John M. Moriarity, President of the Irish
Republican Association of Philadelphia, had
an interview with President Grant and Secre-
tary Fish yesterday in behalf of Am erican cit
liens of Irish birth now in British prisons
Mr.. Moriarity stated that these men had been
convicted, not for expressions or any overt act
in England, but for sentiments uttered in the
United States, and that as Mr.. Gladstone had
refused to liberate them he thought it was the
duty of this government to insist that the pris-
oners should be set at liberty. The President
remarked, that several delegations had called
upon him in relation to the same subject. that
his sympathies were with those prisoners and
therefore he should he gratified attheir release,
and that he had placed the matter in the hands
of Secretary Fish; subsequently the last named
gentleman informed Mr.. Moriarity that he had
exerted his influence to secure the object of his
visit, and would persevere to that end; and he
gave an assurance that the government would
adopt every means in its power to protect all
American citizens, both at home and abroad in
all their rights

THE New York Democrat copies the fol-
lowing: "Brck" Pomeroy is accepted as
representative Democrat. His paper is the
best exponent of the feelings of the great
body ofthe Democratic party, in the cities
especially. This paper, the Democrat, which
sis nothing if not Democratic" reeks with
filth and indecency. 1t proposes to develop
its Democratic proclivties still further by in
citing the working men of New York to
join in revolution TO wipe out every bond
holder in that city, and level his place of
business or residence to the dust. Its not
probable this threat will be carried out but
the fact that it is made by the paper which
, is the best interpreter of the average Dep.~
cratic sentiment Of -PIncfpat city in the
? country, shows of what material the party IA
composed, and how dangerous are its i'm
pulses. 80
Pomerey adds:
Tie above, from Radical State paper is
good, for it tells just what we said and what
we mean. And what are you going to do
about it?
