he was not corrupt. Surrounded by venal oflicials, he was not yenal. This is his distiactive merit. Mauy of his coxapetitors were men pos- sesced of natural abilities ‘uliy as great as his ; few of them are place: in circumstau- ces se adverse. Yet he now receives the willing homage of all. He succeeded because his talents were perseveringly within the wholesome: influences of truth and honesty. His is an example of the superior power of goodness. A dastardly assassin shot him down in the midst of his useful career; butit was beyond the power of the assassin to dim the Inustre of his glorious character. 2) REPOS! CAE The Bx-Leader of the Opposition.

useu

Tux Hon. Alexander McKenzie, late Leader of the Oppositieu, is one of three, fy whose favor the mertgxgo escuring the Casada Pacific Railway Geld Bonds, hans been made. From this fact some persons may imagiue that Mr. McKeuzie is about withdrawing his allegience from his old party allies and tirowing in his lot with the present Government on its Railway, if uot on its Trade, policy. After the very shabby way way in which he was deprived of the lvadership, little wender if the old party veteran should feel himself a slighted and illused map. Tbe manuer ot his taking off was such a painful exhibition of ‘* man’s inhumanity te man,” that many of his friends still re- fuse to either ecdorse the new or repud- inte the old ieadership. _ The citcam- stances connected with the uew leader assuming party control, «re not forgotten. At Ottawa, a caucus was held by a score er two of individuals—who in the days of Mr. McKenzie’s presperity had fol- lowed him with the utmost subservieucy— to sentence him to political execution, fer no other apparent rexson than that he had lost the battle of 78. Mr. McKenzie, though invited, did not attend ihat caucus. He was, neverheless, duly exe- cuted, and a successor proclaimed Could party ingratitude do more? No wonder, we say, if the party views of the ex-leader should be found undergoing considerable change un:‘er the treatment he has received at the hands of his quondam friends. But then we must not forget that he is much more likely to bear the wrongs that have been done him by his former followers with a spirit of manly fortitude aud self-sacrifice, than to turn his back upon the great Grit party, of which he was so many years the faithful leader.

‘* They staad aloof, the scars remaining,

Like cliffs which have dven rent asunder;

A dreary sea now flows between,

Bat neither heat, nor frost, nor thunder,

&hall wholly do away, | ween,

The marke of that whici: once hath been.”

THE or

LAND PAR-

SECESSION NOT TO BE TOLERATED LEAGUE CONVENTION —- RESUME

NELL’S SPEECH.

One thousand delegates attended the opening of the Natiopal Convention at Dublin on the 15th inst. Twenty one mem bers of Parliament were present. Parnell, amid the greatest enthusiasm, tovk the chair. Sexton read a number of telegrams, particularly from the American branch of the Lescue, exhorting the delegates never to rest until lendlordship was abolished, not to psy rent, to hold back their harvest,

etc., ete. Parnell, in opening ~ his speech, referred to the thinning of their ranks by coereion§ since last

tivention. Ho said for every

ten imprisoned a hundred would join the League. He recapitulated the resolutions, and said the question of self-government was most important. He had always con- sidered it could never be settled as long as questions in regard to rent remained in dis- pute. The Land Act left the rent question a continual source of discontent and strife between different classes in Ireland. He had no doubt this was designedly so ar- ranged by the British Government. Par- neil warned the farmers not to trust the Land Act. It was designed to break the League. Nobody could appeal to the Land Court till the test cases prepared by the Leacue had been submitted. They should press forward te the abolition of landlordism and legislative independence. He advised farmers to borrow money under the Land Act, so 28 give work to Ilsborers, and in- vited laborers to join the land league. He promised himself to head the laborers’ movements if the farmers did not give them fair play. He reasserted fair rent would be the value ef the nnd in a state of nature before it was iinproved by the tenant or any of his predecessors. Jrishmen should en- conrage home manufectures, even if they had to pay dearer then for foreign goods. Things not producible in lreland should be boughtin America. English goods should not be be bought in any event.

Glory and Guano.

Some years ago an articls entitled ‘*Who Ate Roger Williams ?” weat the rounda of the newspapers in this country. It related how an apple tree was planted over the grave of Roge? Williams, and that as a por- tion of that here’s mouldering remains fed the apples, which were subsequently de- voured by human beings,those who partook of the fruit must also have partaken of that which partly helped to give it ‘susten- ance. Akin te this idea is that embodied in the report, which comes to us through London, that three hundred tons of human bones—relics of the brave defenders of Plevna—were shipped at Constantinople and have jyst been unpacked at Dover, to ihe order of a firm manufacturing manure. The eargo is said to contain complete limbs, and it is intimated that even skulls, to which the hair adheres,are present. What ghastly meckery is this, that the remairs of slaughtered heroes should be used to fructify their soil, while those heroes’ blood shewld saturate the foreign fields on which they fell! What a horribly grotesque cor- trast betweon the utililarian arts of peace and the thunder and lightning of the battle ground where soldiers are baptized with fire and blood! What a transmigra- tion—from an alcedama to a potato-field ! How cruel an epigram-—to die for one’s evuntry and then pass into its crops; to fall covered with glory and then to be used as asubstitute for guano! Well might the anticipative Shakespeare exclaim :—

Imperial Caesar, dead and turaed to clay,

Might stop a hole to keep the wind away !

Murrey Harbor Notes.

On the 6th inat., two interrsting Mission- ary Meetings were held, when addresses were delivered by the Rev’s Mr. Defoe and Fredrea, and the resident minister. The specches were appreciated, and a much larger sum than that of the previous year contributed to the Bible Christian Mission ary Fend.

On the 13th inst., we recsived a visit from Mr, E. Lane, of New Perth, to intro- duee tothe inhabitants of this neigh or- hood, a new Potato Digger. It was tried in the presence of many of our well-to-do farmere, and they seeined well pleav2d with it.

The harvest is well oa the way. Some few have finished,

With reference to the land slip near Elm, in Canton Glarus, Switzerland, which oc- curred a few days ago, it is feared that the list of victims must include forty men of neighboring villages, whe came to aid when the first land slip oceurred at six e’clock in

the evening, and before the village was overwhelmed by the second slip, which took ‘place at midnight. The river on which | Elm is situated has becn turned into a Jake acd it is feared that the valley below will | be ilooced., As the place is much frequent e! by s'rangers this season it is feared that S016. wuss have p' rished. A despaich from Geneva to the London ‘“‘ Stag +. says;— ‘A fresh land slip at Elm being feared the rescuers are obliged to proce with the greatest caution.”

Begging in Europe cannot be the reward- less undertaking generally supposed. It is stated that a Russian officia! not long since laid a wager that he could make moré money by begging than by attending to his official duties. Of 130 persons he address- ed, soliciting charity, he was refused by 42, and early in the day had received alms amounting to more than his salary for two duys.

The National Arbitration League of Washington, D. C., has issued aeall fora world’s conference in that city in 1885, to consider man’s moral and social relations, and to further the organization of a family of nations for the education of the people on a peace footing, ‘‘so that it would be- come practicable by the dawn ef the twen- tieth century to, disband all armies and navies ever the whole earth.”

Professor Vennor, the weather prophet, arrived in Philadelphia from Washington on Saturday. Before leaving the latter place he explained why his predictions of frost and all sorts of cold weather horrors had failed. He attributes it to the dura- tion of the heated term. tainly a very plausible explanation,” says the Philadelphia Times, ‘‘ and if Vennor is at all correct in his statements, it is pretty safe to say that so long as the heated term continues we are not likely to have frost. This kind ef weather prophecy is what the people of this country have been waiting many years for. Itis a great satisfaction to have it at last.”

Nothing was signed at the meeting of Emperors, but nevertheless solemn engage- ments have been contracted. The Czar has promised that if ever Germany finds herself desgzed into a war Russia will maintain the suneé attitude as she did in 1870. After the Emperer William had replied to his im- perial visitor’s greeting the conversation fell on the Nihilists. The Emperor William advised his grand nephew to have recourse to the same means ef combatting the evil as he himself had adopted since Nobiling’s attempt—that is, war to the knife. In the year which followed the adoption of this policy,” said he, ‘‘ the German law courts passed sentence. en 3,000 socialists. New, however, the eases of socialism are much Jess frequent.” This information was given me by a person attached to the Czar’s suite.

The Little Rock (Ark.) Gazette says :— *\ A private despatch received from Ozark,

Casey, who murdered Burgess James, a wealthy planter in Yell connty, in 1879, Casey was tried, found guilty and sentenc- edto be hung at Ozark on December 18, 1880. He succeede:! in getting a new trial, pending which he, in company with two accomplices, named Polk and Helphrey, escaped from the jail at Ozark some two months since, being aided by one of the prison guards. After gaining their liberty the three murderers separated. Casey, it appears, went to Cafroll county, represent- ing himself asa Methodist preacher. He offciated at two or ‘three ‘camp meetings, and it is said that several persons were con- verted through his ministrations. In fact his faute as pulpit orator drew crewds and led to his apprehens.on, as persons living in adjacent counties, 2nd who knew him, were attracted by reports of his wonderful eloquence.”

The action of the British Consul at New Orleans in demanding troops for the protec- tion of British vessels would seem to indi- cite that there is more danger from the turbulent strikers than the telegrams would lead us to suspect. It is well known from past experience that occurrences which in the North would cause no disturbance to ordinary business often excite the fiery Southern mind to grave acts of violence. Louisiana, moreover, has not the reputa tion of containing a working class“ of the most quiet and harmless disposition in moments of unusual excitement. Life is vot, itis true, so cheap there as it once was, when the leaders of the people set them the example of blood-thirstiness, but there is still a spirit of . lawless defiance wtich, thoushit may sleep at ordinary tirzes, provecation or opportunity might arouse with terrible consequences, It is to

be hoped, however, that matters will not come to that pass in the present instance.
