recently returned South African traveller,
Sig Sesrpaueri, writes that one of tho most
striking things connected with the lion IL his
extremely grand voice. It consists at times Of
q low, deep, moaning, repeated five or six times,
ending in fsiutly audible sighs; at other times
he startles the forest with loud, deep-toned,
solemn roars, each increasing in loudneas until
his voice dies away in several low, mnG cd in
donations, resembling distant thunder. Not
unfrequently q troop may be heard rearing in
concert, one assuming the lead, and two three,
or four more regularly taking mp their parte,
like persons singing q catch. Like Scottish
ssags at the ruttlng season, they roar loudest
on cold, frosty nights bat on no occasion are
their voices to be heard IN such perfection,
go intenee1y powerful, as when Two or three
strange troo ps of lions approach a fountain to
drink at the came time. When this occurs,
every member of each troop sounds Id roar
OF defiance at the enemy and when one rosrs
all roar together. The grandeur of these noc-
turnal forest cor rte is inconceivsbly pleasing
to the hunters ear, and the effect is largely
enhanced when the hearer is in the depths Of
the forest, at midnight, unscoompanied by any
attendant and enBooned within twenty yards
of the fountain which the troop of lions are
approaching. Such, Sig Sosrpsueri says, has
been his situ alton scores of times, and though
he has q tolerably good taste for music, he con-
sdered the catches with which he was then
regaled as the sweetest and most natural he
had ever heard.

Another monument was lately erected to
the memory of the Very Rev. DR.. Fogsrty,
long parish priest of Lismore. 1t is a
beautiful Celtic CROSS, of pure Sicilian
marble, and stands over his remains in the
chapel yard at Lismore. 1t is Is feet in
height, and bears q figure of the crucifxion
two aud a half feet in length by proper
tionate width. On either side Of the cruci-
ixion are elaborately wrought bases of
Celtic ornament, and, above the whole, q
beautifully carved dove. The plinth bears
the following scription:-"At the foot of
this crose, q memorial from a grateful flock,
repose the remains of the Very Rev. Pat
rick Fogarty, PIP, VT, who for twenty
eight years zealously and piously ruled the
united parishes of Lismore and Ballyduff,
and at his death bequeathed all his worldly
property to the establishment ofathe Chris
tian Brothers' Schools in Lismore. To bis
exertions, also, lie mainly attributable the
founding of the Cistercian Monastery at
Mellary, in this neighborhood, after the
expulsion of the Irish monks from France.
He died on the 90 h of July, 1866 ,aged rs
years. Rip" The cross is the largest
of it's kind ever executed in this country,
and the crucifixion aud dove which it bears
are unusually we'll wrought, and are artistic
pieces of sculpture.

Scripture to o natural day. The Ssh verse Of
the Let chapter of Genesis expressly says that

no distinction is made between the days Of
creation and the Sabbath day and as the

DREADFTL FACTION FIGHT IN LIMERICK.
A telegram in the Dublin Freeman, dated
Limerick, July 9th, says:
Perhaps the most shocking faction fight
that has occurred within the memory of
living man took place last night at Gorts-
valla, between Pallas and Doom. Since
the time of Conway's homicide at the came
place, and the extermination of his slayers,
great animosity has prevailed between the
"Three and Four Year Olds." The last
holiday they met after drinking in public
house, when what is known as "the Carly
faction" got the worst of the affray, aud
they vowed vengeance against their antag-
Onists, the Maddens, relations of Conway,
who had been killed by the Cartys and
Ryans. On Sunday the Maddens were
fishing in river, and trespassed on Carty's
land, when they were hunted off, and
afterwards a colt of one of the Carty's was
found straying on Madden's land, and
driven OF to the owners ground. Recrim-
nations followed and mutual challenges
made and accepted to meet at Gortavalla
or Clonturk, where Conway was killed
come years ago. They met, to the number
of ak or seven on each side, armed with
sticks, stones, knives, resping hooks, aud
iron bars. A murderous conflict took place
and went on for hours with extraordinary
determination. The Cartys, powerful
men, drove their opponents into the house

The Summer assizes have been opened
during the week in Meath, Longford,
Drogheda, Dundalk Loutb), North Tip
perary, and Leitrim, and in all these places
both the calenders and the police reports
have afforded the judges ample grounds
for coDgratulating the various grand jeries
on the state of their respective districts.
We are confident that equally favorable
accounts will be forthcoming from most of
the other places on the four circuits.

cess of grinding -four, and, by simple In

seemingly, this is just the beginning of what
he is to make. The secret is in the dressing

DECORATION DAY.

There was very creditable display made
yesterday by the military in their street
parade, and the ceremony of decorating the
graves was impressive. Appropos of the
subject we copy part of on excellent article
from the Philadelphia Evening Telegraph
"At the risk of wounding those who hold
BY the present mode of professions and
flower, bringings it must be said that we
could put this day to much better pur-
pose, could make it a more practical me-
d.um of hanks and praise, and could put
the honors We all desire to render in much
more enduring and unseldsh form. The
truest homage we could give our dead eol-
diers would be by administering to the ne>
cessities of survivors, ,bV seeing that soldiers
dependents shall not come to want, and by
aiding and comforting their crippled COM
rades In arms. Much has been done IL this
direction, but great deal more might be
done If the sum of the enthusiasm, energy
and money expenditures noted to>day all
over the country in the ceremonies attend
ing the decoration of graves could be Gems
tered In a scheme of charity for disabled
soldiers and sailors, and for the poverty
81 iricken families of the dead, 1t would te
worthy expression of praise and thanks
giving" Rejecting upon the extent Of yes
terday's observance, we will see that this
proposition has real signifcance' The
money spent for flowers, music decorations,
cress, conveyance, ets., will aggregate a
very large sum, and to that amount we are
to add the wages of the thousands of me-
chanics who will take the day from theiI
work. The rfower,bringing festival will
cost, in one. way or another, hundreds of
thousands - possibly millions-of dollars, for
what is after all but sentiment, unattend>
ed by any lasting good. In effect, as now
spent, the money is wasted,-while under
more reasonable system 1t might be product
i've of incalculable beueft. In this time of
exceptional privation and distress the view
we urge has special force; while the ceme~
teries we're balmy with their floral tributes
the families of many of the poor fellows so
hopored are hidden In their wretchedness in
courts and by-ways, not only without spirit
to join the joyful professions, but not knows
ing where they are to turn for the next meal
The money laylshcd far and near with SO
generous q hand upon mere ceremonial
would make the hearts of these forlorn
creatures glad, and would give them d new
start In life. There is no end to the good
is no end to the good that would result If
The energy. 40 fully. exerted could be. turned
