THE IRISH BOMBS.


The Continental Bank Note Company of this
city, have just completed the engraving of the
bonds by which the Fenian Brotherhood pro-
poses to raise funds in aid of the organized
Irish people ''at home,n whom the world re-
conize by the cognomen of l. r. f., and who
are thus to be assisted by their American
friends in the approaching attempt to win for
their country au Independent existence and Il
republican government.
THE PRELIMINARIES-COI ROBERTS.
The Fenian Brotherhood have long consider
ed this step, but did not adopt the measure,
however, until the home affairs called for it
and the material resources at command seemed
to Justify the appeal to those who favored
the principle at stake. About two months ago
the policy was finally decided upon by the
governing council, who entrusted all their
negotiations to their President, Colonel Will
liam r. Roberts, wholesale merchant Of this
city, who sustains in business circles the re-
putation of being able and responsible as a
tinancier and business man. Before entering
upon the work the best legal advice in the
country was had and course laid out which
enables the parties concerned to keep inside all
provisions of national and International codes
and committees. An exposition OF Fenian
power satisfied the Bank Note Company that
all Was in good faith aud on fair way to sue
cess; hence they at once assumed the response.
