PARNEIL's speech ut the recent Dublin
banquet is said to have isolated his party.
The English Radicals have heretofore
given the Irish leader strong support.
They have succeeded even in overcom-
ing the race prejudice which has always
been so marked in connection with Irish
affairs, but they cannot forgive the
wanton insult offered to their Queen by
the omission OF her name from the head
ut the toast list, for which they hold
Parncll responsible.

THREATENING REPRISALS.
The United States Threatened with ReprI
sails for Dynamite Outrages Concocted In
America.


LONDON, Dec. 10.
James Russell Lowell, the American
Minister, has been again assailed by the
Metropolitan Underground Employees AS
ISOLATION. On the 18th of November the
Association presented Mr.. Lowell with
SCI of resolutions which strongly de.
nounced the Irish Invincibles and Fe,,ians
as the authors OF the dynamite explosions
in the Underground Railway, at Praed
street. Accompanying the resolutions was
q reques. that Mr.. Lowell transmit the res.
olutions to the United States Government,
because the Association believed that the
explosions were really the work of conspir.
ators resident in the United States. Mr..
Lowell acknowledged the receipt of the
resolutions, but declined to forward them
to Washington, because, as he said, there
was not a particle of evidence to show that
any American was guilty OF completely in
the outrage. This answer was quite disc.
greeable to the employees, and they sought
counsel of lawyers. The result has Just
been produced in the shape of a long pub.
lie letter to the American Minister, which
was presented to-day. The document ia
very formidable, and is intended to entirely
humilitate Mr.. Lowell by showing the Brit.
ish how much more the underground rail.
way servants KNOW ABOUT the laws or evl.
dence and the duties of an American EN-.
bassador, than does the mere scholar, who
Is serving the United States as their Minis.
ter to England. The memorial starts out
with the bold declaration that the Associa-
ton of Metropolitan Underground Railway
servants find themselves unable to agree
with the American Minister in either of bis
opinions, viz: That there is no evidence to
show the completely of any American, and
that there is good reason for calling the at.
iention of the United States Government to
the outrage. 1t concludes with the some
what extraordinary threat that il Mr.. Low.
ell and his Government do not in the future
take action to suppress the dynamite socie-
hes alleged to exist in the United States,
the English people will protect themselves
by "reprisals." Mr.. Lowell was somewhat
started by the contents of the memorial,
and declined to take any other formal no.

sented it, than making a mere acknowledge

my attention was called to Hunts Remedy

my own great satisfaction, became MS we'll as

THE GREAT FALLS AND THE ELECTRIC LIGHT.
10 Me Editor.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept. 30.-Somc time
since | tried TO get some of my New York
friends to form company to utilize tho Great
Falls of the Potomac for tho purpose of illu.
minating Washington but failed. am glad
Co see that at last gentlemen have been found
with enough public spirit to inaugurate an
improvement which will be highly welcomed
by the citizens Of Washington. With such a
magnificent waterfall running TO waste ample
power can be had to mako the application of
electricity even moro efficient than contom-
pla ted. Tho late experiments made in France
on the transmission Of power by electricity
prove that at the present day it may be used
with reasonable economy, and no reason eN-
lists why the Washington company should not
introduce electricity into dwellings to be
used for running sewing machines and othor
labor saving apparatus. Small industrial es-
tablishments, such as printers &c, may also
use electric motors with advantage. Nature
has given an immense power to Washington
in the Great Falls, costing nothing. 1t re-
mains for man to mako it useful trust this
company will go ahead and will not prove to
be ono of those periodical efforts ending in
nothing, such as have often witnessed when
| was resident here. G. CoLNE.
