HOPE FOR iceland.

The Irish cause has been strengthened by
the prudence and wisdom which character
lied the Philadelphia convention. The true
iriends OF Ireland feared that the fanaticsl
extremists would control the convention aud
apprehended a folly end madness which
would do much harm TO the cause. But wise
Counsels prevailed and the convention is to

sissassins whose crimes have done go much
Injury to a righteous cause. II tue Pnila.
tleIphia convention failed 10 dsnonnce the
conspirators, it did the next best thing, and
that was a refusal 10 surrender the conyen-

or the spokesman of the conven-
lion, and his psriy did not number
Tver $50 in convention of more than HOO
delegates. The press and The people of the
United States are united 10 the opin on that
the asssssius and the dynamite con,pirators
ought to be consigned to the penjteatiary
and the gallows which properly claim them.

the Irish in their noble purpose to secure the
freedom OF their native land, there can be

There was much discussion and some de-
NAL and display of indignation some months
ago On account of an American consul max
ing known that there were complaints in En-
gland about American modes CT packing
cotton. Whatever truth or want of truth
those compl aints have in Liverpool or Man.
chester, there now comes 10 hand repetition
of precisely the same kind Of complaints
from GeDos, in Italy. Sigs. Francis Scrac-
caluga & Sons, Eigari & D-feIrerari, Julio
Carlo, Clio and Ulo Gerard StelIaUi Soiacca-
luga, Figari & Ferrol and Figari & Bixio,
merob ants of Genoa, have written TO Mr.
HaseltoD, the American consul, st .ting that
of late years they have not bought American
cotton with their former confidence, b cause
they do not fnd the cotton an the same bales
equal In quAiity, differing, as they some-
times do, at opposite sides and inferior in the
Hliddie. Many lots, ON opening, nave a shsrp,
musty smell from damp cotton; there ia also
two or three per cent. loss Of weight; the
moisture often Injuries the quality Of the cot
ton. AS some bales sre in good, others IN
bad condition, it is thought the wetiiug is
done by desigB; some bales have lost much
n weight; Others none. Ia some bales soil
is found; in others, the sseepings cf the
storehouse, put there designedly; il sQme,
pounds of sand or seeds are often found. In
some cases, especially after March, bales are
found with the cotton damaged, before being
shipped, by being left exposed. Thin, old,
weak bsndsges are often used, by which
much cotton is lost in handling; sometimes
heavy bapdsges SIRE put on TO increase the
weight. All this decreases the value OF
American cotton, in SONS cases causing East
India to be preferred. II will, therefore, the
Genoa merchants conclude, be TO the meri-
can planters interest, frat, to have each bale
of equal quality; second, not TO We,
the cotton; third, to keep The cotton
sheltered in stcrehouses; fourth, TO bind the
bales strongly, but no heavier than The usual
tare. These co nplsints are serious, and, be-
ing from another country than the former
ones, have double claim II attention. Ii
will be noticed that il is rot the bulk Of the
American cotton that is objected to, but
what is evidently the work OF some uupriu-
