The Virtne or a Good Sleep.

made ready for the next days work.
The work of the previous day is being
repaired. Nature is doing that herself.
She knows what the tired frame needs
Just rs she knows how to make the heart

A Blockade Runners Death.

The Charleston Ne,es and Courier of
yesterday reports the death in that city of
a well known pilot and noted blockade
runner, known through the South in the
days of the war,
"Capt, John B. Sassard, chief engineer
of the tug Relief, died very suddenly and
unexpectedly yesterday afternoon about
$3.50 O'Clock. The physician stated that
death had resulted from disease of the
heart. Capt. Sassard was "a years of age,
andwas native of this city. For over
thirty years he has been a chief engineer
at this port. During the war he was chief
engineer of the steamship Nashville on
her memorable voyage to Liverpool and
back, and for some time afterwards. He
was also chief engineer on number of
the blockade runners of the Crenshaw
Line. 1t was his proud boast TO say that
he had never failed on a single trip to
bring his boat to port safe and sound. AS
an engineer he was at the head of his pro-
fession. AS man he was quiet, unas-
suming, Industrious and conscientious to
a fault. He had very recently secured a
part interest in the Relief, and was begin
ming to get along we'll In the world. He
leaves widow and three sons as well as
large circle of warm friends to mourn
his loss"

PARNELLIs AMENDMENT.

A Violent Attack on the Irish Execu-
tive-MOre Men to Fill the Gaps in the
Ranks of the Invincibles.
LONDON, Feb. 26.-In the House of Com
mons to-day Mr.. ParnelI moved his
the Crown, attacking the EXECUTIVE in
Ireland for the administration of the
crimes act. The language of the amend.
ment is very violent. 1t refers to unjust
executions. In moving the amendment
Mr.. Parnell said if there has been any
reduction in the number of outrages in
Ireland, it is only because the
people are being kept down by the brutal
and terrible coercion act, administered
in brutal and terrible way.
He pointed to the fact that hardly any
person arrested under the Curfew clause
had been convicted, and proceeded to
show that the power of arrest had been
abused. He complained of the conduct OF
the Irish Judges, who, he said, were
mostly appointed for political purposes,
and were therefore unfit to try political
cases. When the people saw that the juries
were packed, and that the Judges had
turned Crown prosecutors, all sympathy
with law and order was destroyed and the
people inevitably became the abettors of
crime. If the government, after the
Phoenix Park murders We're committed,
had relied ON the sympathy of
the people instead of upon a
tyrannical act, Ireland would have
been pacitied. He protested agains
the proclamation of meetings and the
prosecution of the press. Freedom of
speech, he said, did not exist in Ireland.
In the Haynes and other murder cases the
juries were composed almost entirely of
Protestants, Castle tradesmen or ac-
quaintances of Earl Spencer, the
Lord Lieutenant, and the admins
tration of the law was detested by
everybody. He defed. the government to
continue TO govern Ireland without the
sympathy of the people. The amendment
that would not quench the spirit of Irish
nationality. He believed Mr.. Chamber
lain was one of the few English members
who correctly appreciated the Irish ques-
ton: This remark was greeted with
irOnical cheers. 80
Mr.. Parnell said the government has
now the opportunity to restore peace and
order in Ireland. He was confident of
victory, having a million of Irish in
America behind him.
Andrew Porter, Attorney General for
Ireland, replied, cOndemning the bringing
of charges without evidence and appealed
to the House whether Parnell's argu-
ment justified his atrocious charges
against the government. He then pro-
ceeded to rebut the charge of jury pack
ing. He explained that there were more
PrOtestants than Catholics upon Juries,
because the Protestants constituted a ma
jority of the whole panel. Earl Spencer,
he said, would no more think of interfer-
ing with the trials in Ireland than he
would those in English courts.
ParnelPs amendment was rejected by a
vote Of 1870 TO %.
DUBLIN, Feb. 26.-The police, it is
known, have obtained Information that
the names of six men have already been
enrolled to fill the gaps in the ranks of the
its members for murder in Dublin.
