Mason is something worse than a fraud a nondescript, Christless whe'p, whose ambition it is to add insult to injury by an exhibition of depravity and malice, backed by the ostentatious display of money, and who u to be convinced 4'intellip'ently" that the Irish race is not despicable beyond measure? Not nti intelligent Jury; not men of brains and soul; not men distinguished for love of G d, country, liberty and their fe!low-mcn. The person to ba intelligently" convinced 13 William G. Mason, a human reptile, who claims to have money, but who would not part with a farthing of it, though all the taints thtt ever lived, and all the acrr?h that ever ttirred the air cf Farai.fe with their wings were to testify that his propositions are covert alandsra against the Iriah race, nor would the mean miscreant re'iftx his gra-sp npon his sold, though it were prorf n beyond ctvil that the Iri&h race, a3 a rare.

There are in ie Pt.ited State3 to day at b.-aat 13,000.00) j.Cij.;e who are rjaticsor Ireland and the elr'CccJarita of Iriah parents. As toilers they fc.'ü icni and faithful. As soldiers thvy

are brave. Aj citizens, loyal to every obligation. As legislators, the peer of their associates, and William G. Mason, or any other deformed apologist of British infernalism who seeks by qnery or inuendo t stigmatize the Irish race, will find Americana, from whatever race they have sprung, V worthy cf the name, faking special pride in denouncing these slanders. There is not to-day on the face of the earth a sublimer spectacle thai Ireland presents tor the admiration of men of eoul. Crushed, poverty-stricken, till famine, gaunt and ghastly, confronts her people; terrorized by by prisons, solcMers, exile and fcalTolds, they are still defiant, etJll hopeful, and still struggling. By all the virtues that have redeemed the world from darkness, Ireland rxay proudly challenge comparison with any other country under Heaven for sacrifices, heroic deed", devotion to the right and faith in God. That there have been treacherous, servile and cruel Irishmen, no one detie?. But what country has escaped buch ai'.lictiona and humiliations'.' Not England nor America. To malizn a race for the crimes of the few ia so monstrously infamous that be who is guilty of the perfidious dander is himself viler than the wretches he condemns. It has been the policy of England for centuries to degrade the Irith character. Ignorance was enforced by statute and the worship of God degraded to a felony; homes reduced to the lairs of wild beasts, and the people denied the commonest recognitions humanity dictate?. TLe wonder is that the inhabitants of Ireland have cot degenerated into Bavages, and this ould have resulted but for th nobility of the race. It has survived every ordeal, and ia to-day pleading its cause before the world with a heroism as lotty as ever animated mm since the days when an inscrutible God permitted the devil to aflec t the man of IT. We in America knew as much of the Irish race as is known in England. The Iriah are among us. They are here with all the peculiarities of their race. They have cot forgotten their native land, nor their etrugling, oppressed countrymen, brwed beneath the Uritish joke. Is it possible to name a nobler tribute to the race It was said of the captive Hebrews that they never forgot Jerusalem, the vine-clad hills and the sacred mountains of their native land. Why should Irishmen cease to pray for their country or cease to help their countrymen? It is enough for Americans to know that Ireland ia struggling for liberty, for land, for food, for homes, for contentment aad security. "The MVdgi loves his native f bore. Tbo' riKl'j the coil and chill the air, Then why not Irit-rtmeu adore Tbe land which nature formed so fair?" There is no reason why not. "We honor the Irish-American more because of his sympathy for Ireland. He is a batter American because of such devotion. 1 1 is characteristic of the race, and there is not one which crowns t with a more gtorious sheen. Mac ci. at.jrea William G.

jAMtta CAKhiY. English atrocities in Ireland, in the minds of all honorable, liberty loving people, without regard to nationality, create unutterable loathirg. Such people are forever hurling maledictions at England, but to anathematize England in the English language is far better than to utter curses upon her infernalisms in any other language. Kngland is not satisfied with her rule in Ireland where she has permanently established famine and where Jehovah intended plenty should reward toil. She is not satisfied wh9n she has evicted the poor from their hovels and compelled them to live or die as the elements mlht determine. She is not satisfied when she has exiled millions and filled her Prisons with thousands. Sue thirst3 for Irish blood, and t3 saliafy her craving ehe has pursued a policy in Ireland that has produced such monsters cs Jaruea Carey. England has been known many, many yean ago, when desiring to convici aa Irishman of treas jn to hunt through her Prisons for some wretch conderaed to die, and oil'sr him. pardon, favor and leward if he would consent to damn his soul with perjury and turn informer. James Carey, similarly situated, answered the late demand. It has been tbocght that thare is a time with men and Nations wiien cruelty and oppression become satiated and fatigued. But England, in her treatment of Ireland, is an exception. Like the beast that symbolizes her po .ver, the taste of blocd calls forth her ferocity. But we do injustice to the lion by makii g it representative of Eas'-iän. d-moni.ni in Ireland. Ireland has had t ceta and oraton of genius as aspiring, fancy as vivid and imagination a far reaching as hos fnüen to the lot of any Nation from the days of Adam to O'Connor, but not one of t'-em all has ever been able, with all tieir wealth of worda, to describe English devilishnes in their native land. The immortal Curran said on one occaon: "If, for instance, you wished to convey to the mind of an Englüh matron the horrors of thil diieful period when, in defiance of the nmnstrance of the ever to be lamented Abercrombie, our poor pcoila were surrendered to thi l.cer.tious brutality of the soldiery by the authority of the btate, you would vainly endeavor to give her a general picture of last and ratine and murder and conllagrati r. Take a cottage, place the affright ?d m t!ier of ber orphan daughters at the do r, the paleness of death upon her face, and m ;e :hnn its agonies in her heart; her aching heart, her anxious ear, ttrugjling through the mist of closing day to catch the ai . rt i( hs of. desolation and dishonor. The ruffian garg arrives, the feast of plunder begins, the cup of madness kindlea in its circulation. The wandering glances of the ravisher become concentrated upon the shrinking anl devoted victim. Yoa need not dilate, you need rot expatiate. The unpolluted mother to whom you tell the story of horror beseeches j on not to proceed; she presses her child to her heart; she drowns it in her tears; her farcy catches more than an angel's tongue could describe; at a single view she takes in the whole miserable succession of force, of pre fana'jon, of despair, of death." it i3 qaite ts difUcult to describe the cie of the informer, Jemes Carey. With liesin his throat and perjury cn Ü3 lips he doo uei men to dea'ih for a consideration. The En plish Government purchased him, and when It bad ob'ained the required service itnns?d bin. rd finally shipped hini to a rom jie triner cf Africa. The miserable wre ch at lest thought himself secure. lie had reached

his destination. Bat vengence bad ben upon his track, and tb British Government could not save him. O'D mnelL, his Nemesis, was ready, and the fatal bnllef aped ita way to the mformer's heart, and his slayer, flourishing hia weapon, cried out, ' Tba'. is Jan.es Carey, g d hii soul!" Then CDornell. who is said to be a 1 American an Irish-American was placed in irons, and will doubtless hang in due time. Whether he doe or not, matters little. He fought a good fight, and though Carey turned traitor O'Donnell kept the faith, aLd millions of Irishmen will keep his memory green forever: and not only Irishmen, but liherty-loving men of all Natiers. TheJIrish Invinciblesarenotdisiuayed, &cme one writes "A Ct? for Ireland:" Oh. for n leader to lead ns! O (J d f r a leaner to ld u! To n-acri uh our strength and o ir weakness, To tell all the worm we are true, oil ibut o'ierofoiioii'ioni in Who should r.a a tu- votoe of thee, Kxin! The cry. It which we have wnlted.

The leader may or may not come, that is a matter for the future, but one thin ts "ertain, the true Iriah spirit is not yet ctushed. There are lnvincibles still, and they may jet teech the Bri Government in a it will hed that "Ireland shall be free."

INFIDFLUY Vd tHE CHURCH. Let us begin with definitions. Infidelity signifies "want of faith or belief; a withholding of cmliienee; disbelief of the inspiration cf the Scriptures, or the divine origin of Christianity." Evangelism is defined aj "preaching cr promulgation of the Gospel." Evangelists affirm; infidels deny. What Churches build, infidels eeek to destroy. It is a war of ideas, a conilict of opinions. The struggle has been going cn since the diy when the Church formulated its first dogma and fulminated its first decrees. Those who give their time to patient and protracted investigation of subjects bearinedirectly or remotely upon Infidelity and the Churh are at once confronted by conditions which they find exceedingly ditHcult of explanation. If they Etart out with the proposition that the Gospel proclaims peace end good will, justice and fraternity, equality and elevation, they are bound by every consideration of honesty to declare that the Church which claims to be the heaven-designated custodian of the Gospel, fcas, to an extent which defies exaggeration, betrayed its trust. Reference is not made to sry particular denomination or country but to the Church aa a whole, and to all Christendom. If it be said that the Church in America is the band-maid of progress and of all that is ennobling and dignifying in civil züion, what may be said of the Church in B 1 sia, Austria, Spain and other countries which fly the banner of the Cross and claim tu be in a special manner governed by the precepts of the Gospel? At every step in the investigation difficulties and contradictions multiply and become more and more formidable. To remove the obstructions is equivalent to displacing mountains, and to reconcile clashing opinions and practica is tantamount to harmonizing fire and wa'er, or light and darkness. In one country the Church liberates, in another it enslaves. In BuHaia it is the recognized aid of despotism, the advocate of autocracy and aristocracy. In the United States it champions the cause of popular sovereignty, the will of th people, in matters of Government. Under such circumstances it is not surprising that icfiielity, without a tearch warrant, finds ample excuse for attacking the Church. It confronts the Church with the declaration that it is divided; that its practices are not on!y contradictory, but that they belie its pnif nons, and in the presence of the facts the Cburch is driven to the necessity of exlann'iors. It to be expected that infidelity will avul itself of each conditions to bombard the Church, and since the Church cla ms to be governed in all things by the Bible, inii leliiy Gt.da in the practices of the Church wh&t it conceives to b9 just reasons for discarding the Christian's Bible, and just here the inqiiry forces itself upon the atteuiion of thoughtful people, Is the Church in any degree responsible for infidelity? From thU question springs a brood of interruga'ories, doubts and perplexities, which earnest and h ner.t men find to their dismey can not be exorcised. They will not down at tf.e bidd.ng of argument or prayer, paitu or per.al'ies, decrees or anathemas. It may not be agreeable for the Church to explain the reason why infidelity is rife, since an hon-st exposition would diecloae the fact that its own mistakes would be found fruitful cf disbelief. Take, for luatance, the fact that the Proes?ant Church ceaaeles3ly wars against the Roman Catholic Church and rke rtrsa. Again, if investigation is turned toward ibe p'otestaut Church, what a scene of wrcngiing, of division, of antagcEisni ia presenud. Everything is discordant and belligerent. Mo tilities develop into hates, mercy gives place to malignity, amenities are di-cs'd-'d or animosities, and these sad condi'iot.s ae the outgrowth of radical difiVrfi ce 111 the interpretation of the Bible. Ii it to be thought anomalous that under puc'i onditions infidelity makes its appearance in the arena, and with defitnt voice proclaims I tc relent) es antagonism ? What more natural ttian flint a dispassionate spectator should c n e to the conclusion tha faith is fie ion, arid profession the progenitor of confusion. Manifestly, the Church has the right to declaim 8gInst infidelity, b it, may it not be raid ith equal ingenuousness that infidelity may p int to the Church and declare that from around its sacred altars havegone forth ir fluences productive of doubt and disbelief? for, since the Church itself, is made up of hostile fragments, which no amount of faith and grace has been able to bring into harmony, a legitimate result is reached, when lookers on declare that in the midst of such c?aselevt internal warfare, thoChuroa is illy equipped to discover the truth or guide the world. It is quite possible that the Church ia tu j i-t iu its estimates of in fidelity; that i ruanifes the Injurie unbelief has it Ü e'ed, ar.J dwarfs tha blessings it has conferred upun the world. That the Church should be har-h in its judementsis all the more abnormal es a mind development, sit'C it claims for its If the high prerogative of beiief und disbelief, as occasion may require the exercise

of its rights. Aa, for it sta onbranch of the Church promujtrates the doctrine that from the foundation of the world God elected a certain portion of the human family to erj y eternal felicity, and another portion to linger in eternal torment Another branch cf the Church asserts the doctrine to be monstrous, while it holds fast to a belief in eternal pains for some and unfortunately for the majority of thoee who people the world.'again others declare their unbelief in such dogmas, and proclaim universal salvation. The list of such incongruities could be indefinitely extended, anl since the claim is set up that each is founded upon divine authority, they are fruitful of infidelity. . As they can not all be true, it too often occurs that all are tabooed and as a consequence, unbelief takes possession of the mind and infidelity receives additions to its ranks. The triumphs of unbelief in .the past are monumental and take high rank among the choicest blessings advancirg civilization has conferred upon the world. It is said that "mankind are divided by nature into believers and unbelievers almost as distinctly as they are into males and females." Hence it is the propensity of some minds to doubt as it is of others to have faith. Admit the proposition, and a vast amount of the acrimony which exists in the world disappears. To disbelieve, to question, to investigate, is as certainly a constitutional trait as to believe and accept, with child-like confidence, whatever is asserted to be true or false. This constitutional trait is greatly applauded in all matters except religion. The moment the individual questions the truth of a religious dogma the Church assumes a lofty air of infallibility, and the inquirer is dubbed "infidel," "heretic." "skeptic," and stigmatized as the enemy of mankind. Such a course is neither just nor generous, and at once develops an implacable spirit which intensifies rather than modifies the determination to investigate. If it be admitted that investigation is proper at all, the conclusion is inevitable that it is nowhere more fruitful of good than in the domain of religion. Aud as it can be shown that many religious errors have fallen under the sturdy blows of skepticism, the world is disposed to be lenient in its judgments when unbelief is on trial.

A sweep of bis hand, taUag in the whole scene ou the beach, was his finish of the stnleuce. a hundred or more men and women, tlfld as for the ring, were postured on th j beach, as truly for exnib!tion s though they had not been noDcbalantly chatting, and aa many more were fnlic!iii:g in the water, turning somersaults into the Incdmng breakers, swimming and iloatlng, play'Dg tricks en each other, and ia various ways making the most rtmarkable entertainment ever tiven without money a d without price.

I nark that per cent, o! th inhabitants of Clasj row livd u houses with tot over two rooms, the statement was receive-! everywhere with incredulity. It whs not literally true, but yet it was near enough f the mark to cx it attention. The preI vailing styles ol houses in Glasg w are four stories . high, divided Into fne. two, three, four, or even a larger number of sui's. The population of the CitylalSSl was Ml 5 O, and of its suburbs lat.6M, making a total ef 705,140 which has since then Increased to not lesa than 720 0u0. But In 1381 there were 113 C59 houees la the city, of which 12,721 were not c:uptel. There were nearly 35.0OO houses of one room only, and upward of ."2.000 of only two rooms. The average number of rooms In inhabited houses was 2 3. and the average number of persons iaei h occupied houe was 4.7. T thirds of the people of Glasgow thus live iu houses of not over two rooms. Moreover, 4.2,07 UmUies wete found Ci tuili k no room each, while 4907 lived in two-rofim hou es. Itsside- thess, there are onlv some SOfOO families in Glasgow. And yet th t cinenMou end truthful historian, Conul Bret Hrt. ys trere is 1. w destitution, less absoltte deprivation, lets misery and want la Glsa gw thu iu aoy othet Ja gjtity of Great Britain. A Casaman immigration agent sendi home a disheartei.i g i icture of what he has seen in the North of Ireland. "I have traveled," be says, "on an 'outside car in the Northwest 170 miles, gad the coun ry for the most part is wild and barren in the extreme, and the poverty and wretchednes of ti e people far beyond anything that ran be conceived by Canadians." Thitis saying a good deal. The reil difficulty with N -teem Irelard bowevcr, Is not ordinary poverty, or even poor 3 Wellings, for the people are accustomed to both. It is the almost onstant recurrence of bhderop seasons that has i.ude the condition of tena t farmers and farm laborers pitiable la the extreme. The greater part of the tenants' savings must go for rent. But it is hardly possible f jr the crops to be always deficient and inferior. A f.iix dow before the British Parliament seeks to introduce some much-needed reforms In patent law. The chief complaint brought against existing pruvsi'.cs Is that the fees are too heavy to be borne by joor l.iventors. Next, it is very difficult to search the records of patents. A third consideratioc has much weight in England though It Is entirely ignored here, namely: that it Is often impossible to obtain from inventors on any reasonable terms the right to use th-ir inventions. The G dvernment bill accordingly limits the first payment to 20, but still n ekes a charge cf (253 at the beginning of tbo fourth year from the gra .ting of the paper, and tOCO at the opening of the seventh year. F.fforts have beea made to get thce fees redaced, but Mr Chamberlain replies that if a patent right is worth paying at all Its owner can afford to pay the existing charges at the end of three and six years. Endeavors have likewise been male, but unsuccessfully, to extend the term of pate its 'rom fourteen to seventeen ycirs. The new measure wiU afford distiuct relief to inventors at the outset, and it is by no means clear that Mr. Chamberlain's c pinion about subsequent payments is unsound. If the second and third payments are net forthcoming the patent expires. The public and Inventors thus ascertain In due course whether or no worthless patents are abandoned. Th3 Board of Trade is to have authority to compel inventors to grant licenses, and is to determine wLat remuneration shall t e made by the Crcwa for the inventions used b' H. Jeff Davis's Letter. Following is the complete text of the letter which JelTtrson Davis pent to the reunion of the survivors of John II. Morgan's rebel command. Bkai voir. narriKon County, Miss., July 10.
