mr. Errington's Mission TO Rome.

In the House of Commons yesterday
evening Lord Randolph Churchill called at
tenton to the mission of Nh. Errngton to
Rome, and argued that there could be no
doubt that the government had recoui-
mended him to the Vatican. the recent
papal manifesto in regard to Irish affairs
being the result.
Mr. Gladstone replied that Mr.. Erring-
ton had gone to Rome at his own sugges
tion. Mr.. Errington informed Earl Gran
vile that he was going to Rome, and as Mr.
Errington was Papist greatly interested in
Irish affairs it was only natural that mis-
intercourse with the Pope would be inter
estiDg to Her Majesty's government. Mr.
Errington received no pay, aud no instruc-
tions were given him by the government; !;
but, said Mr.. Gladstone, as Mr. Errington's
visits to Rome would tend to alter his po-
sition in future, record would be male of
his proceedings and kept for transmission
to the successor of Earl Granville as foreign
secretary. Mr.. Gladstone said that the
government had given Mr.. Errington in.
formation on the real state Of Ireland in
the interest of peace and order.

IT seems impossible that a remedy made
ofsuch common, simple plants as Hops, Bu-
chu, Mandrake, Dandelion, &C., should
make so many and such great cures as Hop
Bitters do; but when old and young, rich
and poor pastor and doctor, lawyer and
editor, all testify to having been cured
by them, you must believe and try them
yourself and doubt no longer

Launch of the Amphitrite.

The double turretted monitor Amphi-
trite was successfully launched at Whining
ton, Del, yesterday. Among those present
were Secretary Chandler, Senator Hawley,
Superintendent of Naval Construction Hich-,
born, Chief Engineer Shock and Chief Con-
structor Wilson. Secretary Chandler, in
his speech at the banquet at the Clayton
House after the launching, said that there
was no evidence that the contracts Of
March, 1877, in relation to the monitors
were not fair or reasonable in price that
the contractors stood without particle of
blame attached to them for the long delay
and that they met the department more
than half way. Senator Hawley in re-
sponse said that he was in favor of increas-
ing the Navy. He was in favor of max
ing annual appropriations for this purpose
until the country was supplied with swift
and powerful cruisers suitable for every
feature of naval defense.

OF the Interesting and Highly Sen
sationai Drama Known ~ Tho OFT
man Compromise.
Have you read the correspondence
given out by the Department of Justice
relative to the ottman compromise ~
queried gentleman of The Carrie this
morning.
"I looked over it casually" answered
the scribe; what of it ?"
"Oh, nothing, only it Is a fraud. The
letters and papers as furnished to the
press for publication now, are not the
originals by any means. The papers as
published are an afterthought, aud con.
tain but one truth, and that is that
the Government has been robbed
second time of the same money by
men who were receiving large salaries at
the time. Why do you observe that the
name of r. r. Merricl1 does not figure in
all this correspondence? And why is it?
/ will tell you. 1t is because he had not
concluded the greatest effort of his life. He
admits that he was 0ttman's original at
torney, and that he received his fee. Now,
that fee was $1,000 aud was part of the
stolen money. But a man who is so pea
cockish as to furnish money to purchase
bouquet to have placed on the table in
front of him while speaking is just the kind
of man to accept stolen money in payment
of fee and then cover it up if he can. But
tell you Congress will be in session in a
few months, and it is mighty apt to look
after this whole matter
"How do you know that Merricls got any
money from Ottman?"
why, he says so himself, and tell you
he got .itfrom Mrs, Ottmau when Ottmau
was in jail, and that, too in way that au
honest man would scorn, and when she had
paid out and spent every dollar she had she
called on Merriclt for a little help, and he
refused her enough to buy loaf of bread"
DO you suppose Merrick thought Ott-
man guilty at the time he accepted the
money p
81 don't suppose anything about it. Mr.
Merrick told me within an hour after he
had talked with Ottman that he was Ito
use Mr.. Merrick' IS own language) as guilty
as hell"
"Then you think the official statement
in relation to the compromise so-called is
crooked ?'
