A CURIOUS ASSAULT.

The telegraph has informed US that a
train load of Irish emigrants, on their way
from Kerry to Cork, were furiously at
tackled by five hundred Of the South Cork
militia, and that free fight ensued in
which the emigrants were roughly handled;
but it has not vouchsafed single word
concerning the origin of the attack. What
was the fault of these harmless Kerry emf
grants, in the eyes of the South Cork mill
It's? Did the latter resent their emigra-
tion as in some way reflection upon old
Ireland Did they consider that the Kerry
people were interlopers or trespassers !:
Or was there some theological or sectional
grudge existing, to give impetus to the
downstroke of the shiIlalah Certainly
the genuine Irish row is a mysterious and
a wonderful thing. 1t is developed I'M
der the most incomprehensible circum-
stances, and it seems to require no such
rational beginnings as are needed for seri-
GUS quarrels elsewhere.

TIE LOUISIANA REPUBLICANS.

The bolt from the Louisiana Republican
Convention, organized and led by Pinch
beck, appears to have been deliberate
and shameless response to dispatch from
Logan, advising such a course and guaran-
teeing the admission of the boilers to the
Chicago Convention. 1t is very necessary
to make the meaning OF all this clear. The
fact has developed itself that the machine
men could not control the Louisiana State
Convention for Grant Sherman had half,
or more than nall, the available strength,
and Blaine also had some friends. But it
was considered indispensable that solid
Grant delegation should be obtained by
hook or by crook, and so Logan advises
his henchman Pinchbeck to make bolt
without rhyme or reason, and to reorgan-
ize, ana appoint solid Grant delegation.
The plain tact of the case Is that Louisiana
cannot be had for Grant, but that the
Grant managers are determined to steal
the State, if that be possible; and in order
to do this they have deliberately violated
and outraged every principle of honorable
politics, and have undertaken to usurp
an authority never delegated to them.
Finding that they are in a minority in the
State Convention, they bolt, and the bolt
ers, following the example of the Illinois
machine men, pretend to be the real Simon

THE TARIFF BILL.

Mr.. Garfield has presented minority
report upon the tariff bill. 1t is signed
by himself, Kelly, Conger and Frye, and
recommends the adoption of Senator
Eatons bill, providing for Commission
20 revise the tariff, as a substitute for the
pending tariff bill. 1t is scarcely possible
TO miss the meaning of this report. Mr..
Garfield's connection with it shows that
It's main purpose is to postpone action in
the direction of the remission of onerous
duties, while the names of Kelly and Con-
ger serve to emphasize the Protectionist
character of the movement. It is tolera-
bly, certain that the kind of Commission
that Mr.. Garfield and his friends would
favor is one of those peculiar Congressional
bodies which travel over the country, sit
of and on for a year or so, and then pre-
sent voluminous report composed of a
great mass of undigested and crude mate
rial, unaccompanied by any recommends
tions calculated to serve as the basis for
intelligent legislation. 1t must, however,
be recognized that there is little or no
hope of getting anything done in the
way OF tariff modification at this session.
Congress is so absorbed in Presi-
dent-making that it cannot find time
for commonplace legislation, and besides,
both parties are equally afraid of making
fresh enemies by taking any pronounced
steps. It might seem any thing but polite
to defy the protests and exhibits of the en-
tire press of the country regarding the
tariff upon printing paper, but apparently
Congress does not care enough for the press
to desire to have its good will or it is
making TOO much ont of the pulp business
referred to by us recently, to be willing to
forego its perquisites. Whatever the cause
of its Indifference, however, it is evident
that it cannot be got to reform the tariff at
this session, and this being the outlook it
might be good policy for the friends of re-
vision to accept MIR. Garfield's suggestion,
and endeavor to obtain the appointment OF
the latter may do very little good, it is
also possible, by iudicious and persevering
action, to compel it to show up the abuse:
and iniquities of the tariff And il
the full history of that abomination
IS once laid before the country faithfully,
we shall have 10 fears as to the success OF
tariff revision, despite all that the Protec-
tiOnists can do to prevent remedial legisla.
ton. If there appeared any prospect OF
passing the bill now pending we shoald OF
course prefer that, since it would afford
immediate relief to several industries which
have been sore bestead, and since it would
enable the public to realize the advantages
Of free trade on a small scale. Failing all
hope or prospect OF that. however, we
think Commission should be accepted as
the next best thing. It is certainly better
than letting the whole question go by the
board, and having to begin over again at
the BEGINNING next session

AN IMPORTANT INQUIRY.

Representative Davis has introduced a
resolution directing the Secretary of the
Treasury to report to the House "what
"causes, if any, are tending to diminish
the tidal area of the bay of San Fran
cisco, and what action, if any, has been
"taken by the Government of the United
Estates, of the State of California, or by
corporations or individuals, which will
tend to lessen the tidal scour ON the bar
of San Francisco, and thereby decrease
"the depth of water on said bar, and
diminish the value of San Francisco as Il
commercial harbor." This inquiry, of
course, opens Up the whole question of the
action of debris from the mines upon
the harbor, and at the same time makes an
opening for the examination of variou7
local problems which have hitherto been
discussed without much scientific data to
90 upon. 1t would be impossible to
answer the questions here put without az
exhaustive examination OF the debris ques-
ton, in the first place, and though it is
true that Congress has before it sufficient
facts in that connection to justify action,
it is reasonable to suppose that The
demonstration of serious danger to the
harbor of San Francisco is more likely t.
| procure such action than any other argu
ment which can be used.

of whom he was jealous. A letter from
the alleged rival to Mrs. Arnold was found
on the floor of the room. Having shot her,
Garnsey shot himself. and then chased the
wounded woman to the kitchen, whittier
she had fed, and attempted to fire at her
again. His weapon missed fire, when
Charles Baird, an elderly gentleman in the
room, attempted to disarm him. Garnsey
then shot at him, but missed. Two charges
OF assault to murder were booked against
Garnsey, and in the Police Court to-day
the cases were continued to June Sth.

Pures. If Logan can secure the admission
of the boiling and spurious Louisiana dele
cation at Chicago, we shall be willing to
admit that nothing can prevent the nomi-
nation of Grant by that body. This, how
ever, is by no means a foregone conclusion,
for it has yet to be proved whether Logan's
own bolters will make good their creden-
tials there. The resort to these dishonest
methods, however, shows the despera-
ton and recklessness of the machine man
ayers, and cannot but increase the appre-
tensions which all sober minded must feel
as to the effect upon the party of nomi-
nation secured in so tricky and unpopular
a way. It is not thus that the advent of a
"peopIes choice should be heralded.

character of the evidence which SHIN
minis is prepared to give is said to be what
the police newspapers call "spicy,
'piquant. etc. 1t is, in word, a scan
dalous chronicle which he is DESTROYS of
publishing, and the probability is that it
will add another layer of nastiness to the
mass that has already been gathered
about this subject.

TIE GREAT AMERICAN TUMBLgR

1t is difficult for those who have not
been reading the New York Herald of late
to realize the full absurdity Of its recent
sudden change of face, but the case is so
monstrous and gross an one that we can
not resist the temptation to fix it in the
memories of our readers, as shocking ex-
ample of what journalism may come to. To
Illustrate the nature and scope of the
g flop }" we will quote from its leading arti-
Gle of the 18th instant, just five days be-
fore it turned its famous somersauIt. 1t
was then endeaYoring to get up a g boom 3"
for Hamilton Fish, and to that end it was
striving to persuade Grant that he ought to
withdraw. And this is the way it pro-
| ceeded: He may have fancied that the
people wanted him in the Executive
&c chair again but if so he has had a dis
agreeable awakening from what was per-
haps pardonable delusion. The people
% do not want him even the greater num-
Der Of the politicians of his party have
C come to look upon his possible nomina-
g ton with apprehension and dismay. The
"plain fact, which he ought to see, and
(which so clear-beaded a man as he
is cannot help but see, is that he
els not needed, and he is not
wanted His denomination can be
g brought about only by suppress
Ting and violating the wishes of
the majority of Republican voters and
there is no longer any doubt that his
nomination will bring crushing defeat
1" on his party" The Herald ended its ar
ticle by saying eve hope that during
the present week he will do himself
"and his party the justice to Withdraw
81 from the canvass" Five days after this.
nothing having occurred in the interval
to modify the conclusions to which the
Herald had previously committed itself, it
suddenly abandons its former position, and
gravely announces that Grant lis the only
q fit candidate for the party" This amaz-
ing change of base was due to neither more
nor less than Logans political burglary at
Springfield piece of INSCRIPTIONS tao
tics certain to result in u divided delega-
ton, and which there never could have
been any reason to suppose the Chicago
Convention would indorse or condone. A
more preposterous and irrational flop,
therefore, was never perpetrated. 1t was
not justified by the facts. 1t was not pol
itic. 1t was not a reflection of any change
in public opinion. 1t was, in short, nothing
more than clumsy and unnecessary adver-
tisement of the HeraFs absolute indie
pendence of all principles, and its freedom
from rational trammels of every kind.

WHERE THE CokD WAVES CONE FROM.
Meteorological observations have now be-
come so extended that evidence is rapidly
accommodating to enable us to determine
positively the source of the cold erial
waves which sweep across our country dur
ing the winter season. The indications are
that We owe them to the great area of high
barometer in northeastern Siberia, where
the pressure sometimes exceeds 81. so
inches, and the temperature falls as low as
rs degrees below zero. The pole of great
est cold is in the neighborhood of Yokutsk,
on the Lena, where the average thermome-
trio reading in January is II degrees below
zero, and where the severest cold exceeds
by 10 degrees that experienced by explo-
rers in high Arctic regions. This is also
the region OF the highest barometric press
ure known in winter and from it, doubt
less, proceed the waves of intense cold
which play so large part in our winter
experience. Scientific Canadian.
