THR most horrible utteance ever pro
mulrated in this country Is the recent
proclamation Of the Irish Revolutionary
Convention in New York, which, without
the slightest qualification, declares an in
tention to destroy British vessels wherever
they can he found, and that 1T Is just as
well to begin the work, which Is most easy
Of accomplishment, and by the time q few
hundred English merchant vessels are
destroyed the world may witness the bene-
ticent sight Of all the shipping merchants
and insurance companies Of England pre-
senting petition to Mr.. Gladstone to re-
consider tho Irish question: Thc procia-
nation also deliberately gives notice that
"iiterseptembeF lstitwillb ewell for peace
able people TO avoid patroni1ing ships that
sail under the protection OF the English
flag" The parties most concerned IN TINS
matter owners and agents OF English
steamships, pay little heed to it Ihegen-.
oral agent Of the Cunard line says that
farther than exercising all possible care in
shipping freight 10 detect dynamite, the
company are doing nothing with special
reference to these threats" There Il, how
ever, general impression that our people
ought 10 pay some attention to it Blythe
iist Of September many thousands Of
Americans and millions Of American goods
will be in those threatened, ships, Very
likely the clustering fanatics do not intend
to execute their diabolical threats, butthere
ought to be some means Of Qlietlng the
cruel alarm and anxietythat such dread
iul nenaccs create.

There was scene at Lexington, Kentucky,
q few days ago, which reminded those who
saw it of the old slavery days. Two negroes
had been sentenced to years servitude
apiece for vagrancy, and their labor for that
term was offered for sale. cattle auction
eer was the salesman, and the men were crit
ically examined, with many pokes and pinches,
Just as slaves used to be. The first put up
was fat old fellow, and the bidding ad-
vanced very slowly to 800. 'Bless my soul, -
cried the auctioneer, ''I recollect the time
when he'd bring $500 hale, hearty old
nigger like him. Twenty, twenty, twenty,
any advance on tw. ntyr Go up and exam
inc him, gentlemen. He's able to do good
days work yet, breaking rock or breaking
hemp, or even working on a railroad. Look
how sleek and fat he is. Look at his arms
and legs" He was knocked down to Col,
Craig, railroad contractor, for $34. The
other negro was younger and stronger.
Craig wanted him, but he was bought for
SIP by man who meant to put him
to work at street sprinkling This sale was
the first held under new Kentucky tramp
law.
