A great OUTRAGE

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: 1 just wish
you'd print this in your paper, but you won't,
OF course; so send this on To HGTDers I'd
like them to know how gave it to you You
just read their July 9th Weekiy-the first piece
1t says " The passage of the pension bill makes
An outlay that is incalculabIe" It's a shame
this bill is q shsme! We never promised it
it amt in the contract; they got enough, and
more too. They had good time except few
who got shot, aud they ought to esteem il
favor TO die for their country; their posterity
will be proud of them; but tho rest had good
time-better than chOpping wood. They won't
save it; they'll spend it. 1t will go to the
grocer tailor and merchant. If they would
save it and lay it up, / would not begrudge it
TO them so much. IL We have another war we
must have a written contract with each soldier,
and a quItclaim for any pensions. OF course
you don't agree with me, but Harper's will.
Then | don't believe in these duties. It
just makes big pay for working-people because
we have 10 buy their wares, and can't afford to
buy in England. They get too much, and are
striking all the time. and they are as important
as the bosses. Just give US q show TO buy
English goods, aud We will make them como
down to English pay, and then they will be
glad to work 10 hours, as they ought.
Harper's is right on the ringers" They
ought not to vote, and if q Republican Con-
gress gave them the franchise, we shall choke
them OIL in every way. The idea OF negro
voting, any way! or course they will all vote
Republican. and then where are we? We
never should have set them free. / would let
up on counting them, and then shut them of
from voting; but if We didn't count them, we
would lose lot of members from their dis
trcts. So, l say, cut of the pensions, cue of
the tariff, and cut of the negroes, and reduce
expenses. am sorry we paid so much of the
National debt. We ought to have settled that
up at 90 per cent. of, because that's all the
bonds were worth-compared with gold-at
that time. wish HdTpsr's, the Ns10 York Times,
Boston Herald, etc, had the entire control OF
things.-JAs. 2. MILLS, Boston, Mass

The St. Anthony Crusaders Society
! held literary ard musical entertain
ment at their hall on Sunday evening
The hall was crowded. and quite large

The meeting was presided over by Mr.
George Turner, who explained its OBJ
ject, which was to collect certain sum
of money. to be sent to the Catholic
university to help in founding the
Father Mathew chair. The Crusaders
have promised to contribute $500, and
as many OF them are not very rich. in
the goods of this life, they have takeo
this means to obtain it. Miss M. Lyons,
Mr.. Perry and Miss Annie Norton fur
nished the music. 3. d. Kilroe gave a

cited "Eva,' and S. Shannon's recita
ton was so we'll received that he was
loudly encored. Rev. Father Harrlng-
ton made his first public speech to the
delight of all present. The following is
a synopsis OF his remarks
IT'S only a few months ago since
stood under the shadow of that monu-
mept which living hands have lifted to
the memory of Father Mathew. AS
gazed upon the mild features Of the
great lover OF humanity, I could moi
help but think that these lrishmen have
done we'll to set up the statue on high,
so that the stranger and the pilgrim
MAY see they are not torgetful or un-
grateful to the man who ]abored fol
them and liberated MANY of them from
the most CALLING chains. Two great
evils have afflicted Ireland in the past
the one was drink, the other was land
lordism. The Irish people are becoming
a race Of total abstainers, because they
are becoming more intelligent, aud the
landlords are becoming sober because
they have not money to buy drink. The
counsels of Father Mathew were for
gotten In the wall of famine aud the
CRY for bread, but these counsels are
being listened to now. The great Arch
bishop of Dublin has taken up the work,
and it is not too much to hope that the
time IS at hand when the Irish race will
be race of total abstainers, and then
The star of the west will arise in it's glory,
And the land that was darkest be brightest in
story.

Iopen up 9 new field TO the orator. Thi,
1 is 9 mistake, IS the aim Of the lecture il
mainly to instruct. The finest field iol
the orator is the pulpit.
The speaker then proceeded to crit
Icise the preacher of the day, and i'm
proved the opportunity to fire shot at
those whom he denominated 1.-The sensa-
tional pulpit orators on the other side of
the Brooklyn bridge" He denounced
sensationalism as prostitu ion Of the
sanctity of the church, and said the
greatest drawback in modern pulpit
oratory is the style OF the dsscourses de-
iyered. "The aim of the pulpit" he
continued, is not to convince the mind,
but to touch the heart" Or popular
oratory he gave an illustration by de-
.livering portions of Brutus' and Antony's
addresses over Caesars dead body. Ia
closing, he said that the grand days of
oratory are over, and that the power of
the orator waned when the printing
press arose. He paid an eloquent tri-
butte to the power of the press, and
closed by saying that the loss OF oratory
was more than made good by this great
engine OF civilization.
Throughout his lecture the speaker
gave illustrations, humorous, pathetic
and otherwise which fully demonstrated
his own ability as an orator, L is i'm
possible to do justice in a brief report to
his effort; it must have been heard to
enable the reader to form an adequate
OF it's power. The audience
was held spe!l-bound for over two hours
and left the hall with regret.
