with men in common working garb, Orange

and yells and imprecations against US broke
from the crowd. A knife was drawn at Father
DeLargey, and threats of throwing US over the

said to us: We cannot have mass or an open
mission; am not going to pass under Orange
arches or flags nor shall we submit to indignity.
We replied that we should claim the protection
OF the stars and stripes. We telegraphed the
United States consul, and Bishop Mcdonald
telegraphed the Newfoundland Governor On
Monday the war ship Tenedos and the ST. Johns

A SDiteful Rebel Clerk.

Washington Republican.
About A. NJ Thursday, lady CLERK in the
Pension Office, appointed from Tennessee, sat
reading her newspaper, when a fellow clerk
stopped at her desk and remarked:
Poor General Grant is dead"
The lady from Tennessee glanced up and re-
marked: Il am glad he is. and l wish they were
all dead"
Much shocked, the lady passed on. A little
later another clerk remarked that, while sad
over General Grants death, one should at the
same time be thankful that his suferings were
ended The lady from Tennessee again com
mented:
He has not suffered half enough"
This is from the same person who who few
months ago, when a company of ex-confederate
leaders were marching up the avenue, and a
clerk in the office, late a Union soldier com
mented upon the fact that they carried no Amer
lean flag, hearing his comment, made answer:
Il should like to know what they should want
to carry that dirty rag for?"
This would seem to be a case of offensive
partisanship."

May General Grants life was very uncertain.
His physicians had almost given up hope, and
his death was expected hourly. Proftin g by
their experience in President Garfeld's death,
and appreciating that when Grants occurred
there would be great demand for black goods
for drapIng purposes, the Western merchants
purchased all the job lots of mourning material
that could be procured in New York, and the
result is great scarcity in this city For this
reason New York will be behind in decorations
over the Nations loss.'

evening preceding General Grants death be-
tween New York and Syracuse dry-goods
