gardens. They wound up the night by state
visit to the Gaiety Theatre, which was crowded
from top to bottom with an enthusiastic
audience which cheered again and again. To-
day the Englishmen visited Dollymount; and
as 1 write they, with the American and Irish
teamss and some three or four hundred citizens,
are attending q grand banquet at the Mansion
House, given by the Lord Mayor in honor Of
the Americans.
Since I wrote last two more public honors
have been paid to the American markmen and
their companions. They were taken to q
promenade concert at the Theatre Royal on
Thursday nigh6, and on Saturday they we're
entertained at . really magnificent banquet by
the Provost and Board of Trinity College,
Dublin. The Provost himself q very old man,
DR.. Lloyd by nancy presided, and proposed
after the health of the Queen the toast of "the
President of the United States" remarking
that that was the first time the health of o
foreign poteptate had been proposed within
the walls of Trinity College. Judge Mullin,
who sat next the Chief Justice of Ireland
(Whitesidel, responded. DR.. Shaw, Fellow of
the College, proposed the health of "the
American Team" to which Col. Gildersleeye
responded; and then followed several other
toasts. Between the several speeches three
songs were sung that had been specially COM
posed and set to music for the occasion. Those
songs are by Mr.. 1. F. Waller, LII D., an indif-
fereut " Dublin Castle" poet and a civil ser
want of the Government. They are not, there
fore, very Irish or patriotic in sentiment, but
they at least breathe great friendship for
Columbia in every line. can say much how
ever, for the music, which is by Sir r. P
Stewart, Professor of Music in Trinity College,
who had the spirit to present each of the two
hundred guests on Saturday night with q
Autographed copy of his manuscript, the flags
of England and America being printed in
colors on the cover.
But here am at the end of my letter and l
have touched but one great item as yet of the
weeks news. Well, my excuse must be that
this one item is almost the only one of which
the generality of people here are talking at
present, and have thought that my American
readers would like TO hear everything of note
there anent even to the exclusion of other
topics. So, till next week, adieu! JJC.
(Our correspondent is in error in stating
that the American team won by only four
points F.; the official report shows them to have
been 80 ahead at the end of the contest.

MARTIN MnMoRE's BUST OF THE PoPE.-The
Baltimore Mirror, in description of St. Jo-
sephs Academy, Emmetsburg, Nd, says:
1t possesses, amongst its other treasures two
works of the most distinguished art, which are
placed in its reception AaH. These are two
busts by young and distinguished Irish
American sculptor, DIR. MilmOre, of Boston,
originality and genius which he exhibits in his
works.
One of these to which we refer is bust of
the Holy Father, which seems, in its beauty,
the reality of life itself. As model it is nm
rivaled, aud great thanks are due to the Rev.
DR.. Silas Chatard, who gained the great favor
for the artist of sitting from Pope Plus TX
for this unique work of American sculpture.
The facial expression is vivid with life, in the
lights and shadows that fall on the features of
the prisoner of the Vatican. There is the
benevolent aud open aspect so familiar to the
world. The wreathed smile dwells on the
it's warm beauty. The details are exquisitely
worked ont. The ermine on the robe, and the
tracery of its appendages are perfect. Mr..
Milmore refused all remuneration for this
him the most unqualified appreciation for the
trutbfullness and merit of the work, and
directed photographs of it for the Vatican.
The other is a bust of the Rev. Father Bur-
laudo, ordered for St. Joseph's from the same
sculptor. This has been most happily exc
cuted, and has received the highest praise for
it's fidelity. Although Mr.. Milmore never saw
the original yet, from photograph of the be-
loved deceased, and descriptions from some OF
his friends, he completed one of the most ex-
traordinary and life-like resembances which
can be conceived. 1t is q very marvel of skill.
and one of the most exquisite works of sculp-
tnre which we have ever noticed. We con-
graduate st. Joseph's on the possession of tHo
such unrivaled works of native art. and felici-
tate the distinguished sculptor on his very
distinguished talents.

The good-heartedness of our great American
money kings and the implicit confidence which
they have in each others good faith and hon
esty, was we'll illustrated the other day. 1t sp.
pears that q rumor was current to the effect
that Senator Jones, Of Nevada, whose income
is said to be $3.50. 900 month, had, through
the sharp financiering of the great New York
stock dealer, Jay Gould, lost 500, 900 in q Wall
street speculation. Senator Jones was at once
interviewed by the reporter Of an ambitious
paper in San Francisco, which could not be-
lieve that the shsrpest fnaucier of the Pacific
slope hSd been "tsken in" by q New York
broker and stock dealer, however rich. Jones
at once emphatioally denied the report, where
upon followed this question and answer:
Reporter-In all this time did you not
operate in Wall streetf'
Senator Jones-Oh, yes; I had one deal
while this was going on. Ii was small one,
and made through Jay Gould. When it was
thought that our proposed contract would be
accepted by the Mail Company the stock Of
Park one day that he thought it would touch
$50 and then break. He proposed to mako a
small deal, aud he offered to take half and give
us half of 10 900 shares. We told him to go
ahead. He gave us 500 shares, and kept the
same number himself. he said he had bought
the purchase for friend, which we agreed
to. Park and l talked the matter over
that afternoon, and concluding he might
want to buy some more for his friend, we went
to broker and sold our 4 500 and 20, 600 be- |
sides, 80 as to make it easy for his END 10 get
all he wanted. We filed up our stocks at u
profit of $4,000 or $4,000, and that's the only |
ieal had in New York"

BRITISH TARIFF ON FRENCH WIEEs.-In re-
ply to a request of the French Government.
the British Board of Trade cent special COM
missioners to the different wine. producing
regions of France, in order to determine by
actual experiment the alcoholic strength of
each kind of wine, to discriminate in
favor of the milder brands in the imposition
of import duties. OF fifGy-fve different wines
less than loo "a ceDtessimals; forty one, over
100 -, aud less than 1Oo "a; six contained over
lac "a and less than 30 80. Wine producers
in Portugal and Spain, jealous of French pro-
ducers, were pressing the British Government
to reconstruct it's tariff schedule SO as to make
12o confessional the line of demarcatton be-
tween weak and strong wines, instead OF rs,
the standard now recognized. This. would
bring larger number of the French brands
within the denomination of strong wines. The
former are charged with duty of 81 81 francs
per hectoliter; the latter, 6S76 francs. The
proposed change would then bring larger
number within the range of high-tarif charges,
and render their competition with the PENN
sular wines difficult, If not impossible
