IRELAND A NATION.

Mr.. Mccarthy, in proposing the toast,
"Ireland, a nation" congratulated his
hearers upon the fact that this was the
largest celebration of the kind ever held in
London. Mr.. Mccarthy said: "The people
had many difficulties to contend with, but
they had also new and great advantage on
their side. At no time in their his
tory they enjoyed more thoroughly
the sympathy and confidence of
great English liberal democratic party.
Every day which passes counted for their
side and the nations cause, against the de-
sires of any small parties or man. They
stood for ireland, a nation" tCbeers.]
Among the congratuIatory kilograms was
one from Michael Davitt, who was speak
ing at Blackburn. He said he bad re-
nounced any demand for separation directly
he saw a chance Of Ireland's gaining by
constitutional means what she had so long
desired. He was confident that Mr.. Parnell
would meet with more thorough defeat in
Sligo than he had met in Kilkenny, and
that at the general election he would have
no following whatever.

LONDON, March 17.-Justin Mccarthy
presided at banquet this evening at the
Cannon Street hotel, Cardinal Manning
wrote regretting his inability to be present
on account of the severity of the weather.
In his letter, the cardinal said: 1.-TWO motives
prompted me to be with you. First. my old
and tried sympathy for Ireland; second, my
ioy at the sudden and powerful rise of an
organization which, more than any party
or league hitherto existing, represents the
religious. social aud national life of Ire

dorse the action of Mr. Mccarthy.

HIS MOTHER PAINTED 1T.

A few years ago there was young
fellow at Yale who was great wag
One day an enormous painting of a deer
appeared on the wall of his room. 1t
was most atrocious combination of oils
and imagination, and it Was not unra u :
raj, therefore, that every fellow who
came into his rooms for weeks thereafter
should stand transfxed for an instant,
then whistle and say: Hullo, b.
where did you get that cow"
To Which B-would always give
the same answer with hurt look: "My
mother didn't paint 1t for for a COW"
then his voice would break and he would
say quietly, "She's dead now; wish yc u
wouldn't" And then, Of course, there
would be collegian who would go hur
riedly out and invite some other colleg-
ian to kick him all over the campus.
SO matters went on for some weeks.
Several fellows, being warned in advance
on going into the room, would be stuck
with a sudden and wonderful admiration
for the work of art and were loud in
their praise of it. Which praise was
always received, as the blame had been
quietly and mournfully.
Finally one day self-shamed sophie
more went to junior who lived in the
same town with B ard confessed to
him the awful blunder he had made in
asking B. where he got the COW

SNOW ON THE MOON,

Recent remarkable discoveries have
been made at the Lick Observatory, Cali
fornia, according to reports received from
Mt. Hamilton.
Professor Holden, the director of the
observatory, has secured through the big
telescope better photographs of the moon
than have been taken anywhere else, and
the work of photographing goes on every
hour when the satellite is visible. By
studying these photographs with mag
nifying glass and comparing them, any
changes taking place on the surface OF
the moon may be discovered.
The astronomers on Mount Hamilton
have discovered some things that no
body else ever saw, but they have not
determined whether these are new fea
lures or things that are too small to have
been seen through less powerful tele
scope. For example, Oh the mountain,
OF the moon the photograph shows a
luminous white spot that looks like snow
If that is snow, and it was not there be.
fore, the presence of an atmosphere il
indicated.
1t has been believed that the moon ha.
no atmosphere, and therefore is uninhab
table, but if 1t should be demonstrated
that snow falls upon the surface of the
satellite, the accepted theory would be
upset and astronomers would bagiu to
study the moon with new and greater
interest.
Objects upon the moon are detached
by their shadows, and IA projection OF
eminence fifty feet high casts shadow
large enough to be seen through the
Lick telescope. II Professor Holding, in
studying his series OF photographs,
should discover some day new shadow
where none had been cast before when
the moon was in the same position and
under the same light, he would know
that something had been erected upon
upheaVed by some internal movement or
a building put by living creatures. The
shape Of the shadows might tell the
nature Of the projection.
If the moon were inhabited II is very
likely the works of man would have been
seen there before now.
The growing and harvesting OF crops
would produce changes of appearance
easily distinguishable by the aid Of such
glass as the Lick telescope.
The moou appears to De dead, DESC

and, like Arizona, rather short of water

they had there from early in July until
the last of October and all the trees were
raised from stones.
There were not more than four or five
small peaches on the place and these
they would use for picking or drying,

to cut down anything that bore fruit but
would have it worked around, MANFRED,

every peach tree on the place was ex-

the most delicious peaches | ever saw
was what they called the Georgia"
peach. 1t was clingstone and had
deep red meat, kind OF streaked aud

underlying it. 1t was what you would

You don't know how quickly you can

Drop It.

We notice with regret that certain kindly
but thoughtless journals are proposing tho
Hon. WILLIAM MAXWELL EvARTs as the
Republican candidate for Governor. In any
other year no would bc an admirable person
for tho Republicans to put up and the
Democrats would put him down with regrct,
but we hope that tho admirers who have
caused his nomination will withdrawal.
Mr.. EvARTs has but lately completed a
service OF six years rs Senator In Congress,
and for too much OF that time he has boon
stranger TO this town and TO that famous
and well-cultivated farm at Windsor where
his cows are fed with greenbacks. To re-
pose upon that farm this summer and to
forget In the charm of rural lifo and tho
society OF his intimates tho melancholy
years when, in his own follcitous
phrase, "tho water flowed like cham.
ragne" and Fraud sat IN tho White
House. must DO dear and desirable TO him.
1ta has been abroad many times, md has
satiated his eyes and his mind with tho
scenery. the monuments, and tho eminent
mon and women across tho pond. Besides,
IL would be most unpleasant for him to have
to meet the American Consuls whose lives
no made unhappy when Secretary OF
State by forcing them to tho production OF
literature. Mr.. EvARTs wants to stay at
homo and enjoy himself. and enjoy the re-
spect and tho society Of his fellow citizens.
Now, II the talk about nominating him TO.
Governor isn't dropped, he will have to 20
the way Of BLISS and DEpEw and take him
self out OF the country. A writ of nc Great
should issue against him; and tho only way
to cause that writ to be granted In his case
Is to say no more OF him Us candidate for
Governor. He cannot be spared.

must DO possessed OF phenomenal patience
Is not founded In fact. Some Of the most
nervous and impatient men alive are
afflicted with that harmless mania which
might properly be called plscatorial. There
are also philosophers among the fisher-
men; but just to what school they
belong 1t might be difficult to say.
II am past seventy" said robust
old angler to an inquirng young man,
land can enjoy days fishing now fully
ns much as enjoyed II when was sixteen"
This may explain some OF the mystery,
but not the whole. Certainly tho man who
could go back to tho sport of his boyhood
and enjoy 1t as Of old by means OF
rod and reel would DO damphool
not to go. But this would argue
that it Is necessary to catch the
fishing fever soon after tho whooplng
cough; that, In other words, 1t is q thing
to DO acquired In boyhood. and which.
onco caught, remains forever incurable.
After all, this theory docs not cover tho
thing completely. because a considerable
number OF abe-bodied men acquire the pas-
sion for angling late enough In life.
Where, then, must we look for the NIL
crobo Of angling?

any act toward WEBSTER which justified or
excused the latter In putting him to death.
A remarkable feature OF the case Is the
length OF time during which WEBSTER sue
cessfully concealed himself from the police.
Tho homicide was committed In the heart
Of tho city. under circumstances which be-
came almost instantly known to the au-
thorities. and yet the offender was able to
conceal himself for upward OF five days, and
the police appear to have been wholly
ignorant rs to his whereabouts until he
chose to appear In public.
II the identity OF the persons who wllfully
aided WEBSTER In avoiding arrest can be
ascertained, some measures ought to be
taken to punish them as accessories. Even
his counsel would have no right to aid or
abet him In his efforts to avoid arrest.
