WEXFORD.
Recently, John Harris, an emergency
balllff on the Brooke estate. demanded
possession from a few tenants whose
house property was paid for by the
National League, so that the evicted
tenants might be comfortably housed.
Of course, this proceeding was only a
preliminary to legal proceedings for
possession at the next quarter sessions
held at Euniscorthy. 1t will be remem-
bered that some time ago possession OF
these places was also demanded. but no
further proceedings were taken at the
time. Now it is believed that the
agent, CAPTAIN Hamilton. means to
carry out his purpose of clearing the es-
tate of the tenants and in the meantime
these few people, who own the proper
ties on which he now means to come
down, are willing. at moment, TO va

In the late Admiral Auto france lost
devoted statesman and patriot. The
work Of his later years was the reform Of
the administration of the French navy.
From the time he entered naval
school az a boy, his career was marked
by "a fine courage, sincerity and good
sense.
When he was senior midshipman of the
IOnerre, and not yet twenty-five years
old, he distinguished himself by an act
of Intrepid daring.
The Tenerre was anchored In the port
OF Genoa. One night fire broke out In
the military arsenal of the place. The
commander Of the French ship al once
sent out party of sailors to assist the
garrison and the inhabitants. The fire
threatened to be terribly destructive If its
spread could not be checked.
Aube was placed In command Of the
aiding party, The struggle against the
fire was going on well, when suddenly a
panic seized the Italians, and they fed
preciptately.
A sudden breath of wind had changed
the direction of the flames. A quantity
IF debris on low structure, the roof OF
which was only six feet above the ground
burst into flame. This structure was the
powder magazine.
Quick as thought Aube perceived and
acted upon the one plan by which he
could master the situation. He sprsng
on the smoking roof, climbed to the
ridge, and seating himself calmly, went
gu directing the men from this point of
observation.
Then Midshipman Aube descended
from his perch, and tried to return
quietly to his ship; but an ovation was
not to be escaped He was surrounded
and carried to the ships boat, which
awaited him, in the midst of enthusiastic
applause and expressions of appreciation.

Domican frontier, brought back to Port
au-Prince and shot. Massage Laget lived
through his term of office with only one
revolution in 1874. Domingo escaped to
