Is 1'rninnism Contributing to the
Freedom of the Irish People f
Thr late Fenian fmeutc in Ireland seems to
Lave entirely subsided, nnd nothing now re
mains but the trials for "high treason,"
which the telegraph informs us will commence
on the Cth of April in Dublin.
It might be well for those who havo the
good of tho Irish peoplo really at heart, to
ask themselves what benefioial, practical re
sults have so far been achieved by this en
tire Fenian movement ? A great deal of
money has been raised from a class of
peoplo who could illy afford to spare it; a
great many conventions have been held; a
great number of rousing speeches have been
made; Canada has been invaded; and several
feeble and spasmodic insurrectionary move
ments have been made in Ireland. But what,
let us seriously ask, has it all amounted to 1
Is Ireland free 1 Is she any nearer being
free or independent than she was before these
movements were commenced ? Several inno
cent persons have lost their lives, several
more are languishing in prison, and a fresh
batch of candidates for the penitentiary are
now awaiting trials for high treason, connected
with the late uprising in Ireland. And
these are about the only practical results which
this Fenian business has yet produced.
Now it is a principle of ethics, that an
attemptod revolution, besides being for a jus
tifiable cause, must have a reasonable chance
of success, or it becomes immoral. The man
who starts out alone and single-handed to
overthrow the existing order of things, and
Shoots down tho first policeman or other civil
officer that he meets, cannot plead the right of
revolution. The law of ethics will stigmatize
liiin as a murderer. As revolutions ought not
to be attempted except for just cause that is,
in the interest of public freedom so they
ought not to be attempted unless there is a
reasonable prospect of success. If entered upon
lightly, without due preparation, or when
there is no good ground of expecting popular
Support, they are justly chargeable with the
loss of life they may occasion, the woes they
may bring upon innocent parties, and the
general distress they may cause. Civil order
is a good in and of itself, and rightfully de
mands that it shall not be wantonly and reck
lessly disturbed.
Suppose we apply these principles to the
case in hand, lias there at any time been
any good ground for believing that the exist
ing Government in Ireland could be forcibly
overturned ? Have the Fenian leaders them
selves believed it 1 Look at Stephens' pre
diction that he would raise the Hag of revolu
tion there before the 1st of January, 1867,
when, as he afterwards confessed, he knew it
would be impossible to do so. Look at the
Canadian invasion of last summer. Did any
man in his senses suppose that it could suc
ceed? Did not the result prove it to have
been a foolish and ill-starred expedition from
the start f Look, too, at the late insurrec
tionary movements in Ireland itself, and
where do we find any such popular support,
any such wisdom of preparation, or any such
capacity of leadership, as promised the slight
st hope of success 1
It would be a matter of exceeding doubt
whether Ireland could obtain her independ
ence even if her people were united, and were
thoroughly organized in an insurrectionary
luovement. We have seen something of re
bellion in thi3 country; and we have seen that
the utmost union on the part of great masses
of people, aided by thorough organization,
capable leadership, and vast resources, was
not sufficient to secure the independence of
the revolutionists. But the Irish people are
far from being united in the support of Fe
nianism. The Catholic clergy, who exert a
commanding and almost irresistible influence
over a very large portion of them, are arrayed
in deadly hostility to this movement. We
Lave before us an abstract of a sermon de
livered by the Rev. Dr. Moriarty, Roman
Catholic Bishop of Kerry, on the Sunday im
mediately following the outbreak in that
county. In it he unsparingly denounces the
attempted insurrection as the height of folly
and crime. It is well known, too, that in the
north of Ireland the people generally do not
sympathize with any attempt to overthrow the
existing Government.
Is it not apparent, then, that this Fenian
movement cannot succeed f If so, why should
more money and more lives be wasted in it ?
We thik it is time that sensible people, who
Lave the Lighest good of Ireland aud her
people at heart, should discountenance further
insurrectionary attempts in her behalf. The
enfranchisement of the Irish people must come
simultaneously with that of British subjects
generally. John Bright is a better and truer
eader for them than the Stuphenses and Rob
crtses and John Mitchols. Irish independence
is a dream which may never be realized, but
the freedom of the Irish people must come in
process of time with the general enfranchise
ment oi I ne diiusu nation.
The Troubles in Schuylkill County.
Thb difficulties in Schuylkill county would
seem to be of & character demanding tho
prompt application of severe measures.
lawless, reckless set of vagabonds have
Organized themselves for the purposes of pluu
der and outrage. They are suffering no hard
ships, they have no wrongs to complain of,
but are simply a band of cutthroats, disturb- j
ing public order and endangering the lives
and property of peaceable citizens. They are
the same class of scoundrels who resisted the
draft, and committed various other outrages
during the war.
If additional legislation is necessary to pre
serve public order in that section, the Legisla
ture should at once enact it. If it is merely
the execution of our present laws that is at
fault, tho Governor should immediately tako
the matter in hand, and repress tho outrages
there with an iron hand. The community has
been disturbed long enough by these "Molly
Maguire" villains, and it will bo disgraceful to
the State if they are allowed to go unchecked
any longer.
Shall Jvm be Insured?
It would seem from the action of tho General
Agent of the Insurance Companies of New
York that as the Spanish amusement of having
an auto da fit with a Jew or a Protestant has
gone out of date, that the present age designs
to have a conflagration of Jewish properties,
if it cannot havo of Jewish persons. A Mr. A.
Stoddart, General Agent for some companies
unknown, has issued a circular directing his
sub-agents to refuse to insure any property
belonging to Hebrews, except such as can
prove a "live years' residenco, and a fair
Christian character." It seems that notwith
standing this injunction an officer accepted of
a respectable Israelite his premium, and issued
a policy. As soon as the namo in tho policy
was seen by Mr. Stoddart, ho scented a Jew
afar off, and ordered that the money bo re
turned and the policy cancelled. This rule,
we are told, is to be enforced in every parti
cular, and all Jews to be excluded from tho
benefit of an insurance, unless he would
consent to abjure his faith, when he can be
immediately received into the fold of reliable
citizens.
We think, without exception, that tho rule
is the most preposterously ridiculous of any
thing we havo seen the bigots of tho day agree
upon. It may be very well for Mr. Stoddart
to publish a card, in which he states that the
outside world knows nothing about the busi
ness of insurance, and insinuates that a course
of training is necessary to become an insurer,
similar in secrecy to that essential to admis
sion to the Druids a thousand years ago. It
is not a satisfactory explanation to say that
"the Jews, as a class, have blistered and swin
dled the Insurance Companies most unmerci
fully, and doubtless will continue to do so, so
long as unrestricted insurance is granted
them."
It may be true that there are rogues in every
sect, and it is probable that the Jews have a
full, and possibly more than a fair proportion
of scoundrels in their rauks. But that is not
the question. Numerically considered, there
are certatainly more rogues among the Chris
tians than there are among the Jews; and
how do insurance agents protect themselves
against the former ? Why, by trying each
applicant on his individual merits not in
quiring whether he is a Jew or a Gentile, or
a Greek or a Saracen, but seeing if he is a re
liable man; if he has a good name, and his
property is of a kind to be insured. If a Jew
peddler is proved unreliable, and agents are
warned against him, should not a Christian
peddler be equally carefully examined ? If it is
true, as Mr. Stoddart says, that "it is absurd
to suppose insurance companies proscribe any
one for opinion's sake ; religious considera
tions do not enter into its practical business
operations; every shade of religious belief and
non-belief, from frigid skeptic to red-hot en
thusiast, from Pagan to Jew, and from Jew to
Gentile, being represented in the profession,"
then, why is it that a peddling Jew cannot
be trusted and a peddling Gentile can ? It is
clear that the whole force of this new rule
rests on the idea that a man being a Jew is
prima facie evidence that he is a rogue. Such
an assumption savors too strongly of the days
of the Inquisition, and of that perverse old
gentleman, King John. There are, however,
reliable gentlemen among the Jews as well as
among the Christians; and while it might have
been proper for the General Agent to warn his
sub-officer against any class of tradesmen,
aud might have mentioned that the greater
part of a certain class were Jews, to in
clude a whole class is a gross injustice, and
the whole idea utterly disconsonant with the
spirit oithe age. We hope that 'this ridiculous
and obnoxious rule will be speedily revoked,
and that if the charity and common sense of
the Companies do not induce them to amend
their rule, that the eirect on their pockets will
bring about a speedy reformation of tho evil.
At tho present day, the proscribing of any
race or sect because of difference in opinion or
color, is opposed to the principles of our
national uconomy.
The Destitution ut the South Need of
l'rompt Hclief.
We give extracts herewith from published let
ters from South Carolina, which indicate a
state of destitution there which calls for
prompt measures of relief. The following is
from a letter dated Columbia, S. C, March 1,
and written at tho request of Rev. William
Martin, a Methodist minister at Columbia, to
Dr. J. Leighton Wilson, of Maysville, by
w hom it was furnished for publication:
"My lather has for months past been in oor
n spoiHlence with responsible men In all parts
ol the Slate, and has learned the following putu
lul liiot:
"That at least one hundredand fifty thousand
buBlielN ot corn must be brought Into the Btata
(South Carolina) for gratuitous distribution, to
prevent actual famine; that there are now in
many places numbers of riersong who are suf
fering lor bread, who must perish unless help
comes speedily; and that the sullerlng is by no
means confined to that class of peoplo who will
beg, but that the greatest suflerlug is among
those who are Buffering from the reverse of for
tune brought about by the war, to whom beg
ging would be worse thau deatu.
"Within sound or Columbia I know of two
deaths Irom actual want, aud from the Intelli
gence luy father baa received, we have every
reason to fear that these are not isolated oases,
"X have seen, sir, ou many of tu bitterest
(ley of our severe wlntrr, Just passed, feeble .
women, wnn with starvation, walk ten. fifteen,
and twenty miles, scantily covered with r-s
wun ineir Unix s in their arms, to receive a hair
bushel of corn, which i hev are thankful to he
able to carry home to their starving children.
"Allow me to give yon an extract from a note
Just pent to my lather from one of ttie Commis
sioners of the Poor:
"Among our tnoat needy are Mr. Yonnir,
aped 85; Mrs. Cornelius, a soldier's widow,
linked, starvlni-, with seven children, three
Miotic, and also her mother, aged 80; Mrs. VV.
Marsh, soldier's widow, live children; Mr
I ook, widow, having care of hor son's children,
be being killed In the arniv.'
"And so the sorrowful list goes on."
The following is from Dr. Wilson himself to
George M. CHI, Esq., of Baltimore, and is
dated Maysville, S. C, March 22:
"In Abbeville, and several of the adjoining
districts, I It am, on good nuthoi ity, the illsiree
In very erent, nnd IiccoiiiIiik every day more so.
Jn I oluiiihia, hh I lenrned irotn Dr. Alitor, one
gentleman wnn serving out corn meiil by the
peck to more than four hundred families. From
Judue Alrieh, with whom 1 travelled some dm
tniice yesterday, ami who has been travelling
extensively in the Htnte, I learned that the
distress was iullo hh licncrnlin the southwest
pert of the State hh anywhere else, and Indeed
he expressed serious apprehension that we were
approaching n peneral famine, sucli as has
never been Known In this country.
"I (io not suppose that matters are any better
In the State of (leorgla. l'erhaps the general
destitution Is greater in these two States than
in any ot her.
"The wants of the country enn bo better met
bv the shipment of corn and meat than In any
other way. These might be sent to depots along
the rnilroads, and be planed under the care of
judicious committees, who could either sell
them at moderate prices or distribute them
tnituitously among the poor, as might soem
necessary. It will require, as I learned from a
ii n it, her of liidleioiisand observant men, several
honored thousand bushels of corn to relieve tho
oistnss of this .state alone; but whatever may
be given will gojust so lar to relieve existing
distress.
'In ronelncllne this hnstily written letter. I
would slniniy add that whatever may bo done
should be done as speedily as possible."
We have no reason to doubt that these let
ters give a faithful picture of the condition of
things in the districts from which they come.
Wo commend them to the attention of our
readers, and trust they may serve to quicken
the charitable efforts of all who have hearts to
feel for tho destitute and distressed.
Thk Minister to Austeia.. The nomination
by the President of Frank P. Ulair, Jr., for
the post of Minister to Austria, will, we hope,
be followed by his prompt rejection by the
Senate. We can recall no man more obnox
ious to the Republican party than General
Blair. Securing confidence by his stern advo
cacy of ultra Free-soil views, he no sooner
saw an opportunity to betray the party wliwli
had given him office, than ho went over to fftu
bitterest State-Rights clique of Missouri.
With his brother Montgomery, he had much
to do with the treachery of President Johnson.
The fact that he has any of the blood of the
Blair family in his veins, is sufficient to cause
the Senate to pause lieiore it confirms. Tho
fact that he is an unprincipled renegade from
the Republican party should insure his in
stantaneous rejection. At present this candi
date for confirmation at the hands of the Re
publican party is stumping Connecticut for
the principles of Seymour and Toucey. His
selection is an insult to the whole radical
party of the country.
Siikisipan's Okhkk. General Sheridan's
order on assuming command of his district
under the Reconstruction act will be found in
our issue to-day. It is a plain, straightfor
ward document, such as we might have ex
pected from gallant "little Phil." He inti
mates that he shall not make any general
removal of officers under the Provisional Gov
ernment, which perhaps is an intimation to
creatures of the Monroe stripe that they hold
their positions by a frail tenure.
The Sokday Car Question. We hear it
stated that it is probable a motion will be
made to-day or to-morrow in the Pennsyl
vania Senate, to reconsiderthe vote by which
the bill submitting the question to a vote of the
people was defeated. Unless, under the rules
of that body, the motion is made before the
Senate adjourns, to-morrow (Wednesday)
evening, this important measure will lie over
for another year.

(ieneral Sewall says to tbe Hun. William Orsv,

says: "In nil this section there areiiMiidreds of poor

who are better oil' are not able to afford rebel."
HOUTH CAROLINA. (inventor Worth savs:
'There Is great destitution all over theHtale. Five
hundred thousand bushels ol corn will he necessary
to supply the pressing wants of the Indigent white
and colored people ol (south Carolina." In rsatnler
Idstrlct, Colonel Nettles represents the need of provi
sions to be very great. In Colloion. Mr. K. F.Gieno
savs: "'1 be prospect Is truly deploranle." In Iticu
laiid, Mr. I.elund says: "I know positively of a great
many families w ho have not more than enough bread
to lust them tbiee or lour weeks." In Camden, Dr.
J. K. Wltbeispoon, after describing the deplorable
condition ol very many in his neighborhood, says:
"Many ol these poor unfortunate people will till the
pauper's grave before the public charities can visit
them." From Abbeville and Lancaster similar
accounts are before us.
NORTH CAROLINA. Governor Worth speaks of
their great want.
A LA HA MA. Governor I'atton. by telesranb of 2W
Inst., says: "Send us com for bread or money to
purchase it. If possible, send corn or other supplies."
It must lie useless to multiply the evidences of Hie
leaihil want winch prevails ihroimh many districts of
the south. The Committee on Distribution are tuking
prompt measures to place supplies at the points of
greatest need. They are co-operating wit ti the Com
missions In Itoston and New York, so as to secure the
most efllcicnl and judicious aid io the sullurers.
Already they have placed three thousand bushels ot
corn In North Carolina, and other points will have
their Immediate attention. How tar they shall go In
satisfying tbe cuses of those who must perish it they
do not gel food, will depend on the conlntiutlnns of a
community that has never hilherlo turuedaway from

Tbe Moat Exciting and Interesting Book Ever Tub
llabedl
This work embraces an authentlo and official ac
count ot the hitherto suppressed lacts and Informa
tion obtained tiy General Haker, durum bis live years'
service as Chlel of the National Detective Police. It
was announced a year axo, but owiuij to tbe alleuipu
ot the Oovernnient to supiireas It, its publication wl
delayed. It will now be Iwued, unaltered and un
abridged, under tbe supervision ol General linker.
T he little Information and meagre accounts or his
operations d rived from tbe newspapers ol tbe day,
have only awakened a more Intense desire lu tba
minus of tbe reading community, to learn still more
of tbe mysteries heretofore hidden by the curtain of
olllclal surveillance.
T his book ellectuullv lifts the veil of secresy, and
lays bare their Inward recesses to the Inspection and
criuuiMuui iub wuriu.
T he morals of the National Capital are thoroughly
ventilated, and tliere are some filraiiK revelations
concerning heads of departments, members of Con
gress, female pardon brokers, aud distinguished mili
tary characters,
Kor thrilling interest these marvellous narrative
ot General Raker eclipse the famous exoerlencesol
KOL'CHKand VIDOCQ, and possess the rare merll
of truth for their recommendation, being all attested
by the highest ntllclal authority.
