1t will no doubt be gratifying to those
who profess SO much love for the IrisE
Catholics of this Country to know wha
the leaders ana organs of these people
think of their American friends. In or:
der that they may thus be gratfed, we
have concluded to give them the follow
ing very complimentary notice, taken from
the "Boston Pilot" the organ of the
Irish Catholics of this Country. The
editor says:
If the party Of burglars so rampant
IN the city of Penn, and in the city oI
RlpVan Winkle, possessed as much brains
collectively as a Choctaw Senate, wher
by their council fire, they could hear tha!
their very existence as nation depends
on the Irish population of this country.
1t III becomes any American to taunt
Irishmen on the sore of bravery. Ma
tive courage is commodity that needs
yet TO be proved to exist. The flag Of
America is not yet seventy years old
and thrice the native sons of America
have deserted it. Therefore, we advise
these COWARDS, and SONS OF COW,
ARDS, to boast modestly. As shop
keepers, they are excellent; asmerchants,
enterprising and persevering as usurers,
they have no equals in the world but as
soldiers, every native ought to belong to

There. you cowardly Americans. what
do you think of yourselves now I? You
know that your every existence as a
nation depends on the Irish population OF
this country - and if you do not want
to insult your protectors, do not dare to
deny it. Three cheers for our Irish Re

Prevention is better than Cure, but it

Among the numerous medical prcpara-

however, which is no less powerful as a
preventive than as remedi al agent
We have reference to ..Rhodes' Fever

A Fine Set of Harness.

1--WE stepped into the shop of our friend
s. E. Beckman few days ago, where we
were shown set of Harness which he
had just finished for Mr.. R. Fowler. For
neatness of workmanship. we think they
surpass anything of the kind we have
seen in this part of Ohio; and we would
advise our people who want fine harness
to 60 to Beckman's, instead of sending
off to large towns with the hope of doing
better.

Later From Nicaragua - Defeat @
ScheleSinger Confined.


NEw-OLEANs. Tuesday, April 1886.
The steamer Charles Morgan has ar
rived at this port with San Juan dates to
the 10Th inst. The Orizaba arrived at
San Juan on the 10th. and landed 525
passengers. The defeat of Col. Schles-
niger is confirmed. Fifty men were killed
inthe engagement. The cause is attrib-
uted solely to the gross neglect of Schles-
niger. The remnant Of his party had
arrived at Rivas. Schlesinger had not ia
ken single usual precaution against sur
prise, although within the heart of the
enemy's country; and on the field his con-
duct was SO cowardy that Capt. Thorpe
was obliged to face him with pistols, and
threatened to blow his brains out; but it
was all useless--his cowardice had crea-
ted panic, and the men could not be rein
spirited. The ecursesyented against Schles-
niger by the returned force are loud and
deep. Capt. Thorpe is a passenger by
the Charles Morgan; he reports that
Walker is in good position and prosper
Gus, receiving large accessions to his force.
Another battle had taken place at Arco
polka, between fourteen of Walkers men
under Capt. Baldwin, and 900 Costa Ri
cans, in which the latter were defeated,
with a loss of 80 killed. Baldwin lost
two killed.

by patient perseverance, relying upon the per

business has enlarged, until, without the ordi-
nary means of travelling agents, his prepara-
tions are found upon the shelves Of almost all
druggists and medicine dealers in the United
States, Canada and West India Islands. Nor
is the result surprising, since his preparations
have been used by all classes, old and young
gentlemen and ladies of the highest intelli
gence in all parts of the country, testify to
their perfect character v hen thoroughly tested,
and no one can read his circular without being
convinced that th is indeed discovery wor-

the history of the world furnishes no parallel
to his success? His store on Market street, at

Kansns In the United States Senate!

of which were elected By the actual set
tiers Of the Territory, in opposition to
another body Of the same kind elected by
/ the Porder Rufians, of Missouri. have
Mcmorialized Congress for the admission
of Kansas as a State. Tkey also elected
two United States Senators, who are now
at Washington advocating the cause o.
their constituents.
which we have alluded come up in the
United States Senate few days ago
where it is well known the Locofoco party
have a majority and what did they do
Did they even give the petitioners a bear
ing? No-they laid the Memorial on
the table, thereby endorsing the bogus
Legislature. To write, speak. or print,
anything against slavery is felony unde,
the Statutes passed BY the Missouri
Ruffians, and the Locofoco Senate ol
the United State has endorsed the bloody
code.
The pet:ifogging and quibblng of that
consummate political demagosue, Stephen
A. Douglass, and his followers, will avail
the n nothing. The fimsy excuses they
urge for the rejection Of the Memorial will
not disguise their determination to make
a slave State of Kansas, even though they
are compelled to do it in direct opposition
to the known will of the citizens of the
Territory.
The N. Y. Tribune. in speaking of the
determination ofthe Administration party
to make slave State of Kansas, says
everything thus fal has been driven
with direct intent to that end. Every
stepin the proceedings, from the day of
the initiation of the Nebraska bill. max
ing two Territories out of what was only
designed for one, has been step in that
direction. Kansas has already been con
verted from a Free Territory into Slave
Territory, and the transition from that
into Slave State is less, than the trans
mutation already undergone 1t is too
late to say that the Northern men who
have engineered the surrender will fear to
consummate it, in the face of their prom
ises or pretenses to their followers that
Kansas would be sure to be Free State
~, way. l1u u7xcusr for the consumma-
ton is already on their lips. 1t is fore
shadowed in the Report on Kansas and
the speeches in the Senate and House.
When Kansas is finally set over, the
transfer deeds signed, and possession full
y given, the men who will have earned
an Immortality of infamy Ly the tlans-
action will coolly turn round to their in,
curing adherents, who once believed a
little in Freedom, and quite too much in
them, and say, Oh. .ithas all been done
by the Abolitionists, all done by Emigrant
Aid Societies, who provoked the Slavery
people to rush in and take possession.
Kansas is a Slave State, to be sure, but
it is not our fault. It is all to be attri-
buted to those same fanatical Abolitionists,
who have done all the mischief on the
Slavery question from the beginning
And these same yirtuous engineers of the
great surrender will expect the same con
fding followers to turn to at the next
subsequent election and work harder than
ever against the fanatical Abolitionists.
And in this expectation it is quite prob
able they will not be disappointed"
