Sunday last was the -syenty-ninth birth
day anniversary ~ Father Mathew, the
apostle of tep<pcrance. 1t Is gratifying to
know the In all parts of the country the
day las suitably celebrated, and that the
.nrtues OF this great laborer in the cause Of
humanity were the theme of many eloquent
addresses. 1t can DO said In truth that there
is no part of the world that has not felt the
influence of that truly great and good man.
No one has deserved more Of the esteem OF
his fellow-man In our day and generation
than Father Mathew. He was a patriarch
among his own people, and leaving his
native land, sought out their children and
children's children in the United States 10
impress upon them the Importance of total
abstinence. In no country Is his memory
more revered and his principles productive
of happier effect than In our own. True 10
the teachings Of that other great apostle,
the patron saint OF Ireland-we mean 81.
Patrlck-Father Mathew may be Justly called
an apostle Of temperance. The sons Of Erin
have carried the light Of the Christian reli-
gion to every part Of the habitable globe,
and the labors Of Father Mathew are per.
petuatcd In good deeds of benevolence where.
ever an Irlshman can be found.
The celebration Of his birthday this year,
we trust, is a happy omen Of the spread oil
his teachings among all classes In our coun'
try. It Is, indeed, commendable to show
our respect to the memory Of ono who rose
up In the time of need and by word and ex-
ample helped to stem the torrent of intern
perance that was threatening the happiness,
temporal and eternal, Of bis fellow-country-
men.

THE PENNSYLVANIA Coal TRADE. The
Philadelphia Ledger Of Monday says with
reference to the coal trade:
The anthracite coal trade has been greatly
interfered with the past week by the freshet
Of week before last. Transportation has
been interrupted on the lines Of almost all
Of the principal carrying companies rail-
roads as well as canals. A portion OF the
tonnage reported In the last weekly state
ment Of the trade includes the business OF
some Of the companies for one or tive days
before the freshet, making the tonnage ap-
pear rather better than 1t otherwise would.
The tonnage OF the Schuylkill region, as
shown by the statements, by both road and
canal, for the week ending on the 7th inst,
is but 1891 tons against l34, 427 tons the
preceding week, showing = decrease Of 40, 126
tons. The tonnage Of all the carrying com.
panies for the week was but 500, $50 tons
against 35s,074 tons the preceding week, q
decrease Of 1880 tons, and for the year
10,572,5l tons against 10,667, 754 tons to
corresponding time last year, showing 4 de-
crease Of about 95,2Ss tons.

rEnnupEI OUTRAGE.

A YsNsg Lady 81 this Cisy she victim
Ms Dooly, Of Washington eity, beauti-
FOL, ilas,ligcnt and interesting young lady,
whs for some time past has been teaching
school IN Prince Georges county, Maryland,
atout . mile from Fort Washington, was
met on the road yesterday morning, while
walking from the house Of Mrs. schoafi,
where she boarded, 10 her school house, by
. colored man, who has . wife living In this
city, and knocked down, brutally outraged
and robbed. Her screams attracted the at
tention Of some gentlemen who were hunt
Ing In the vicinity, but who, when they
reached the spot, found her In totally un-
conscious condition, and her rayishcr goue.
As may readily DO imagined, the news Of tho
outrage spread rapidly through the neigh
borheod, And In short time the adjoining
country was being secured by parties In PUT
suit Of villain, and towards nightfall he
was caught near the rccne OF his crime and
taken TO Piscataway. where he Is now
chained 70 another Of his race, who had been
previously arrested on susplcion.
for In his scuffie with the unfortunate young
lady . cotton bandage was torn from his
hand, left on the ground, and found there
afterwards BY tHosc EhS Examined the
locality. On SATURDAY iast he had cut his
hand ~ith . scythe, and having no rag
convenient, he had torn on piece Of the leg
Of his drawers, and made bandage Of II,
and the rag found corresponds with the
piece torn Of. He lived with Mr.. Adams,
who farms portion Of Mrs. SchoaGs land,
and was driving an OF cart when he met
Miss Dooley In the road, which, between the
houses Of Mrs. schoah and Captain Bessly,
runs through thick pieco Of woods, and per
petrated his hendlsh crime, BY nrst knock
Ing down his victim and then dragging
her Into the woods. Till. isthe supposition,
for the young lady has not yet recovered
consciousness, and received such injuries

uncertain about her recovery. Her three

The TINES ON FENIAN MEETINGS.
London Timss, In an editorial on the Fenian
amnesty meetings, saysi "The Crown Is in
yited TO pardon rebels who do not pretend to
be penltent, not because the conspiracy Ia
crushed, but that 1t Ia still formidable enough
to rally sympathizers. No one doubts the right
Of the Government TO suppress with vlgor
outrages against law and order. Had the
forbearance Of the Crown been invoked In
becoming tone, with recognition Of Its rights
10 protect peaceable and loyal citizens,
amnesty might be a message OF peace. At
present we see no presumption that 1t would
be received In that spirit by those who de-
mand 1t, while II must operate as dis
enlargement to those who helped to crush
the Feniau outbreak. There can DO no
greater injustice or impolicy than such an
act II Ireland Is still Fenian at heart or hos
tile TO union. We believe Q majority OF the
Irish would rejoice at the suppression or
Fenianism, and that some who sign the
amnesty petitions would be thankful II the
petitions were rejected

WHAT SPIRITS EAT, DRINK AND WAR
Miss Nettie N. Pease preached on Sunday
evening before the Society Of SpirituallstA In
New York, and told her audience what tho
spirits cat and drink, and whcrewithal they
are clothed. She contended that the spirit
ual body was real and substantial as that In
which tho soul dwells on earth; that It sub
sists on food consisting Of the vapors aris-
ing from tho food and products common on
earth; that there are fruits In the summer
land adapted to the use Of that spiritual
body, and that the clothing Ia furnished In
the form Of . white robe 70 each spirit as 1t
arrives In tho upper sphere. In that land
there 10 nothing obtained for the mere ask
ing; on the contrary, labor Is as imperative
on US there as here, In order TO obtain those
supplies necessary to the spiritual condition.
They are not, however, obtained or pur-
chased BY gold, silver or greenbacks, as
here, but by system Of barter. The musi-
clan and the painter, II they fancy shady
bower laden with flowers and moss, ex-
change the products Of their art therefor,
and so on with all the higher, poorer and
wiser treasures Of the mind stored upon
earth; they are the medium Of exchauge In
obtaining all that Is necessary to our condi-
ton there. In explanation Of the apparent
conflict Of reports from the spirit land, as to
the location aud character Of the other
world, she said that those who chung to the
treasures Of earth In this world still con
dnued to be attracted by them In the future
life, and therefore fingered near 70 earth
after their departure. These, OF course,
could tell nothing OF the summer land; while
those who had cultivated high and spiritual
thoughts passed far up into that brighter
region.

The PLAN AND SCHEDULE Of Mr.. Koop-
manschaap's Chinese agency In New Or
leans are now made pnblic. The Louisi-
anians are to pay the laborers $40 month
currency or Is gold. They must also ad-
vance $50 for payment OF the emigrant's
passage, and two months wages. Can the
planters raise 80 mach money COS, 900 for
every twenty hands, and can they be sure
that the laborcrs will "stick" after they
come The contractor will only guarantee
sound health, sobriety, and capacity to
work. The New Orleans COMMERCIAL Bul-
lsiin treats sshis subject at length, and con-
cludes that the planters can raise money 10
import laborers, and that 1t is desirable to
introduce Q large number OF Chinese as
safeguard against their abandonment ofagri-
culture for other fields OF labor.

NEWARK, M j., has couple by tho name
Of Thornton whose history is better than
romance. The man Is a graduate Of Har-
ward College, great lingulst, fine musician,
and has boon Congregational clergyman.
Tho woman, now blind, Is highly cultured,
and In former years was an artist, giving
instructions In painting In several Of the
arst-class families In New York. The house
they occupy, though recently built, presents
disgusting appearance; 1t consists Of two
rooms, one up stairs and one down, the
former being used as q hay.loft, and the
latter occupied by the old couple In COM
pany with six dogs, six cats, horse, and q
COW. The cats and dogs are never allowed
TO go out Of this room. One of the dogs,
"Beauty" by name, has often been used by
Mrs. Thornton to lead her, when without her
husband, and she once travelled from this
city to Kansas with other companion.
This strange couple represent themselves as
very destitute, yet 1t Is believed that they are
worth at least ten Thousand dollars, having
received that amomnt about three years ago
for farm at lrvlngton. -r

What could induce the people Of Tennessee
