LAKE shipping suffered greatly in a
northwesterly gale on the Goth and 21st
inst. A number of sailing vessels were
driven ashore at Chicago. The schooner
Jenny Lind capsized and the captain and
three of the crew were drowned. The vessel
would probably prove a total loss. The
schooner Mary Ellen Cook was disabled
and boy washed overheard and drowned.
The schooner Henry Berger, which was
driven ashore, would be a complete
wreck. AT Milwaukee, six of the
crew of the schooner Petrol took
TO the yawlboat, abandoning the cap
tain, and attempted to make the shore, but
the boat was capsized and three of the men
were drowned. The captain was rescued.
The schooner was badly damaged. The
schooner Lille E. and Sailor Boy were
wrecked in endeaving to enter the river at
Milwaukee. Numerous other craft were
damaged in that vicinity by the storm, and
from other ports along the lakes came re-
ports Of injuries to shiDDing.

The storm which occurred on the 18th

seems to have been attended with more ia
tality and damage than any other similar
storm of recent years. The telegraphed
details show loss of life that is absolute
~ appalling, while the extent of damage
done is sufficient to give cyclone insurance
companies perpetual boom. The storm
rayaged portions of three States-Nissouri,
Illinois and Wisconsin. The Illinois storm
was doubtless a connection of that which

Mr.. Medill's advice to laboring people
as to saving is simply adding insult to
injury. When reading the report of this
interview, the hardships, the struggles
and privations, cognizant to us, of a la
boring man living in this city, came un-
bidden into our mind. The man referred
to is common laborer; honest, indus
trious, sober and the member of a
church. He has wife and two small
children to support. The wages paid him
for risking his life in tearing down old
buildings or in wrestling with pick and
shovel, is $l.25 per day. When the
weather is inclement idleness is forced
upon him, resulting in the curtailment
of his Saturday nights stipend. We're
it not that his wife is chained night and
day to a sewing machine, starvation
would seriously threaten to invade his
premises. During the winter, when
work is slack with him. his frugal repast
is rarely seasoned with meat. The qles-
ton of how laboring men employed at
Mt. Clare, who have families dependent
upon them, receiving but $i07 a day,
may manage to live, and pay the doctor,
the butcher and grocer, we will leave to

On Sigismund Mountain.

Countrymen YOU who love Ireland
more than faction, you who prefer to
worship liberty i'll preference to men,
You who have advanced on the path Of
evolution sufficiently to realize that the
liberty Of Ireland is a question which
the Irish people can solve, when they
are prepared to sacrifice all personal in
terests at the shrine of liberty you who
have arrived at the high standard of
revolutioniSts, and can put every per-
s0nal or selfish motive to the rear, while
YOU Join hands with all the enemies Of
England to form a diplomatic battle
army that shall work for Ireland, first,
last and all the time; you who believe
that life without liberty is not worth liv-
ing, you believe that the liberty Of Ire
land is worth more to us than the wealth,
civilization and life of the entire Anglo
Saxon race All you men, through
whose veins run the hot blood of Irish
rebels, and who believe that earnest,
honest men only can, and will, bring
freedom to Ireland, to all you men | ex
tend an invitation to come up on to Sig
ismund mountain and take retrospect
i've bird's-eye view of the situation. The
general who cannot survey the enemY's
resources, as well as his own, stands in
great danger of defeat. In my last ar
ticle | pointed out the insidious diplo-
matte work that our enemy is executing
to crush the Irish question. While you,
all friends of Ireland, are up on Sigls-
mund mountain let me mass the Irish
situation and compare it with that Of
England, and see if there is fair chance
for our success as the result of the pres
ent condition of Irish affairs.
In Ireland agitation, under the lead Of
Parnell, has control of affairs. Parnell
is undoubtedly earnest and honest l
hope he will yet be, if he is not now, d
revolutionist. This agitation is doing
much for Ireland in putting the case of
Ireland before the people of the world;
it is also doing much harm to the cause
in developing a faint hope in the minds
of the present generation that Ireland
can get justice at the shrine of English
law makers. A great delusion. The
National League is pledged to agitation +;
hence it must discountenanCe force, while
it's organization is subject to the brutal
power of England. 1t. is limited in
financial supplies and its leaders are liza
BILE to be imprisoned at any moment,
which, from the nature of the organiza-
ton, will leave the people like man
who is dependent on another for pure
air-any accident happening to the man
who supplies the air suffocates the other ;
so with the National League, the impris-
onment of its leaders suspendsthe work,
and, perhaps, sufocates the cause. Then
the spirit of the League is selfish, which
is very forcible, but should be associated
with the higher sentiment of liberty.
The only allies the League have are the
Irish organizations in America, where
the clan assumes to dictate the policy,
1t is we'll known that the ambition OF
the clan leaders is greater than their
love for liberty or for Ireland; hence 1t
is not to be wondered that they don't

Class LegislatiOn.

Whatever may be the sentiments of
our readers as regards the fundamental
principles of either of the political par
ties, and which of these shall have the
reins of government to dictate the legls-
lation Of the country, we desire to have
these laid aside, and let us look at the
issues which to-day are before us and
ask ourselves which party shall receive
our vote in the coming election. For a
party to exist, it must have principles,
and, with the rapid growth of our
country, it must have issues which will
keep pace with the demands and neces-
sites of the people. To-day there are
among others, two leading issues which
engross the public mind-the tariff and
the regulating of the sale of liquors.
While there are many democrats and
republicans protective tariff men, the
masses, as well as recognized leaders in
both parties, are in favor of free trade.
But to-day this question is but slightly
agitating the public mind, and perhaps
another year may bring about the results
hoped for by both parties upon this
question.
The other of the two issues is what
some are pleased to call "the temperance
question:" or, as it should be properly
termed, the regulating of the manufac-
ture and sale of liquors. When faction
in any party becomes so bold as to die
tate the policy to be pursued, we say to
the electors of that party, defeat it; it
will prove OF wholesome benefit to the
party and show to the world that the
people, and not unscrnpulous politicians,
govern. So it is to be said of any class ;
when any part of the common people
undertake to dictate what shall be the
laws of their native or adopted state,
we say the people should hold them in
check before it becomes to late. Have
we such a class2 Yes! To-day there
exists in the state of Ohio one Of the
most powerful organizations in the
country, known as 'The Ohio Liquor
