The worst Result.

The flight Of Marsh is not by
any means the worst result Of the
Presidential proclamation of hos
tiIity TO witnesses who disclose any
thing showing corruption in the
administration. Unfortunate as
that flight is in some repects, the
facts remain that Marsh has testi-
fed, aud that the corrupt Official
whom he exposed has confessed
and las ceased to have power for
further corruption. 1t would b
better, of course, if he could be for
mally tried and by the judgement
Of court solemnly disqualified from
holding Office again in the Repub-
lie whose interests he so shamefully
betrayed. Practically, however, he
is as much disqualified rs he can
he by the judgement of any conrt;
and the absence of Marsh is. there
fore. less Of misfortune than it
might be. 1t is in respect TO the
army Of witnesses whose testimony
has not vet been given that the
Presidential edict works injury to
the country. The announcement
that accomplices will not be per-
mitted to save themselves by max
ing clean breast Of ii if the Attor-
nv-General can prevent, will close
the mouths Of hundreds who could,
IL they would, lay bare the iniquit-
les of Grants administration. and
viii send other hundreds flying
from the country to avoid being
summoned as witnesses. The dis
charge of Evans, the Fort Sill
post-traier. is a direct notification
to other post traders to keep their
council if they wish to retain their
positions. The action Of the House
in respect TO giving immunity to
witnesses, may, if confirmed by the
Senate, do something to remedy
the evil, hat the present indication
are that Grant will endeavor to en-
force his doctrine that no guilty
man is TO escape. by taking good
care that no one in whom he takes
any interest, personal or partisan,
I've found guilty.-Free Press.

ntted for the American stage by MIR. Daily In
character 1t Is mainly farce leaning toward
comedy. At least the first two phases, which
occupied the stage till 1880 were such. Some
burlesque was afterward introduced, and some
advertisements danced.
Altogether the piece. when II shall have been

Charles Fisher played an eccentric character,
sucn as he can so well embody; Mr. jas Lewis,
MIR. Daydge, Mira. Gilbert. and Miss Mary Wells

throughout was good.
The nrst appearance OF Miss Amy Fdwsitt in

had been seen Ia but one character, added
much TO the interest OF the occasion Miss
Fawsitt has pleasing face, good stage pres

warmly greeted on her 1rst entran' .. and
steadily won moro and more the favor OF her

dence, he said whitley did not open his mouth
and give u truthful narrative OF the conspiracy
until he saw the doors Of the Penltentiary ABOUT

THE IRISH RIFLE TEAM.
An Ensrt - Mar the Pleasure Of their VIsas
to the National Capital.

WASHINGTON, Sept. H.-At a meeting Of
the Irish citizens OF this city, held last evening,
to complete the arrangements for awarding q
gold medal to the member OF the Irish rife
team making the best score, It was said that
rumor had been circulated that some Of the
team had boen on Juries to convict Feni IN pris-
oners 10 Dublin, but this rumor was denied on
the authority OF Major Leech OF the Irish team.
A resolution was offered declaring that num-
Der OF Irish citizens OF Washington aie opposed
to the use Of the Irish name in the reception Of
the so called Irish team, and requesting tho gem
tlemeD Interested In getting up tho trophy to DO
presented to the best shot in that team to use
their own names, and not that OF the Irish res
idents OF Washington.
The resolution caused some excitement, es-
pecially when the mover declared that no was a
victim OF British tyrannv. having been confined
IN Kilmainhsm and Cork Jails for seven months
during the FeDian troubles; that be was an
American citizen when arrested, and knew of
his own personal knowledge that two OF the
present Irish team were on jufies that sent
lrish-Amer1can citizens to British prisons.
This resolution was rejected, and one was
adopted directing the Committee on Prizes to
draft suitable resolutions expressing the graft
tude Of the meeting OF Irish American citizens
OF the capital Of the United states to Major
Leech, Captain of the Irish team, in being it-
strumental in bringing about the pleasant rela-
tions that exist to-day between Ireland aud
