point. 1t stated that the committee,
welcomed the newly elected Presi
lent to the capital on behalf of the
citigens of the Nation.
General Garfield's reply was equal
ly brief. He said he was very much
fatigued by his journey, and was not
inclined to indulge in speech. In
an exceedingly graceful manner,
however, he thanked the committee
for their kind words of welcome. and
assured them that their interest in

The turn that has taken place in
the affairs of Mount Saint Mary's Col
lege is much to be regretted, as that
institution has long been known as
one oil the leading Catholic collegiate
institutions Ofthe country. For sixty
years and more it has been recognized
as a college of exalted rank, and it
numbers among its graduates many
distinguished Catholic prelates in all
parts of the country. Among them
may be mentioned Cardinal McCle--
key. That such an institution should
have been compelled to succumb in a
measure to load of debt, and to Pc
tition court for the appointment of
a receiver, excites wonder at first, and
then feeling of deep regret. It
would seem that almost from the
start the college has had hard
struggle with its debts, and that these
have accumulated from year to year,
until the new president, who but re-
Gently took the chair, found the load
too heavy to carry longer. Starting
without an endowment, it is no WON
der that difficulties beset its mana
gers. 1t is more than probable, and
fair to presume. that there was lack
of the best financial management, and
while we would be far from saying
this to the discredit of the hOnored
presidents of the college. who have
passed to their reward with their life
werk well done, yet we can find in
this the only plausible reason for
the bankruptcy of the institution,
Thorough business management
would very likely have saved the col.
lege from the step it was compelled
to take. What may be the future
history of the college. ii is hard to say
at this writing; but we trust that
such an honorable settleme' will be
made with the creditors that the in
stitution will be enabled to resume
its good work in the cause of higher
education.-Bdtto. american.

How IRISH Peasants LIVE
The dens, misnamed cots, in which
the peasantry of Galway and Mayo
counties live are mersly stone shell
ters owing to the intense ignorance
of the people they are not provided
with any facilities for drainage, and
are often incomparably filthy. the
fieors are of hard mud it is rare to
find more than one room in a hut,
and only one story. Beds and bed
ding are luxuries which the poorer
tenants dc net possess old heaps of
hay and straw are the coucheS on
which the lovely, brown eyed, large
browed maidens of Connaught re.
pose. The smoke from peat fire in
common peasants cabin spreads
through the room, and you narrowly
escape strangulation on your first
visit. / have had this expel fence in
Herzegovina, and consequently
minded the smoke but little. How
family derency is maintained in these
dens is mystery, and how the PEG;
pie manage to keep clean-for they
look clean-is a puzzle. The pigs
run i'm and out of the doors-and
such wretched pigs A North Caro-
lima wild hog would be an aristOcrat
beside them In dozens of these cab
ms sick people are to be found-sick
people dependent either on the char
ity of their neighbors or on friends
in America who send them small
sums. A gentleman in Galway told
me that the agents of landlords
treated the poorer tenantry as if they
were animals. He instanced the case
of one agent who. on rent day. when
any tenant was short half crown in
his payment, would knock the
money off the table on to the floor,
so as to huniliate the tenant before
his fellows. Up to a re- nt date
even the better class of tenants would
not have dared to resent such behav-
i0r they were ready to fawn before
the man who insulted them. Now
the tables are turned and the agent
sneaks in and out among the people,
taking Is per cent. less than the
usual rental, if indeed he gets any
thing at all, and is glad to get away
again out of the farming district

The Local Newspaper.

The columns of a paper are the
publishers stock in trade, and the
parties who ask to use them for their
special benefit must expect to pay
for the same. Every public spirited
citizen of a place should have pride
in seeing his town and surroundings
improve; every new house, every
read, every new manufacturing es-
tablishment erected, every new bust
ness opened, enhances the value of
property in our midst. Every reflect
ing mind knows this to be true, and
it should not be forgotten that the
local newspaper adds much to the
general wealth and prosperity of the
place, as we'll as increases the reputa-
ton of the town abroad.-It benefits
all who have business in the place ;
enhances the value of property, be-
sides being desirable public conven-
fence, even if not conducted in the
interests of the ruling political pow
err. 1t increases trade, it cautions
against imposition, it saves you from
loss, it warns you of danger, it points
out different advantages, and in
creases your profits. The local press
is the power that moves the people ;
therefore support il by advertising in
it literally, subscribe for it, and pay
for it.-EE.
