DEFEAT on GLApsToNE,s BILL.

The Irish University bill was intended
to redress the grievances Of the Irish
Catholics, who are practically debarred
from taking the degrees in the universi-
ties of the United Kingdom. He intro.
duced it on the 18th ultimo in a speech
Of three hours length. In supporting
the bill he is reported to have said that
the grievance consisted, in his view, in
the miserably bad, scandalously bad "
state Of the Irish Catholics as TO the en-
joyment Of university training. BY a
close examination of figures, he brought
out the result that only one hundred and
forty-fve is the whole number of persons
whom -four millions and upwards OF
Roman Catholics ia ireland at present
succeed in bringing within the teaching Of
a university, to secure acadsmieal train
ingin the faculties art, as distinguished
from professional instruction in law, ned
ieine, and engineering. Taking in. the
students who receive professional in
struction, he said there are but seven
h0ndred and eighiyfour in ireland,
against four thousand which Scotland,
with half the population, Possesses. =
The defeat was due to the failure Of the
Irish Liberals to support the measure.
The Scotch and welsh Liberals, most OF
the English, but scarcely one-third Of
the Irish, came 70 the aid OF the Premier
in his great effort to do justice to Ire
land. This is as il has ever been. Not
many days since Cardinal Cullsu, chief
Of the Irish Catholics, issued a mani
fsstO deuotnciug the proposed measure
as not suHicieuty Catholic This played
exactly into the hands Of the Tories,
Who. If they could control Parliament,
wosld give no relief whatever. Thus,

A Destructive Fire In Ine fOurh

NEw ORLEANS, March l5.-At about
half past eleven o'clock last night ATTIRE
was discovered in an unoccupied one
story frame building belonging to q
widow lady. and situated on Philip, be-
tween Willow and Clara streets. The
flames spread to 3 one-story frame
building adjoining, occupied by Caleb
Jones' and both were speedily envel-
oped. From there another one-story
frame house, occupied by Mahlor Ad-
ans, and owned by Sergeant Peter Jo-
seph, became ignited. Next, the house
owned and occupied by Mr.. Henry Ed
wards, fell a victim, and finally the
flames extended to the cottages Of Louis
jackson and of Alfred Warner. All of
the above buildings were wholly de-
stroysd. and large portion Of the ef-
fects of the occupants shared the same
fate. Another cottage, that of Mr.. Da-
vid Nichols, was injured to the extent Of
about $500. The building of Joseph
was worth $500, and the others perhaps
$1,000 each. The total loss will proba-
bly, reach $4,000. The firemsn's ef-
forts were rendered fruitlesS. owing to
the great scarcity Of water.

NEW YORK.


NEw YonE, March IA special from
London yesterday to the World says;
The Earl Of Derbyis trying 10 form a
cabinet TO be composed Of himself as
Premier; D'Israelli, Chancellor Of the
Exchequer; Edward Hunt, Home Seere-
tary; Sir Stafford Northeote, Secretary
for India; Gothorne Hardy, Foreign
Secretary; Marquis Of Salisbury, Presi-
dent Of the Council; aud Cairns, Lord
Chancellor. Lord Derby's success is
doubtful. II he fails Lord Granvilles
scratch cabinet will come and end with
nm appeal to the country.
The first news Of the decision in the
Foster case, although Informal. ran from
lip to lip like wildGre. and before il had
been an hour old, probably three or four
thousand persons we're aware Of t. The
evening papers rushed out extras with
the brief aud fatal announcement and
Il was the all absorbing topic Of the
evening. This clearly shows the extent
to which the public mind is excited
upon the subject, for in hotel aud club
rooms, in restaurants and in lunch dives
the word Foster could be heard in almost
every circle Of conversation, and IN
salulation OF friends on the street the
general expression Of opinion was sym
patty for Foster, with the belief that his
death is a public necessity, in order to
make street rufIianism as dangerous to
ruaians as to the decent citizen.
Yesterday afternoon Arthur Chambers
and George SiddOns met at the Clipper
Office and made the second deposit in
the match between them, to fight May
2lst for $4,000 and the light weight cham
pionship. A large number OF sports
we're present during the interview. Some
words passed between Chambers and
and siddons, ending in brush between
the two pugilists, Siddons retiring with
a bloody nose, and Chambers with two
large bumps on the forehead and a black
eye. 1t was with great difficulty they
we're finally separated by friends.
The Times this morning publishes
a long letter from General Fremont, in
which he defends himself against the
charges made in regard to his connec-
ton with the negotiation in Paris of
bonds Of the Memphis, Fl PasO and
Pacific railroad. The chief points Of
his defense are that the transactions did
not occur while he was President Of the
board, but transpired at least nine
months before he assumed that position;
that French courts have taken a kind of
snap judgment against him, and that
whatever may have been the mistakes
and Misrepresentation committed, they
originated in Paris, and we're neither
suggested nor done by him.
The Assistant District Attorney yes
terday finished the preparation OF the
Judgment record in the Stokes case, 1t
was sent to Utica last evening for the
signature of Judge Boardman. When it
comes back, the document will be filed
in the District Attorneys Office as the
only record Of the case upon which argu'
nent can be based before the Court Of
Appeals at Albany.

10 abolish the privilege part OF the mer'

sessed and collected on goods sold IN
the State, and thus leave them 70 pay
the ad yalorem tax on theireapital how

or license tax only half as much as the
ad yalorem was lost a day or two ago,
and there is no prospect that any
r.lief viii be afforded this claos.
Many other kinds Of business and
branches of industry are described as
privileges, without any reference to cap
ital employed or profits realized. Take,
for instance, civil engineer, who must
first have a scientific education, and
then toll like day laborer to make
barely a living. There is no reason or
iustice in taxing this class ANY more
than blacksmiths or carpenters. Artists
and photographers are also included
although they produce works ofart with
ont employing much capital This Is p
tax on skilled labor, and nothing disc
Plumbers aud gas filters must also pay
for the privilege of working for living
and earning every dollar they make, by
The sweat of their brow. Butchers, too,
as usual, are included, although this
industrial class is essential wherever
found. and its members are as
industrious and woodworking as are to
he found in the ranks Of any calling
whatever. They rise early and work
late. and earn their bread and meat, too,
az faithfully as the mechanic at the
bench or the farmer atthe plow-handles
They furnish one of the great necessities
of life to the poor as well as the rich;
and when they are taxed by State, county
and city, the price of meat has to 60 up
in proportion, and the people pay the tax
at last, whether able or not in each indi-
yidual case. Several other industrial
pursuits are named as privileges in this
bill Yet we must think, in spite Of all
precedents and popular opinion, that tits
a great mistake to fix specified tax
on any of the industrial or professional
ayocations of life. 1t is well enough to
fix reasonable privilege tax upon
those callings supported by men who
have money to spend for luxuries-such,
for instance, as saloons, billiard tables;
exhibitions for profit, such as slight-of-
hand performances, circuses, theaters
end variety theaters, shooting galleries,
etc. All these things will exist in pros
porous communities and can stand a
tax without detriment to the general
interests. But labor, skilled and un-
skilled, productive industry, business
enterprise, scientific and professional
attainments, should be fostered and de-
veloped by the State rather than loaded
down with privilege taxes. Before the
bill is put on its final passage we hope
that the privileges will be revised aud
greatly reduced in number.

A courier arrived at Yreka last even
ing. Nothing has been heard from
Captain Jack and the Modocs. The
army has made no movement. Every
care is being taken TO guard the lives
aud property of the settlers. II is
thought at the front that Captain Jack
has made efforts TO procure a coalition
with other tribes, and there is danger Of
his success. 1t is probable another
effort viii be made for conferences With
Captain Jack. but this Is doubtful; no
messenger dares risk his life in going TO
him.
