questions to be fought out by landlord and

THE RECEPTION,

On calling upon his eminence the other
morning L was ushered up a cold, stone flight
of stsirs into an immense square room on the
first floor, Ii h,ed garishly by eight large and
uniform ~windows, of the kind usually met
with in Eog'ish dissenting che pels and rail-
way station. In the center of the room was
a large table, covered with a shabby cloth.
Round this, and &c catered here and there in
various corners, stood a number Of gilded
Louis XIV arm-chairs, curiously alternating
with humber chairs of the common lodging
house pattern, examples of the very worst
kind OF Victorian furniture. On the dull,
red walls hung several picture5-scen Is from
the lives OF saints and m iTtyrs-and ancient
portraitP. The place of honor was filled,
however, by a portrait of Pope Leo XIII,
surmounted by a worm.eaten, red canopy,
facing which were two quantity carved and

London correspondence of the New York
Herald: "Woat does Cardinal Manning
think about Irelaud?" is a question which
has repeatedly been ssked by those inter
ested in the "distressful country" The car
dinai's great iofuence NUT surely have been
used at many stages of the quarrel between
the sister islandP. but whether 1t had been
used 10 a spirit Of ~friendliness to Ireland, or,
as come fancied, in a spirit OF hostility, was
a point upon which much speculation was
indeed INDUCED 10, but about which very
little wss known. His emineuce is not a
man who would be very likely 10 commit
himself, like certain over-ardent members Of
the Catholic hierarchy. by uniimely mauifes-

suppose there are 500, 900 or 10000 0 labor

ment cries aloud for Improvement. 1t is
only right that their material comfort should
be attended to. Hunger ard thirst and cold
are not things likely to promote peace and

should have the means Of decent livelihood
given them; they cinnot be allowed
TO starve if We are TO see an end
of agitation and discord. l have thought
over lhis point a good deal, aud it seems
to me that what the Irish laborer
most needs is a decent cottage and a patch o.

take, for some years the headquarters of 3
metropolitan rifle corps, and from the out
side looks far more like a warehouse or a
prison than the residence of a prince OF the
Cnurch. His eminence, who has an extreme
dislike Of cs'entation, styles his ~forbiddiug
abode simply the "Archbishop's Hou.e," and
rather prides himself, l believe, upon its
ugliness. The ~v4nities Of this world have
long ceased TO have aoy value in his eyes,
and though he is cred ted with being keenly
alive TO the fascination of power, he cares
nothing fJr the external evidences of pc Ser
which vulgar minds associate with pomp and
display. To say Thai the Cardinal Arch
bishop OF Westminster is in the fullest sense
OF the word an sscetic is 10 utter a truism.
His whole life since his conversion from
Professionalism has been one long seltmoitif-
cation. HIS spirit hes wsged war pers st.

the victory has been bought dearly at the
price Of health, and the cardinals mortal
frame has dwindled and wasted away till i;
seens rs but the very shadow OF a human
body. His eminence is far less sever. TO
those around him than he is 10 himself.
Yet the subordinate priests who Sal down to
table with him daily at the archbishop's
house sometimes murmur in their hearts at
the ultra-plainness of the fare set b,f IRE

in the distance, seeming TO taunt the cardi-
nal with the non-fnlf ilment of his cherished

greater than is usually taken by the COM
mon crowd in a race of the kind, where
but two horses are entered. The trim
figure of Olivette, and her record, on the
other hand, strengthened the faith of her
hackers and many OF them increased their
wagers. The race which followed justified
this feelirg to the fullest extent. A very
good start was made with 0livette little
in the lead. Olivette's ridenseemed to be
saving her, and when the first quarter-pole
was passed the flyers were neck and neck
and maintained this position for the next
quarter. At the half mile Olivette was
urged to do better and left her competitor
a length and half behind. In making
the turn Mayonaise recovered all she had
lost, and the gallant pair swept down the
home stretch neck and neck. They passed
the mile post at a tremendous pace,
Olivette having Mayonaise upon her
quarter and both straining hard for the
goal. .Olivette won by nearly two lengths.
Summary. Time :074. Olivette first,
Mayonaise second. Auction pools sold
500 on Olivette and SD on Mayonaise.
French mutuals paid s. so on Olivette.

A CIRCULAR from the secret airy states

United States Bottlers' Protective Associa-

exhibition of bottlers supplies, machinery,
materials, etc, has been postponed from
November 20 to December II, l., l3 and
II, 1883, and from Irving Hall to Ameri-
can Institute Hall, New York City. The
change has been made from the fact that
Irving Hall proved entirely too small to
accommodate the many who have applied
for space, and thus larger hall has been
secured, with consequent change OF
