THE IRISH. The Irish Convention, to merge the Land into the National League, assembled in Horticultural Hall, Philadelphia, on Wednesday, April 33. It was largely attended, and the personnel of the convention favorably impressed the on-lookers. An organization was effected by an election of the following officers: President, James A. Mooney, of Buffalo, President of the Irish Land League of the United States; Secretary. J. J. Hynes, of Buffalo, Secretary of the Irish Land League of the United States: Assistant Secretaries, William F. Sheehan, of Buffalo, and J. D. O’Connell, of Washington. President Mooney delivered an address of some length/ It was highly eulogistic of Parnell and denunciatory of Gladstone, end was received with Br*»t applause. There were twenty-five female delegates ta the meeting, and Mrs. Parnell occupied a position of honor on the stage. repot* showed that in the last year $79,<88 bad been recjired; that had been sent to Irel<ndfor league and relief purposes, and that 5W branch leagues existed in the united States and Canada. Aft x a somewhat lengthy debate, during which there was considerable confusion, a motion for the appointment of a member from each delegation as a committee to devise a plan for the merging of the Land League into the National League was adopted and the committee appointed. The attitude of the United States toward Great Britain was discussed, and Father McKenna, of New York B ate, offered a resolution denouncing the course of President Arthur as cowardly, declaring that, should he be a candidate for reMec.ion, he should receive no Irish votes. He was promptly ruled out of order. Father Conaty, of the com mi tee appointed to report a plan f ortho m rging of the conventions, said the committee was in favor of allowing the conventton to say whether or not it should carry on its organisations in the present form by adopting the platform of the Irish National League. They, however, recommended the adoption of two resolutions, one indorsing the principles and objects of the Irish National League, and the second that the delegates attend the convention in a body to-morrow and assist in promoting the union of all Irish patriotic bodies. The report was formally received. Mr. O’Brien, of New York, moved that the convention step from its platform to that of the Irish National League, and that the officers be elected immediately, so that it might go into the convention an organised body. Mr. Brown offered a substitute to the effect that the chair appoint a committee of seven, with power to declare the Land League adjourned. There was long and spirited wrangling, and this substitute was carried: “Resolved, That when thi-i convention adjourn it be to meet with the convention to-morrow, and that the Chairman aupoint a committee or seven with power to declare the Land League adjourned sine die, provided the convention to-morrow complies with the reports submitted and adopted here this evening by the committee appointed to submit a plan of reorganization.” Speeches were made by Brennan and Egan, the latter stating that while he was Treasurer of the League $1,230,000 passed through his hands. O’Donovan Rossa was present in the hall, but merely as the representative of a paper with which he has a nominal connection. The convention adionmed at 2 o'clock a. m. Tmt delegates to the Irish National League Convention assembled in Horticultural Hall, Philadelphia, to the number of 1,200, on the morning of April 26. They represented Irish societies of every description in all States and most of the Territories. Forty of them were women. In the temporary organization the Rev. Maurice J. Dorney, of Chicago, was made Chairman. An animated debate arose upon the adoption of the report of the Committee on Rules, some of the delegates declaring that the rules submitted would suppress the liberty of debate. The rules were adopted. Congressman M. A. Foran, of Cleveland, Ohio, was made permanent President. O’Donovan-Rossa and other pronounced advocates of the dynamite theory were admitted to the convention -without protest. A telegram from Charles 8. Parnell to the President of the Irish-American Convention was read. Mr. Parnell advised the framing of a platform which would enable the Irish Land League and the constitutional agitators in Ireland to accept aid from America, at the same time avoiding anything which might furnish the British Government with a pretext for suppressing the national movement in Ireland. He expressed his confidence that if prudence, moderation and firmness ruled the convention the cause of Ireland would be advanced. After the announcement of the committees the convention adjourned for the day.

The convention concluded its labors on Friday, April 27, after having organized the Irish National League of America, with Alexander Sullivan, of Chicago, as President. and John J. Hynes, of Buffalo, as Secretary. A National Committee of one from each State and Territory was chosen, who selected an Executive Committee of seven, consisting of the Rev. Mr. McKenna, of Massachusetts; Dr. W. Wallace, of New York; James Reynolds, of Connecticut; M. V. Gannon, of Iowa; Judge J. G. Donnelly, of Wisconsin; John F. Armstrong, of Georgia; and United States Senator James Fair, of Nevada. The first hours of the day’s session were occupied with speeches .and the reading bf letters of sympathy from various persons. The platform of the organization was then submitted to the convention by the Committee on Resolutions. The resolutions start with a fierce arraignment of English government in Ireland, and declare that “there i no form of retaliation to which despair or madness may resort, tor which English cruelty in Ireland is not exclusively responsible.” Specifically, it is charged that English rule has annihilated liberty in Ireland; that landlordism has impoverished the people, while a selfish policy has not so much as permitted manufactures to obtain a foothold in the island; that England has not maintained peace and order in Ireland, but for 700 years has kept the country involved in bloodshed and anarchy; that the pretense of Irish representation in Parliament is a mockery of the shallowest sort, and that, while measures proposed in Parliament by members from England or Scotland receive polite consideration, the fact that a bill is introduced by an Irish member suffices tor its arrogant rejection. The resolutions then assert that the course of the English Government has deprived it of any right, if one ever existed, to rule Ireland; pledge material and moral support of the Irish in America in all efforts of their countrymen at home to recover the right of self-government; incidentally score Forster and praise Parnell; express sympathy for the farm laborers of Ireland, who are commended to the kindly consideration qf farmers; counsel Irishmen to buy nothing in England that can be procured from the United Statesexpress contempt for the Liberal Ministry of Great Britian; condemn the action of the English Government in sending impoverished Irish to these shores; thank American prelates for the aid they have secured for ’lrish emigrants, and indorse Mr. Egan's administration of the Land League finances. 'An attempt to discuss the resolutions seriatim was overwhelmingly defeated, though Congressman Finerty, of Chicago, entered a vigorous protest. At the closing, Mrs. Parnell, who was elected President of the Ladles’ Land League, made a short address, and, amid great enthusiasm, placed a wreath of laurel on a picture of Gen. Washington. The song, “God Save Ireland,” was sung by delegates and audience, and the convention was declared adjourned sine die.

SWIFT DEATH.

Sudden Sweep of a Terrific Cyclone Through the Southern States. Nothing Save Mangled Corpses and Ruined Homes Left in the Storm’s Track. A tornado of almost unprecedented violence and destructiveness passed over sections of Mississippi, Georgia and Alabama on the 22d of April, leveling towns, villages, farm-houses and forests, and killing and maiming people by the hundreds A dispatch from Jackson, Miss, says that for three days the wind bad blown ta gale, and lowering clouds indicated a coming storm. At Wesson the storm’s approach was marked by deep rumbling sounds, rattling windows and quivering earth. Thunder roared, and the lightning flashed with dreadful force ana dazzling vividness. Then, with the fury of ten thousand demons, the gale burst upon the town. Fences were torn to pieces and sent whirling through the air; tree.i that had stood the fiercest storms for ages were uprooted and hurled hundreds of yards Houses were demolished, and the pine forest encircling the town was blown out of existence. As soon as the wind's violence had somewhat abated, and the citizens had begun to look about, the church bells rang out in loud peals the signals of distress and death. Men ran from all directions toward West Wesson, though the rain was pouring down in drenching torrenta When Peach Orchard street had been reached, a scene terrible in the extreme, tut simply indescribable, burst upon the view. There the houses of a large number of the operatives of the Mississippi Mills had stood, and there the greatest destruction had occurred. Dwellings on a’l sidds had been torn to atoms, while under the debris the groans of the wounded and dying were heard, striking terror to the stoutest heart. A momentary hesitation only occurred, and then the work of removing the dead and extricating the wounded began. The maimed were removed to the nearest houses which had escaped the tornado The dead were taken from the ruins and laid on the grass, while the rescuers turned hastily from them to answer a cry of distress. Several of the corpses lay out in the storm and rain for more than an hour, but as soon as the wounded and living were cared for -they were taken up and reverently placed on stretchers in the churchea Sixteen persons were killed outright, and eighty wounded, at Wesson.

A correspondent gives the following graphic description of the scene at Beauregard: Many people in Beauregard saw the black wind coming, for its roaring and moaning had brought them to the doors of their houses and stores These people described it as like a black smoke, filled with flame, rolling along the earth, while high above it were tossed trees and plants and bricka The smoke seemed to do little harm, but in the vortex which was behind it everything went down. It was about a minute in reaching Beauregard and three seconds in passing over it, and when it went by, the town was no more, the houses and trees being beaten down and ground into dust and splintera The route of the cyclone was followed by the cries of fear and the wails of anguish of those who were buried under the ruins of the buildings A deluge followed the blow. The rain came down in sheets, and the ditches and gutters became raging rivera The Mayor states that when he came to himself he actually feared that he and his family would be drowned. The darkness of the night followed the darkness of the storm so closely that it was impossible to realize the terrible destruction, but the morning sun laid bare a scene of desolation, with every house, save three, swept away, and nothing but splinters left behind. jSven beyond the town where Stood a heavy pine forest the trees had been felled and carried away in the path of the cyclone. Martin Moody, a prominent merchant, was found close by a tree, his face buried in his hands, ana fatally wounded, his wife near him, also badly injured. They were out walking when the storm came up, and sought refuge in a boxcar in which seven negroes were playing cards. The oar was lifted from the track and carried away a hundred yards three of the negroes being instantly killed. Dr. Lampkin’s residence was in the center of the town. When he emerged from the ruins of his house he found his wife painfully wounded, and her little boy seriously injured. They had been blown away a hundred yards. On the porch of the house were John 8. Terrill, Dr. Jones, his wife and two children, and a little boy. All were dead. Only one child of the Jones family is alive. Mr. George Holloway and J. Westerfield sought refuge in a deep gully, but were struck by flying timbers and Westerfield injured and Holloway killed. Mr. Will Parker, his wife and son were buried beneath the timbers of their house. Mrs. Parker will lose an arm. The other two are dead. The cyclone went through Beauregard due north and south, nearly i long the line of Main street, the' chief business street, demolishing the most solid brick stores, and leaving only three houses-standing in the upper portion of the town, and killing twenty-six and wounding 100 persons. The scene in the town is fearful It looks as if a fire had swept over it The houses are not blown upside down, but are flattened out and torn to splintera Twenty-six persons were found dead in the inins of the town, and over 100 were wounded, many of them beyond the hope of recovery. The town of Tigblman was almost in the track of the tornado. Several houses were demolished, and four or five people ki led. The cyclone passed over that portion of Aberdeen known as Freedmen's town, inhabited almost exclusively by blacka Fifteen lives were lost, and about fifty people wounded, mostly negroes. At Caledonia several houses were blown down, three persons killed and ten wounded. At Starkville, many houses were razed, five persons were killed and sixty maimed. Meridian, West Point and other towns suffered heavy losses In life and property. Through the rural districts the cyclone swept everything before it, leveling houses, fences and trees, and killing many people A section of the tornado was also felt in Alabama and Georgia, though not so severely as in Mississippi At Albany, Ga, a house was blown down, killing a man and his wife Afloat on Flint river were six colored men, named Edward Jones, Pink Simmons, Chancey Griffith, Ned Lester, John Kimbrough and Peter Smith, who ran against the shore and in paddling in the darkness for land all were drowned. At Cruger’s Postoffice, near by, six were killed and eighteen wounded. At Eastman and vicinity half a dozen were killed and some forty wounded. In and about Preston, four or five were killed and many injured. The track of the storm was about 9to yards in width; it did not blow more than fifteen minutes, and was followed by torrents of rain and hail Some of the hail-stones were four or five inches in diameter, and weighed a pound.

HOTEL LIFE IN JAPAN.

Mr Traveler* Are Accommodated In th* Flowery Kingdom. (From a Letter in the San Francisco Chronicle.] Life in a Japanese hotel is a revelation of carelessness one would have to travel far to duplicate. The construction of the house is responsible for much of this, for every room is entered from a corridor open to the sunlight and general use, the sliding paper screen when in position admitting all the light that ground glass would give. The occupants are served with their meals in their rooms* each person ordering as he' desires st any moment during the day or evening. An order given for a meal to be served* is filled immediately. A clap of the hands summons a servant to attend to* you, and that without delay. The matted floor is the sofa to lounge upon, there being provided a cotton or silk-quilted cushion for the use of each person. During the day it is very rare to find the screens closed at the front of any room occupied by visitors. The interior of every department is as open as to the inspection of every one in the house as it is to the uses of the occupant. The' conversation is the property of neighbors as well, unless carried on in a very low tone. At night the bedding arrangements are prepared when required. A number of thick quilts, piled onb upon the other, complete the outfit, with a rest for the head. A light is placed in the room that is supposed to burn all night. It is a ( mail taper, placed in a vessel containing a vegetable oil that is put inside of a small lantern made of paper, standing some three feet high. The preparation of food at the hotels is a process that can be witnessed by the guests, as the kitchen and cooking facilities are placed in open view of all. Kitchen, storeroom, pantry and general office of the establishment generally occupy the most conspicuous room on the premises. The cooking is done on portable furnaces and charcoal fires. There are no chimneys needed or used. Fish are usually kept in a reservoir and killed as they are needed. Fresh vegetables are kept under the trickling water, and in all well-conducted places there is a scrupulous neatness manifest in all the culinary arrangements. Everyone, guest or otherwise, must take off his shoes before he can enter the establishment. There is no creaking noises or trampings heard to irritate the nervous, and corns never trouble while one is in a Japanese hotel. The mats upon the floors are as yielding to the tread as the most luxurious carpets ever made. I wish I could say that there were no fleas to trouble a guest as he seeks to compose himself, but in truth he can not, and a great drawback it is to one’s comfort to be pestered with these nimble insects that are domesticated and at home in these places. The thick mats upon the floor make famous places to hide in. Mosquitoes are guarded against by a large net attached to the ceiling of the room and reaching to the floor, being nearly as large as the room. When the net is in position for the night, if it is in perfect condition, the mosquito is left out in the cold. He may sing his song, but he can not bite. If some one would invent some method to hive fleas he would make his fortune quickly.

A Singular Phenomenon.

Three or four gentlemen were comfortably seated in front of a hotel in Austin, exchanging reminiscences and untruths regarding their experiences during the war. All of these gentlemen had fought, bled and come very near dying in the Confederate army. Each had something interesting to tell about battles in which he had been engaged. There was one exception. Col. John Randolph Fanning, a Virginian gentleman who had distinguished himself on the field, listened to what the others said, but did not volunteer to impart any of his own experience. “Now it is your time, Colonel,” said Maj. Rangoon of North Carolina. “Can’t you give us something startling? Tell us about the Federal battery you captured at Chancellorsville. ” “Since you insist upon it, gentlemen,” replied Col. Fanning, “I will relate a little incident connected with the capture of that Yankee battery. It struck me as being very singular. The story is about my horse Black Hawk. He was, as some of you know, a jet black—not a white hair on him except a star on his forehead. He was a splendid riding apimal, but he was not precisely a war horse like the animal described by Job. He was more of a lady’s horse than a war steed. When he sniffed the battle from afar, and heard the shouting and the noise of the Captains, he didn’t say ‘Ha! Ha!’ as Job’s charger did. He wasn’t that kind of a horse. ”

“Probably his heart was not in the straggle. He may have been an imported Northern horse with abolition tendencies,” suggested Maj. Rangoon. “No, it wasn’t that,” said the Colonel. “He was naturally a timid animal. This was the first time that I had ridden Black Hawk into battle, and the poor brute trembled all over. I received an order to advance under cover as near as possible to the battery, and then charge.' Just before we made the charge a shell from the battery fell within ten feet of my horse. He reared up, and uttered the peculiar cry of a horse in mortal terror. The poor fellow trembled so that I was in danger of falling off. Fortunately the shell did not explode. A moment later I was leading my regiment in a headlong charge on the battery, with shells exploding over and on every side of us. Only one-third of my regiment survived that fearful charge. After the battery had been captured, I noticed that all of my men looked very strangely at me and my charger. I happened to glance at the animal, and, gentlemen, what I am stating is a solemn fact, to my amazement, instead of being on the back of a black horse, I was riding a white horse. Excessive fright had changed everv hair on the animal from coal black to a snowy white—all except the little star on his forehead, that had turned as black as your hat. I never heard of a similar occurrence, gentlemen. It was very remarkable.” — Texas Siftings.

Ignorance in School.

An examination of the younger children in the Boston public schools not long since revealed some rather curious facts. The examination was accidental. It was also quite out of the usual line of school tests. If the questioner had asked the children something that was in their books they doubtless would* have answered brilliantly. Undoubtedly thev could have told him what a participle was. But he asked them about everyday things, and here were the answers he got: Eighteen per cent, of the young ones didn’t know anything about a cow, except from pictures; 61 per cent, had never seen coin growing. Ninety per cent, of these children educated in the public schools, which are the glory of America, did not know where their ribs were, or exactly what they were. When asked what and where their stomachs were, however, all but 6 per cent, seemed to have something like a correct idea. They had had stomach-ache often enough to know that, bless the little creatures 1

Shoppers Who Won’t Buy.

A New York dry goods man wishes something could be done to put a stop to the shoppers-who-never-buy nuisance. These people are very well known to the stores* and they don't give as much trouble as formerly, but still they take up valuable time. The moment an “old-timer” comes up to the counter she is recognized by some of the salesmen, and the warning signal, a tap on the counter, is passed along the line. Then there is fun. The “old-timer” will call for a certain shade of yellow. She is told that it is not in stock. “Oh, what a pity!” exclaims she; “that is just what I wanted. If you had it I would buy sixteen yards of it.” Then it is the next man’s turn. He comes up accordingly, and tells the first salesman that he is mistaken, that there is still a bolt of twenty yards of that identical stuff in the store. He brings it forward and lays it down. You would think the shopper- who-never-buys would be disconcerted at this turn of affairs. Not a bit of it. She says, smilingly: “Oh, that is just what I want. Lay it aside for me, and I will see my dressmaker and find out just how many yards she needs, and to-morrow I’ll come back and buy it.” Then she departs with a simper, but she never comes back. It is said there are no such trials in England, and the reason is that there about seven-eighths of the population are housekeepers who have no time to loiter around stores, whereas in New York fully two-thirds of the people live in boarding-houses, and time hangs heavy on their hands, and they kill it by worrying salespeople. .

Arizona’s Mineral Wealth.

It is but a few years ago that Arizona was looked upon as simply a worthless desert waste, useless alike for farming and stock-raising, while the owners of a few small mines which were known and worked labored under the great disadvantage of having to rely upon the slow ox and mule teams for the transportation of their supplies and products. Communication with the outside world was not only difficult, but the pioneer miners were in such constant dread of Indian raids upon them that it was impossible to develop Arizona Territory with much success or profit. But a great dhange has taken place since the completion of the Southern Pacific Railroad across the Territory, and though the railroad does not extend directly to any of the mining camps, the increased facilities for transportation, and the opening up of the Territory in consequence of it, have increased dts population and developed its mining interests within the past two or three years wonderfully, and specially during the year 1882 the Territory has made great advances in its resources. From statistics recently published it appears that Arizona ranks third among the States and Territories in the production of gold, silver, copper andlesfU, the total production of these metals aggregating in value for 1882, $11,702,293.— Scientific American. English railroads have paid, since 1876, over $5,000,000 in damages for personal injuries to passengers. In 1876, $1,435,000 was paid in this way. Russians drink their tea from glass cups.

THAT TIRED FEELING.

There is no infirmity so oppressive burdensome to the human mind as that tired feeling of which invalids complain on the approach of serious disorder. The depression and despondency of spirit attending this state are immeasurable. The lassitude, languor and debility peculiar to this condition are wholly overcome by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla. A lady tells us'the first bottle has done my daughter a great deal of good; her food does not distress her now. nor does she suffer from that extreme tired feeling which she did before taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla.’ A second bottle effected a cure. A prominent business man remarks: 'ln the spring my wife got all run down and could noteat anything. I saw a pile of Hood’s Sarsaparilla in the window of an apothecary, and I got a bottle.
