ont ireland. 1t is computed that over SOC, 900
people in the island are destitute. and need aid
to keep them from starving. America is fur
nishing the bulk Of this aid, as usual. English
landlords impoverish the Irish people, and Amer

Of the whole world. But-pity that We should
have to use that word but-but these same Irish
people, after they are fed and are furnished the
means to come to America, will be found the
very foremost in opposing those who are still
more friendless, and trying to prevent them
from earning bare livelihood. They will be
found in the front rank driving out the Chinese,
and in mobbing and driving back the negroes
who are fleeing from Southern oppression

Corporal Blanks Little Story.

Shortly after the civil war had ended,
o rustic in army blue, with musket,
stopped on his homeward way at our
house. That faded dingy blue was the
most interesting color in the world then,
and the veriest ne'er-do-well in the
village was a hero, and as this soldier,
scarcely more than boy, ate his dinner,
we felt grateful to him. He had a
simple, narrow mind, which all bis ex-
periences of camp and field had not
deeply impressed. Presently he said
he'd got somethin' he didn't know but
we'd like to see, and pulled out of
breast pocket leather case which he
opened, disclosing large bronze medal

effect that the Congress of the United
States presented this medal to Corporal

course, he had to tell the story, some

AlfOnsO's Second Love.

The Paris Figaro and Vienna Tag
blatt publish simultaneously, and by
agreement between the two journals,
a conversation with King Alfonso
touching the causes which led him

Christine, after having most sim
cerely thought he should wear per-
petual mourning for his first wife.
ri had,' said the King, entered
my whole past in the grave of Mer-
cedes. From my earliest youth she
was my only thought. Her image
was ever present in my mind, when
l passed my examination at the
Vienna Theresianum, amid my COM
rades at the military school in Eng
land, in nay study, and in the battle
lines of Lacar. 1t was against the
wish of her family and mine, against
the advice of President Canovas, and
against public opinion, which dis
likes the Montpensier family, that /
succeeded in making her my wife. l
loved her as kings rarely do, and I
lived with her like the most affec-
tionate burgeois. We were never
apart. We shared alike work, pleas
ure and danger. Whenever l went
out shooting by myself I brought
her home my bag. I told her before
hand whatever I meant to say in
public speeches. She took deep in
terest in everything l did, every
thing l said, and everything l at
tempted. When she died, desired
nothing so much as to die myself
For two months 1 shut up in the
Escurial, not, as has been stated, to
addict myself to ascetic practices,
like Philip H., for l am no bigot, but
TO weep over Mercedes coffin. After
that l sought amusements to drown
my grief, but l ultimately found this
existence would not do. Now that
l am promised the hand of the Arch
duchess Christine, feel that 1 am
born to new life, and that / may
yet again be happy. It is not for
me, who loves the Archduchess, to
make general reflections as to the |
best sort of women. The Arch |
duchess unites all the qualities of the |
best types of the Viennese, for
which have much sympathy. Her
character is frank, her temperament
gay. She is resolute," (here the
King left off speaking French, and
in Germany 'sshe is made |
to insure the happiness Of a man
worn out y anxiety and receptions,
who yearns for recreation at his own
hearth, and | am sure she will find |
in Madrid the same sympathy which
she commanded in Vienna"
'.Trust boy" says an exchange. Ger
tainly: trust him when he catches you
coming out of saloon not to tell his |
sister, whom You are sweet upon, trust
him to discover the size of your feet and |
mention it before company, trust him to
find the cigar you deposit in the dark
nook on the porch before you enter the
house; trust him to manufacture misery
out of bent pins and tarred front gates.
Trust him, Of course, but the best way is
to operate on the cash system, and pay
him in advance.

The first national census since the con-
solidation of the country as an empire,
was taken in 1876. It was remarka-
bly, quick and accurate piece of work,
and no other national census in any
country, was probably ever accom-
plished at such little expense, for the
peculiar feature was that the enumera-
ton was entirely done by volunteers;
the teachers in the public schools and
the advanced pupils in the higher schools,
corresponding to our high and Latin
schools, and, in the University towns,
such students as offered their services.

NORTHERN Pacific RAILROAD There
axe numerous indications pointing to the
TACT that the present n +. K. r. Co. are

project, conducting the affairs OF the cons
pany in the Interest OF the railroad. and
not, as heretofore, in the interest of a
ring tor the purpose of private specula-
ton IN town site property and mineral
lands. The appointment OF Capt. Isaac
w. Smith as chief engineer of this end
of the line, with instructions to make
surveys solely with reference to finding
the best route across the Cascades and
best terminus upon Puget Sound, with
out regard to any locations heretofore
made, Is the best assurance that We have
vet had OF hottest intentions. Captain
Smiths character is guarantee to all
who know him that he cannot be swerved
from the line OF strict integrity by eny
personal considerations, or he made the
instrument OF any utelior designs What.
ever his conclusions may be, the public
may rest assured they will be the result
"f the most careful and pains taking
application of the higest professional
skill, and not forced at the dictatlen of
private speculation. Capt. Smith has
commenced reconnaissance on the South
TO ascertain the general lay of the land
and the most gradual approaches to the
summit, us well as the lowest elevations
to be overcome, and Will prosecute his
work from thence Northward, taking in
all the routes heretofore suggested and
exploring for Others not yet tested
Whichever route he finds the shortest
and most practicable for an eastern cons
nection, he will certainly recommend to
the company, and that is all that the peo-
pie of Seattle claim. Ii Capt. Smith does
not report in favor of Seattle AS the ter
minus upon Puget Sound his conclusions
will differ from those of any disinter>
ested engineer who has heretofore exam
