THE IRISH QUESTION.

Washington. Jan. lO.-Mr. Barrow.,
United States consul At Dublin. transmits a
long report on the Ulster tenant right Gus.
TOMS" He compares the Jeriey islands
with Ireland and says: In the former,
production is evoked 10 the fur,herest limit.
There is a universal spirit Of thrift and in.
iustry and contentment in the highee,
degree and the rights of property never
questioned. In ireland We find a low state
Il production, discomfort and a lack of in.
dua,ry and thrift.
This contrast is due to the very limited
ownership Of land in Ireland. For cen,u.
ries the Law and customs hsve tended tc
discourage the existence Of the numerous
proprietary in Ireland, aud to accumulate
lands in the hands Of a few. The cost o.
emigration, instead Of being borne BY the
British government, is really drawn from
the Irish laborers in America. Who 10 TWEEN.

vertise forthwith for bids and to begin the con-
struction without delay. The design adopted
consists of a series Of square prisms, one above
another, with differing height and dimen-
sons-the last having an altitude of about
twenty feet. On the top Of this is placed
figure in bronze, ofheroic size representing the
frontier rifeman of the period, in the act of
reloading his fint-lock rifle. The bent brow,
expanded nostril, the stern, scornful, compress
ed mouth, and the action and energy Of the
poise, fitly symbolic the spirit that wrested
victory from discipline and bayonets on Kings
Mountain one hundred years ago. The whole
monument, when completed, will be about
thirty-fve feet in height, and will be plainly
visible from Kings Mountain Station and
other points of the Airline Railroad A res
olution was adopted inviting the Grand Mas
ter Of South Carolina, assisted by the Grand
Masters of North Carolina, Tennessee and
Virginia, to lay the cornerstone of the monu-
ment with appropriate Masonic ceremonies
as soon as the foundation can be properly pre-
pared. This will probably be done on the 23d
of June. What say our friends of Cleveland
and upper York to picnic or barbecue on
that occasion2 1t would be pleasant fore
taste Of the august ceremonies of the 7th of
October.
Resolutions were also unanimously adopted
thanking the G. & A.. Airline and the Ches
ter & Lenoir N. G. Railroads, for courtesies
extended to the members of the Association
and to the citizens Of Spartanburg, whose
hearty hospitality claimed them as guests
The next meeting will be held in Charlotte
at 10 A. NJ, on the 22nd of June, at which
time and place the commissioners appointed
by the Governors of Tennessee, North Caroli-
ma, South Carolina and Virginia, will assem-
BILE, and the details of the coming event will
be more fully developed.

South Carolina, June Alabama, Mississip-

and Kentucky, June II.
- In the Senate of the New York Assem-
bly, last Friday, Mr.. Jacobs, Democrat, intro
duced a resolution declaring the sense of that
body that no person should be considered
eligible for the Office of President for third
term. After an animated discussion, it was
tabled by vote of 18 to 7.
A large and enthusiastic meeting was
held at Winchester, Va, on the 9th, for the
purpose of reuniting the Democracy of the
State which has recently been divided on the
question of adjusting the Indebtedness of the
State Speeches were made by Senator Voor-
hees and Gordon, and other prominent gen.
tlemen.
- Thurman, of Ohio, is still the most popu.
lar candidate for President among the Demo-
ocrats of his own State. Eighty seven of the
eighty eight counties have elected delegates to
the Democratic State Convention. Of these
eighty: one are solid for him and six scatter
ing. The State Democratic Convention of
Ohio, last Thursday, adopted resolution en-
dorsing Thurman for the Presidency.
The Maryland Republican Convention
adopted, by vote of 81 to IA, resolution in
structing the delegates from that State to the
Chicago Convention to use all honorable
means to secure the nomination of Hon.
James G. Blaine for President. A resolution
expressing unalterable opposition to the nom
ination for the Presidency of any person for
the third term, was laid on the table by a
vote Of 81 to 81.
- The Baltimore Sun says that the Grant
managers about Washington are somewhat
worried at the unmistakable signs of revolt
in both the New York and Pennsylvania DEL
egations to Chicago. Although the effort has
been made to keep it secret, it is known that
large minority Of the Pennsylvania delega-
ton have signed paper binding themselves
under no circumstances to vote for Grant, not
even on the first ballot. This destroys all
hope of solid vote from Pennsylvania for
Grant. On top of this comes the news from
New York that several of the leading men,
bers of the delegation to Chicago from that
State have for week past been proclaiming
around the New York hotels that they are
tired of wearing Conkling's collar, and that
they do not intend to vote for Grant.

KINGS MOUNTAIN CENTENNIAL.


The various committees of the Association,
organized to arrange for celebrating in be-
coming manner the remarkable battle at
Kings Mountain, held one of their most i'm
portant meetings, at Spartanburg, on Wednes-
day, the 5th instant. The meeting was quite
full one, consisting of representatives from
Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina,
all of whom manifested degree of enthusiasm
in the work they have undertaken that gives
assurance of complete success.
The committee appointed to correspond with
the orator elected at previous meeting-Col.
John w. Daniels, of Lynchburg, Va.-an-
nounced that he had accepted the distinguished
duty imposed on him. Col. Daniels is one Of
the most brilliant men of the ''Old Common
wealth." and his reputation as an orator gives
the promise of an effort that will take high
rank among the classics of the English IAN
guage.
The chairman of the committee on ways
and means, reported that perfect titles to the
land covering the site of the battlefield and
amounting to 39t acres, had been secured by
purchase and vested in the Governors of the
two Carolinas and certain members of the as
aOoiatiOp, as trustees.
The report Of the committee on monument
was then taken up, and after full discussion,
one of the designs submitted was unanimously
adopted, and the committee instructed to ad-
