THERE are sdndry chronic subjects occupy
ing the public attention now, and as faithful
Journalists we'must not neglect sny Of them.
What well conducted journal would dare to
go for two full days in succession before its
readers without dozen articles or items,

Fenianism is the most interesting ofall
current popular attractions. 1t has many.

across that little strip Of water called the At
