VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.


James Dillon on O'Donovan Rosa.
To the Editor of the Globe:
am sorry to hear of anybody SO forget
ting himself as to express.an opinion encour-
aging assassination, where our laws are suf-
ficiently provided with the means of dealing
with any or all persons who would be guilty
of the violation of law or order.
We fail to see so far where O'Donovan
Rosa has violated any law that should Justly
crminate him in the eyes of public opinion.
The American people have always been
indignant at the injustice done to Ireland by
England. Her scholars and her statesmen,
such as Wendell Phillips, and host of others
that have seen and felt how a nation such as
Ireland has been used By that despotic power
"a power known in the history of nations
to be destructive by reason Of her greed of
conquest. In 1S4S, England, by her unjust
and ubiquitous laws starved a million Of
the Irish people, and barbarously sHd bru-
tally treating O'Donovan Rosa by tying his
bands and feet and throwing him in dun
geon, and al for the right of assuming that
man should be governed by good laws, but
England knows no good law for Ireland.
Now we appeal to the public and to the gen
erous, free American people whether Ireland
would not be justified in exacting al the
point of the bayonet the rights which have
been denied to Ireland by that piratical
power. Let America not be deceived by
England's apparent good will towards her.
She would use the same means she has used
towards Ireland if she only dared. Let US
not be deceived by these men who have been
interviewed, because they do not voice the
sentiments of the people.

Syllabus-This is an action in the nature
of trespass for taking or converting personal
property. The defendants justify as condi-
tons of the vendor who sold the property to
plaintiffs, alleging in the answer that such
sale was rs to them as such conditions wholly
fraudulent and void, because made with in
tent TO defraud.
Held that upon its appearing that plain
tiffs bought the property in good faith
without any knowledge of the fraudulent iu-
tent, and that they have paid the purchase
money in part before notice of the frau du
lent intent, cannot In this action, at least,
avail themselves OF the equitable rule by
which, when the whole purchase price of the
property, conveyed by vendor, with intent
to defraud his creditors, to an honest vendee,
has not been paid. the sale may be treated
as void and the vendee placed in statu quo
By restoring what he has paid and other
wise reinstating him.
Query, whether this equitable doctrine Is
applicable TO fraudulent transfers OF personal
propertyl

siberia" SplendidIy Given at the Grand.

BARLEY Campbel's beautiful and re-
alisiic melo-drama, ''Siberia," con-
tinues TO attract large and de-
delighted audiences at the Grand. The
drama is a marvel of scenic fleet and in
few PLAYS have the climaxes been so adroitly
coutrived and worked up. The play pos
sesses strong and peculiar dramatic Interest
from the fact that the pot deals with scenes,
incidents and motive. which have their fouD-
dation in recent human history and fact. II
possesses to high degree the elements Of
sensationalism while at the same time there is
no wide divergence from the truth.
The audience last night was the largest of
the week, and as on former presentations II
was carried away by the stirring incidents Of
the plot and the beauty Of the scenery. The
drama Is also in the keeping Of most capable
actors. The same play tonight.
IN THE RANKS.
The sale OF seats for this spectacular play
opens at the box Office of the grand to-mor-
row morning; the scenic effects Of the
drama are highly spoken Of, and some idea
of the way in which the play IL mounted
may be bad from the fact that the scenery
alone weighs eleven tons. The engage
ment opens next Monday night.

THE RIVER COMMTTTEE.

The following from the Memphis
Avalanche will meet with the hearty
endorsements of every citizen of this
District. Every word the Avalanche
says of Mr.. Catchings is true, and we
predict before many days of the ses-
sion have passed, he will be recognized
as n o. the most able and influential
members of Congress:
The river and harbor committee as at
present constituted has given the coun-
try nothing but disappointment. Its
laundering attempts to frame an ap-
propriate bill last winter that would
be acceptable to congress were farcical
in the extreme, and the people, or at
least the people of the Mississippi val.
ley have settled into a feeling Of hope
lessness as to any good results to ensue
from its deliberations in this Congress.
We hope that Speaker Carlisle will
reorganize this committee, and with
out presuming to suggest any specific
removals therefrom, we ourselves, and
doubtless all the people Of the valley,
would be glad to see the newly.elected
representative from Mississippi, the
Hon. I. c. Catchings, put on that COM
mittee.
Gen. Catchings is a nan of broad
and enlightened views on all questions
of craftsmanship. a man somewhat of
the Lamar tyye. AS Encouragement
of Mississippi, he won for himself a
very high reputation as a %iurist, and
received nothing but encomiums at
the hands of the bar. He is n of
Mississippi's most promising sons and
we predict for him a brilliant career.
he is moreover the representative
of the "Shoestring" district, consisting
of most of the riparian counties of the
State, andis intimately connected with
the subject of river improvement,
which he has made a special study.
1t would seem eminently appropriate
that he should be placed on the river
and harbor committee, and we sim
cerely hope to see him occupy a place
on it, where he would prove very use
full.

In regard to the President pro TEN.
of the Senate, section % of the re-
vised statutes, which provies that "the
oath Of Office shall be administered by
the President of the Senate to each
Senator who shall hereafter be elected
previous to his taking his seat" ex-
cludes Senator elect Logan from the
list OF possible candidates for the
Presidency Of the Senate pro TEN.
Should his supporters for that office be
numerous enough and unwiSe enough,
they might put some one of their
number in the chair to administer the
oath to Mr.. Logan and then elect him
to the Presidency pro TEN. at the
first convenient opportunity, which
would, no doubt, soon present
itself. But the New York Times
enters its protest against such a pro-
ceeding, in the following vigorous
language:
We do not look for any such pro-
ceeding. however. Whatever his zeal
Gus friends may propose in his behalf,
Senator Logan is sensible enough to
understand that he is the one member
of the Senate who cannot with pro-
priety take this office. Nearly five
millions of people last year recorded
themselves against the proposition that
John A. Logan should stand next the
President of the United States in the
order Of succession and defeated it.
For party men in the United States
Senate to- assume the responsibility of
reversing this express and positive
decision of the people at large would
be so obviously injudicious and IRA
tional that the utterances of Republi-
can Senators in Mr.. Logan's favor must
be looked upon, we think, rather as
tokens of their personal good will to
him than as serious expressions of a
well considered purpose.

P%ITTsBURG, Dec. 2--The towboat
Iron City was blown to pieces this
morning about 2 o'clock while stuck
90 the bar at the head of Herr's
island, in Allegheny river. The
crew, which numbered six men, were
blown into the river. Engineer Geo.
Ashton was instantly killed, Fred jack
son fatally injured, and others serious
ly hurt. The vessel was burned to the
waters edge and is a total loss. About
6 o'clock in the evening the Iron City,
in running down the river. was swung
on to a bar, where she went badly
aground, just over the main pipe Of
the Philadelphia gas company. All
the evening and up to the time of the
explosion the vessel tried to back off
into deeper water. Shortly after 2
o'clock a final effort was made to get
her off the bar. The engines were
forced to the fullest capacity, but boil
ers could not stand the pressure and
collapsed. The conclusion from the
explosion was so terrible as to awaken
people in the upper end of the two
cities. Pieces of the vessel were
blown from the middle of the river,
where the boat was grounded, to the
Allegheny shore, 500 yards away.
Part of the cabin alighted on the roof
of Geerd's tannery, directly opposite,
on the Allegheny side. The water
was shallow and the crew, with the
exception of Ashton and Jackson easily
reached the bar within a few minutes.
After the explosion the river
banks and island became thickly
crowded with people. The few skiffs
that could be secured were at once
filled with eager crews of rescurers,
who FASTENED to the scene of the dis
aster. The ulviVors of the crew
were taken from the bar and rowed to
Allegheny, where all possible was done
for their injuries. Their names were
Robert Jackson, fireman, badly bruised
and scalded Joe Richardson, badly
injured Ex,C Councilman Smith Walk
er, severely hurt Billy Wently, leg
broken. Jas. Omsler, the owner, is
said to be severely injured. The re-
mains of George Ashton, the engineer,
was removed to his home.
The Iron City was built here eleven
years ago and was 1876 feet long and
Is feet wide. When built she was
considered an excellent craft and has
continually been engaged in harbor
loving. Her original cost was about
$4,000.
