spain Pays.

In the case of the schooners Rising Sun
and Ellen Rizpath, detained by Spanish
vessels while whaling, the Spanish govern
ment proposes to make restitution by pay
ing on account of each vessel the sum Of five
thousand dollars; and the trouble will evil
IDENTIFY be settled in that way. This is q
good result of the prompt and vigorous
course of the State Department, which acted
with Spain in these cases on the good old
theory that one should grasp certain difficult
things ''like man of mettle." If Spain has
to pay five thousand dollars every time her
officers indulge in the impertinence of stop
ping peaceful ships the Spanish govern
ment will perhaps take care that they shall
not often indulge themselves in that way.

Earl Rosebery's Wedding.

Our special cable dispatches describe in
ample detail the marriage of Earl Rosebery
to Miss Hannah de Rothschild, which took
place before an illustrious assemblage in Lon
don yesterday. When aunion which has such
lofty and Crnsus-like surroundings is en-
phatically q union Of hearts humanity can
read of its brilliance with pleas
ure as we'll as wonder. Rich mar
riages are not uncommon in o
land of segregating wealth like England;
but, apart from the qualities Of
the young Earl and his bride, there
is an unusual significance in the
wedding, because it is that of a titled
Gentle to wealthy Hebrew. These inter-
marriages are rare in any station oflife. Old
prejudices on one side, pride Of race and
religion on the other, have kept the races
apart But these influences are weak
ening, the spirit of the age is against
them, and the young Earl has done
a manly thing in disregarding them, as
we'll, let us sincerely hope, as happy thing
in choosing wife from among the beau
tiful daughters of Israel.

and deposit the residuum in lockets to be
worn around the necks of contributors to
the skirmishing fund; but then they ought
to be careful about the United States. Now,
if they annihilate England we don't want
to be called upon to pay for her-and under
the treaty of 1871 it would come to that II
we permit warlike expedition to be'organ-
lied on our soil Tor the purpose,
and which achieves the result contem-
plated by the skirmishers, the heirs,
administrators and assigns would send the
bill to us. III. O'Donovan Rosa, Esq, and
his heroic comrades should set out each one
with half pound Of nitro-glycerine i'll his
pocket, and they should blow up, one the
city of London, another Liverpool, third
Manchester, and so on, the cost to us would
be very great. Indeed, the government
would scarcely get even, though it should
seize the whole fifty thousand dollars that
is always in the skirmishing fund. Out OF
considerations of what is due TO hospitality
they should spare MS this complication.

curse Of politics in their own country and
to the evils of which the streets of New York
have on more than one occasion borne wit
ness. Let them be Americans in America,
and not merely transplanted Orangem en-
and Irish Catholics The people Of the
United States sympathize with Ireland and
with the oppression under which, in the
past, it has suffered. But they see no rea-
son why Irish troubles and Irish enmities
should be revived here, and they are not
willing that their political principle of non
Intervention in the affairs of foreign nations
should be violated because few over
Jealous and some designing and selfish men
desire to agitate wild schemes and intrigues
for what they call Ireland's liberation. In
dead, many good friends of Ireland IN the
United States believe that a separation OF
England and Ireland would not be to the
advantage of either country. Nature de-
signed them for one nation, and Americans
can see no reason why, with justice
on the part of England and moderation
on the part Of Ireland, they should not
live as the States live, in unity and strength.
The wrongs of Ireland have been great, but
the gravest of them are happily Of the past.
A few concessions would give the Irish all
the local freedom and rights enjoyed by
the States of the Union. The Irish people
are naturally warm hearted and as quick to
yield, to kindness as to resist injustice.
They would be the most powerful and the
most reliable arm of the British govern
ment if they should be permitted to elect
their own Lieutenant Governor, have their
own local Legislature and be accorded
home rule, as are the States Of the Ameri-
can Union Such concessions would be as
consistent with tho system Of limited
monarchy as with that of republicanism.
Besides. Ireland is more prosperous and
contented now than she has been for many
years. The drain consequent on large
emigration has ceased, and the population
is now on the increase, as the following
table, compiled by writer in the Catholic
World will show
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1878-03-21

England is in danger. An amazing and
unreasonable peril lungs over her and may
fall at any moment, and ii it does it will
explode and England will have to be gath
cred up with a shovel. There is nitro
olycerine in the Dir, dynamite in the wind
and fusel oil everywhere 1t is not the col
lapse in the East that should trouble her
now nor the i'll will of the Russian bear,
nor the cold shoulder of Bismarck. These
are trivialities. Her danger is more imme-
diate and fearful. 1t is the fact that there
are fifty thousand dollars in the slsirmish-
ing fund, and that this is to be Immediately
used to make war on her and
to crush her so that her grand
mother wouldn't know her. Her cities are
to be blown to shards with ounce cart
ridges and her domes are to be busted down
by the gentle hands of Irish patriots. This
is to be done by way of q divarshun, in Or
der to turn attention away from Ireland
while Ireland rises and drives out the Brit
ish constable who keeps her down. This is
the plan. Fifty thousand dollars is great
deal Of money-quite enough to carry on o
war and to make all the war the skirmishers
want. AS to England, we give her up to
them. We fully agree that they shall crush
her, put her through a quartz machine, II
they like, or o rolling machine They may
reduce her to o solution, evaporate her,

These figures indicate in unmistakable
language the improved condition of Ire
land. Let her people at home and abroad
Danish those embittered and meaningless
quarrels which are of the past, and the
curse that has been on the land will be
lifted from it. The regeneration of Ire
land must come through peace, education,
enlightenment and liberality, and such in
cendiaries as Rosa and his associates ct
home and abroad are now the greatest OBJ
stacle in it's Way.

cham pioning the Pablic Parks and
Squares.


Mr.. Aston yesterday introduced q bill in
the Assembly to provide for the removal Of
the Forty-second street reservoir and the
conversion Of the site into public park.
This will give the people of the locality
fine park covering the entire area between
Fifth and Sixth avenues and Fortieth and
Forty-second streets, and by the addition it
will make to the value of the adjacent prop
erty will prove more profitable to the tax
payers than the most advantageous sale that
could be effected. 1t will besides be a fine
pleasure resort for the people at large and
can be made exceedingly attractive
and ornamental at comparatively trifling
cost We are glad to find Mr..
Astor thus disposed to give the city
new breathing places, and we count
on his powerful aid in preventing the de-
struction of Washington Square. 1t would
be just as outrageous to confscate that fine
square for armory purposes rs to have
placed On armory on the site of the con-
demned reservoir. Indeed, Washington
Square can less be spared than the Reservoir
Park, for the reason that it is at greater
distance from the Central Park and is used
by those by whom fresh air and the grateful
shade of green trees are more needed than by
the residents on Fifth avenue and the adj
jacent streets. Mr.. Aston will deserve the
gratitude of the public if he will stand up
in the Legislature as tho champion Of the
peoples pleasure grounds and resist all at
tempts to confscate and destroy any of them.

The International walking Match

According to our cable dispatches the
keenest interest is felt in London in the
great international pedestrian contest Sir
John Ashley originated the idea, and the
crowds Of enthusiastic spectators who
throng the building where the match is in
progress show that he has succeeded in
creating at least o first class sensation. The
contest will last six days, and, as it began
on Monday, the race this morning is exactly
half finished. Under even ordinary cir
cumstances the result of walking match
is as doubtful as that Of horse race. No
one can tell the winner until the judges
stand has been passed. But the present
walking contest in England is very far from
being an ordinary one. The best pedes-
TRANS probably in theworld are competing,
and the strain upon their physical endur-
ance is exceedingly severe. Our chief in
terest in the match lies Of course in tn
fact that we are represented at it by
O'Leary, who thus far is ahead. At mid
night last night he was thirteen miles ahead
of Vaughn and sixteen miles ahead of
Brown. All the others seem to have fallen
out, and if accidents, which occur in
walking matches as well as in well ordered
families, can be prevented, it is certain
that O'Leary will give good account of
himself, if he does not win the race. The
latter event is not ut all improbable, but it
is too early to speak with certainty on the
euhiect
