A Serial of Thrilling Interest.

The National Magazine has secured
the great serial of the year, "Stories of
a Confederate" 1t will mark a new
and bold departure in magazine enter
prise, for although leading generals and
engineers have given accounts of their
successes aud defeats, there are few
periodicals which have eve published
the "reminiscences Of q Southern gentle
men,, rejecting justly his motives, ideas,
hopes and experiences, as well rs giving
a vivid and just account OF some OF the
most important events in American his
tory. That this story can now be told
frankly and fairly, without awakening
dangerous and bitter emotions North or
South. is due to the healing hand of
time; the inflexible logic of common
interests and established conditions ;
and more thantn5l, to the renaissance OF
American military and naval nov
and the glorious victories in which
N0rthron and Sonthron have shared
the same dangers and lardsliips, and
have been rivals only in the common
desire of carrying the banner of edtle
stars from victory 10 victory
The initial number of this Interesting
serial will appear in the November
issue of "The National Magazine" and
will deal with the ending OF tls,t hollow
truce between the representatives of
the new C~onfederacy aud the Govern
ment at Washington, which had for
months prevented Anderson from OPP
the erection of h~ostiles batteries
and deferred ~Beauregard from "a com
plete isolation Of the Federal garrison,
and finally resulted in the firing upon
Fort Sumter. The series has an enter
tanning and historical value not equal

IRISH POLITICAL LEADER.
Redmond Spoke in New York and
Hnd n ROusing Retention.

New York, Jan. 9.-John Il. Redmond,
the Irish political leader received a
rousing popular welcome in the Broad
way theater tonight. Every seat was
occupied and as Mr. Redmond stepped
upon the platform there rose cheer
from every throat.
Among those on the platform and in
the boxes were Recorder John w. Golf,
Former Congressman w. Bourke Cock
ran, William Aston Chanler, Congress-
man William Sulzer and ODonovan
Rosa.
Mr.. Redmond spoke on the rebellion of
1913. He described the rising, it's fail
ure and eulogized it's leaders. The audi
ence cheered the mention of Void Tone
and Robert Emmett and Missed the name
of Castlereagh. When Mr.. Redmond told
of the cruelty of the British soldiers
in Ireland many of the women in the
audience wept. In conclusion Mr.. Red
mond said he hoped that what he said
on the subject of 1893 would help to
aid in the vindication of the men who
died for Ireland. The heritage of the
martyrs, he said, is priceless one,
namely, that of lreland's right to ma
tionhood and distinct, separate national
liberty.
"The triumph of their cause may not
come in our day." he said "but we be-
lieye in it just as firmly as we do in the
existence of our God. When Irelands
liberty shall be attained grateful peo-
pie will kneel by their graves and pay
the martyrs grateful tribute"
