The Irish Evictions.

Demonstration At Bodyke,

WfM Limerick correspondent of the •'TtaeS " writes :—ln view of the impend ing evictions on tho estate of Colonel jjj'CafinghaPj of Maryport, an indignation nibetirtg, largely attended, was hold On Sunday at Bodyke to protest against the ■ a ttion of tho landlord. Mr William O'Brien was received with „ rCB t cheering.. He Said ho had come liere to try whether they could avert an eviction campaign—that Would cry to Heaven for vengeanno if it took place - until the people's houses were safe and .the i j, u (]i a ,i arrrt of this man o'Calla.ghan stricken down. Colonel O'Callaghan, he was told, intended to make Bodyke a battlefield ncit Wednesday ; he was determined to 'enact the horrors of Glenbeigh there in the midst of the people whom he had impover . isheil ! nncl crushed with his ruck'retits. He was gathering his myrmidons, requisition 'jjiifiTie redcoat* to come to the assistance o f"the devoted friends of the Irish people; j] lß i)Olice. The people in Bodyke had the '(epttto'Moiij of being formidable customers ■fa tachte,"and tho authorities wore afi'uid t ], e y would not stand by qtiito bo tainoly luslheaieh of Glenbeigh while their houses -^(rt being burnt and their children driven out under a winter's sky. The tbfero wer e flesh and blood, and not worms (chart)- They had the fe.elings of men 'tiid: fathers when their houses wero tev'efa), and he told them candidly thero tint day that, though they"alldwed those pdlicemen to withdraw quietly from tho ueeting because thoy wore weak, mercy ff3S seldom or never reciprocated by jlij; police to the people. Ho told tliein there that day —he did nob cure whether there Was a Government r6 jinrtfiv or not listening to him—he told tlietu candidly if the Irish people had the -oM'cr W meet the policeman—man to man joi) cilleto rifle-in the open field he for one would cut short his speeehmaUing that very .moment, and the next speech the JMtroyers of tho people's houses would hear would bo a speech out of the mouths of the people's guns (loud cheers). They couldl nut/meet them likothat, hut forunfor tnnalelythey hail not tho power, but thoy had a weapon which was bringing down tlifi |jowor and pride of landlordism (a voice : •'tlie I'l.in of Campiign "). Men like Mr Co&'hcn and Mr Chamberlain had the audacity to talk to the Irish people of dishonesty. That, was because the tenantry objected to bcingutterly plundered unit bled by worthless idlers, and to this 'fruitful land being turned into one vast, (ilenbeigli, one vast scene of misery, poverty and desolation. Ho would like to iisFMFGdsclien and Sir. George Trcvolyiin, after hearing the facts, what thoy thought, of Colonel Q'Callaghan's cruelty and dis honesty,. On tho records of tho Land Cum mission lie was branded as one of the most atrocious thieves that evor preyed on the .'earnings'-of honest people. The Govern ment .valuation of tho estate was between fSOOan'l'l'UOO, and so the landlord with Ills increased rents had been rubbing tho tenants—his unfortunate serfs -uf A'Boo riW.annum for years and years/ and now h! proposed to rob them of the roofs orer their, heads. If thiß question of, the extermination of the tenantry of Ireland was to, bo fought this winter, better, ho would nay. that, it should be fought afa once snd for all there at Uutfyke. Better thoy told declare then and there that the Irish people were nob going to submit to Kiitenceof death through (Colonel O'Callag hin'j'nor to the sentence of transportation motioned the other night in tho House of Cttnmcm* by Sir Michael Beach. Then rtald the question bo raised before Eng land arid the World whether the Irish !jfAnle were-'i.u bfr-treated like human being's, wllke'WWdtests in their own'land. The Lord Mayor of' Dublin said that so far as his own judgment went, he thought tho'• people of Bodyko were justified in offering every resistance they possibly cnuld, to damnable evictions. He did nobask-.thom to throw themselves on the bayonets of tho forces to be brought thither,'bitb thoy should let it be seen and known that they revolted against! this cruel Injustice. ; Beyerol priests also addressed the meet jng, and ab-Vho close Mr -O'Brien said that ifCoiorjej evicted 'ho tenants they wonM bo maintained and supported oy.'fclio. National League as long us there .was a shot in the locker. During'the week it was announced that the Bodyke evictions have been, postponed. ' tfafe Plan oi Campaign. In expectation, of the Nationalist meeting announced to be held at Loughrea on Thurs day, over a hundred polico wero drafted into the town. The arrangements between hnrd Ihinsundle and his tenants have heen Completed. The terms have not transpired, but ft js understood that a reduction ot 15 percent;, will be reinstated on payment of »small portion of bhe arrears. l/irrl Muskerry's tenants have accepted the offer nf 15 per cent, reduction. In the debate on the Address, Mr Ciilly, "'•j*., One of the five Irish members who We being prosecuted for having advocated »'!' l promoted the I'lan of Campaign, asked PQnniß>ii6n to Oxpliiiti and defend bis con. jiection with the agrarian movement in Ire bml within tho hist three or four months.

Badgering A MlMonnlre. It is related by Baron Nathan do Roths, child that on one occasion ho gave a lady tho following pithy piece of advice. Seated at the (liiiner-tablo, she Informed him that she had an only non, whom she was anxious to see placed well in business, and bogged him to give her a hint on the subject. For a Jong time the baton hesitated, and nt length, when urged hy the Iqdy, half.good? nuburedly and half worried he ' turned round and said :-" Well, madam, I will tell you. Selling luetfcr matches Is a very good business if you have plenty of it." RothsclilWe Maxima Tho first English Rothschild camo to Engi land with £2,000, which lie soon turned into £60,000. "My success," he said to Sir Thomas Pouoll.Buxton, "all turned on one maxim. I said : I can do what another man can. Anothor advantage. 1 had was ah oft-hand manner. 1 mndo a bargain at. onCo.

In JH7S a sensational paragraph appeared in most, of the dally papers announcing tho death of "an old Mr Attwood," who was declared to have been a bachelor, and " the giver of all (the anonymous £1,000 cheques." It was further «tatod that he had given nway x*omU,ooO in this way—£4s,ooo within the limb year: that he had diod intestate, leaving a fortune of more than £1,U00,000, and that a £1,000 note Was found lying in his room us If it had been waste paper. ' Tho Ruling Passion. Daniel Dancer lived on tho weald of Harrow, where he had a little estate of about 70 acres of rich meadow land, with Rome of tho finest oak timber in the king dom on it. Beside, there was a good farm belonging to him worth at thab time, if properly cultivated, more . than . £200 a year. One day, coming to London to invest £2,000 in the funds, a gentleman who met him nenr, the Exchange, mistak ing him for a beggar, put a penny in his hand an affront which it is needless to: say that the beggar pocketed. In spite of the fact that, his wretched abode was often broken into, he mado a great deal of money by his penurious habits. It took many weeks to explore thecontentsof hisdvvelling. •As much a«C£2,t>oU weyxjound in tho dung heap in thtipowliouse; dnd'ihan'old'iacftot, carefully tied arid strongly nailed to the mnnger, was the sum of £500 in gold and bank notes! £20Q.~ were found in the Ohitnney, and an old teapot Contained bank notes to the value of £500.

Both greyhounds were highly fancied, in fact, started favourites, bar, of course, Miss Glendyne, About the latter bitoh the absurd price of 3 to \ was taken on the night, of the draw.' She ran through the first two rounds brilliantly, and might have proved vidrix a_ third year, In' succession bub for ffteeting with an acci; dentin her tussle with Hermos. Mr Hib bert promptly sent for Hutton, the bone sotter, hub bhe latter could nob get to Liver pool in time, and Evan Thomas, the local man, pronounced Miss Glendyne gufferinor from a sprain. ' Hardly, however, had Mr Hibbert reluctantly withdrawn \\s famous bitch from" tho con tisst.than Hutton ap peared on the scene, and after a lnomont-s manipulation set her clown perfectly well. A toe/had got put of jbinb, that' vns all, This was aggravafaingt and as a stroke of bad luck seldom conies alone it naturally' followed that, the kennel's second string.the Kempton winner (Hnic Hulloa), should be piik out in the forirth round after an undecided.

SEEMING INTOXICATION.

Effects or Parents' Dlsnipated Habits Upon ttbei* Children. Lv h6 elaes of people does heredity do a more disastrous Work than in the descend ants of drinkers, whether excessive or moderate. A morbid appetite for liquor in such cases, with tho disadvantage of an inherited nerve degeneration, may manifest itself In many terrible forms. Among those many forms arc tho ordinary symptoms of intoxication in a person "perfectly tem perate. . Dr. Crothors, of Hartford, Conn., pre sents many such cases in a paper read lie* foro the American Association for tho Cure of Inebriates, and published in tho " Alien ist and Ngurologißb." TIK) first cases that attracted his atten tion were two boy 9, sons of drunkards, hi tho Hartford Deaf and Dumb Asylum, who had shown clear signs of intoxication from their birth. Ho was afterward surprised to rind mlbh'CAso* not uncommon. In -soma persons the symptoms are present all tho time, cither appearing at birth or 6lowly developing with the growth of tho child. Most uf-.such.cases show other marked i.ndi cations of physical degeneration —as imbecility, or bodily deformity. In the second clow of oases, almost any excitement is sufficient bo bring on an attack. This Class may include persons of averago intellect, arid oven (if genius. In them the neurotic (nerve) degeneration may, ataluterdate, end in imbecility orinsanity. A farmer, fifty-iourycarsolrl, a man of wealth and character, whoao tuthor waa a drunkard, bub who himself never ufied any kind of spirits, showed symptoms of intoxica tion nfter meeting with an accident from a runaway horse. At the funeral of a child sdme months later his family wer« greatly mortified at his silly language, staggering gait and other marked symptoms of intoxi cation. A year later a aimilnr attack fol lowed the burning of fcohio buildings on his farm. There are similar cases in which the nerve degeneration is due to no heredity, but to early habits of Intoxication, A noted temperance lecturer, a total abstainer for ten years or more, received, while locturing, a despatch announcing tho fatal illness of his daughter. Ho drank a glass of water, became confused, Staggered, and Was led from th 6 stage laughing and shouting in a maudlin way. Ho had drunk no spirits, bn» 'lie audience supposed him intoxi c; ted.

Some Costly Shipwrecks.

In tho early days of extraordinary long voyngos, clumsy ships, and of /i navigation rendered nob a little insecure by the blunders or the conjectures of the ohnrt niakpra, we should expect to meet with a great number of costly disasters, the more .particularly sinco it was tho custom to commit to a single hold tho treasure that would hi this day be distributed among eight or ten great and powerful steamers. Vet this sort of ehipwreok ia not nearly to trequent occurring; in marine annals as: one would suppose. When it happens it; takes an historical signifiance much morel profound than that which attaches to loss; oflife. ;• The rncmory.,of; I .th©.los& of £200,000; of silver and gold will survivo tho drown ! ing of 1,000 souls in a coup. Tbo Muse of History has much in her of tho philosophy; of r,he cynic who declared that, a man will forget his wife, his children, yea, and his country ; but he will uevor forget the per son who borrowed £f> from him and forgot to rcpuy it. There Mras a Lutine, for in .stance. When some tmio ago t.hero Was talk of a proposal to recover' tbo ,iupney that iy_ent. down in befr,. everybody, >b'mendMf.' or; other, ijeemed to: remember. tho ldss of Huch n. ship, though it happened above eighty year? ago< But ■suppose it had'-been thoßucUinghamshirn or bho Windsor Castle? Yefc, as a costly, shipwreck, La Lubitto deserve* a reference. Sho was of thirty-two gang, commanded by Captain Skynner, and fihe wont) a.shore on the bank pf the Fly Island Passage on the night of October 0, 1799., At first she Was reputed to have had six hundred thousand pounds sterling tn specie on board. Tliis was afterwards contradicted by a statement that " the return from the Bullion Office jnukea tho whole Amount about. £140,000 sterling." "It," I find in a contemporary account, " th© wreck of the unforrunuto Liitino should be dk covered, there may be reason to hope for the recovery of tie bullion on board of her. In the reign of .Tanles 11. some English adventurer* fitted out a vessel to search for and weigh up the cargo of o rich SpanUh ship which had been lost on the coast of South America, They succeeded ami brought iwuiO £300,000, which had been forty-four yearn at the bottom of the sea. Captain Fhipp3, who commanded, had -£20,000 for his share, and the Dnko of AlbemartofftO.ooo. A medal was struck in honour of this event In 1687." There was a very costly wreck in 1767. She was a Dutch East lndiamttn, and foundered in a storm <vUliin threo leagues of tneTexel, taking down all hands bpfc six and £.700,000. fiufc" it was not necessary that a vessel should havo ho much A3 an ounce of precious metal in her to bo a rich ship. One of the costliest cargoes ever, cfirr,ieji was found in 1764 in the galleon Santisslma Trindade, for she had on board the vast collection of curiosities formed by Governor Pigob and shipped ub Nla.dr.aa, consUttngof wild beasts, nerponts, and Bo forth. There was great lots in 1773. The Dons again ? You wonld say that the prico of four such Armadas as that of 1588 went down in tho hint Century ttfoniJ to the shapo of gold, silver, and plate. She.was the .intiual rfcg.istorsltlp, as the term 'then was, and Tnitl' in her 500,000 piastres and !QQ,«OQ ounces of gold orf account of the Itftig, and twice tluibsum on the merchants' account, making her n very rich ship. She foundered during the pass age, and no man escaped to tell how and when. In the name year the Dutch lost tho Antonietta, fin Indiaman ( and jWith her sank £700.000 sterling, bosidpe jowuU of great value. '. . In 1871, a Scotchman, named Johnston, patented a treasure safe for ships,. His proposal was that the safe should be sus pended «jb the fihip's davits, ready at an instant's notice to oe lowered into the sea. He contrived that tho safa should detach iteeU in the event of n sudden calamifcyi and float off, to be picked up by some passing ship, .or ashore. The idea was "ingenious ; but it is not every captain, j suspect, who would relish the thought of an unsinkable chest full of gold and jewels hanging afc his- davits ready to the hand o? the first daring Jack who should depend upon a black nights and; the. na vi'tr a blo qualities of the chest to come safely off with * tew hundreds, of thou sands of pouncJs. Yet what pickings the deep would .have offered ~ would still offer —, if the money and jewels carried" by ship* were stowed in coritri" vances which floated after the vessel was gone! The mind is oppressed by the splendid possibilities .tho fancy suggests. Here we have something beyond Qreams of avarice. Whero. might pot .such chests be sought with large promise of dazsrfing discovery? Tho,ocean is a miser. Like somei old woman found dead of starva tion, with guineas and bank-notes stitched a\?ay in her rags, ib the sea in her beggarly' art of concealing treasure among .the aauftlid u-eedinees of her shores. ■«' Spm© time ag'o,"^ays an pW report, " on the arrival of the Two Sisters, Captain O'Neil, of Bristol, at Dominica, a chest containing upwards of £4,000 In Portugal sold fell Overbold m they were ratting,lt fi fbooisrorid waß.lost in ton< fathom* of diving-boll in ihoeo tImUS, ftnd the mondy

lies at this.hour where it sank, only deeper, perhaps, and very much out ot sight. How such a disaster would be dealt with in these times may be known by reference .to the comparatively recent recovery of some hundred thousand pounds oft" the Grand Canary from the hold of a steamer sunk, if my memory is correct, in about thirty fathoms of water.—" Daily Tele graph." :■■■■ ■■
