the Irish Land Bill.
BIZ Gable to the United Press.
LONDON, August 20, 1854 very init
mate friend of General Boulanger scouts
lhe inference drawn from the Generals
lavish expenditures that he must have
been guilty of the enlightenment of public
funds of which he was convicted and
asserts that B%oulanger less than six
months ago secured the loan of e10O, 600
from a firm of French bankers in New
York city who had and who still have
faith in his ultimate success. According
to this statement Boulanger's present in
debtedless to these confiding New
Workers is over a million dollars.
1t is stated that Lord Salisbury has
already prepared his long promised bill
dealing with the land question in ireland,
but it will not be introduced until next
session, 1t is also stated that the Cabinet
are far from being united on the provi-
siops of the measure, and that Mr.. Bal
four particularly objects strongly to
many of its leading features.
Notwithstanding this, however, it is
expected that the ministers will be able
to reach common ground before the next
session by a few judicious notifications.
In the meantime Mr.. Balfour will bring
in his bill fixing judicial rents
in Ireland, which is intended as
a provisional measure, to remain in force
until the other can become operative.
This bill will, in all likelihood, be intro
duced this week, and it is expected that it
can pass without opposition, excepting
perhaps that of the Radicals, who will
probably oppose it because, il for no other
reason, the Irish members will support it.

was There Conspiracy2

The New York Herald prints today
a statement about the Maybrick case
which can hardly fail to raise a doubt
in the mind of any thoughtful and
unprecedented reader-such a doubt,
perhaps, as would entitle a prisoner
at the bar to a verdict of acquittal.
Not that it proves Mrs. Maybrick
innocent. but that it shows how essen
TALLY deficient is the proof of her
guilt.
The statement is made in the form
of ifty-three questions addressed pri-
marily to the Home Secretary. The
strongest point brought out relates to
the possibility of a conspiracy against
the prisoner. 1t is not necessary to
suppose that anyone intended to con
Wet her, guilty or innocent, but that
someone who thought her guilty took
pains to bring out all the evidence
against her and to cover up that
which might have served her. If any
such person was at work it is inn
possible to deny that the circumstan-
tial evidence in this case shrinks till
it becomes very weak for conviction.
1t is definitely proven that May
brick was an arsenic eater. He
bought the poison in the form of
white powders, and frequently-we
may say constartly-carried them in
his pockets. Immediately after his
death his clothing disappeared. Who
took it? Is it conceivable that Mrs.
Maybrick should do %? If not, then
somebody interested in proving her
guilt did it. True, the powders could
have been taken from the clothing;
but is it not easy to understand how q

A Violent Fathers Demand for His Chi
Refused.

A Violent Fathers Demand for His Child
Refused.
Lawrence Ondersight was sent by JUS
tioe Stilsing this morning to the peniten-
tiary for thirty days for d~isorderly con-
duct. He went to st. Francis Hospital
yesterday afternoon and demanded a
child of his who was at the institution.
The Sisters refused to let him have the
child because on a previous occasion
when they permitted him to take the
child he abused her so that she ran away
from him and back to the hospital.
Ondersight then called the Sisters vile
names and acted in such q diserderly
manner that they sent for a policeman,
Policeman Dodson, who happened to be
neal the hospital, responded to the Sis
ters' summons and arrested Ondersight.
1t is said that Ondersight's wife is now
lying at the hospital suffering from in
ternal injuries inflicted by her husband.

This paper Is Democratic IN principles

local questions.
a Guerilla Campaign.

Evidently the policy of the so-called
New County Committee is to make
trouble wherever it can. That is the
only construction that can be placed
upon its demand for election officers
and its threat of legal proceedings in
case its absurd and unreasonable re-
quest is denied. To throw embarrass-
ment In the way Of the Democratic
campaign-that is the plan.
The demand, which we are told is
to be made, for representation in the
State Convention is simply another
example of this policy. The commit
tee, of course, will not get representa-
tion. 1t does not expect it. 1t simply
wants, in the first place, to make
trouble in the convention. In the
second, to have an excuse for kicking
and growing through the election,
perhaps for boiling the Democratic
nominee.
To be forewarned is to be forearmed,
and doubtless the regular Democracy
will lay it's plans to counteract this
plan Of campaign. The exact amount
of damagei it may do cannot accurately
be gagged at this time. 1t will largely
depend upon the character of the local
nominations made by the regular com
mittee, as well as on those made by
the recalcitrants.

When savage people first come in
contact with the whites, none of the
wonders that they see is regarded
with suspicion than large sheets
of paper. The native is apt to regard
paper as a sort of cloth, and the fact
that it tears easily and is worthless
for most of the purposes to which
cloth is put conyinces him that it is
a fraud. One or two Congo travellers
have told Of the disgust with which
the natives at first regarded paper.

the lookout for sharpers, and it is

Savages soon find, however, that
paper is not intended to serve the
purposes of cloth. Then they cease to
look upon it as a fraud, but they do

person who did not see the danger OF
going too far might have taken
clothes and allS 1t is like a woman's
blunder-the blunder, let us say, OF
that servant who set the whole
machinery against Mrs. Maybrick in
motion.
The fact that Edwin Maybrick
found a pill box which had contained
arsenic, and on which the druggist
had written Mr.. MAVERICKS name,
was not discovered until the last mo-
ment, and then almost by accident.
Why, if all was fair and above board,
was not this important fact given out
at once?
If this shows a desire to conceal
evidence in Mrs, Maybrick's favor on
the part of those most likely to have
it, is it not more than probable that a
great deal of such evidence is still
withheld? H
AS the date when this unfortunate
woman is to die approaches, these
considerations gain an awful interest.
Nothing can SO offend the sense OF
justice in the human heart as this sus-
picion that she dies the victim OF base
conspiracy.

sensibility Is a Nuisance.

SenS1DllIty IS a nuisance
An English writer has recently sug-
gested that we We're wont to give excess
sive praise to the faculty of sensibility,
while we d~epreeiate it's opposite, or the
want of it, insensibility. 1t is clear.
he maintains, that almost every shade
OF insensibility has @ side of advantage
as well as of disadvantage. The world
forgets how very much tender sensi-
bility often interferes with the calm
Judgment necessary for right action
and the cool presence of mind which
is essential to effective execution.
What shall we say of the surgeon or
the nurse who is SO sensitive that the
sight of suffering disturbs the judg-
ment and makes the hand tremble
when a steady hand is most essential
to efficient work? 1t is obvious that,
for every purpose of alternating pain
itself, a certain measure of in~sensibility
to sympathetic pain is in the highest
degree advantageous, If not necessary.
The best nurses are the calmest
nurses, and they are very seldom the
ones who suffer most at the sight of
their patients suffering, and lone of
the great advantages which patients
feel on entering a hospital is that
their sufferings do not come back re-
fected from the faces of those around
them; that the sympathy they excite
is only a mild sympathy, and not one
which heightens their own pain,
Hardly a sufferer exists who is not the
better instead of the worse for seeing
that those around him are not over
whelmed by his sufferings-that, so
