JUDGE BLACK ON IRELAND.
TIIK YOKF, OF I'OMTICAI, IIONDAOF.
At tho celebration of tho centenary
of tlic Ctintlan declnratioti of Iriuli in-
cpcnik'iico in IJaltimoio last week
ilmluu Ulack spoke upon tlio Irish
UoiibltH. He saitl that lor seven cen
turies Ireland has worn the yoko of
olitienl boiulat'e. Dnrini: all that
ime, except one short interval, bIio has
not been permitted to make any laws
ior tnc protection ot nor own people in
licit' pel sons or propel ty. wnai tiiey
all homo rule, or the priv'tWo of local
self-government, is wholly denied
them. Their affairs are entirely di
rected by another power, whose orders
are executed by agents nud overseers
sent, upon them for that purnose.
uuh a Kovernmcnt is sure to bo ad
ministered without tho (smallest regard
for tho rights, interests, fceliiios or
ishes of the people who are subjeot
0 it. 1 he want of homo rule in lrc
and U the want of everything else. As
1 consequence of that privation sho
is oppressed, deKrnded, insulted, steei)-
ed in poverty to the very lips and
overwhelmed witlt aflHctions which
make her peculiarly what Senator
Bayard has called her "the Island
t borrows. llio general notion is
tat lti"land and Ireland aro united
kiiir. loms. But there is no real union.
iere is it connection mado by force :
they are "pinned together with bayo
nets." Ireland is not governed ac
cording either to the common or
statute law of England, but by special
legislation mado lor lier uioiiu. In
Hoct, the British Government, which
is a limited monarchy at Home, be
comes an unrestrained and absolute
espotisin when it crosses tho Channel s
nd tho exercise of this imboiiiidtd
lower through all the centuries of its
xistenco has been marked with the
coarsest cruelty and tho most heartless
oppression that this world has ever
ltuessed. It tho Irish had been in-
erior to the race which trampled them
down, their fate would seem less hard.
jut intellectually and morally they
were greatly superior; their civiliza
tion, science, art and general intelli
gence were much farther advanced.
The deliberate and lontr-eontinued
(Tort of Knglaud to darken tho mind
t Ireland and reduce her people as
much as possible to ignorance aud
illiterate barbarism is a most shocking
ait ot the story.
TUP. LAND (JL'KSTION.
Judge Black next took up the land
question and said that much of the
present trouble was duo to the un
natural relations between the millions
whoso labor cultivates the soil
md tho landlords, small in num
ber but meat in nower. who stand
eiidy to snatch away tho fruits of it as
soon as they arc gathered. Judtro
Black spoke of this land, formerly
owned by tho Iiish, as having been
iiken trom them. He believed in the
sacred right of property, but tho ex
istence ot that KiLMiitic monopoly.
clothed with the privilego of desolating
a country and starving the industry of
a people, was the Baddest fact in the
history oi me Human race. Kxcopt m
Ireland all nations of the earth had
been making somo procress. Durintr
the last forty yeai s tho population of
other.counlries hail doubled or trebled,
but in Ireland the numbers had been
reduced from nine millions to five, and
ot those who survive the great major-
ty weio sintering tho last extremes of
want and necessity. When the blood
of that unhappy people cries from the
ground, the British tyrant cannot an
swer like Cain, "Am 1 my brothers
keeper ?" The rulers of a nation aro its
keepers, responsible tor its fate, and
theso men have au awl til account to
render. But each defeated effort to
right themselves was mado an excuse
for the uitltctioii of new outrages.
Whole districts were depopulated by
the process which they called a clear
ance that is, tho destruction ol all
habitations and the expulsion of all oc
cupants, accompanied by circumstances
of tho direst cruelty. Political opin
ions adverse lo tho government were
suro to call down its wrath and malice
Even the fidelity of the people to their
religious convictions the highest vir
tno that can adorn any human charac
ter was imputed to inem as a crinio
and punished t-o barbarously that it
cannot bo thought ot without detesta
lion aim nun nr. l deny that this was
in any true sense a conllict of religious
opinion. J.et no l'roteslant plunder
his church by asserting that its doc
trims contain any warrant for perse
outing those who dissent from it. No
Clmstiiin man, with a conscience of
his own, ever thought himself author
ized to form the conscience of another.
English bigotry was nieielv simulated
to cover English rapacity.
what t an in: po.st, ?
But what can wo do for them? How
can wo help them in this fearful strait?
Wo liavo no right to como between
England and her subiects by any kind
oi lorco or violence, ior that is prohil
lied by the law of both countries and
by treaty stipulations. But you huvo
ways well understood of giving moral
comfort and material aid which break
no law. 1 he most devoted adherents
of tho British Ministry ncknowledirct
that tho success ol their Irish policy is
more endangered by your opposition
to it inan ny an other causes put to
gather. A Land Leaguo meiely Irish
they can easily repress, but a leaguu
with its roots on this side of tho At
lantic win grow to bo a power not
merely formidable but fatal to tho as
ccuaancy of tho landlords.
.ludgj lilack went on lo tell how thu
present ntltludo ot tho J,atul Eeagito
was a new era in the history of tho
contest. Agricultural laborers resolved
that they would not work for their
enemies, and tenants said they woul
voluntarily pay no rent without tho
distinct assurance- of some- permanent
ami substantial reiiei to tho country
it was tnu grainiest labor strike ou
record. I ho association was perfectly
lawiui. it spread pumo among lam
lords, middlemen and bailiffs. Tho
contest deepened ns it grow mor
intense, bomo of tlio landlords took
now views of their duty j tho Leaguo
pressed its appeal to tho heart ami con-
science of tho British nation, nud to
a great revolution took place in public
opinion. A new Parliament was elect
ed, which included nnionu its member
tho boldest nnd most eloquent leaders
of tho League, nnd a new Ministry
uiimo In solemnly plodired that Ireland
should liavo justice without denial or
delay. I he l'ai lliiment assembled and
it soon becamo ovldont that tho Min
istry instead of facing tho great ques
tion of the day like men wore anxious
only to shulllo out of their promises.
Tho land act of 1880 was a mere nbor
tion. No attempt was rando to stiBtnln
it. In less than n year it censed to livo
and was buried out of sight. Some
thing had to bo furnished Tn place of
it. In spite of all warning and against
tho steady protest of. tho wisest men
tho land act of 1881 was elaborated
and brought forth. Again all hopes
wtro disappointed tho now net exas
perated everybody and mado the anta
gonism between the parties more deadly
than ever. Tho leaders of the people
besought them not to swallow tins
stone, which they were offered n placo
of tho bread they had asked for. They
exhorted them to maintain theirattitudo
of passive obedienco nnd keep up tho
peaceful strike until its object should
be at least in somo measure accomplish
ed. To the unanswerable wisdom and
truth of this ndvice the government
had nothing to oppose except brute
force. The Leaguo was called a con
spiracy: its petition for jttstlco was
declared to bo n revolt ; its meetings
wero dispersed ; the members of Par
liament who had claimed fulfillment ot
tho Ministerial promises wero arrested;
livo hundred leading men, distinguish
ed as advocates of justice to Iieland,
and guiltless as tho child unborn of nny
offence, were kidnapped, dragged from
their homes and thrust into prison.
atkocious tykannv.
For a long titno Europe has seen no
tyranny so atrocious as this. Within
half a century Russian despotism has
not practiced that kind ot cruelty, even
i i'oiauii, on a scale so gigantic. The
urk has been on his cood behavior
ever sinco tho Greek revolution. It is
more than a hundred years ago that
tho bastilcs of Franco used to be filled
itli tho victims of personal and politi
cal spite. The English C5overuiueut
more despotic than all the rest. It
a mixturo of feudal barbarism aud
riental duplicity, harder to bear than
mediteval tyranny. Tho hand of
Gladstone is heavier on the heart
Ireland than the sword of
Henry II. Do not foriret that theso
sufferers arc men ot upriarut hon
orable and pure lives; they suffer
ecause of their good character. No
man liable to be condemned according
to the law is ever smitten against law.
Tho worst rulers aro content with the
egular machinery of justice when they
desire to suppress actual crime. It is
only against the innocent that they
employ the agency of the bravo and
tho kidnapper. The very order to seize
theso men and keep them imprisoned
wiinuiu it ui;u is iiruui conclusive mat
they have dono nothiuK worthy of
death or bonds. For aught I can seo
tho kidnapping of five hundred inno
cent persons for not believing in the
land act was as lawless as so many mur
ders. Thus far I have spoken of the
caso as it stands between tho British
Government and its Irish subiects.
Upou this we can only assist with our
oices in making up the judgment of
the world. But recent events have
given us a more particular interest in
thu subject matter. American citizens
have been kidnapped as basely as the
Irish patriots. What will wo do
auout mat f i Know not. tint it we
submit to this insult we must acknowl
edgo that England is tho master of
rcland and America both. If, on the
other hand, we call that lawless power
to a proper reckoning sho will seo tho
necessity not only ot dtscharKing the
American prisoners, but of making full
and ample reparation, lest a worst
thing come upon her. The relense of
tho Irish will necessarily follow, for
England cannot afford to admit that
sho has yielded to fear what she denies
to justice.
What is to bo the final outcome of
tho struggle? It needs no prophet to
foresee that Ireland is doomed to total
ilestruction if she bo not supported and
sustained by strength outside of hor
own. But if we, tho American people,
shall perform our duties fairly well,
aud it our government shall not at
tempt to shirk out of its public respons
ibiuties, tno nopu is a reasonable ono
that some ot us now hero may livo to
see Ireland "redeemed, regenerated and
disenthralled.
Hope Ahead.
A committee of stockholders who
waited upon tho superintendent ot a
California mine to nslc why in blazes
the said initio hadn't panned out any
thing but assessments, wero craciously
received, invited to bo 6eated, and tho
othcial explained:
"Uentlemen, you aro all awaro of

work when tho month of our mine was
blocked by a land slide. That put

They nodded their remembrance.
"Then wo had iust cot in shnpo to

How the Jeannettc Sank.
Tho San Francisco CW" publishes a
letter from Dr. II. C. Ledyard, an
American, now in Siberia, to a friend
in that city. At Irkutsk Dr. 'Ledyard
met Lieutenant Danenhowcr, who gavo
him interesting details of tho loss of
tho Jeannettc. Sinco tho first fall they
wero out, when they wero caught bv
tho ico in trying to reach Herald Island,
they had never taken a course, but the
vessel was held as in jaws of death,
Bqucczcd until every timber wos strain
ed. They were every hour in suspense,
never knowing when tho ico would
closo upon them. Throughout this
strain they wero well hud tried to bo
cheerful. They worked very hard,
for tho engine nnd tho men wero
barely able to keep tho water out.
They had to pump for n vear and a
half,
On Juno 11, 1881, tho crisis came.
The ship showed greater straining than
before, tho deck quivered nnd inexpli
cable movements warned them to
hasten from the vessel. They prepaied
their boats and made their camp be
side the Jeaiinctte. She roso aud
turned in her cradlo until tho ynrds
touched tho ice. Then the rigging
gavo away and her masts lay prostrate.
At -1 o'clock in tho morning tho lloe
parted and all went down. A cry of
alarm called all to escape from tho
crevice in tho ice. It opened just
through the captain's tent. Then be
gan the retreat. For twenty-nine days
they struggled southward, 300 miles
of broken ico being thus passed over.
Four miles a day was thought good
fortune. After one scries of fourteen
days, they wero twenty-seven miles
further north than at first. While
working over tho ice and dragging
threo boats they discovered Bennett
Island, to exploro which they spent
three weeks ot their precious summer
day and expended much of their limited
supply of food. To this detour those
who survived attribute much of their
suffering aud tho death of their
commander, with nineteen men. After
three months of this perilous and ex
hausting work they came to blue water,
and then, with fair winds, took their
courso for tho mouth of the Lena river.
Chief Engineer Melville's boat was stovo
atjainst a block of ico and the captain s
boat lost her mast and sail. The cap
tain landed with all well, but aban
doned tho boat, as tho water was shal
low and could not make the channel of
the river.
Amole A Plant that Yields Soap.
These cacti grow on the American
continent from Mount Shasta on the
north to a similar latitude in South
iVtncrica, anu irom tno i-aciuc coast, to
east of the Rio Grande, through New
Mexico, and western Texas.
The ilower stalks aro destitute ot
leaves but aro plentifully supplied with
branches about eighteen niches long,
from which llowcrs of white and yel
low colors are suspended in the
flowering season. The bulbous root is
from one to six inches in diameter nnd
from six to eiglitecu inches long.
A saponaceous juice is expressed
from the root and the fibre of the
leaves is heckled for the manufacture
of mattresses, cushions, aud chair scats.
Tho vegetable soap extracted from the
root has been used by tho Indians,
Mexicans, nnd others for many years
as n hair wash, and exceeds in purity
our manufacture from animal sub
stances.
The preservative qualities of the
soap arc well known, and its use gives
the hair a line natural glow, preventing
decay of the hair and eradicating
dandruff or other impurities on the
scalp.
(Jattlo eat the leaves in the bpnng
as a purgative. And cut into bits and
thrown on water where fish abound,
tho effect is stupefacation of tho fish,
when they can bo easily taken.
The price among tho Indians and
Mexicans, who sell it in Tucson, is five
cents for a bunch of two stalks inter
laced'(mancuerua). 1' or cleaning flannols the amole is
found vastly superior. It may bo
hoped that the manufacture and prep
aration of amole may become ono of
tho industrial pursuits of the age.

A Very Old Bell.
The bell hanging in tho belfry of tho
Episcopal church in EUicoltville, N. Y.,
is ono of tho oldest in America. It
was cast in Moscow, Russia, in 1708,
and was ono of n chime of bells in a
cathedral in that city. The cathedral
was burned by .Napoleon in 181 1.
Several years afterward tho bell was
sold in n lot of old metal which became
ballast for a vessel sailing to New York
without a cargo. Andrew Meneelev,
of Troy, discovered it in n scrap pile
in iSew lork years nitonvard. llo
bought it and for a long timo it was
kept by him at his bell foundry in Troy
as a curiosity. In 1831 n resident of
Ellicottvillo went to Troy to buy a bell
for tho Episcopal church which had
been completed. Ho induced tho
foundrymnii to sell him tho old Russinu
bell. It has been in use ever since.
