NEw York. April 20sh.-The Tribune says
on yesterdays disclosures in Dublin: These
plots we're formed in New York The money
was raised here, and the agents were selected
and sent out to do their work Of destruction,
and they were not Irish refugees, but Amer
leans. These are the facts which the United
States Government will have to face. If
there is no law, local, State or National,
under which these crimes can be punished
the time has come for its enactment. The
Governments of Christendom will be forced
for mutual protection to discriminate be-
tween political offenses and dynamite crimes
TIE Stai (Kelly's organ is the only other
morning paper equally outspoken. 1t says !:
The men who plot the use of dynamite for
such destruction and slaughter are enemies
of mankind, and to dangerous to be suffered
to go at large. There is no law ia this State
to punish such coRspirscies, but there ought
t. be one of the NEST stringent character.
The World and two or three others seem
disposed to discredit Lynch's testimony, not
withstaDding much OF it is corroborated in
the interviews and local reports printed this
morning.
The Star says its reporter was denied ad-
mission at DR.. Gallagher's house last even
ing. The house stands on the cornerinter-
sectir the street, and at the side, as well as
in front, stood number of mep, which led
to the belief that the place is surrounded by
guard.
The Sun prints the report of an enthusiastic
meeting at Jersey City last evening under the
auspices of the Prisoners Sustenation Fund
Society, at which, among the resolutions
adopted with enthusiasm, was one THAT this
meeting hereby indorses the action of the ad-
vance party in ireland, the Invincibles, as
the only sort Of action that will ever win free.
dom for ireland, and that we regard dynamite
as the greatest contribution made by science
to the masses. as it places in their hands an
instrument against which the power Of Gov
ernment is powerless." Victory Drury, one
of the speakers, said the basis of the evil of
Ireland is landlordism, and lsndloroisn must
go down, not only in Ireland, but the world
over.
The Statue Of Liberty.
New YoRK, April 20th.-The Sun says
Work will soon be begun at Bedloe Island
for the Bartholdi statue. The Executive
Committee have issued instructions to the
Treasurer to call ia the subscriptions, which
amount to about S6O,0 900. Besides this there

the money has come in subscriptions from
wealthy men. No subscription has exceeded

money has been collected outside.
Idle Italians.
New YosK, April 20th.-The editor of
the Italian newspaper Progresso, recently
returned from California, says: There are
between 1000 and 5000 idle italian working
number is increasing with incoming steamers
The recent foods in Italy have driven num-
bers from their homes, and all who have
means seek refuge in America. Hundreds
apply to me avery day, begging me to get
them work. wish some big contractor
would let me know when they want hands.
l could get all the hands they required.
Grant and Lincoln.
New York, April 20sh.-General Grant,
in introducing Colfsx last night, who lectured
on Lincoln, said Ladies and gentlemen
1t has been assigned me to present the orator
Of the evening, who will deliver lecture
upon the life and public services of our late
martyred President, Lincoln. l. was not my
good fortune TO have known that eminent
man in early days. Although we hailed from
the same State, and were citizans of the same
State at the beginning of the great Rebellion,
yet never met him until 1864, when I was
called East to take command of the Army of
the Potomac. had heard very much about
Lincoln, and all my prejudices were in his
favor. [ had heard much about his fund of
anecdote, and had heard many anecdotes at
tributed to him which seemed to me rather
coarse to come from such source. After my
coming to the East l esw great deal Of
him. He seemed to love to spend his time
with officers of the Army of the Potomac.
and was always at my headquarters when
possible, and never heard him talk seriously
about anything that he did not illustrate the
strong points he wanted to make by an anec-
dote always appropriate, always clear, al
ways such as might be repeated here or in
any society. 1t is my firm conviction that
many of the anecdotes that are attributed
to Lincoln were never uttered by him. ALI
that I ever hesrd were illustrative of the
point he wanted to make clear, and am told
that this was his course at the bar as a law.
L
that were told to me for my instruction, but
as came in this evening was handed note
reminding me of circumstance that did
not know before, or if | did, had forgotten,
aud which marks the appropriateness for the
date fixed for hearing this lecture. 1t is very
near, only few days after, the anniversary
of the death OF the great man Of whose life
and public services you are to hear of this
evening, and it is also the centennial ami
yersary Of the announcement by Washington
TO bis army of recognition by Great Britain
of the Independence of the Colonies. Ladies'
and gentlemen, | have now offered more re-
marks than | am in the habit of making on
my feet. for l talk best when sitting. and I
will present to you the orator of the evening,
a gentleman who for four years was my col
league as Vice-President, while I was in the
Office Of President-the late Vice. President
of the United States, Schuyler Colfax.
[Applause Several journals, noticeably the
Sun, severely criticise Colfax for .lecturing
upon SO good and great man as Lincoln.
