 NEW YORK, March 1S.-Mr. A. M. Sullivan, late editor of the Dublin Nation, and mem Der of Parliament for Louth, Ireland, under date of London, England, February 24, has written a letter to the editor of the Irish American of this city concerning the 'Dyna- mite Policy'' Mir. Sullivan says, among other things :-"Even before visited Amer ica knew fairly well the average value and purpose of these announcements Ethe pronun- ciamentos of the dynamiters as to what they proposed to dol that they were generally, though not always, composed for the express purpose of being cabled to London and be- ing qu oted in the House of Commons, so that subscribers should hurry up with the dollars, seeing how mortally John Bull was being 'frightened' I know that the leaders of the Irish movement here invariably re- fused to regard these things seriously and discouraged all notice of them as calculated only to serve misehievous purpose. I am one of nearly two millions of Irishmen resi- dent on this side of the Irish Channel Our homes are in the midst of the cities that are forsooth to be kerosened and dynamlted. Our little ones to roast in the fires which oul chivalrous friends (safe and sound, 1000 miles away), in New York or Peoria, are to send men to start around us. The brute creation will fight for it's young Are we lower and baser than they? Could we heark- en unmoved to childhood's shriek from gar ret and nursery, calling in vain on Father for rescue? Should we forsooth coolly an swer back to our perishing children, Burn burn away, dear little ones, in order that MT Grove, of far off Peoria, may think that he has frightened John Bull'
 "sAll things are lawful against England J Are they? What tribunal of public morality or religious accountability has settled that point? And what is meant by England i? If so are we to cut the throats of any of the enemy we can take at disadvantage on a lonely road, or in a railway train If so are we to 'frighten England by battering out the brains of any little English boys or girls we can catch coming home from school What is the difference in morality between employing men to treacher- ously burn down London, at nc matter what sacrifice of human life. and employing them to poison the water mains and so kill the enemy by millions? Or suppose some handful of his men seceds from Mir. Grove and call him half hearted because he shrinkf from magnificent scheme for simulta- neous dosing of the London milk supply with strychnine, would they be entitled tc call themselves tIreland and make war or
 Eneland' after this fashion? Surely if the world could produce body of men capable of any such line of action the nations and people of Christendom would confederate to exterminate them as human monsters.
 s'Weu, I know that no such cowardice and atrocity dare be practised or really will be practised. But while those men on youl side of the water who publish such schemes are thinking of how to frighten John Bull, or put Harcourt in a rage,' ss some of them declared to me last autumn, they are moi frightening England bit, but they are doing horrible injury to Irishmen and to Ireland They are evicting honest Irishmen from gooc casting them into cruel poverty. They ars hurling Irish girls upon the streets of Eng fish cities They are, before my eyes, driv l ing Irish children of tender years to mendi | cancy and crime in the gutters and slums oi London. '
