election, and no subsequent Congress has
the power to revise the action thus taken,
nor can Congress confer upon any other
tribunal to reopen the questions which
have thus been settled

all his astronomical sermons.

Lord Beaconsleld is preparing great sur
prise will not be disappointed. The coup
may bring him much popularity, but it will

bility. The control of reform in Asia Minor
and the maintenance of the freedom Of
Constantinople will be undertakenby Great
Britain, while European Turkey will be left
to the control of the States whose special
interests are there to satisfy Austria The
question Of indemnity will be one of the
chief difficulties of the Congress.

does not intend to make stand against a

tiles about Batoum are opposed to annexa-
ton to Russia.

AN IRISHMAN'S VIEWS ON KITTRELL

The Esmeralda Herr'M contains the follow
ing sharp and sensible letter from an Irish
man to his fellow countrymen. 1t is worth
one while to read it
Show lie an Irishman who is Republi-
can and | will show you something rotten in
Denmark q. - Extract from Mr. kittrell S
speech delivered at Aurora
The above is sample Of Mr.. Kittrells
rhetoric and eloquent language, is it As an
Irish Republican l brand the author as an
untrue citizen; man dangerous to the wei
fare of the State, and chronic office seeker,
with less honesty and patriotism in his shall
low heart than polish in his manners. The
brutality of his language is equalled by his
lmpudence i'll deliberately insulting every
American citizen. feel surprised that my
fellow Irish Americans have let this indignity
pass unchallenged. If anything be ''rotten
i'll Denmark" it is the heart of this self
expatriated native. BY what right has this
imam without a country" to come before a
free and enlightened people and ask of them
their suffrage | denounce this demagogue
without modification, and call Oh him to re
move himself from among honest men. Go
and learn, if you can, the characteristics OF a
gentleman before seeking one of the most
honOred and responsible offices IN this State.
The peoples gift will be bestowed on tried
and faithful citizens, not on political mOunte-
banks who have the effrontery to speak con-
temptuously of their peers. Every Irishman,
be he Democrat or Republican, who tamely
bears this insult deserves the scorn of honor
able men. A soldier of the Iron Brigade
calls on you to manfully wipe out this shys-
ter. He has no regard for you. His utter
ances convict him of falsity A man who
will desert his country at the time of its
peril will abandon friend when an oppor-
tunity for self-exaltation presents itself. If
you do not care to vote for Mr. Murphy at
the looming election show your unqualified
disdain for this trickster by ignoring his
name on the ticket thus covering him with
his own baseness. We Irish Republicans pay
our taxes, Mr.. kittrell, and have done so
without avoidance, and it is quite out of place
for you, of all the candidates standing, to as
sert that there is rottennesa in the hearts of
those who support the government, which
they fought to maintain. and when again you
attempt to SANDER loyal citizens be careful
not to expose your whited sepulcher.

PLATFORM AND RESOLUTIONS OF THE CITIZENS
PARTY OF ORMSBI COUNTY.
We, the citizens of Ormsby County. adopt
the following the platform on which, with
out distinction OF party, we propose to make
the ensuing canvass.
1st.-We are opposed to any repeal, mod
iication or change of the law taxing the net
proceeds of the mines
2nd-We arraign the transcontinentaL
railroads for their un just and oppressive dis
ordinations i'll the matter of freights and
fares to and between points in this State, and
we demand prompt legislation by Congress
and the State Legislature for the correction Of
those abuses.
3rd.-That the General Government should
Immediately take such steps as to absolutely
stop the further immigration of Asatics to our
country; and that such ust and peaceful
measures should be adopted may be appro-
pirate and necessary to induce those already
among US to quit our shores at the earliest
practical moment.
4th.-We repudiate and denounce the doc
trne that any public officer may disregard and
ignore the pledges made to his constituents
and on the faith of which he was elected; and
declare that if such practice be tolerated. it
will result in the destruction of representative
democratic government; and we declare that
no power exists which can relieve officials from
pledges made to the people previous to their
election.
h-That we view with alarm the increas-
ing and unceasing attempts of the moneyeG
powers of the Pacific States to control the cleo
lions and shape the legislation of said States
that the principle and practice are fraugh1
with danger to our Republican government,
and should be frowned down and resisted by
every individual who has at heart the welfare
Of American institutions and the freedom OF
the masses.
6th,-Resolred, That the stock brokerage,
business should be regulated by law and the
security of the people be protected by proper
legislative enactment.

THE ILLUSTRATED AUSTRALIAN
NEWS

w. have received, through the courtesy of
M G. c. Leyey, Secretary III charge, a copy
of the illustrated Australian News. 1t is a
very handsome sheet of Is pages, containing
q series of engravings representing the mere
important buildings of Melbourne, and other
towns of Victoria, Aus. also a view of the de-
sgn accepted for the International Exhibition
building, to be ready iii 1880. The reading
matter embraces a very interesting account of
the early settlement of the Colony, It's Insti
tutions, resources, and other advantages which
it oAers to colonists. 1t claims that the eli
mate is the mildest and most equable of any of
the Australian generally speaking
that it assimilates to Southern Europe, espec-
tally to that part bordering on the shore of
Mediterranean Sea; that it does not suffer
from fogs, and that the dreaded hot winds,
al5hou 5h occasionally damaging to vegetation
and fruit, and bad for invalids and children,
are, on the whole, conducive to health, as
they destroy organic germs, which are admit
ted to be the source of epidemic disease.
In 1877 the population numbered 849,O31-
4jO,ql7 males and 33S, ia females About
six -sevenths of the area of Victoria is included
within municipal districts, and about thirty
nine fortieths of the inhabitants enjoy the
advantages Of local self-governmsnt.

THE CITY OF LONDON.

OF ali the great cities London, on the whole,
contains the most to interest and instruct
Americans Its mere growth is marvellous
1t has doubled in population in the memory
of men still young. Most of readers remen-
Der when Macaulays History appeared In
his first volume the author contrasted the
grandeur of the modern city with the London
Of Charles H., and boosted that the number
Of inhabitants had increased from little more
than 100000 to at least nineteen hundred
Thousand. In the brief time that has passed
since Macaulay wrote, the one million nine
hundred thousand has become four millions.
4 few contrasts taken from the best estimates
will give some suggestions of the immense
magnitude of the city; 1t is aptly described
as province covered with houses. New
York is equal in population to the aggregate
Of Maine and New Hampshire. London
eoHals Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts
and California, all together, To equal the
city Of London here, we should have to bring
together the people of the following cities
New York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, st. Louis,
Chicago, Boston, Baltimore, Cincinnati, New
Orleans, Buffalo, San Francisco, Washington
and Louisville. The trancient people i'll New
York are about thirty thousand; in London
one hundred and sixty thousand In New
York babe is born every fifteen minutes and
a death occurs once in seventeen minutes.
In London a birth occurs every six minutes
and death every eight. The drinking places
III New York set III one street would extend
seventeen miles; those III London seventy
three miles. The hugeness of London makes
it an uninspectable labyrinth to the majority
of visitors.
