Col. John O'Mahonv.

A correspondent OF the Boston Common
,cealth furnishes the following description of
the leader of the Fenian movement in Ameri-
ca: ne @
He is tall, straight man, filll-chested and
broad-shouldered, "cleanly built" without SUI
perhuous flesh, but with that full develop
ment OF sinew which in other days enabled
him to contend successfully in trials of strea 9Th
with the athletes of his own country.
and which now enables him to endure labors
which would exhaust ordinary men O,Ma-
hony's face is not a telltale one; the expres-
sion is that OF digniied reticence; he speaks
less than he thinks; perfect self possession Is
stamped upon every feature; evidently his
opinions are convictions, and his self-pos-
session arises from his entire reliance upon
himself; he has that "air' which hioh breed
ing only gives, sufficiently marked to attract
and enchain attention. In truth, he looks
like man able to move others to his purpose
less by demonstrations Of power than by the
mere force OF personal character and position.
The" Head Centre" belongs to family which
has not lacked experience in the dangers and
suiferings incident to revolutions. The Irish
estates to which by birth he was entitled, were
very considerably diminished by the part tax
IN by his family in the great rising Of 1905
In 1S4S OMahony commanded the only or
ganized force which took the field against the
British soldiery. The failure of the great at
tempt drove OMahoney from his native land.
With his friend Stephens, now the Chief Ex-
ecutive," he fought behind the barricades of
Paris, in the midst of that revolution which
drove Louis Philippe from France and estab-
ished the French republic. subsequently he
sought refuge in America, and when the civil
war began he entered the United States SER
vice and helped to make the old flag triumph
ant.
OMahony is an accomplished scholar. He
speaks several modern languages with ease and
elegance, and reads the classics with such
facility as to make the great literary master
pieces OF Greece and Rome less objects of
study than sources of refined pleasure. he
has, by his History of Ireland and other
works of lesser note, mace valuable contribu-
tions TO our English literature. He has tho
roughly mastered the native language of his
countrymen, and is accounted one OF the best,
If not the very best, Gaelic scholar in Christ
endom."

We find here the same extremes os ,,,u.....
and suffering, ofvice and crime that ave f,r,rS
IN all large cities. But the population Il 40
diffused, tnat it is easy to apply hyeienic rre-
cautions when there is danger of an epidemic.
and therefore we have little fear of cholera.
Philadelphia has splendid war record
With an open hand she gave aid, comfort and
cheer to the Union soldiers as they passed to
and from the scenes of strife; and there is no
considerable community north or east Of US.
in which there are not some who remember
with grateful hearts the ladies of the Quaker
city. 1rf. slt
a lady at my elbow, Portland born, says 81
thanK the Press for the noble stand it has ta-
Ken on the great questions of the day. Its ed
'torials come to us like the healthful breezes
'nat sweep through the pines other grand for
ests." Please consider yourself thanked Mr.
Editor, and keep on winning golden opinions
nom patriotic men and women eyerywhere.
The Fenian excitement is very great here
as it is in all the large cities. The demonstrs.
tion last night in front of Independence Hal,
was aSbig thing" on the sidewalk. Spread
eagle Train made one of his highfalutin
speeches. Ever since the Englishmen wouldn't
let him establish horse railroads In their cities
he has been down on the Bulls. Hear himi
England is dying; let her die. Sepoys to the
right OF her, Jamaica revolutionists to the left
OF her, New Zealand in front of her, and the
Fenian Brotherhood all around herr
Among the other speakers was John O,Ma-
honey, who was announced to the meeting as
the authorized agent in the United States
OF the President of the Irish Republic He
said there are now in Ireland 100000 men reg
ularly organized into companies and reei-
ments, with all the necessary officers; all thew
now need is arms and ammunition; serious
deficiency, itmust be admitted, If there Is to
be any lighting. Money is wanted to supply
this deficiency. If the Irish in America would
give all their grog-money to the Fenian Bro
therhood, it would greatly relieve the police
courts and various kinds OF prisons in our cit
les, If it did not carry reliefto their friends in
the green Isle. Our advice TO Patrick Is sstop
your grog and invest in Fenian Bonds"
