A Know-Nothing Howl.

We have received copy of I" a botting Sheet" pub
lished at Paris, ILL.,, with the following howl marked off
to attract attention We publish it. to show readers
how traitors squirm beneath the heels of the gallant
Sheridan. And another why publish it IS to
show our people that leaders of the old Nothing"
party are ensconsed behind the desks of the socaed
Democratic papers of the country. Wherever you turn
you will find the editors of those papers, with some
honorable exceptions from the Chicago Times to the
obscure rag from which the following snake poison
emanates actuated by the most bitter hatred towards
foreigners QrshmenD and only that they derive their
support from those duped foreigners, Qrshmen)
would hoist their proscriptve notices, such as "No
Irish need apply at the heads Of their newspapers
now, as they did in the years that gone.
Well if gallant Phil Sheridan is upstart foreigner"
all say is that he has written his deeply
in the American heart that all the poison wasted on
ink-soakers, from all the goose-quls that ever were
welded by traitor fingers eace it therefom

sevenyve thousand dollars to feed the Catholic poor Of

sevenyve thousand dollars to feed the Catholic poor of
ireland
We are thoroughly convinced that if the bishops and
priests of Ireland and America did their duty-tha is
what we think their duty is to feed the poor-ere need
not be a single death from hanger in Ireland
At the present rate of depletion of the population In
Ireland there will not be many congregations in Ireland
in twenty years, and to what use will the churches be
turned?
Save the people! Save the people
Let the Irshmen of America demand that their bro
theirs and sisters in Ireland must be fed Let them then
back up their demand by subscribing their money freely
There cannot be too much money subscribed, for
people always in want of food in Ireland and will be
until the foreign vulture is driven from their shores
Let there be general collection ordered in every do
cese in the land; and though the Fenians and their
friends have been subscribing money than they
could afford, we pledge them for a bumper at all the
churches in America We only wish that the bishops
and priests would say the word, and Ireland would
have navy on the in six months. Were they
determined for the liberation of Ireland as the Fenians
are, England could not hold ireland one year. No
WONDER then that the English Government seeks to
ciliate the bishops and priests.
Once more, then, we beg of the Church in America
to save our people in Ireland from starvation.

The Coming Convention of the F. B.

In few days, the order converting the annual
Congress of the f. B. will reach the Circles; and
have every for believing that the assembly will
be the largest and most harmonious gathering of
sentative lrshmen that has met in America Means
have been taken to notify every Circle in the Union
sufficient time to secure their prompt attendance We
believe the brave and liberal California Fenians have
been notified by telegraph time ago; and doubt
they will be we'll represented and will receive they
ought hearty and spontaneous -" cead mile fathe.
The hardy mountaneers from Colorado Montana Ari-
zona and the other territories and districts the
Rocky Mountains will also have their delegates in the
Grand Council. This being SO, there can be
for any Circle in the States the Atlantic slope to
far neglect its duty as to be unrepresented there
We aware that some people think the holding of
these Conventions expensive and unnecessary alleging
that the business of the Organization be done
well without them AS well might they say that the
business of the American Republic could be as we'll
transacted by the President and his Cabinet, without
troubling the senators and representatives to go to
Washington, for the purpose of celebrating and
passing laws for the welfare and protection of the
nations rights and liberties. Were this idea acted on
in what would differ from the despotisms of the
earth? The Irish people have been too much addicted
to the pernicious habit Of abdicating their right of
thinking and permitting any charlaan who had impu-
dence enough to set himself up their guide to think
and act for them All the shame and disgrace that
have stained for the past seven years. be
traced to this mental lazness of our people and not
till the fruits of long years of anxious toll were squan-
dered in the most criminal manner did they open their
eyes to see the fearful they had committed It
may be accepted axiom, that the men, nations
who neglect their own business will soon have !" no
business to neglect" The f. B. is based on American
Republican principles and must be carried out strictly
on those principles, cease to exist altogether The
days of chieftains and cansmen have passed away
return more; and must realize the fact that we
live in the nineteenth centuy-that the march of the
world is onward and upward-and that we must keep
abreast the leading columns of progress, be left
behind in darkness and ignorance While attending to
the business of Organization, are learning the
grand science of selfgovernment and preparing our
selves for the glorious destiny of free people We
have had much to unlearn and much to learn in this
great Republic We have been learning from the
American people the art of governing ourselves; and
now we are trying to stand alone, without leaning
