.rns Great American Statesman

The just, dignitied and temperate tone
OF the despatch in which Secretary
Blaine states the position of the United
States in dealing with the New Orleans
massacre will command the conf
dence and insure the respect OF
the civilized werld. No American
will read this despatch without mia
gled gratitude aud admiration for the
spirit in which 1t is expressed, the
absense of asperity, the willing.
ness to extend reparation, and the
readiness to recognize the just rights of
Italy, even at moment when the hasty
action of the Italian Government has
elouded the relations between the two
Governments aud Swallowed them with
wanton ard needless aspersion of the
good faith of the United States and the
general administration of justice within
its limits.
Our country in this event is fortunate
In position. power and resources which
render attack from Italy ridiculous and
aggression unnecessary, ard is fortunate
also in having its just claims placed
before the world in the brilliant and
foreihle manner displayed by Secretary
Blaine In his official despatch. The
Philadelphia Press says in reference Il
this magnificent reply of Mr.. Blaine
s'Thc Judgment Of mankind will ap
prove. and the conscience and con
scious dignity Of the UEited
States viii support the position
taken by Secretary Blaine. The United
States will punish those, and only those,
who are convicted by law. In due sea
son il win discharge every treaty obligs,

Causes the Death OF lsrs. Welsh, Of Rem
woud, and Probably FntulIy Injuries Her
Husband.
About half past nine o'clock Saturday
night, Mrs. Patrick Welsh was fatally
burned by the explosion Of lamp. She
died late in the night. When the lamp
exploded the flame Immediately com
inundated to Mrs. Welsh's clothing.
She attempted to extinguish the flames
herself, but falling in this, ran down to
the saloon on the ground floor. Her
husband tried to heat out the fire with
his hands and tear the burning clothing
off, a comfort was brought but was also
consumed, and only by the aid OF an
other comfort were the flames put ont.
The carpet and curtains OF the room
were all atlams, and the two children
were removed from the apartment in
time. The fire was soon brought under
control, fortunately so, for the houses
in the naighhoriood are of very in
ilammable material. The people next
door got up and dressed and prepared
10 flee, in case the fire spread.
Though DIR. Walton was Immediately
summoned, no efforts were OF avail,
and towards morning the unfortunate
woman died. Mr.. Welst's injuries
were at first not consid cred yeryserious,
but from later informatio he also may
be fatally burned.

NEARBY A BAD FIRE.
Boys Start n Bln1p In Thirteenth stro
Stable, and Other Boys Put 1t Out.

Boys sinrt n Bln4p in n Thirteenth street
Stable, and Other boys Put 1t Out.
Yesterday afternoon two small boys
were playing near Dr. Hoge's stable, at
the head OF Thirteenth street, when they
gathered lot ofloose straw lying about,
and piling it against the brick wall Of
the stable, set fire 10 it. The flames
spread to the hay in the stable and the
boys seeing the results OF their sport
tried to blow the blaze out by tanning
it with newspaper. OF course, this
had the contrary effect from that desir-
cd, and in few minutes the fire was
blazing ominously, when the kids ran
away crying, and hid in a neighboring
coal shed.
Tho boys in st. Johns Home, adjoin-
ing, saw the flames, and they and sever
al other boys Of from six to ten years
carried water and put out the fire.
There was nobody else present till they
had It under control, when two gentle
men arrived. But for the prompt ac-
ton Of the little fellows there would
have been q serious fire.
