Of st. Patrick, have submitted the follow

TO the Friendly Sons Of st. Patrick
Mr.. PRESIDENT: Your committee ap-
pointed at the last meeting to suggest
what action ought to be taken by this
organization in response to the appeal of
the Irish Parliamentary party for the,
contribution OF funds by the friends OF
Ireland abroad to aid our brethren at
home, beg leave to submit the following
report:
4 In view of the fact that there is now on
deposit an the city of Paris with Munroe,
& Co., bankers, a large sum OF money,
commonly known as the Paris fund Of
the irish Parliamentary party, placed
there in the names Of Biggar, Parnell
and Mccarthy as trustees, which fund.-,
lowing to the unfortunate factional diff
lfereuoes to which deplorable events have
lately given rise have been rendered un-
available, each faction contending for the
control Of the same, we regretfully recon-
mend that oil further contributions be
! suspended until q harmonious agreement
4 shall have been reached between our
wrangling brothers IN Ireland by which
this fund can be available for the use for
which it was contributed.
j And in this connection We would add
that we think we voice the sentiment Of
|all friends Of Ireland upon this side of
the water, when we ray that we see no
reasonable excuse for q proloDgation Of
the differences between those whom our
grand cause should cement into one
body; and while at the heat Of the mo.
mont human pride and human weakness
might stand as extenuating cirouns-
stances = Tor the deplorable division Of our
Jealous brothers, now that sober second
Thought has had time to assert itself We
think that the foes Of passionatf, dissen-
sion should BE- dispelled by the, sunshine i e
LEI, brot herly harmony. Vi, 81. q
