PERHAPS this episode will make Rosa
martyr. The woman will certainly be a
heroine. But at all events Rosa has learned
that in carrying on murderous warfare
against England he has exposed himself 20
great personal danger; that crsnks with Eng
ish antecedents can be raised up even In
this fsr.awsy land, and above all he must be
impressed with the truth of that grand old
declaration as recorded by st. Matthew, that
call they that take the sword shall perish
with the sword."-New York World.
THE immediate result of the unfortunate
assault is likely to be an increase in the sub
scription Est of ODonovan and in the con-
tributions to his fund. An sgitator who
carries bullet in his back as testimony to

the British, or who has had bullet pain
fully pried ont of his back in the good
cause, has an immense advantage over an
sgitAter shose zeal in the cause only in
wolves him in lawsuits with other agitators.
The ultimate results may not be 50 agreeable

one half hour an English spinster, with a
little pistol the size of = perfume bottle, has
done more execution upon Rosa himself
than Rosa in twenty years of staggering
and roaring has done upon the English ma
ton; and it is another peculiar indication,
due no doUot to the difference of breed, that
when the English woman had imagined that
ii was time somebody should be hurt, she did
not send any one upon a dangerous errsnd,
and did not take care to be on the other side
of the ocean at the time bat went and found
the enemy and paid her respects to him face
to face.-New York Herald.
