To the Editors of The Irish Republic.
GENTLEMEN The editorial in this weeks issue of your
paper in reference to "The Prisoners Families" is an
appeal to which but the hearess and the cruel will
fail to respond
Let there an association in each State of the Union
The Irish Patriots Friend Society," each paying dollar
initiation and fifty quarter, the meetings of the

of Ireland have robbed We must give solid testimony
of dislike for that Governmental friendship for
those who have than died in their opposition to that
Governmental our affection for the land where OPP
pressed forehers lived and died. and where the fathers
and mothers and brothers, of many of hushed
into silence by force every other that is repulsive
to mans feelings.

mercfu 10 those whom she subdues) feel that she cannot

already driven out only here with vengeance" We

purpose of forming the much desired union We must be
unitedwe will be united Time will out of the Fenian
Organization the heartess cannot be many left to
sustain folly and madness Our peoples hearts are right
the scales will fall from their eyes day not far distant
One word, public private | have uttered
to urge those noble to do what every person of

On the altar of freedom they have inundated their
happness-and their families must be taken of,
the most heares people in the world and the least
deserving of liberty. How much more then those

leave much longer in Canadian dungeons those
brave fellows who would drive the flag of the British feon

And Vesper quickens as the glory fades
First yields broken music to the glades,
Like one beginning an uncertain tale
Then strengthening bursts in palpitant roulades
At times, as evening dusks, the oceans
Remote, and, near the rivers wagling tone,
Sliding past oak root, over brown, messed stone,
Upon the airy stiffness spreading lone,
Makes heard amid the hush its watry monotone.
And past the hills are towns whte-walled and strong,
Temples of eloquence, pictured life and song,
Regions of coast and woodlands rich and gracious,
Broad lands of heroic men, bright and undaunted,
Islands of peace where Greece's golden daughters
Dance by the marble fanes where music sounding
Enchants the soul and sense with dreams elysian:
Then like cloud upon the fields the dream is gone,
And all around dark and dreary this norand vision
Remote, the sullen headlands stormy fronted,
The clear foam-bilow'd ocean rolling spacious,
And from the bleak waste sheteress, resounding
Ceaseess, the dull deaf raging of laboring waters
