irish National Convention.

Editor Morning Netss: On Thursday, Sep
TENDER 18th, the Irish National ConYention
will open in Dublin to discuss Gladstone's
may land bill of 21l clauses, which is now
law Of the realm, to accept or reject that
long talked OF measure. There will be
delegates from every Land League in Ire
land and several from this country. 1t may
be regarded as one of the most important
conventions ever held in Ireland, on whose
decision will depend the fate Of landlordism
and the destiny of Ireland for veal or woe.
The psrtisans of the Gladstone so called
liberal party will try every means to infiu-
ence the convention to accept the three F's
land bill, and give it trial, or else eviction
and coercion more vigorous than ever will
be the lot of the tenantry OF Ireland. IL
will be q severe test Of their patriotism.
The Parnell- Davitt party will as strenuously
fight against the bill. On the government
side will be "hxity Of tenure and fair rent. "
Ga the Parnell banner will be inscribed
No rent. Or, in the words OF Michael
Dayitt, "rent in good seasons or bad sea-
sons, Is an immoral tax upon the industry
Of the people," Now or never down with
landlordism.
The American Land Leaguers do not in
tend to be mere lookeTs-on IN Venice on this
occasion. They say emphatically II the PEG
pie Of Ireland do not reject the sham land
bill and tear down the fabric of landlord
ism, as they have promised to do, another
dollar they will not send to Ireland were the
last man IN that country to starYe to death.
This position is correct, and will go far in
shaping the course of the convention.
There are fifteen hundred Land Leae uee
IN the United States. The last issue of the
Lrish World, which paper has done much for
the Land League, advises these to commu-
nicate by cable to the convention on the 14th
(the day before the conventioD) their posi-
ton and views in unmistakable terms, as
communication by mail would arrive too
late. This is very sensible advice,
and will, we hope, be extensively acted
upou-which will keep the cable pretty busy
on that daY-And may help TO save the pee
pie of Ireland from the disgrace and hu-
initiation Of succumbiDg to the landlords
after their innumerable assertions that any
settlement Of the Irish question that did not
embrace the abolition Of landlordism would
never be accepted by them. We trust, in
deed We are satisfied, the Savannah Land
League Will not forget 10 send their greeting
to the convention on this important occs-
sion. LAND Lacquer.

propriated twenty cents. This wa

overlook his first Offense considering his

beginning for the lev porter. Yesterday

MIR. Moves on a Coon Hunt In the


For some time past Mr.. Moves, Keeper OF
the Park, has been at loss to account Tor
the destruction of the numerous birds
nests that have been MADE in our park, as
well as the disappearance Of fish from the
fountain, and, after thorough searching ana
watching, failed to find the cause. tester
day afternoon, however, clue was Cd
tanned that led to the discovery, as ne be-
lleves, Of the perpetrstor of these depreda-
tions. While the hands were engaged In
Strengthening and trimming up the trees
damaged by the recent storm, an object In
one Of the branches of an oak on the west
ern side Of the fountain attracted their al
tention, and It was determined to make an
investigation. One Of the Workmen
Immediately ascended the tree, taking
with him long stick to 1ostle the varmint
out of his perch. AS soon as he had as
cended high enough he gave 1t push with
his stick, when it was found to be coon.
Mr.. Moves and his assistants at once armed
themselves with sticks, the signal
was given and his coonship was
forcibly elected from the tree, and as
soon as he landed on the ground they fell
upon and despatched him. He was taken
home by one Of the men, who, no doubt,
enjoyed good square meal Of coon. How
long this coon has been there, or from
whence he came, is not known, but Mr..
Moves is satisfied that this is the fisherman
that has been raidiDg on his fish, as large
number Of the inny tribe have disappeared
from the fountain in the past several
months.

The Eject of the Electric Light on
Young COuntryman.

Among the employees at the Central Rail-
road Wharves is a very excellent and worthy
Young man from the interior, who recently
came to Savannah to accept the position he
now holds. 10 his quiet little town tele
phones, electric lights and other modern
discoveries, inventions and conveniences
are unknown, and he has not
been here sufficiently long 10 be initiated
into these nv steiies. On Monday evening
he was on duty at the wharves, and whilst
sitting talking to some friends the twenty
different electric lights used at the
wharves were suddenly lit, and the
entire place was brilliantly Illuminated
with the bright glare. The new clerk,
who had never witnessed such a sight,
imagined one Of Mother Symptoms pTOphe-
cies was about to be verified, and, grabbing
his hat.,snd coat, started Oh q brisk run for
the city, amidst the laughter OF his friends,
who finally stopped him aRd assured him
there WAS no danger.

The Proposed Change In the jail


Editor Morning Nesos: The radical and
sweeping change proposed by the bill in
troduced in the Legislature In regard
to the Chatham county jail meets
with decided opposition from many
in the opinion Of well informed per-
sons, with opposition from a ma
iority of the community. The City
Council Of Savannah, the County Com
missloners of Chatham county, aud the
Drainage Commission are all opposed to the
bill proposed. When our Representatives
and Senator were nominated and voted for
and elected no such issue was before the
people and acted upon. If this had been
an issue, ii is safe to say they would not
have been elected as avoTed advocates OF
this measure. In the late municipal cleo
ton It was an issue made by the meeting
which nominated cur esteemed and popu-
lar townsmsn Captain d. G. Purse
for Mayor. A resolution advocating this
bill was passed by the meeting. Captain
Purse was placed at the head of the ticket,
and with ali his popularity and influence, he
was defeated by a majority of over two
thirds. The voters of Chatham county and
Of The city OF Savannah then pronounced,
in no unmistakable voice, their Judgment
doubt their opposition to this proposed
change. For about eighty years
the present system has been
in use, with the exception of few years
some half century ago. The representa-
tiVes Of the people, after little while, re-
turned to the old way. The majority of
them wish no radical sweeping change;
some notifications might be wisely made
in the existing law, but its entire repeal, as
proposed in the pending bill, they are OPP
posed to. Now, If our Representatives and
Senators do not wish TO take a snap
judgment on the people and hope
lessly split the party with this
impOlitic and unwise measure, let them
amend it in the Senate, IL too late to do 90
In the House, by leaving the question to q
vote Of the people. This is all the oppo-
nents of the bill ask, and this in common
fairness and honesty they have the right to
demand. While the people did pass on it
at the Mayoralty election and decided
against you, give them fair oppor' q ity to
vote on the new law and the old law;
and then, IL you are successful, 1t will be
fairly done, but not otherwise.

A Leading Professor Speaking of
GenafbIe PeOpIe.

DR.. s., the prominent Eastern medical
lecturer, says: "Every day sensible people

quently the blood, the stream of life, be-

portions, often verging on paralysis. In
order to keep the digestive organs in proper
health and strength, and my friends in the
profession have recommended Browns Iron
Bltters-they act so mildly and soothingly,

Wholesale Capture OF Pies.

Yesterday morning, about five O'Clock,
some enterprising individual, who evidently
believes In the old sdage that SIT is the
early bird that catches the worm" was
prOwling around the Market, noting what
he could appropriate. Passing by the
bread and cake stall Of Mr. Thomas Nugent
he observed q large basket filed with
tempting looking pies. The attention Of
Mr.. NugeRt and his clerk being for the
time elsewhere directed, the bold
thief snatched up the basket
and walked of with the
plates and pies. 1t was bold proceeding,
and IN appreciation thereof, he will receive
a reward by returning the basket and plates
at the stall and nothing viii be said about
the pies.

ETtya CompensatIon Asked.

We understand that Coroner Sheftau will
present q petition at the meeting Of the
Board Of County Commissioners to-day, ask
ing for compensation for extra services rem
dered during the past few weeks incident
TO the great storm. The Coroner held IN
quests on sixty seven victims OF the storm,
the majority Of whom he had to bury, and
10 attending to his duty was put to constd-
cradle expense, his outlay amounting to sIOS.
This was an extraordinary state OF affairs,
and the Coroner feels that he should receive
some extra compensation. The salary OF
the Office is 81, 500, and under ordinary cir
cumstances the expenses are not great.
The petition, we are sure, will receive just
consideration from the County Commission
ers, as Il should.

The Sunday Law Carried TO An
EVfrema.

We learn that certain parties are getting
up petition to have the Park gates locked
on Sundays, so as to give the hinges one
day'srest out of seven. Now, those parties
are undoubtedly "bilious," and If they
would take Kieffer's Peruvian Cure, accord
ing TO directions, they would soon get over
their niGSnldtic difficulties. They can find
it at any drug or country store. The pro-
prietor warrants its efficacy, and 1t only
costs 25 cents a bottle. Why suffer, gen
tlemen, with chills and fever, when you can
be cured for a quarter ?-AdV.
