GRIN HUMoR.-The following blithe para
graph from New York paper illustrates what
passes in that city for fun; To-day our muir
der market is steady. Convictions weak, with q
downward tendency. Chances for new trials
brisk and improving. Certainties of executions
scarcely quoted at all. There are eight convict
ed murderers In the T0mbs. and four awaiting
the action Of the courts. Only one is counted
on as sure contribution to the gallows and he
is poor Irishman who killed his wife in
drunken quarrel"

The QUESTION of Home Rule for Ireland is
exciting considerable attention throughout Great
Britain. On the 4th inst, demonstration in
favor of the measure was HELD at Dundalk. and
on the ensuing night similar meeting was held
atLeeds. GIN the 9th inst, the Marquis OF Hart
ington, Postmaster General, in addressing his
constituents at Kingston, in Wales, denied en-.
tirely that the policy Of the government towards
Ireland had failed. He believed that legislation
had produced and was producing very good
possible frmness and patience. Sir John GRAY.
N. p, spoke on the same subject before his con-
stituents at Kilkenny, saying: az would be
anxious to see this people build up their lber-
not relaxing the effort to secure native Parlia-
ment for Ireland, earnestly, actively, and de-
terminedly lab0ring to attain those means of
impartng the greatness and power which are
essential to the preservation of the National
Parliament, where IL NAV be attained

HOW GRANT MARES PAY.

The New York Sun runs a parallel be-
tween the personal habits of Grant and
some Of the earlier Presidents, in order to
show that /" the cost of maintaining the
White House and dispensing the Executive
hospitality under Grant is certainly double
what was paid by Jefferson, Madison, Mon
roe or Jackson; and yet the present-taker
grows rich on $4,000 a year, while they
left the White House not only with
their fortunes diminished, but most of
them overwhelmed by pecuniary embar-
rassment." After reminding the
reader that Jeferson's furniture and estate
were sold to satisfy his creditors that No j.
ison was compelled to borrow $780, to
discharge debts that had accrued during his
Presidency; that Monroe, whose years had
been spent in the service Of his country. re-
tired to private life finding himself impov-
eTished, his estate sold for %ebt, his family
scattered, and his daughNyr buried in a for
eign land; and that jar -kson, at the end of
his term, drew against his cotton crop. then
in New Orleans, foy $4,000 to pay his cred
itOrs al the seat of Government, the SUI,
says:
"Grant, on the other hand, when Gov.
Yates save him command of an Illinois
! regiment, was as poor as Lazarus. He now
maintains an establishment of legal magni-
! fcence at the White House, with three OF
| four brevet Brigadier Generals illegally at
/ tached to his court, the cost of which is out
/ of proportion to the amount of his salary
and at the same time he is piling upa huge
| fortune and enriching his relations & nd hi:
