FATHER DORNEY.

Rev Maurice J. Dorney, the patriotic young priest of Chicago who by carrying Egan's package of letters across the ocean to Parnen made possible the detection of Figott as the forger of the Times letters has performed service that ought to give his name place in history. The young clergyman is we'll known to the editor of the DEMOCRAT; having been g classmate with him for about fifteen months at Baltimore. Then as now he was always earnest, always patriotic always enthusiastic for the land of his fathers, and ready to spend himself ir anything that promised to bring benefit to Ireland.

THE TIMES COMES DOWN.

Events have crowded themselves in the last few days of the Parnell investi gation. It having been clearly proven that the letters on which .the London Times built its base charges against Par nell were forgeries, that Pigott was the forger, and that foul libel had been perpetrated on the Irish leader, the Times reluctantly makes confession of its infamy and acknowledges the wrong it has done. The Times says:
 MT Parnell having in the witness box stated that the letters were forgeries. we accept in every respect the truth of his statement and deem it right to ex- press our regrets most sincerely at being induced to publish them. This expres- sion of regret includes the letters falsely attributed to Messrs Egan, Davitt and O'Kelly. We firmly believed that the letters were genuine and it must be evi dent to all reasonable persons that il conspiracy existed the Times was victim ized by and was not a party to it.
 It goes without saying that this is nc adequate reparation of the injury don, to Parnell. The Times must do more i it would retain the respect or the conf dence even of its supporters. It should reimburse Parnell and his friends fol the money they have been forced t, spend in seeking a vindication iron charges that the most ordinary prudence should have prevented from ever SC ing light.
 The Times should pay all the expenses of the inquiry-and then the men wh, have brought it to its present position should follow the example of Juda Iscariot and go out and hang themselves

to the cause in which he has distin- guished himself. The circumstances under which Father Dorney came to be the bearer of the package that was the seal of Parnelrs redemption were sin
 gular and seemingly accidental-they were framed by the hand of Providence itself. He received a telegram from Alexander Sullivan of Chicago, whose name has figured prominently during the trial, asking him to meet Patrick Egan at railway station in New York the night before he was to sail for Liver pool. He did so and was told the duty hat had been imposed upon him. They sat up all night. The priest learned the whole story and was able to make it clear to Parnell He told Parnell he had carried that package with more solic- itude than if it had been millions; for if it were lost all the gold the Irish race could send to help him in his trial could not replace it. He expressed to him the anxiety of Egan and Sullivan for the safety of the package, and when its real nature and inestimable value became apparent to Parnell, the home rule ,ader was deeply affected
 Father Dorney stands before the world and the Irish people to-day as one of the greatest patriots that draw the breath of life. A simple, brave, gifted and heroic man, his ma ne Will live in history as that of one who flashed, like the star of hope to the drifting mariner, across the path of Parnell, bringing him courage and redemption when the dark clouds of infamy and villainy seemed about to overwhelm him. That he may live to see the land he loves so we'll and for which he has braved so much rise from the wreck of sorrow and gloom and take its place once again among the nations of the earth is the hope of all in every land who admire the heroism that has marked the course of Father Dorney.
