ASSASSINATION IN IRELAND.

Assassination runs rampant in Ireland,
or at least in Dublin. The Phoenix Park
murders are still involved in mystery.
when two separate asuasginations occur,
one of detective, and the other of e jury.
man who had committed the offense of
helping to convict q murderer. The men
who killed tie detective are now believed
to have been lying in wait for much more
important prey; in fact it is more than
surmised that their purpose was to aasas-
sinate number of judges who had been
dining together in the neighborhood, and
in few minutes would have had to pass
the spot where these villains were lurking.
The detective very probably discovered
their plot, and in rage at the Illustration of
it they killed him. This hideous and alto
gether detestable and cowardly practice of
assassination must be abandoned by the
Irish, or they will soon have no friends.
The most shameful feature about it is
that those who are in position to give in.
formation which might lead to the punish
ment of these atrocious crimes, will rather
become accomplices in the murders than
testify to what they know. And SO long
as this is the case it will be useless to pre-.
tend that the many foul outrages which
continually are perpetrated there are not
sympathized with by the general popula-
ton. Unfortunately all the evidence at
tainable is the other way.

AN UEsCIsNTEFIC scIEarIsr

One Professor Brooks, "of the Red
House Observatory" (which place is sug.
gestive of dry goods ADVERTISEMENT, is
said to have asked, con behalf of astro.
"nomicsl science aud astronomers, that
prayers be offered Sunday next in all the
"churches for fine weather on the 9th OF
December next, the date of the transit OF
"Venus." We do not know who this
Professor Brooks is, but certainly he is a
very unscientifc scientist. Praying for
fine weather, or for rain, is species of
fetishism different in degree, but not
in kind, from that which is pracsiced on
the coast OF Africa. We are moreover
very certain that Professor" Brooks has
no authority to make SO preposterous re.
quest "on behalf OF astronomical science
land astronomers" for modern astron.
oners are too enlightened to put any
fsith Id such experiments.

4 BASE EVASION,


The attempt of ex-Marshal Henry to
cover the disgrace OF his removal by charg.
ing the Administration with enmity to
him as a friend and connexion of Presi.
dent Garfield, appears to be nothing less
than base evasion. The only question is
whether he, as United States Marshal for
the District of Columbia, was improperly
friendly with the Star.route defendants.
Attorney General Brewster says he was,
and upon that ground demanded his re.
moval. Attorney General Brewster is Ger.
tainly not an enemy of Garfield, and we
do not believe that any idea of that kind
entered into the matter. Henry was re-
moved for cause, and for good cause, and
the real friends of Garfield will not per.
NIT him to shield his wrong-doing behind
the reputation of the dead President. The
country is satisfied that the removal of
Henry was fully warranted, and it will not
change that belief easily.

icle says that "this of course is gross ex-
aggeration. The price of steel rails,
wherever they are manufactured in this
country, has never been over 100 per
" cent. greater than in Great Britain, and
" the advance is rarely more than 40 per
scent" In these statements the Chronicle
exhibits its characteristic disregard for the
truth. At this very time, when, as is
notorious, the price of American steel rails
has fallen greatly, their price is more than
100 per cent. greater than that of the
English rails. a year ago, six months
ago, In fact, American rails were lao per
cent. more costly to the purchaser than
the English article. The price in England
is SD per ten. The current price in the
United States is S45 per ton. A
year ago the American rails were selling at
between $50 and s7e per ton. As to what
the Chronicle says further abou. reduc-
tisn in the duty making rails dearer in
stead of cheaper, it is of piece with the
Protectloplst arguments about wages
that is to say it is kind of nonsense Of
which an intelligent schoolboy ought TO be
ashamed. The Chronicle, however, with the
usual consistency of " anti.monopoly"
sheets, isatpresentengaged in defendlngthe

on the continent, and lifts up its voice in be.
half of more protection" for the oorperse-
secuted steel rail-makers, who, though
according to the confession of one of their
own number they made so per cent. profit
on their invested capital last year, are
now SO distressed that they cannot keep
their mills open unless their employees will
submit to 25 per cent. reduction of wages.

TIE Money Market.

local use and remittance. Money has ruled
in New York for the past week at to u per

those having idle money to place it Temporal

advance in exchange on that city. Grain bills
are dull, and the supply is in excess of the
demand. Silver Is dull, both for coined and
uncoined, and the market well supplied
with domestic and foreign kinds.
