A FRIEND OF THE OPPRESSED.
What IreIand's Greatest Newspaper Thinks OF
the Nomination OF Mr.. Blaine.


Blaine's nomination will be hailed with un-
bounded satisfaction by the Irish in America,
who have, no doubt been instrumental in its
accomplishment Blaine has always been a
steady champion of the Irish, and--w hat Is
nearly as good-a stout opponent of British In
tercsts. His conduct, especially in 1S67-S will
be long and gratefully remembered by Irish
men. When in '67 Augustus Costello was ar
rested In Ireland for "treasonable' speech
delivered by him In New York two years
previously, and sentenced to fIftcen years
penal servitude, Blaine, who was republican
leader In congress, made a series of powerful
speeches in his behalfand In behalf of Gen. d. +.
Burke aud others, which eventually succeeded
in securing their liberation. The Irish
men had their papers of American
citizenship in their possession, but they
were disregarded as a defence, or as u
protection against British law, and this
aroused much excitement and indignation in
the states Blaine's advocacy induced con-
gress to demand the release of the Fenians
from English custody, and when the British
cabinet refused, on the strength of the then
| existing treaty, the United States government
! threatened reprisals with respect 10 Britt sh
| subjects then in the states. England, being
well frightened, cayed in, as became her, and
| Costello, Burke, and the rest were released
| This triumph was mainly due TO the mastery
| advocacy Of Blaine, and the leaning he then
showed toward Irishmen has not since re-
| laxed. In the many comparisons that have
| been instituted between the functions of pres
dent of America and those of the English
| sovereign, perhaps, the most strictly accurate
is that which tells us that they are both sover
| elgns with the distinction that the queer
| reigns but does not govern, while the president
| governs but does not reign Should the de
| cision of the autumn election rest upon Blaine
we may be sure that the states will be gov
| erned during the next four years by q genuine
| fr lend of the Irish cause.

How n Ship Captain Won n Heredi-
tary Privilege.
Rome Later.


The holy week has begun to-day by
the presentation of beautiful palm to
the holy father. This palm is tho work
Of the Benedictino nuns. 1t Is made after
the design of the artist, De Simone. Tho
center Of the palm is a group of figures,
st. Ann, st. Joachim, and the Blessed Vir-
gin, surrounded by angels. Tho decora-
tions arc finely executed, all with leaves
Of palm. His holiness has received also
the present of 100 palm tree branches,
sent by the chapter of San Reno, repre-
sentod by Mgr Bresca. This monsiRnor
is the leading momber Of the Bresca fam
lily from San Reno, which has appeared
every year before the pope on Palm Sum
day since 1856. The privilege was granted
on the 10th of September, 1856, whom st.
Peters square was the theater of the
groat event. One hundred and forty
horses and nearly 1000 workmen, with
thirty-fivo machines, were raising the
great obclisk Of granite which now adorns
the center of the square. Architect
Dominic Fontain, with silver
trumpet, was giving the signals. A
deadly silence was preserved by the
presence of tho b1ngmap, who had pre-
pared gibbet by order of Sixtus, and
was ready to hang any one who disturbed
tho performances. Tho celebrated mono.
lith of tho old circus of Caligula wa,
nearly erect whom the chatting ropes be.
gan to give way. A powerful voice
shouted. "Acqua allie corde," or " Water
to the ropes W
The architect caught tho idea and com
piled with the suggestion. The obelisk
triumphantly roso on the pedestal. The
trespasser, however, was arrested and
brought before tho pope. Ho was one
Bresca, captain of sailing vessel from
San Reno.
"Why did you disobey my orders?'
asked tho pope.
Because / would rather die myself
than see hundreds killed by the fall o
the monolith."
'Well done |" replied the pope "thol
shalt hereafter hoist the pontifical flal
on thy vessel. What else can do To-
youP
The captain requested the pope to gran
him and his successors tho privilege o
supplying palms to the Church of st
Peter for Palm Sunday, and he obtained
the favor. For tho last three centuries
tho Brescas have appeared before tn,
pope on Palm Sunday.

The NabObs Who Impose on the Gullible Pub-
lie In Talking About Their Riches.
NetO York Sun.
If something more was wanted finally
to disgust everybody with Wall street and
frighten him away from it, this something
was admirably done last week. The
failure of men reported to be.arch million
aires is in itself strong disturbing ele-
ment. But when the very possibility Of
their failure is Indignantly denied by the
failing men themselves within n few
hours of their making an assignment, tho
business community is placed in tho posi-
tion of paymaster's heayily-laden chest
carried into the camp of cowboys and
road agents. Tho commotion produced
by the circumstances of Commodore Gar
rison's failure was of the most alarming
character. When confidence in public
statements OF facts is gone, the whole
business ediilce of a community falls to
pieces. when it becomes evident that no
plain, truthful statement of tacts from any
millionaire, bank president, or railroad
president can DO obtained, every man OF
sound mind locks up in his safe tho ready
cash he has got and sends oJoricho every
business except that Of which no has
absolute control himself. 1t is the fault
of lying millionaircs, lying bank presi-
dents, and lying railroad magnates that
