A BURST WATER BACK.

During the cold weather, last week,
the water pipes in the City Hospital
frozs, and as . result the water back
in the range bursted. Fortunately no
damage was done, as Mr.. Lee, the
tenant, resides in the other part Of the
building.
Three explosions Of range water
backs occurred in Baltimore, on Sat-
urday, aud one was attended with fa-
tai results, a little girl only TWO years
old being burned and scalded to
death.

OF GENERAL INTEREST.
Irish LandLearper.' Address.

LONDON, November 8.
THE Land-League issued tonight an address
to tho Irish people at home and abroad. The
following are It's chief points:
"Felow-Countrymen and Friends:
"At a crisis OF tremendous importance to
our country we confidently address you. The
British Government OF Ireland, obeyIng tho
dictation of q priviedgcd order of persons, q
cruel and selfish class for centuries past
burden and curse to our land and peoples,
have cast to the winds tho traditions and prin-
ciples of the liberalism to which they profess
to be devoted. They have set in motion the
legal power of the State TO arraign ut the Grim
inal bar the chief man of the Irish race, and
with him others of the most distinguished
laborers in the cause of ireland and
her social regeneration. Although our move
ment is directed against code Of laws so op-
pressive as to paralyze the national industry
of Ireland; although we have been as
sailed with most venomous malignity, an d
pursued with most INSCRIPTIONS falsehoods,
yet we can solemnly declare, in the face of the
civilized world, that all our objects are in keep
ing with perfect justice to all men; that all the
means we employ for the attainment of these
objects are reasonable, peaceable and thor
ouRhly legal, offending in no degree against
the natural right, moral obligation, or intclli-
gent human law"
The address then reviews the work already
accomplished by the League and continues
1--WE never will pause or rest from the labor
VIC have accepted until public action has
wholly swept away the system Of landlordism
which antagonizes our people. This great re-
form will be achieved, not by violence,
threats, the breach of any law, or the evasion
of any duty, but by continuing in that course
which we have hitherto pursued-by teach
ing the people not to become themselves the in
struments Of that dcspotism under which they
have 80 long suffered, and by directing pub
lie opinion against the acts of any person who
willfully damages the interests OF the people.
We therefore appeal to you, fellow-country-
men, friends of public freedom, to create q
national fund, the primary object of which
will be to provide such defense as legal skill
can afford to men who have stood in the van
guard of this movement. All that money can
do will be done to gain victory over the lead
eB Of the Irish people,"

FOREIGN GOSSIP.

PRINCE GoRTsCHAKoFF, who has
been staying at Baden, looks aged and
worn. He walks about a good deal, but
his pace is slow and his gait uncertain.
AT Mormon conferencein in Liverpool
there were 335 members present. 1t
was reported that sixty-eight members
had been received into their ranks
within the last six months.
The Pope has decided to dismiss his
Swiss Guards. 1t may be recollected
that all of the quaint dress of these men
was designed by Michael Angelo
Buonarotti, save the helmet. This, it
appears, he forgot; hence their incon-
gruous appearance.
TURKEY seems to become civilized
pretty fast. The daughter of wealthy
Turk is having her wedding outfit made
in Paris, and part of it is gown of he
liotrope satin with aTcourt train and a
trimming of velvet and point lace, and a
point lace apron and veil.
LEO XIII, has enjoined on the Hun
garian Episcopate to carry out in their
EXTREMIST rigor the canonical regula.
tions respecting mixed marriages. The
Episcopate has consequently addressed
circular to the clergy, forbidding them
to celebrate mixed marriages, even
when the parties agree to bring up their
issue in the Catholic faith. This meas
ure is extremely unpopular among the
Catholics in Hungary.
THE cradle of the infant Princess of
Spain is of polished ebony inlaid with
silver; its form is that of an open shell ;
the curtains are of silver gauze enam
eled with white velvet flowers, the
coverlet of white satin on which are
embroidered in brilliant colors the arms
of Spain. One lady grandesse of Spain
stands at the foot of the cradle during
the royal infants slumber to watch the
precise moment of her awakening an
other grandesse stands at the head
armed with huge feather fan to chase
away the flies. The royal Spanish
crown, which in silver gilt hangs in front
of the cradle, is the work of Froment,
the great Partisan goldsmith. The cost
of the cradle, without the hangings of
fine lace and the garniture of marabout
feathers which surround it, is estimated
at 81 400.

Fearful Fan from a Balloon.

PARIS, France, Nov. 1.
A FRIGHTFUL and probably unprecedented
balloon accident occurred last evening at Caur-
bevoie, near Paris. A large crowd had assem-
bled to witness the novel and porilous ascent
of gymnast called Auguste Navarro, who,
with inexplicable foolhardiness, had volun-
teered to perform a number of athletic feats
on a trapeze suspended from MOntgolher
balloon named the "Nidauvilase." Reject
ing the advice of bystanders, Navarro refused
TO allow himself TO be tied to the trapeze.
There was no car attached 10 the balloon. At
about five O'Clock the "Vidauyillaise" was
let loose from its moorings and rose majestic
ally In the air. Navarro hanging on to the
trapeze, appeared quite confident, and repeat
edly saluted the spectators. When, however,
the balloon had reached a height of l00l yards,
the crowd was horrihed to see him suddenly
let go the bar and fall. The tragic descent was
watched In breathless excitement. At last the
body reached the ground, striking with such
force that il made a hole in the Garth two feet
deep, rebounding four yards. 1t was crushed
and manglod almost beyond recognition.
Meanwhile the balloon, freed from its human
ballast, shot up with lightning speed, and soon
disappeared from sight. Late in the evening
it burst and fell at Menilmontante, much to
the CONSERVATION of the inhabitants of that
busy Partisan quarter.

The National Verdict.

The election on the I'd was an ex-
preston of the National will whose inn
port cannot be mistaken. No man,
Democrat or Republican, whether re-
siding in the Northern or Southern
States, can be so obtuse as to fail in
comprehending the full meaning of the
National verdict. The country has de-
clared with emphatic force that the
Republican party has not forfeited pub
lie confidence, and with equal force
that the Democratic party is as repulsive
to the National mind as it was when
rebellion threatened the integrity of the
Union.
1t had cost too much taxation, and
privatiOn, and precious lives topreserve
the Union against an open and armed
foe to permit all the results of that
struggle to be imperied by committing
the National destinies to the control of
a party dominated by the men who led
the civil war. The Solid South chal-
lenged the Nation, and the Nation re-
spOnded at the polls.
Never at any time in the history of
the Union was there such a period of
general prosperity; never was labor so
remuneratively and generally employees;
never was thrift and industry SO liber-
ally rewarded as at the present time.
1t was an insult to popular intelligence
to demand that, after having carried
the country through civil war, through
years of financial distress and want of
credit, and re-established the Govern
ment politically and financially on an
unexampled plane of prosperity, the
Of Nafinnal af
given over to the men and to the party
in spite of whose labors these grand re-
suits had been accomplished. The de-
mand for a change was peremptorily
made, and that demanded was answered
at the polls by the American people.
The American people showed their full
appreciation of the character Osthe man
who ought to be chosen as the EXecu-
tive of free people. They desired a
statesman Of experience, man of abil-
| ity, scholar, man of refinement and
of high personal character. Such a
man was presented to them in the per-
son of General Garfield. The canvass
since June last has been one of the
vilest detraction. When SANDER and
viliGcation failed, then there was re-
sort to forgery in order to injure him.
To all these calumnies the American
people made answer, and have placed
the brand of dishonor upon the entire
party which employed, approved, or
