Recently the Earl of Devons Irish tenants met to consider his offer as to the purchase of their holdings. A letter from MT. Psrnell was read, in which he said that sixteen years purchase, provided the yearly lnssaIlmenss did not exceed the present rents, would be fair offer on the part of the tenants. The agent suggested making this offer to Lord Devon, and said that he had heard from sev- eral landlords in the counties of Limerick and Kerry who were watching the negotiations and would allow their tenants to purchase on similar terms to those which might be agreed upon. It was resolved to appoint local committee to ascertain the views of the ten ants and the offers they would be prepared to make for their holdings. A document is said to have been signed by more than half the tenants expressing their willingness to pur- chase. This business excites great interest in Ireland.

The Chinese exclusion bill which the Pacific coast delegation will try to have Congress pass is criticised by California citizens, and apparently on good grounds. Fault is found with it because it does not define the word teachers" It is pointed out that while the interpretation of the words merchant. and ''student' is made moro exact, the point about teachers is left unguarded. Admission to the country only on certificate that the man intends to teach here, as well as on g guarantee that he taught in China, is urged as further restriction. Moreover, the bill does not attempt tq deal with perjury. It is said to be favorite device, when other things fail, to secure sn affidavit that the COO lie seeking entrance to the country was here before the treaty was adopted, the Chinese officials on the Pacific only certifying to the certifers.

A Man who Killed Five of the Philadelphia
Troops IN 1877 Dangerously Wounded.
Pittsburgh Dispatch to the Press.
William Phillips is lying in critical
condition, froIl an ugly wound inflicted
with poker in the hands of a man
named Henry Young, with whom he got
into an alteration some days ago. Phil
lips is better known as Pat, the
Avenger," from the prominent part sup
posed to have been taken by him in the
great railroad riots in Pittsburgh in 1877.
At that time it was said that a brother of
his had been killed by the PhiladelIh hia
troops when they had fired the fatal vol
ley at Twenty eighth street crossing, kill
ing some forty or fifty people. The troops
af:erward fled to the round house, where
they remained until morning, when they
made their escape from the mob and
marched out to the arsenal, but, being
refused admission there. they continued
on the march to Blairville.
From the time they left the round
house until they got several miles from
the city, they were followed by a large
crowd, among them man supposed to be
Phillips, who carried rifle. and at every
opportunity picked off soldier, killing
five between Twenty eighth street and the
Allegheny cemetery. As the story went,
the man, when he found his brother had
been killed, registered a terrible oath of
vengeance, and that he kept his oath the
number of dead along the street fully tes-
titled. Phillips was arrested and sur
named "Pat the Avenger," but at the
trial no person was able to identify him as
the party who had done the shooting, and
he was released.
