barter away the right of our nation, at the
bidding Of the men whose ambition is to
consolidate the accursed Union,to keep
John Bulls hands in our pockets, and
take Ireland as patch on the back Of
every platform in the county and chased
you from our midst. Noble as our coun-

some men who loved Ireland but were
led astray by vile press-should we, l
say, victimize the man who, with the
ancient chivalry of our race, has stood in

no fewer than thirty men could be thus

Isaac Butt and P. J. Smyth.

The cool and careful report of the
American Consul has fired all Europe.
The Russian people are so excited that
the Car can scarcely restrain them. The
English people are thoroughly ashamed
of their government. France is deeply
moved. Victor Hugo, the poet, is out
with u whitening condemnation of the
Turkish Empire. which he styles wild
beast government running unchecked in
the midst of civilized Europe. In the
meantime the Servians and Montenegrins
are at the throats of their Turkish op-
pressors. Your daily cable reports have
told, day after day. how the Servians
were defeated yesterday, how they were
victorious to-day. and speculation may be
occupied as to how either party will fight
tomorrow or the next day or the next.
But tell you, and repeat it again. that
though the Turks were to getto the walls
of Belgrade. they will be ultimately de-
feated. The Lord has delivered them

will be surrounded from Wallachia by a

with the Turk. There will be no peace.
