The slkirmishing Fund swindlers.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1O.-The Irish convention
has probably adjourned sine die, although
there remain number of those who control
the fund. The committe being unable to get
a statement from the trustees of the fund the
more reputable delegates, including most of
those from New England, withdrew, headed
by DR.. Hoare, of Lowell, and Capt. Omagher,
of Washington, and they have gone home.
The convention practically ends the 'clan Ma
gael'' society. There is no doubt the honest
men were in the majority in the convention,
but they were unable to control others, hence
there was no possibility of harmony.
Grow, in a communication to the Tribune,
tonight, says the secrecy in the "Clan Ma
Gael'' society has been merely cloak for the
rascality of cormorants, who have fastened
themselves on the Irish national element. For
every dupe they have gained they have lost
two good members, and in no way advanced
the freedom for Ireland. He argues that the
$92, 900 fund, of which he was the originator,
be rescued, and the trustees made to account
for it on pain of expulsion. Otherwise the
name of the "Clan ma Gael' will go down in
history as that of one of the most corrupt cor
porations of the age.

Wants His Reward.

P. O'Regan commenced suit yesterday
against Andrew Schock to recover the sum of
800, the amount of reward offered for the re-
coverY of certain valuable papers and promis.
sorry notes distracted from the safe of the de-
PENDANT on the 18th day of January last The
complaint alleges that Andrew Schock public
ly offered reward of 500 for the recovery of
the papers and the arrest of the person who
stole them. O'Regan claims that IN consider
alton of the said reward offered, he traced out
The perpetrator, IN the person of one Frank
Mantor, AMI that said Mantor was aft5rw ards
convicted of the crime, and that the defendant
received back all his papers and notes. Tie
complaint further states that the defendant
has refused to pay the reward of $50, and
hence the suit, which asks for judgment
against said defendant for the sum of 500 and
interest from the Doth day of January, 1881,
together with costs and disbursements.

SOME of the public journals are urging
that Lady Burdett- Coutts, on her forth
coming visit to America in October, be
rendered a series of public receptions. 1t
is to be hoped that no such plan will be
carried out, as there is no doubt it will
be highly distasteful to the lady. She is
deserving of the highest honors for her
many good deeds in the cause Of human
ity, but public recognition of those
services, managed as Americans usually
conduct such demonstrations, would be
far from pleasing to any lady of good
taste

1T has been announced that the British
House of lords will accept the Irish land
bill as amended by the commons as mat

not to be expected that the lords would
accept any measure designed to alleviate

on compulsion. They cannot appreciate

Piles.

Piles are frequently preceded by sense OF
weightin the back, loins, and lower part Of
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times symptoms of indi-
gestion are present, as fatulency, uneasiness
of the stomach, etc. A moisture like perspi-
ration, producing very disrgreeable itching,
particularly at night, after getting warm in
bed, is very common attendant Internal,
external and itching piles yield at once on the
application of DR.. Bosanko's Pile Remedy,
which acts directly upon the parts affected,
absorbing the Tumors, allaying the intense
itching and etfecting permanent cure
where all other remedies have failed. Do not

THE rBIUMpH OF THE BoERs.

For the first time in a century the Brit
ish government has been Obliged to lac-
knowledge itself beaten Dispatches
from South Africa convey the intelligence
of the retrocession of the Transvaal to
the Beers, and the proclamation of Boer
republic by authority of thel British gov
eminent, the republic to be perpetual and
independent, though assured of British
protection against foreign foes
Thus have the gallant band, who have
so long defied the entire strength of Great
Britain, attained the object they sought
complete independence and the privi-
lege of self government. The contest
was of such recent occurrence that it is
not necessary at this time to recapitulate
it's incidents. 1t was a determined and
sanguinary war, IN which the Beers,
fighting for their homes and their liber-
ties, were opposed Dy an overwhelming
force of trained men of arms. But the
Beers possessed an advantage in thor
ough knowledge of the country, and be-
ing expert in the handling of the rifle,
were able to cope successfully with four
times their number Time after time the
British were repulsed with frightful loss,
and when an armistice was agreed upon
it was the invaders that asked for terms.
1t was not so stated in the dispatches,
for British pride stood in the way of such
an announcement. 1t was gwen forth
that the object of the government had
been misunderstood, and that there had
never been an intention of subjugating
the Beers or depriving them of their
country. The only object of the in.
vasien, it was said, was to procure an
ample apology for indignities offered by
some natives of Transvaal to British sub
jects. This was an easy way of getting
out of bad scrape, but it was the only
way aside from confession of absolute
defeat
The peace was patched up, and from
the late dispatches it is easy to see that
its terms were entirely satisfactory to the
Beers. They may have made the re-
quired sample apology" but that was
not excessively humiliating. The fact
remains patent to all intelligent readers
that the first purpose of the British gov
eminent was to subjugate the Transvaal
and annex it to the Anglo African pos
sessions of the crown. 1t was found I'M
possible owing to the heroism, patriot
ism and determination of the natives, to
accomplish this purpose, and therefore
the easiest way out of the dilema was
adopted. The Beers are to be congratu-
lated on their gallant defense Of their |

ST. PAUL, FRIDAY, AUGUST 10, 1881.

A sKIRMIsHING fund does not appear
to be conducive to harmony in the Irish
ranks. The GAMMA Gael has gone to
sion of its disposition and custody, just
as the Fenian organization did before it.
The surest way to avoid quarrels among
the members of such societies is to have
no money to quarrel about.

0. This is the third game which the Chica-
Cos have played within week in which they
have not made an error, and the third in which
they have whitewashed their opponents. To-
day they not only played faultless game
but batted hard and allowed the Detroits to
make but one base in the entire nine innings.
This, it is claimed, is the finest exhibition of
oerfect playing ever crowded into one week.
