John Morley on Ireland.

The following are passages from the speech of Mir. John Morley, delivered in Newcastle on the 7th of February:
 was speaking on Saturday last with one of the ministers in the new Cabinet who had governed Ireland twenty years ago. Then, as many of you may remember, there was 8 very formidable conspiracy, a conspiracy of the most dangerous character, in Ireland. A network of reasonable associations had spread over the land, and the country seem ed to be on the verge of an armed insurrec tion In order to meet this formidable emergency, Parliament, through the Lord Lieutenant of the time, gave the power of depriving by his own authority as many as he pleased of their personal freedom. He is sued, think, nearly thousand warrants of arrest within couple of days, and he suc- ceeded in striking blow which broke the conspiracy to pieces. Violent coercion of that kind is undeniably effective in striking & blow; but violent coercion of that kind is not, and can never be, the instrument of 8 regular and permanent government by free people. And I may say that nobody is more fully persuaded of that than the minister who made use of the instrument for tenn porary purpose twenty years ago. want you, when you are considering whether you should vote for me or my op- ponent, to consider what the coercion means of which he will have to be supporter. Ii it is to be effective, it must be very strln- gent. If it is stringent, on Lord Salisbury's policy of persistency and continuity in poll cy, you must keep it up for ten, or twenty, or thirty years "Forsyer,' says some gen. gen to carry on forever. If your coercion is to be effective, you must put down public

EASTERN Vs. WESTERN BUTCHERS
 The advance recently ordered by the trunk line roads in freight rates upon live stock and dressed meats from Chicago will, it is believed, seriously interfere with an ina portant industry, and raise the price of meat to eastern consumers. The advance takes effect on March 1st. The present rates from Chicago to New York are % cents for live cattle and 43 1-2 cents for dressed beef; the advanced rates will be 35 cents for cattle and 65 cents for beef There is, in both present and future rates, heavy discrimination against dressed meats, which is accounted for by the fact that upon livestock ship ments the roads are paid for carrying the refuse parts of the animals. It is estimated in New York that prices to consumers will be advanced from two to six cents per pound on beef and mutton.
 Of course the men who have been making money in Chicago killed beef are very much disturbed over what they call move by railroad presidents to benefit the great Hive cattle kings of the East. MT. Armour thus complains: MT. Fink would have the pub lie believe that under his new tprinciple, ]" when the cattle shipper pays 8 cents on his live cattle, gross weight, he really pays 65 cents hundred on the net produce of those cattle in the form of beef at New York. Let us see if this be so. Forty thousand pounds of live cattle at 35 cents equal $40. Live cattle yield an average of Viper cent. dressed beef; 57 per cent of 10000 equals 22,900 pounds $40 freight on g, 800 pounds net produce gives a rate of 61 4-10 cents per hundred pounds from Chicago to New York, but the hides, tallow, hoofs, heads and offal also were brought through with the net beef for $40. The live cattle man has land cd them in New York free. The dressed beef shipper slaughters at Chicago and for wards his net product, 22,800 pounds, to New York at 65 cents per hundred, equal to $148. 20, and still has the horns, hides, tal low, heads, hoofs and offal which also go East, and upon which he must pay full tariff of 80 to 35 cents per hundred. This, then, is the way MT. Finks new principle works. He proposes to carry whole steer he charges the dressed beef shipper for half steer, that is, the net dressed beef, and further invite the dressed beef shipper to forward the remaining half of his steer at tariff rates.
 The matter is making great stir, and the railroads are freely accused of improper dis crimination. If their action does have the effect which many think it will have there will be more trouble.

OUR MANY WINTER BIRDS.
Winter Residents of Our Woods and Ffelds-An Interesting Paper by Br.
 Charles c. Abbott, of Trenton, N. J.

Winter Residents Ot our bOodS Auu Fields-An Interesting Paper by Br. Charles c. Abbott, of Trenton, N. J.. From the Christian at Work
 With the wind blowing at the rate of thir- ty miles an hour, the air thick with falling flakes of snow and the temperature twenty degrees Fahrenheit or less, one is, perhaps naturally, disposed to stay indoors and take it for granted that the entire bird world is of like way of thinking; but herein mankind sadly errs, for even during such days, both in the woods and fields, there are birds and birds As a proof of this one need only mention crows and snowbirds; but I am not speaking ironically but soberly, discreetly cautiously, when I say that our woods at least in midwinter often contain many species, usually even more individuals, than in midsummer, and almost equal the early spring, when the northward trooping war blers throng every nook and corner, even to the very outskirts of the town. The mer- it of the pudding is the presence of the plums, and winter is by no means fruitless battle if there be birds among the boughs. Quitting all reference to hawks and owls, let me mention, with brief comments, such birds as I have met with since Christmas during my rambles.
 
 now and then in search of it's fellows, but hale hearty birds, full of song, and by means disheartened because the frozen sod no longer yields them an abundance of worms. Be it clear cloudy, bluebirds come and go. To-day hundred perch upon the stakes of worm fences, warbling their May day songs and seemingly chasing insects as they dart into the air with snapping peaks; to morrow not one is to be seen. It matters not what may be the weather, they follow the whim of the moment, not the dictation of Jack Frost.
 The two kinglets, wee bits of impatienee wrapped in nut-brown feathers, chamber and twitter among the tall pines, now dipping down to the ground to snap their needle-like peaks in the cats ear, clinging to twig, while they warble bar of some half for gotten summer song, and then mounting to the tall trees very top, launch into dreary space, regardless of wind rain, of sleet or snow. Two titmice, the lordly tomtit with his jaunty crest; the cheerful chickadee, the former making the woods to ring with his earnest invitation to ramble therein, "Here here, here!" the latter, ever winsome as it cbirps in more subdued tones, sChick- k-a-dee- des-dee-de; winter has no terrors for me-for mel" Two restless nuthatches, near cous- ins, creatures of like tastes, yet, strange to say, never at 1oggerheads.

accompaniment on the most resonant tree in all the woods. Then an interIude. Not a mournful silence either, keeping one sadly shivering as the wind swept by, but only a brief waiting until host of linnets dropped among the trees and sang sweet hymn of thankfulness that such sunny hooks as this were vouchsafed by kindly nature to our winter birds. Yet no sooner does November roll around than the poets corner of the country weeklies and the essayists' pages of the pretentious journals teem with regret at the sad silence of our woods in winter or gush with nonsense about dreary snew-clad fields

'rascally comparative must only make the republic ridiculous, flor she either wants the strongest navy in the world or none.''
 The Evangelical Ministers association of Massachusetts asks the legislature for a law prohibiting cities and towns forbidding the public reading of the scriptures, the preach ing of the gospel or the orderly worship of Almighty God upon any of the public grounds in the towns and cities of the com monwealth. Rev. Dr. A. J. Gordon, H. L. Hastings and William F. Davis were fined last year for preaching on Boston Common without permit. the fact being that the com mittee voted to grant no permits to preach on the Common on Sundays. The ministers claim that preaching on the Common is an ancient right, and that twenty days after the announcement was made that no permits to preach would be issued, Buffalo Bills Indian performance was allowed on Sunday after noon at Beacon park by the city authorities. It alse said that on the Sunday when the city was draped cn account of Gen. Grants death, the city hired band to play on the Common. And the ministers think that this inconsistency is not jewel.

Consumption
 Conquered '!
WHEN THE DOCTORS COULD
 DO NO MORE.

CHAS. A. CABRERA, 32 Hawley Street,
 Boston, Mass, writes:
 Tone year ago I was apparently far gone with Consumption that my life seemed only question of days rather than months. With my faith in the ability of physicians to help me all gone, I tried almost every known remedy, with no apparent benefit. Finally, as last-resort, I was induced to try Dr. R. c. Flowers Lung Cordial. The very first dose gave me relief and with the first bottle took new lease of life, and can honestly say today that one spoonf. l of this remedy is worth more to the sufferer from Lung troubles than a gallon of any other known remedy. A bottle of it is now one of my choicest possessions, and at the first symptom of cough or cold I fly to it for the relief it never fails to give"
 DIR. FLOWERS LUNG COR- DIAL is without question the most wonderful Lung remedy ever discovered. It eradicates the germ of CONSUMPTION as no remedy has ever been known to do. It stands without a rival for COUGHS, COLDS, BRON- CHITIS, ASTHMA and CON- SUMPTION.

TWO Wealtny EnSIlSn SecIS WHICH arc ie- ported to make no converts are the Unita- rians and the Quakers. The latter are be- lieved to keep a closer scrutiny to the members than any other religious commun1- ty snd estimate their numbers in England at 15, ,000. These include no poverty-strick- en persons, although there are some to whom assistance is given from the funds as- signed for the purpose The Quakers are perhaps the wealthiest class in England. They are well represented in the legislature, but while friends have reached the privy council and baronetage Quaker peer has yet to be created.
 There has been more than the usual num- Der of revivals of religion this winter, and one of them has been among the young In dians in the school at Lawrence. It began in a prayer meeting organized voluntarily by . few of the young men. The interest grew, and soon another prayer meeting was organ ized by the Chsyennes 1n the school who could not speak English. This melted the Osages ts start prayer meeting where the services were conducted in their language. Then the young squaws must have their meeting, and nearly every pupil attends one, and often more Over hundred of the pupils think that they have been convsrted, and on Sunday many of them were baptized, most of the clergymen of the city being present and assisting.
