Last weeks cviCtions in Ireland
BY her Majcsty'S troops are indeed
sad sights to witness. Near Liner
ick family by the name of Kennedy
with their household goods were
turned out of their home, the door
barred up and the police departed /;
the mother aud six little children
were found either sitting or walking
about the premises of their once
happy home. Night was coming on,
and there was nothing between them
and the blue canopy of heaven, and
nowhere to go, and thus they were
left without ray of hope TO ch.er
them.
A serious riot occurred at Cork
last week. Houses in two streets
were completely wrecked. A large
party of military went to Mitchels-
town to aid in evictions. Five
persons were arrested near Killar-
ney for attacking house and cut
ting off a tenants ear.
At Limerick a very disorderly
scene occurred at the railway sta
ton, the panic-stricken police attack
ing a quiet crowd of people with the
butts of rifles, and afterwards charg-
ing them with fixed bayonets.

Miss FRANCES A. WILLARD, who
recently returned from the South,
where she has been in behalf of the
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, makes good report of the
people there, i'm praise of whom and
of their elegant manners and gener-
Gus hospitality, she is quite enthu-
siastic. In illustration of the will
lingness of the South to take up the
temperance topic with the North,
she recalled the following incident
of the two armies in the Rebellion,
that lay within sound of each other,
on either side of the Rappahannock ::
"The bands of the rival armies
would play their favorite tunes !;
when one would start up the Star
Spangled Banner the other would
play Dixie One day single
trumpeter in the Union army, in a
lull of band practice, started 'Home,
Sweet Home;' one instrument after
another in the Union army took up
the refrain, and finally it leaped the
river, and the Confederate forces
echoed back the music"

REPORTS last week come from
Texas of wind, rain and hailstOrms

ton. The Catholic church and Odd
Fellows hall were totally wrecked.
Nearly all barns and outhouses were

On Wednesday evening the nup-

which inaugurated the erection of
his new dwelling, in other words, a

bountiful repast, consisting of every
delicacy of the season, and at its

A SHOCKING tragedy occurred last
week at the town of Peru, Nemaha
county this state. A man by the
name of Albert Clark with his wife
and five children, and who appeared
to be an emigrant, cut his wife's
throat from ear to ear with a pocket
knife, and then seizing a shot gun,
rushed into the street and shot and
killed E. NJ. Sargent, harness
maker of the town. He then cut
his own throat. 1t is the opinion
of the citizens of Peru that the man
was insane.

THE headless corpse of a man
found in the woods near Chicago
still continues to be mystery. Since
the discovery of the corpse bundle
of clothing, hat and coat were dis
covered, slowed away where the
head was found. The hat and coat
were unusually fine material, but
evidently of foreign manufacture.
The pockets contained the cards of
hotel in Bremen, printed in Ger
man and Bohemian. The identity of
the man is still mystery. Every
thing tends to show thst he was a
newly-arriyed foreigner, and had
been murdered for his money.

For the Journal.
BE Patient.

Friends may mi-understand you,
enemies surround, and misfortune
press hard upon you, till you are
indeed heart sick, if you are
thoughtful and sensitive but be pa
tient, Learing in mind that there is
a certainty of prolonged existence,
that this lie is only the seed time,
that you are travelling towards a
glorious home, a bright place in the
future, and that as you SOW here, so
shall you reap there for God will
not Judge you as man does, by your
seeming absolute excellence, but by
your endeavOrs to obey = for he
knows all the discoursgements and
temptations which surround you.
"There are some men whom God
hath so royalty endowed, that they
are like bird sitting on the top
most branch OF the forest, and if
God says to it mount up it has
nothing to do but to spring into the
air, singing as it goes toward heav-
en-. But others are like a bird on
the ground, that has to disengage
itself from the bushes, and then to
work it's way among the darkling
boughs, before it can soar. The one
may have done better with his out
ward wings, but the better inward
wings of purpose and endeavor,
beat far stronger i'm the other, and
bring him quite as near to God"
Therefore be not discouraged, but
patient, even though you are like
the bird on the ground. Those only
who fight for the right to the last,
are life's best heroes; besides, those
who are not patient and persever-
ing, can accomplish but little good.
"The celebrated Wesley said he re-
membered hearing his father say to
his mother, how could you have the
patience to tell that blockhead the
same thing twenty times overT
Why said she, 'if | had only told
him nineteen times, | should have
lost all my labor"
