A PAPAL ENCYCLICAL.
DUBLIN, July ia papal encyclical
letter was read to-day in all the Catholic
churches in the diocese of Dublin. In it
thd pope says he heard with regret that
excited meetings had been held at which
inconsiderate and dangerous opinions re-
garding the recent papal decree had been
uttered, even the authority Of the decree
itself being unspared. He has seen
with pain forced Interpretation put
on the decree, and statements made
that it was prepared without sufficient in
quiry having previously been made. The
pope, strongly denying this assumption.
states that tue decree was based upon most
complete information; that previous to its
issuance he held interviews with the Irish
bishops on the subject, and sent tried and
trusted delegates to Ireland to inquire into
and report on the true condition Of affairs.
AFFECTION FOR IRELAND.
His holiness reiterates his affection for
the Irish people, and says he has always
urged them to keep within the bounds of
justice and rights. He refers to a
Communication to Cardinal McCabe in
1881, adding: LAS the people were led on
with gradually increasing vehemencs in
pursuit of their desires, and as there We're
not wanting those who daily famed the
flame, a decree became a necessity" The
bishops, he says, must remove all miscon-
ception and leave no room for doubt as to
the force of the decree. The whole system
of the plan of campaign and boycotting is
condemned as unlawful.
A letter from Archbishop Walsh Of Dub
lin, which accompanied the pope's letter,
was also read The archbishop says: 1.-THE
agitation referred to is now ended, under
the resolutions recently adopted by =. the
bishous Hopo has arisen within the past
few days that before tho close of the pres
ent session parliament will provide for the
more urgent needs of the hour. The people
may await in peace fuller legislation at the
next session.
The encyclical letter is dated June "A.
It causes intense dissatisfaction at Bray.
People left the church during the reading Of
the letter.

RANDALL RESTFUL.
His Removal May be Possible the Last
of the Week.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-This has been
quiet day at the Randall residence, and
one marked by less anxiety than the two
preceding days. Mr.. Randalls condition
is better, and he has regainel some of the
strength lost by him Friday. Since Friday
night there has been no occurrences of hem
orrhage, and the members of the family
are much encouraged on this account, and
are more bright and cheerful than yester-
day. Mr.. Randall had a good sleep last
night, and has rested easily all day, fre-
quently dosing off in short maps.
A MEDICAL CONSULTATION.
The three doctors had a consultation in

Lincoln and Waller assured the family that
the patient was better than he has been for
two days, and should the improvement con-
tinue he may be removed from the
city the latter part of this week
His case, however, is still considered very
dangerous, and it will take a long time to
recuperate his diminished vitality The
nourishment given him was slightly in
creased to-day and he was allowed to chew
some beef aud swallow the juice.

Poor Receipts.

Poor Receipts.
From the QuttplaH, (Ga.) Herald.
Notwithstanding Brooks has increased
her shipments of melons over those Of last
year at least 200 carloads, yet the result is
not as satisfactory as was that of the pre-
vious season. A number of causes ars
| assigned for this, but the chief
one is excessive transportation
charges. The leading meoE growers
are, almost to "A man, in favor of abandon
ing the business unless relief from the trans
portation companies is assured. To insure
unity in the abandonment of the business,
it is suggested that the alliance take charge
of the matter. As the alliance men own
nearly all the available melon land,
they could refuse to rent to others outside
OF the alliance for melon purposes.
| We doubt the wisdom of this course for
several reasons, but mainly for the reason
il would offer tempting incentive to other
counties 20 increase their melon acreage in
the hope Of getting fancy prices, thus de-
feating the object Of the melon growers Of
our county. Would it not be better to hold
Il convention of the melon growers Of Geor-
gia for the purpose of formulating a plan
whereby their interests may be better pro-
tected, and at the same time appoint COM

and see what relief they will offerl

their demands by the st. Louis plat

essary to secure a party msjori'y J
favor of the bill. Mr.. Gibson decline
to yield, aud fnally the tide wa
: turned when Mr.. TIlden himself issue
