widow with any charms at all can have

Widows always have the advantage of

better how to hatter men, how auda-

seeming to do so. But there is some

The American Citizens In Engiisn Prisons.
Washington National Republican.
The Irish resolution in the House
should have fair hearing and proper
consideration. An Irish.American nat.
uralized citizen has the same ri ght to
the protection of the United States
government abroad as has a native.
Neither can with IMMUNITY violate the
municipal law of another nation. 1t is
due to justice. to national self-respect,
and to the sensibilities of our Irish.
born fellow-citizens and the native.
born descendants of Irishmen that this
government should zealously inquire
whether O'Connor and other Ameri-
can citizens now in British prisons are
restrained of their liberty by such a
stretch of English law as calls for pro-
test from this government. The re-
cent effervescence of national spirit
over the arrest of the Peruvian chief
Calderon by Chill may have exhausted
the Americanism of those who felt so
deeply the cruelty of that transaction,
but we confess to stronger feeling
when the American flag is unable to
protect American citizens. 1t may be
that O'Connor and his friends have so
placed themselves in the wrong that
the United States cannot complain, but
it should be made very clear to the
whole American people. Whatever
is the law will satisfy the people, but
they will not and ought not to be salts
fed with prejudgment Of the case by
the American congress upon the state
ment of the London press or its snob-
Dish echoes IN America.
President Arthur Attends ''Patience."
Baltimore, February 2o.-Probably
the most distinguished and brilliant as
semblage of the best society of Balti-
more ever gathered at one time, rep
resenting its wealth, fashion, and beau
ty, was seen tonight at the Academy
of Music to witness an amateur per-
formance of"Patience," the characters
being taken by ladies aad gentlemen
residents of New York, who gave the
same performance at Chickering Hall
in that city last month. Every seat in
the academy was taken, ladies and
gentlemen being in full dress. Presi-
dent Arthur, accompanied by several
ladies from Washington. occupied a
box adjoining the stage. 1t is said
the opera was given for the benefit of
a charitable institution (the Home of
the Friendless) in this city. All tick
cts of admission were sold privately.
The principal female character was
taken by granddaughter of Mary
lands distinguished statesman, the
late Reverdy Johnson, who is also a
niece of New York gentleman we'll
known on Wall street. From begin
ming to end the performance was rap
turously applauded. The most promi-
nent railroad men, bankers, merchants
and professional gentlemen with their
families were present.
