Walsh, warning them against the AAiIolal Lr,iI,te iA2th. ods ot Harrington ArI P,,rnclt liar rington has replied to Archbishop Walsh. He says the archbishop mis- judged the circular issued in behalf of the League.
 The circular. ht states, is the same as that issued annually, and he, Harring ton, before sending it out informed Messrs Dillon and O Brien that, in con. sequence of the collapse of the American tour, he had determined to ask the League branches to help the evicted ten ants.
 In conclusion Mir. Harrington earnest ly advises Archbishop Walsh not to com init the priests too hastily to a policy that would involve the division of the Irish party into two hostile camps in every parish.

AN EXPENSIVE MISTAKE.

One Error of Punctuation Cost the Gov
 ernment $3,OOO,OOO.
 There is scarcely ever a session of Congress in which bills are not found to contain mistakes in Orthography and punctuation. The only wonder is that many more do not occur when it is re- membercd that all such work near ad- tournament is performed under eXtraor- dinary circumstances. All is haste. noise and confusion. Rest and sleep is unknown oftentimes for two NI' three days and nights in succession. The clerks become nervous, wcariel and sometimes wholly exhausted by the in tense strain ami prolonged physical la bor.
 Probably the smallest, and apparent ly most insigniticent.o of all such blunders was the most expensive one of the kind ever made. It occurred in tariff bill more than twenty years ago. There was section enumerating what articles should be admitted free of duty, Among the many articles specified were ''all foreign fruit-plants," etc., meaning plants imported for transplanting. prop agation or experiment. The enroll ing clerk in copying the bill accidentally changed the hyphen in the compound word ''fruit-plants' to a comma, making it read ''all foreign fruit, plants.' etc The consequence was that for year until Congress could remedy the blunder all the oranges. lemons. bananas, grapes and other foreign fruits were ad- mitted free of duty. This little mistake, which the most careful man might easily have made. cost the Government
