dents and the corporation at Shamen, Cam

vengeance on the officers of they vessel, they

buildings of Thomas Rowe, Smith & Co., the
residences of w. Sanders, imperial customs
examiner, Stowell deputy commissioner of
customs, Dr. Wales, of the custom-house,
and Rev. j. Grundy and several
Others. The consuls, fearing the attack
would become general hauled down their
flags and dispatched a boat to Hong Kong
for assistance, the foreigners seeking shelter
aboard the vessels in port; and company
of Chinese military were ordered out, but
remained impassive spectators of depreda-
tions being committed. After destroying
the buildings, the mob burned the steam
launch belonging to the steamer Hankow,
and then set fire to the wharf. They after
ward proceeded to burn the French cathe-
dral, but the French residents, who had
gathered in a body, informed the mob that

Ohio,s Second Amendment.

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
There were I'll, sol votes in the State, and
800 Cos for the amendment. Subtracting the
800, sos from the III, 69l, we get the no vote
on the amendment, or the ballots counting
against it-39O, 983-that is to say, there were
that many citizens who voted, and did not
vote for the amendment There were, there
fore, 70, 375 more votes counted against the
amendment than counted for it. Or, if 3d.
1sS voters who are counted no had voted yes,
the amendment would have prevailed Now,

SIR STAFFORD NoRrHCOTE.
His Irish Visit Considered Personal and
Political Blunder.


Political Blunder.
Gable Special.
Sir Stafford Northcote's visit to Ulster is
universally regarded as huge personal and
political blunder. The copious streams of
wishy-washy chatter, with which he has
filed the newspapers for days. have afforded
incontestable proof of abysmal barrenness
of mind and expression. That the intellect
ual diet seems desperately light and unsub-
stantial is the comment of even the friendly
Times. Why. asks the less gentle World,
should he have placed on record this series of
proftless, STALE one-idead discourses, whose
sequel is riot and bloodshed? The Evening
Mail rabid organ of Dublin conservatism,
still more rudely describes its political
chieftain's oratory as a dose it must swal-
low at the risk of Indigestion Irish national
journals, like the Freeman's Journal, on
the other hand, charge Sir Stafford North
cote in passionate terms, with responsibility
Tor the sacklng OF convent, the death of a
nun and the other tragic incidents of his
visit Northcote has been frightened by
these onslaughts into partial retreat, and
has written a clumsy apology for the attack
on the convent He mildly deprecates Orange
professions. and eagerly seized on the oppor-
tunity of eulogizng the Catholic Church.
To sum up, Northcote has disguised all
parties in Ireland-the Orangemen, by his
occasional mildness to popery; the Wings,
by his silence on the land question; the Ma
tonalists by his indirect encouragement Of
outrages on their religion.
The Parnellite leaders already show signs
of a change of front in Ulster. Their game
of crushing the Wings with the assistance of
the Tories is transformed into the policy of
crushing the Tories by an alliance with the
Wings,

A Call for Government Interference.

CHICAGO, Oct. ia meeting of 5000
Irish-Americans, tonight. passed an extend
ed preamble and resolutions to the effect
that, as ODonnell, the slayer of Carey was
a citizen and ex-soldier of the United States,
and is now on trial for his life in the courts
of Great Britain, and as the crime charged
against him was of political complexion,
owing to the unhappy relations between
England and Ireland, and giving ground for
a reasonable belief that he is liable not to
secure justice, owing to national passion
and social prejudice, it is therefore
the duty OF the government of the United
States to exercise its power to secure him
fair trial, and the President is called upon to
give special instructions to the American le-
cation in London to zealously watch the
case and afford him all the aid and protec-
ton to which he is entitled as a citizen and
soldier of the United States. The Secretary
of State is requested to seek, through the
American legation, a courteous and complI-
mentary relation of bar or other rules which
may at present deny United States counsel
similar rights with the eminent gentlemen
of the English bar already retained for the
defense
