The "hcme rule" movement in ireland differ,
from Fenianism in this. that the former is a de-
mand for self-gOvernment as a province, with
out casting of allegiance to the reigning SOW
eTeign Of Great Britain, while the latter con-
templates complete independence for Erin, with
a sovereign or a president as the people may de-
eide. The advantages of the agitation for home
rule Is that if conceded it may bring about
Peaceahly in time the national Independence
which FeRianiSn could only gain, if at all,
through bloody war

THELABoR MOVEMENT IN GREAT BRITAIN
The English labor market continues disturbed
The journeymen irOnworkers and apprentices
In seven of the fOundries of Dundee, the total
number being about 800, have struck for fifty
one hours as weeks labor, and have rejected
the proposal of the employers to submit the
question to arbitration. The adoption Of fifty
four hours as a weeks work went into effect at
She field on the LIST instant, but the accompany
Ing arrangements caused a strike of about six
hundred men in the engineering trades In
june last the South Wales STEAMBOAT golfers
turned out TO the number of IL 900 for an advance
OF 10 per cent. in the rate of wages then being
paid to them. After standing out for three
months and enduring great distress, the men
agreed to resume work at the end of August
cOnditionally on the whole matter in dispute
being referred to arbitration. The commence
ment OF the arbitration is delayed by the unac-
countable tardineSs of the masters. The men
express great dissatisfaction at this delay, aud
threaten that, unless the masters finish their
arrangements soon, they will turn out again

Thy MALICE or STOKES.-An Ausaos 4, Is
sGsiEGte Col Fisk at HIS ENTHUSIASTICALLY
Standard reporter was informed by a gentle
man connected with the Erie railway that
about two weeks prior to the shooting of Col
Fisk bv Stokes, the COlonel's private residence
IN sd street was entered.after midnight by three
armed rufhans, who succeeded in effecting an
entrance through the front door by means of
raise Keys, and got as far as the bathroom
connecting with Col. Fsk's bed chamber, when
they dropped a key on the floor, which awoke
the Colonel's valet. As soon "a they found
themselves discovered they became alarmed
and fed from the premises, pursued BY the
valet, who fired two shot at them from a
rrvolver, as is supposed, without effect
Detectives set to work up the case, it Is said
arrived at the conclusion that Stokes instipated
the burglary as part of a plan to attack Fisk
while asleep. and failed through the clumsiness
OF the assassins and vigilance of the servant
From the same source it is reported that an
attempt on the life of Mr.. Jay Gould was made
about two months ago, by running him down
while crossing over from one side of Fifth ave-
nue. to the other. Mr.. Gould was knocked down
and slightly injured by vehicle, which, IL il
alleged, was driven by person in the emp oy
OF Stokes. These statements were given by one
OF Col. Fisk's most ardent friends, who evidently
Is convinced of the truth of the charges against
the prisoner.-N. Y. Standard, ITth.
