THE MCCARTHY MANIFESTO.
LONDON, Dec. 10-The anti-Parnell
members Of the Irish parliamentary party
nave lSSu6u "
the Irish people. In this they say: Feel
ing bound to protect our cOuntry's cause
at whatever personal sacrifice, we found
ourselves under the sad necessity of ter
minating Mr.. Parnell's leadership. 1t
would have been easier 20 have left him
undisturDed, but such a course would
have left every man of US traitor to his
country Mr.. Parnell, disregarding our
appeals to remember the country, evinced
an ill-judged determination TO maintain
his untenable position, thus threatening
TO plunge Ireland into conflict which may
overwhelm her and cause her present fair
prospects to disappear forever. 1t Is the
duty of Irishmen now, irrespective of all
considerations of feeling either for Mr.
Parnell or those differing from him, to
adopt course that viii tend to save Ire
land from destruction"
After detailing various reasons for their
action, the Signers of the manifesto add
that whatever judgement Ireland may
pass on the manifesto, her case hangs on
the issue, and the signers will abide by
that judgement, they being the nations
servants. They set forth that Mr.. Par
nells reelection was due to gratitude for
past services, and his deposition TO the fact
that if he continued as leader the struggle
might as well have been abandoned. The
manifesto continues: 1.-The final question,
which rests with the Irish nation, is,
Lose all for Parnell, or win all without
him. Home rule with Gladstone is safe"
There are forty-seven signatures attached
to the manifesto, headed by that OF Justin
Mccarthy.

recklessly, without reflection this Is
what constitutes true economy. 1t IL

success In practical economy lies in q
careful consideration OF petty expenses,
and rational distinction between what
IS essential and what is supernuous.
The smaller item should not be unde-

Manu- facture OF slate Pencils.

One OF the most peculiar branches OF
industry in this country is the manu-
facture Of slate pencils. There is only
one slate pencil factory in the United
States. 1t employees s5 hands, who
turn out $4,000 slate pencil every day.
The method of manufacture is good
deal in advance of the primitive meth
DDS employed some years back. Not
long since the blocks Of soft slate from
which pencils are cut were sawed In
lengths and distributed among the
neighboring laborers' families TO be
whitfield down to pencil shape. Those
working at them could earn about fifty
cents per thousand. Now the blocks
are put into q machine and cut into
square lengths by revolving knives and
the lengths are afterward rounded and
polished by emery belts. One man can
cut and finish about 5000 pencils per
day.-Boston Letter.
