Fathcr -Nathew'Y EiuaerM The funer-
al OF the Rev. Father Mathew, the apostle
of temperance, took place in Cork on The
18th ult., md was, perhaps, the most re-
markable one ever witnessed in tha. city.
The cortege was more than three miles
long and took an hour and half 10 pass
any particular point. 1t was attended by
the corporation and city officers, in mourn
ing, by several dignitaries and clergvmen
of the Established Church, as well as by
a vast number of Roman Catholic clergy,
with their bishop at their head, and all the
Roman Catholic and a great many of the
Protestant gentry of the surrounding couu-
try. 1t was estimated that not fewer than
$4,000 people were assembled in and
around the cemetery on the occasion, and
the deepest sympathy was expressed by
the greatest number of those present, many
OF them shedding tears. The Roman
Catholic Bishop and seventy priests ofiici-
ated at the obsequies IN the Catholic
Church OF the Holy Trinity.

II Singular FdScination-An English
paper has the following:
One Of the most singular instances in
connection with material things, exists in
the case OF young man who, not very
long ago, visited large iron mandatory.
He stood opposite large hammer and
watched with great interest its perfectly
regular strokes. At frs. it was beating
immense Jumps of crimson metal into thin
black sheets, but the supply becoming ex-
haustcd, at length il only descended up
on the no,;ske! anvil. Still the young
man gazed intently on lis motion; then he
followed It's strokes with corresponding
motion of his head then his left arm
moved 10 the same time; and finally he
deliberately placed his fist upon the anvil,
and in a second il was smilten 10 ieIlv.
The only explanation he could afford was
that lie felt an impulse to do it--lhat he
knew he should be disabled-lnat he saw
al, The consequences in misty kind OF
manner, but that he still felt the power
within above reason and sense-a morbid
impulse, in fact, TO which he Succumbed,
and by which he los, good right hand.

The OLD SLAVE TRADE.-As much and as severe.
ly as Northern men may inveigh against slavery and
the slave trade and denounce the sins and inquitcs
of the South, they have had quite as much-proba-
bly, more-to do with such Infamous business, as
they call it, as the people of the South. The fol-
lowing extract from exchange will exhibit the in.
terest they felt in niggers and niger trading not
great while ago. and the fact, ALSO that many of the
wealthiest persons at the North their wealth to
traffic in African slaves:
"From 1903 to 1907 there were imported into the
little town of Bristol Rhode Island-a seaport that
did not contain population of 2,000-more than
100 slaves annually. The whole number imported
within the period was 3,9l4, all from the coasts of
Africa. During the same time there were brought
into Newport a town within twelve miles of Bristol,
in the same State, now the famous and attractive
watering place, 3,48S slaves. Providence, in the
same State, received 559. Hartfo' d, Connecticut,
$50, and Boston 100, in the same years. The slaves
brought into Rhode Island were but small portion
of the number her citizens taking from the
coast Of Africa directly to the West Indies and into
the ports of Southern States Ffty-nine slave ships
belonged at the time to the little State of Rhode Is
land Some of the largest fortunes which have de.
scended to her citizens created by this traffic
| and but few years ago there men in that
State, among the honored and wealthiest of the in
habitants, who had been active participants in the
trade, or owned the ships that carried the human
cargoes. One of her Senators in Congress, as late
1926 1898, commenced his life as a SLAYER be-
tween the coast of Africa and the West India Islands
and he had ships engaged in it till the trade was
| suppressed by law-if not afterwards also. He
died but few years ago, bequealhing fortune Of
millions to his children who at this day cassed
in the highest ranks of society,"
