O'DoNovAN Rosa and other Fenians

ODoNovAN Rosa and other Fenians
were released from Chatham on the 9th.
They proceeded to Liverpool to leave
the country. The British Government,
it is said, pays their expenses to the
United States. They sailed for New
York on the 9TH, in the steamer Cuba.
When the steamer reached Queenstown
q committee visited the prisoners and
gave them an outfit and twenty pounds
each. The men seemed to be satisfied
with their treatment by the Govern
ment. The people of Queenstown gave
them a serenade before they sailed.
Their pardon is not complete: So long
as they remain within British domini-
ons, they are esnbject to the full penal
ties of the law under which they were
sentenced. Halpin still refuses to ac-
cept,a conditional pardon. 49,

THROUGH NIGHT TO LIGHT.
Out Of the shadow into the sun
Out q the winter into the spring.
The world wheels On, and the air is filled
With the wind OF tho south's low whispering
Tho wakening heart of the mountain throbs
The valley, under the palid SHOWS,
Feels at her breast the soft, sweet stir
OF baby violet, lily and rose.
Under the leo the brook laughs on,
Under the snow the crocls dreams,
And that is but warmth and g,xtle steep
Which cold, and rigid, and dcathly seems.
Sweetheart winter infolds our days-
winter Of darkness, and grief, and pain
Yet never n winter was bravcly borne
But there came, in time, the April rain.
Under the ice the hvook laughs on
Under the snow the csacus drcams:
And that may be wiscst tcnderest, best,
Which hard, and cold, and hopeless seems.

Home and lis Queen,

The is propatly not an. unpcrverted
man or woman living who does not feel
that the sweetest ccnsolations and the
best rewards Of life are found in the loves
and delights of home. There are few
the influences that clustered around their
cradles for whatever Of good there may
be in their characters and conditions.
Home, based upon legitimate mar.
riage, is SO evidently au institution Of
God, that q man must become profane
before he can deny it. Wherever it is
planted, it stands a bulwark. Where
ever it is pure and true to virtuous idea,
there lives an institution conservative Of
all the noblcr interests Of society.
Of this realm woman is the queen. II
takes Its cue and hue from her. If sho
is in the best sense womanly--if she is
true and tender, loving and heroic, pa.
tient aud self devoted she consciously
or unconsciously organizes and puts in
operation set of influences that do more
to mould the destiny Of the nation than
any man uncrowned, by power or elo-
quence, can possibly effect. The men of
the nation arc what their mothers made
them, as a rule and tho voice which
those men speak in tie expression of
their power is the voice Of tho women
who bore and bred them.
There can be no substitute for this,
There is no other possible way in which
the women Of tho nation can organize
their influence and power that will tell so
bene6ceutly upon society and the state.
Neither woman nor the nation can afford
to have home demoral;zed or in any way
detcrioratcd by the loss Of her influence
there. As o nation, We rise or fall Is
tho character Of our home. presided over
by women, rises or falls, and the hest
guago Of our prosperity is to be found ia
the measure by which these homes fnd
multiplication in the land. In true mar.
riage, and the struggle after the highest
ordeal Of home. life, is to be found tho
solution Of more of the ugly problems
that confront the present generation
moral, social and political-than VIC have
space to enumeratc.-Am. Odd Fellow.

SOME of the GROWERS have seen fit, in
their wisdom, to criticise the act of Lieu
tenant General Sheridan, in sending troops
to Chicago during the fire in that city,
though he was requested to do so by the
Mayor in his official capacity; and even
charge him with murder in the unfortu-
nate killing of Colonel GrosvenOr. Gen.
eral Sheridan's course has been fully ap-
proved, as the following extract from Gen
eral Sherman's report to the Secretary of
War fully attests:
1.-The extraordinary circumstances attending
the great fire in Chicago made it eminently
proper that General Sheridan should exercise
the influence, authority and power he did on the
universal appeal of q ruined and distressed peo-
pie, backed by their civil agents, who were
powerless for good. The very moment that the
civil authorities felt able to resume their func-
tons, General Sheridan ceased to exercise au-
thority. and the United States troops returned
to their respective stations. General Sheridan's
course is fully approved

though ostrich tips are very popular. Still
hard times prevail!
