affected cities north of us, is gravely aVerred
by many of the Canadians. But we have
all along secuted these stories as importing
too mad project of useless mischief
to be credited for an instant. A number OF
the Fenians may have spoken in the spirit OF
blood and thunder six months ago; but Is tins
good cause for taking fright at so very long
rangeH AS our Canadian correspondent
finds shade of seriousness in the appre-
tensions awakened by the Canadian Min
istry, we make every allowance for them,
without actually being able to believe in
them. The Fenians, if guilty Of the Grim
inal blunder of waging war without a
cause or an object, have only themselves to
blame if their countrymen in prison are groan-
ing. But the English Ministry will, we hope
entertain more cheerful view of the last Fee
MAN alarm than they have now, and of the
disposition of the people who ask boon OF

The town of Pittsburg, n. H., is in state
of intense excitement because it is believed that
gold has been discovered there. II is stated
that the Assistant State Geologist aflirms the
existence of the precious metal within the
borders of said Pittsburg. We suppose that
we ought to congratulate the Pittsburghers
upon this discovery-that is if it is a discovery
but we can't We do not believe that all
the gold which may be found in that region
will ever compensate for the feverish pursuit
of it, or for the diversion of honest men from
labors steadier, and in the long run more
profitable, than golddigging. There may be
gold enough in New Hampshire to found few
companies upon, and somebody will make money
out of the stock-but that is all.

Miss Olive Logan has been lecturing again
in Boston, and this time everything went on
with smooth serenity. The Daily Advertiser
complains of Miss Logan's manner as STACY"
which, considering that she is an actress, is per-
haps the most natural which she can employ.
"The Muse of Lecturing" says The AdrertiSer
gravely, "as we paint her to ourselves, is clad
Gin the simplest robes, and is direct unarti-
fetal, and severely simple in manner" On
the other hand we should say that the Muse
of Lecturng is rather protean goddess, and
that sometimes an unarificap manner may
be the perfection of art. II Mrs. Kemble should
lecture would anybody be in the least obliged
to her if she should scrupulously avoid
dramatic mannerH Sometimes we think that
if lecturers would be trifle more dramatic in
manner the auditorium would be little less
like n great dormitory.

New amnesty meetings in Ireland are be-
rating Mr.. Gladstone with better reason, we
hope, than the Canadians have for believing
that the Fenians intend to make war upon
them. Can it be that knowledge Of the sus-
picion which has just electrified the land of
Macdonald and Cartier has caused the abrupt
retirement of the hopes which have been
held out to the Irish at homef We
have the testimony of the 0'DOnoghue that
it is not the unappeased vindictiveness of the
British people which keeps the maltreated
Fenians still In durance vile, but rather the
frenzy and folly of few of their partisans.
That new invasion had been resolved upon by
the Fenian organization, and that attempts

To-day the first session Of the Social Science
Congress will be held. The afternoon meeting
is to be opened at o'clock, with an address by
DR.. s. Eliot of Boston, President of the Asso-
citation, who will be followed by Prof D. c..
Gilman of Yale College with an essay on
" Industrial Schools" Another meeting takes
place at p. M, when papers are to be read
by Prof. Il. w. Dwight on The Public Char
" tiles of New York." and Mr.. A. r. Spofford,
the well-knOwn Librarian of Congress- on the
Public Libraries of the United States" The
recognized ability of these gentlemen, and their
familiarity with the subjects of which they are to
treat afford guarantee that their essays will be
well worth hearing. No admission is charged, and
the public are cordially invited to attend All
the meetings will be held in the lecture-roOm
of the Historical Society, corner of Eleventh
st. and SecOnd-ave. The work OF the Social
Science Association having for its object to
aid human progress by promoting the careful
study and judiciOus treatment of all social
problems, we hope that our citizens will show
their sympathics for it by numerous attend
ance at its sessions. Certainly, no exercises of
higher character, practically and intellectu-
ally, than those announced in the programme
for the three days discussions have ever taken
place in our city.

acquaintcd with it, The testimony of the
prisoner himself as reported in The TRIB-
UNE of Friday. appears to us to have been re-
marllably clear and straightforward; and II 1t
is to be credited the case was evidently one OF
manslaughier. 1t is also stated that previous
to the trial the Government was willing to
accept plea of guilty of manslaughter in the
third degree, but that the prisoner refused 80
to plead. After this the Government goes on
and convcts him of murder. Of course. we
understand that the prosecuting officer had
right to press for conviction according to the
indictment; but it seems strange that the jury
should have been less lenient than the prose
CutiOn.

We are glad to hear Of the successful pro-
gress of the work of constructing the cable
that is designed to connect Havana with ia
maica and the other West India Islands. This
cable will, doubtless, be laid and in operation
early next year. and soon thereafter line will
be laid connecting the West Indies with Pan
anna and Central America. This opening up
of Geographic communication between New
York and these points ought to help greatly
in the increase of commercial intercourse and
the development of commercial relations be-
tween our own country and those rich tropical
regions.

As well by the defeat of Andrew johnson in
Tennessee as by the defeat of Mr.. Pendleton
in Ohio, we are saved from the noisy and
nOisome presence of financial heresies, whose
logical result is reputation. We have not yet
forgotten the great scheme with which Mr..
Johnson attempted to startle the country in the
last days of his Presidential term, and through
which he proposed to annllilate the national
debt by dcducting from the principal the
amounts paid as interest to the bondhodcrs.
Had he got back to the Senate, he would,
doubtless, have played the demagogue with
this or some other equally infamous PROPOSE
ton. We are grateful that we have been
saved from the trouble of combating his cum
ningly devised scheme for demorlizing the
public sense of honesty, and familiarizng the
country with the idea of reputation.

the suicide of her maniac murderer, tells an
