(From the Cork Herald, March 5.)

Precisely at 5:45 the tender came along side the Wyoming. A few moments only elapsed when the deputation met Mir Soul ly of New York, the gentleman in charge of the remains, who is himself native of Queenstown Mrs Francis, widow lady, a sister of the late MT Meany, also accom- panied the remains. MT Dpran, on being introduced, said that the deputation had come out to view the remains of a departed patriot who had during long life strug- gled hard for Ireland. He regretted that the deputation was not more numerous, but explained that it was owing to the un- certainty of the vessels arrival that it was not so. Arrangements had been made
 however. at Queenstown to give the re
 mains a fitting reception as early as Friday last, and the good bishop of Cloyne had, through his administrator, Father Barry, given permission for his remains to be laid in the cathedral, the late MT Meany being sincere Catholic. He (Mr Doran) re- gretted the melancholy circumstance that brought MT Scully on such voyage at such an unreasonable time, but he be- lieved all Irishnen would thank him for the sacrifice he had made and the patriot ism that inspired it. The case containing the casket was then lowered on to the deck of the tender and covered by the Ameri- can flag. A pair of beautiful floral harps were then laid on the case, and great profusion of lilies, tied with orange and green ribbons, were laid on it. One of the harps was labelled ''From the Press Club" (New York;, of which the deceased was a member, and the other was labelled "With tho Sympathy of the Fifth Ward Branch of the Irish National League" and was surrounded by the motto, ''With Us
 for Us, of Us" The following permissio.
 was obtained from the United States au- thorities prior to the removal of the re- mains-"Permission is hereby given to re- move the remains of Stephen Joseph Meany, aged 63 years. Place of birth, Ireland; place of death, Waterbury, Conn.,, February 8, 1883. Cause of death, cry sipelas. Place of interment, Ennis"

webster,s Rochester Speech.

IT'S an old story, but historically accu-
rate and very good, which L. B. Proctor
has beer telling the lawyers of the State
Bar association at Albany, of the speech
he heard Daniel Webster make once at
Rochester after a dinner in which cham
payne vas a leading ingredient. The
speech was a short one for reasons too
potent for wen greatness to withstand,
and it went thus: ''Men and women
or, more properly, ladies and gentlemen
of Rochester, am glad to see you
and nm glad to see your noble city of
which you are so proud. Gentlemen, saw
your falls, which l am tool are $50 feet
high. What a tremendous height And
this is a most interesting fact. Gentlemen,
Rome had Caesar, her Scipio, her Brutus,
but Rome in her proudest days had never
a waterfall $50 feet high. Gentlemen,
Greece had her Pericles, her Demos
themes and her Socrates, but Greece in
her palmiest days, never-no. never
had u waterfall $50 feet high. Men of
Rochester, go on with your great water
fall. Go on! No people ever lost their
liberties who had n waterfall 100 feet
high

tails cut short his eloquent tribute to the

POLITICAL CLUBS.

1t is high time that the matter of more
thoroughly organizing the Democratic
party of the territory WIS being earnestly
considered, for on thorough organization
must depend the chances for success in
the elections next fall. Organization Is
especially desirable at once among the
younger members of the party and the
work cannot be commenced too soon in all
parts of the territory.
The St. Louis Globe Democrat in a re-
cent issue, speaking OF the organization
of political clubs, very aptly says: Such
clubs are composed mainly. as a rule, of
the young and aggressive members of the
party-the element that creates cnthusi-
asm and gives to a campaign its practical
and c%onquering vigor. The first cleo
ton of Lincoln was largely due to
organizations of this description.
There are certain facilities Of success in
politics which can only be reached by
enlisting the active interest of voters who
are fond of doing things theoretically and
VIKING 10 give close attention 10 uetalls'
The orators are useful in their way, and
the newspapers render good service in
another way; but after all, the best results
are brought about by the clubs that make
it a point to appeal directly to individual
voters and to promote party discipline and
confidence. One such agency in every
voting precinct is the most advantageous
thing that a party can have, as expert
ence has fully demonstrated Nothing
e'se can be made to answer its purpose,
and the party that tries to dispense with
it is certain to suffer accordingly"
This feature of party work has been
already too long overlooked in the terri
tory. The time to be up and doing is the
present.

A Malay Running Amuck.

The nearest thing in nature to a Malay
running amuck is the conduct of an ele-
plant who goes must" Both do all
the violent mischief in their power with
out notice or warning. Neither is usu-
ally spared, when he returns to a calmer
frame of mind, by way of seeing whether
his reformation will endure or whether
he will relapse. The popularity of amuck
is that, though the result of a momentary
passion, it seems to depend, in the Ma
lays mind, on a reasonable belief that to
run amuck is, in certain circumstances,
the right thing to do. 1t is inconceivable
that sudden news of the death of a rela-
tive should naturally prompt any man to
murder every human being he meets.
No; amuck is a convention, though a
queer one, like poetry, or any other art.
Civilized man writes "In Memoriam"
where the Malay runs out and slices all
and sundry. Both performances are
charms against grief, and at the same
time are expressions of emotion. But
when civilization wears mourning and
writes poetry, and when most uncivilized
tribes also wear mourning, blacken their
faces, tear their clothes, and perhaps hack
themselves with knives, the Maryland

The anti-prohibition people Of Sioux
City, Notwithstanding the iowa state law,
are making a determined effort to reopen
saloons. The plan is to sell in original
packages liquors which have been import
ed from Canada. An attempt will also be
made to sell under the recent decision of
the United States Supreme Court original
packages of liquor shipped from other
states. About twenty saloons will open
Tor business. The attorney for the law
and order league says there'is no way OF
preventing the open sale of liquor im,
ported from Canada. but questions the
right to sell liquor imported from other
states. Lively times are in prospect.

Among the remarkable reasons adj
vanced by the Chinese for opposing the
introduction of steamboats, on the Upper
Yangtse is the allegation that n very
fierce and strong species Of monkeys live
along the river where it breaks through
the mountains, and that they would not
fail to hurl large stones from the heights
down upon the steamers, probably sink
ing them, while the authorities would be
powerless to prevent the outrage or arrest
the offenders.
The real obstacle in the way is not
monkeys, but about 90, 900 junk men, who
think steamboats, would take away their
present means of livelihood.-New York

ally sensitized plate; from tins a positive

by the aid of a solar camera and a spec

produced in ColOrs on the basis without
the aid of handwork or brush. The col

specially prepared and capable of subdi,
vision to the 1S0-millionth of an inch,
When the colored picture is produced by

1t is an interesting fact that not only
is the presence of extensive growths of
the willow found to be anti-malarial in
its influence, but that from a certain
species of this same beautiful tree, or its
bark, is derived the comparatively new
but well known a%ntiseptic preparation
called salicine; it is of a pure, bitter taste,
highly febrifugal in quality, is largely
used in various solutions, also in surgical
operations, and is the most effectual pre-
v~entive of putrefaction in the system yet
known. For these purposes the willow
is now being extensively and systema&
ically cultivated. At the end of two
years the switches are from fou to seven
feet long, and are cut and gathered into
punches like sheaves of wheat; in the
stripping building they are stepped in
water and the bark at the larger ends
loosened for a couple of inches by ma
chinery; one by one the switches are
placed in the mechanical stripper and
with a pair of pliers are pulled through
with a sudden jerk, being then wiped off
with a wooden cloth, bundled, and laid
away to dry. All the leaves and bark
are dried and baled, the average yield be-
ing a ton to the acre, the willows com
handing, when dry, 5000 per tom

The rite of burning the body after
death is held in high veneration by the
Buddhists, as they believe that by this
process its material parts are restored to
the higher elements. Whereas burial.
or the abandonment of the body to dogs
n v%ultures, inspires a peculiar horror,
since, according to their belief, the body
must then return to the earth and pass
through countless forms of the lower
orders of creation, before it can again be
fitted for the occupation of a human soul.

l have had some experience with the
ruffed grouse. The peculiar noise made
by them while drumming is usually
made while the bird is standing upon a
log, but the log has nothing whatever to
do with h sound produced. The bird
while drumming assumes an upright po-
sition and droOps his wings until the
flight feathers almost or quite touch the
log or other perch on which he stands.
He then, by an intense muscular effort,
makes quick, spasmodic beats with his
wings. In doing this the ends of the
wing feathers may, and perhaps m
times do touch the log; but it is the in
tense culver of the flight feathers, as they
come in contact with the still air, in the
short and intensely rapid beats that pro
duce the soft, yet powerful and far reach
ing sound. No impact of a feather OF
feathers with a solid substance-especially
a moss covered log-could ever make a
sound capable of being heard for a quar-
ter of a mile. The air seems to be filled
with the sound, soft as it is, and it seems
to come to you from every direction, so
that it requires a quick and practiced ear
to locate it correctly. This is proof posi-
tive hat it is produced by vibratory nc
ton in the air, and not by the impact of
two solid substances.-Cor. American

Cooks of old were considered a sacred
race; even their fingers were consecrated
to the deities. The thumb was evoted
to Venus, the index finger to Mars, the
middle finger to Saturn, the next to the
sum-, and the little one to Mercury.
Imagination has so much to do with
pleasures of the palate that impudence,
conceit and |boastfulness were held to be
necessary qualities to the profession.
Hear one modest cook: Il may say l
nave discovered the principle of immor-
tally, and that the DIOR of my dishes
would recall life into the nostrils of the
dead" Bechamel claimed that with a
sauce he had invented a man would have
no conjunction in eating his own grand
father.
Great and grateful stomachs have not
hesitated to bestow marks of appreciation
upon the minds hat catered to them. 1t
is claimed that women don't nov a good
dinner when they see it, or, rather, when
they eat it. Au contraire, it was Cleo
patra who went into such ecstacies ovoi
q certain repast that Antony gave the
cook thereof a city. Coming down to
the conquest, William was so enchanted
with a fine white soup his chef invented
that he made him lord of the Manor of
Arlington. The Emperor Alexander
took off his own finger a superb diamond
ring to place it on C%avenie's. 1t is said
the latter burst into tears of gratitude
and the Austrian cooks burst into tears,
too-of jealousy. English noblemen and
Judges of the bench have from time to
time been so seduced by culinary charms
that they have led the presiding genius
Of the pots and pans from the kitchen to
the altar, and in so doing have fire.
