Parting Interview With E1n1net.

The evening before his death, while
the workmen we're busy with the scat
fold, a young lady was ushered into his
dungeon. It was the girl whom he so
fondly loved, and who had now come to
bid him her eternal farewell. He was
leaning, in melancholy mood, against
the window frame Of his prison, and the
heavy clanking of his irons smote dismal
ly on her heart. The interview was bit
terly affecting, and melted even the cal
lous soul of the jailer As for Emmett,
he wept and spoke little; but, as he
pressed his beloved in silence to his
bosom, his countenance betrayed his
emotions. In low voice, half-choked
by anguish, he besought her not to for
get him; he reminded her of their former
happiness, of the long past days OF their
childhood, and concluded by requesting
her sometimes to visit the scenes where
their infancy was spent, and, though the
world might repeat his name with scorn,
to cling to his memory with affection
At this very instant, the evening bell
pealed from the neighboring church.
Emmett started at the sound, and as he
felt that this was the last time he should
ever hear it's dismal echoes, he folded his
beloved still closer to his heart, and bent
over her sinking form with eyes stream
ing with affection. The turnkey entered
at the moment; ashamed Of weakness,
he dashed the rising drop from his eye,
and q frown again lowered on his ooun-
tenance. The man, meanwhile, ap-

Convention Chatter.

Twas prize worth working for, and
the people OF the Northwest seldom
weary of talking aboutit. Every prepar-
alton which it is thought will advance
it's cause in any way is promptly met.
Energetic push and cooperation have
brought their reward. Tie people will
flock to Minneapolis and be on hand
early. This is fully anticipated by the
Minneapolis & St. Louis Railway, which
is party of the rate announced, and

populace. For full particulars, call on

The robin is called Goods bird, be-
cause it plucked thorn from the cruel
crown pressed upon the head of our Saw
Jour. and in doing 50 wounded it's own
breast. 1t forsakes a "cursed" graveyard.
The wren is chased every St. Stephens
day on account of it betraying the Saw
Jour by chattering in a clump of furze
where He was hiding. 1t is called the
"king of all Birds" because it concealed
itself beneath the wing of the eagle when
that lordly bird claimed supremacy by
soaring highest. Here am" said the
wren, mounting above the eagles head
when the latter could go no higher.
The blackbirl ana the thrush are
wandering souls" whose sins must be
expiated on earth, hence they are
forced to endure the rigors of winter.
Rocks. jackdaws. bats, hawks and owls
are animated by lost souls. The wagtail
is called the "devil's bird,'' for no other
reason, suppose, than that it cleverly
evades the missiles thrown at it. A dead
wagtail is a rara avis.
The stone chat is continually chatting
with the evil one, so it is held in bad re-
pute, and as the raven commonly impe =
sonates his sable majesty, it is ranked in
the same category Of evil birds. Som q
times. however, it's appearance forebod es
death. With the ancient Greeks tbs
maybe was supposed to possess the souls
of qossiping women, and we all know
how unlucky 1t is to meet an odd num-
Der in Ireland.
One comes for sorrow, two for mirth,
Three for berrin', and four for a birth.
Crows, like crickets, come for good or
evil luck, but the "curse of the crows" is
a malediction to be avoided. 1t good
luck abides in the homestead where they
build their rookery they should not be
molested. Sparrows, stares and plovers
are on on friendly terms with the fairie s.
The lark and swallow are birds of good
omen. but the latter should not rest on
the hOusetOp.
The sedge warblers possess the souls
of unbaptized babes, and sing their sor-
row at the midnight hour; while the lin
net, yellowhammer and finch sing their
plaintive and tender songs to remind us
they are souls of departed friends not
yet relieved from purgatorial pains.
The bittern is their herald at night.

THE ANCIENT RACE.

What shall become OF the ancient race
The noble Celtic island race?
Like cloud on cloud er the azure sky,
When winter storms are loud and high.
Their dark ships shadow the ocean g face
VIII It shall become of the Celtic race?
What shall befall the ancient face
The poor. uufriended, faithful race?
Where ploughman's song made the hamlet
ring,
The village vulture flaps his wing;
The village homes, oh, who can trace
God of our prosecuted race?
What shall befall the ancient race?
Is treason stigma on their face?
Be they towards or traitors? Go
Ask the shade of England's foe;
See the gems her crown that grace;
They tell tale of the ancient race.
They tell tale OF the ancient race
OF matchless eds in dangers face!
They speak OF Britain's 81 ry fed
On blood of Celt right bravely shed;
OF India's spoil anu Frank disgrace
They tell tale Of the ancient race,
Then why cast out the ancient race?
Grim want dwelt with the ancient race,
And hell-born laws, with psison jaws,
And greedy lords with tiger maws
Have,swal ow 'd-swallow still space
The limos and the blood of the ancient race.
Will 40 one shield the ancient race?
They fly their Fathers burial place.;
The proud lords with the heavy purse
Their fathers shame their peoples curse
Demons in heart, mobiles in face
They dig a grave for the ancient race!
They dig grave for the ancient race
And grudge that grave to the ancient race
On highway side full oft were seen
The wild dogs and the vultures keen
Tug for the limbs and gnaw the face
OF some starved child of the ancient race!
What shall befall the ancient race?
Shall all forsake their dear birth place,
Without one struggle strong to keep
The old soil where heir fathers sleep?
The dearest land ON earth's wide space
Why leave it 80. O ancient race?
What shall beiall the ancient race?
Light up one hope for the ancient race?
o Priest of God-soggarth aroon
Lead but the way-we'll go full soon;
Is there danger we will not face
To keep old homes for the Irish race?
They will not go, the ancient race!
They must not ;, the ancient race!
Come, gallant Celts, and take your stand
The League-the League-will save the land
The Land of faith, the land Of grace,
The laud of Erin's ancient race!
They will not go, the ancient race! .
They shall not 90 the ancient race!
The cry swells loud from shore to shore,
From EN- raid vale to mountain boar
From altar high to market-place-
They shall not go the ancient race!

LEITRIM.

A centenarian has just died, near
Drumkeeran, in the person OF Patrick
Muldoon, who lived in small hut about
a mile from the village. Deceased was
born in Marck, 1892, and would, had he
lived, been 100 years old this month. Up
to the date of his death he had the per
feet use of all his faculties, and many
and interesting were the tales of which
he was the proud narrator. Not many
months ago, in an interview with him, he
used to give his experience of the days
when there was neither car, cart nor
roadway to be seen where now there are
railways and carriages galore; and he
frequently saw persons conveying goods
several miles on their backs. He used
also recount his remembrance Of the
landing of the French at Killala, under
Gen. Humbert, their inland Journey, in
GLIDING their march through Drumkeer-
an, and their ultimate defeat, wrought
by treachery, at Ballinamuck. During
this period, he used to say, he saw occa-
sionally the crockery-ware, in the country
houses, shaking in their places, from the
reverberations of the cannon. He was
generally successful at prognosticating
weather changes, was lover OF pipe and
tobacco for over 30 years, and used to at
tend divine service as regularly every
Sunday as any young man Of the neigh
borhood His long life he always at
tributed to his freedom from any cough
