MIR. TreveIyan Answers the Questions Con-
corning Them.
LONDON. July 5.--In the Commons, to-
night, Mr. Trevelyan, Chief Secretary for
Ireland, replying to the question of William
O'Brien, member for Mallow, as to whether,
in view of the recent action of the emigra-
ton commissioners at New York, the depor-
tation of paupers from Ireland to the United
States would be stopped, said that in view of
the action of the commissioners orders would
be given to suspend grants OF money in cases
where it is supposed that former inmates of
work-houses are among those desiring to
emigrate. In reply to the question as to
what particular fund the money would be
taken from to defray the expense of carrying
back these emigrants and returning them TO
the respective warehouses from which they
had been sent, Mr. Trevelyan said it would
be premature TO speak in that regard.
Joseph Cowen (Radical), member for New
castle-on-Tyne, asked whether America
would allow .emigrants to land if Great
Britain allows them means of suStenance for
aperiod.
Mr.. Treyelyan replied that he believed
very few, indeed, of the state-aided emf
grants were paupers but he was still inquir-
ing into the subject He thought it was not
because of few pounds more or less that
the emigrants were returned. If Great
Britain could by any possible means meet
the objections of America she wonld adopt
such means, but he feared contributions of
public money would not meet the objec-
tionS.

YOUNG TRAVELLERS.
Two Little Girls Aged Six and Eight en-
Route to Hamburg.

Two Little Girls Aged Six and Eight en-
Route to Hamburg.
st. Louis Post Dispatch.
In the New York sleeper of the east-bound
Vandaia train this morning there were TWO
little girls that but for the tags hanging from
their necks by blue ribbons, would have at
tracted no attention at all Each tag gave
the name of the wearer, written in German,
their starting place and their intended des-
tination. Their names are Ida and Agnes
Luebkist, aged respectively eight and six
years. They came from Central City, Col,
and are bound for Hamburg, Germany,
accompanied by no one, but plenti-
fully supplied with money, letters of intro
duction and instructions as to how they
shall be treated en- route Ida, very SIN all
child for her age, but remarkably self-pos-
sessed and bright, said that their mother
died in Central City, Col, some time since;
that their father is still living there, but una
BILE to properly rear and educate his daugh-
tiers, and that they are on their way to their
grand parents in Hamburg Germany, where
they expect to live. They intend to make
the entire journey unattended, and seemed
well pleased at being alone. The letter
of Instructions to conductors places special
stress on the necessity of watching the
girls habits, and prohibits them eat
ing anything between regular meals or
drinking much water. They carried with
them a welI-filled lunch basket and money
to pay for one meal day while on the jour
ney, also the necessary amount for sleeping
berths to New York. At New York they are
to be taken in charge by the German society
of that city and given steamship passage to
Hamburg. That these little girls can make
such trip unattended with perfect safety,
is the best proof of the perfection of Ameri-
can means OF travel, as compared with that
OF any other country on the globe.
