SOCIAL WORLD. The restora ion of festivities after the Lenten season was the event of the week in social circles. The solemn fact was, however, that Lent had not been as clearly observed .-.:- it might by society, and hence while the throng of pleasure seekers was increased last week, there were many who could not see much difference between 1 • fore and after the supposed religious sus pension of gaiety.

This estimable young lady possesses musical talent of a high order nndis a vocalist of promise. It is to be. hoped her sweet, melodious voice will often be heard in public. At the same pleasing entertainment Mr. Nathan Ford was upon his native heath as "time-beater;" in fact his many friends are clearly of tbe opinion that he rather 'beats"old Father Time himself, which is a compliment this genial gentleman is wholly worthy of. The Easter services by the children at ■Christ church was oi 6 of the most charm ing and gratifying that church has ever enjoyed, and if such occasions could fre quently occur it would greatly add to the spiritual and social interest of the Sunday school. The carols rendered by the choii of boys and the choir of girls were spokem of with especial approbation. It is grati fying indeed to see young children so pro ficient in the divine art of song, and we hope that special attention will continue to be pa: A to the development of this choice gift.

The third annual reception and fancy dress parry of Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm's ju veniie dancing olasa came off at Sherman hall last ev?nin_-, ;:nd it can be said with out exaggeration that it was the most brilliant affair of the kind ever given in the city.

A large number of spec tators, principally parents of the members of the class were in attendance and mani fested a very lively interest in the bright and intere-tmg scene presented.

The combination of colors, as the fair aivd gallant wearers moved through the figures of the different dances was most charming, as was also the courtly dignity of the young gallants, and the winning grace with which their atten tions were received by their fair partner?. A Vni'im; Entrrtainmtut. Those who were fortunate enough to be at Plymouth chapel Friday evening wit nessed one of the most unique entertain ments of \\\e season. The costumeswwyeeye tine and as the different characters ap peared in their frr.mes in the art gallery the effect was far more like line old oil paintings than one could imagine. The pap«>r cos tumes worn by those mho composed the •"Wild Flower Garden" wore especially no ticeable, being made by the young ladies who wore them—daisy, rose, pansy, snn llower and poppy were represented. The ''Twins" created no end of fun. The num ber and variety of the characters waro a surprise to the visitors. Mrs. Bessie Strong Worthingtan as "Dolly Yarden" rendered some fine selections.

To the Editor of the Globe: St. Paul, March 30. —There is not an educated Irishman in Ireland or America who has a thought that the Emerald Isle can make any progress towards securing its rights as a province of Great Britain, from that government, by the use of ex plosives, destroying property and endang ering the lives of the innocent as well as those of the guilty, by the use of the knife or gun of the secret assassin, or by any other barbarous or violent measures, which only serve the British government as an excuse, and one which the civilized world will not interfere with, to rivet the chains of Ireland's oppression still tighter. The course taken by Parnell and other distinguished real friends of Ireland, both of her nativity and not of it, in fighting for the amelioration of the sufferings of the Irish people in parliament, and those seeking to release her from the unjust laws of landlords, and secure her impartial trial in the courts, has met with the universal sympa thy of the civilized world, and was sure in the end, with gathered impetus and adherents in the house of commons, to bring about a revolution in England's ob noxious method in governing that country. But the Phoenix park murder and the blowing up of the government buildings in London with dynamite, and the reign of terror threatened by the importation of deadly explosives into the cities of Eng land, are the acts of a mad and unreason able set of hot-heads on both sides of the ; Atlantis, who by these acts retard for years the liberation of Ireland from a shameful thraldom. If the intelligence of the Irish citizen ship of Ireland and America could hold the fort and suppress the wild spirit of folly of thosa wiio want to hoist the world with a petard in five minutes and to have their own personal hatreds thus gratified, the cause of suffering Ireiand would sooner be served, but as it has been in the past, and is in the present, the efforts of that nation's vK;-«r rainds to win her redemption from despotic rule, by stragetic aad diplomatic measures, have always been frustrated by the uncontrollable belligerent mistakes of their own race. The strong sympathies of that people as a people, their valor in the armies of the old world and in those of this repub lic, their wonderful generosity towards their suffering kinship, and their uncon querable love of their native land.give them the admiration of the civilized world, and it is one of the strangest of things strange, that their revolutionary spirits fail so sig nally to take guidance from those who among their own statesmen, church men and professional minds are always dis countenancing and condemning these viol ent and hair-brained measures,which, when undertaken, have always come to naught, and proved so disastrous in consequences to a true and good cause, only to be tri umphant by the exercise of sonnd judgment and common sense.

PAUL SU/'DAY GLOBE, SUNDAY MORNING, APRIL, 1, LS3a RAIDING REDSKINS. A C'oii*|>irit<-y Amonjjst Them—Our Troops Not Keeping l'ostetl—More Men Killed — Cit i/.eus Threaten to Take Vengeance in Their Own llumls. St. Louis, March 31. —A -correspondent of the Republican, writing from Globearis under date of the 30th inst., referring to the Indian troubles, says: Agent obstinately denies that any Apaches are on the reservation, but no statement of his, oilicial or otherwise, has any weight with the people, for his previous statements re garding the status at San Carlos prove false. It is demonstrated th.it the massa cres in progress in both terri tories are perpetrated by the White mountain Apaches from San Carlos, allied wifch pome of the Jmhs and Jerom mas Chiricahuas fresh from Mexico. The-a latter are the San Carlos Apaches who left the reservation Sept. 3(1, 1881, returned un molested to San Carlos liie following April and renewed their strength by the acces sion of Chief Locost's band and after kill ing the chief of police, Sterling, and an Indian scout, went on a graud raid through out the territory. After killing 143 people altogether, they returned to Mexico from which they have recently emerged again. Connection has been kept up during the winter between these Chiricahua chiefs in Mexico and their confreres in San Carlo.s and a thorough understanding exists between them. The feeling against Gen. Crook is outspoken and severe, because he has not made himself acquainted with these facts, and taken measures to prevent an outbreak or to meet the Indians who were known to be coming up from the south. FIFTY-NINE PEBSONB KILLED IS NINE DAIS' Tucson, Ariz., March 31.—The White mountain Indians are on the war path this morning. Unless something is accom plished, there is certain danger of an at tempt by an organized body of citizens from Clifton, Globe, Tombstone and the San Carlos reservation people, not waiting to give Crook an opportunity. Twenty seven were killed in nine days at Hermo sillo, Mexico; thirty-two persons killed in nine days by ho.stiles moving toward Ari zona through sparcely settled regions. THKEH MEN KILLED. Lobdsbueg, Cal., March 31.—A dispatch from Separ states that three men were killed between Separ and Animas valley this morning. The Indians came within one mile of Separ last night to an aban doned house. Capt. Black and his rangers are following the trail. A fight may be expected at any moment. The Indians are doubtless making for old Mexico, and fears are entertained they will reach there before the rangers can overtake them. COMING IN SHOUT OF TULL NUMBEBS. Tombstokk, A. T., The shortage of ra tions issued this week is less than usual and amounts to 7,000 pounds on count to day. Simmons, who does that work, said to Chief Skinny Tail, there is not one sixteenth of your band here, and I will not count you out all. Another chief was eight men short out of a small band. Mass meetings will be held throughout the country to take steps regarding the In dian question. TO SPAKE NO PBISONEBS. Tucson, A. T., March 31. —It is reported that Capt. Dougherty, who is scouting the country between Dragoon summit and Sulphur Springs valley, has had orders from Gen. Crook to take no Indians pris oners. J. H. Carroll, of Gila Valley, was surrounded by a large band of Indians north of Carlisle last night, but escaped into Richmond. San Francisco, March 31.—A gentleman from Arizona, cofirms the report that a r-ecr«t society exists among the whites in Arizona to exterminate the male Apaches on the San Carlos reservation, and all fonnd roving north of the frontier. The reservation is looked upon as a mere ref uge foi the Indians, where they retire MATINEE ! At MeLain's, commencing Monday, and lasting the entire week.

JUDOB M'COMAR' WIFE AND THKEE TBOS PECTOBS KILLED. Santa Fe, N. M., March 31.—The Shake | speare Guards, Capt. Elack, doing service i against the Indians, have made their ap pearance on the lower Gila. Black moved through the Skins pass, above the canon route, usually taken by the Indians return ing to Mexico. This together with the fact that regulars were moving oat on the railroad, caused the Indians to cross the plains into the Bun mountains. Black procured fresh horses and followed so closely that' the Indians were compelled to abandon their horses and plunder, and took to the mountains en the South Pacific road on foot. When last heard from Black was in hot pursuit. It will be difficult for moun tain troops to follow into tbe mountains. Tha movement mto New Mexico is not a raid, but an effort to get back into Mexico by the least dilficult ronte. P They killed Judge McComrts, wife and three prospectors yesterday hecause they happened to be in the route of escape. Black is reported to have fought to-day and lost several men, but it lacka confir mation. Thompson, with a body of the Fourth cavalry, is still in pursuit, and will follow the hostiles into Mexico. A recent treaty gives them the right. BECKUITS GOING Oil. St. Louis, Mo., March 31. —Eighty-seven recruits from the Fourth and Sixth caval ry, the former stationed at New Mexico, and the latter in Arizona, have been sent from Jefferson barracks.twelve miles south of this city, since the 22d inst., and sixty more for the First cavalry in California will be sent in a few days. DE LESSKPS. His Latest Umietimkimg iuAfriem, The indefatigable De Lesseps is starting on a new adventure. In a few days he will be in North America, on behalf of a private company, to look once more into the project of an inland sea in the desert of Sahara to the south of the French possessions. The project has baen often talked of, bnt it was thought to be decisive ly condemned when the government com mission reported the other day that it was not practicable. M. de Lesseps and his company were by no meaDs satisfied with this conclusion. They sent an agent of their own to make reports, and M. de Les eeps is now going to test this report for himself. There were nearly a hundred gray-beards, it appears, on the commis sion, and M. de Lesseps thinks there ware too many by half. They came to the con clusion that those parts adjacent to the sea through which it was proposed to cut the canal for flooding the low-lying region were rocky and hardly to be pierced. M. De Lesseps declares they are of sand. "They are yary much above the sea level," says the commission. '"They are nothing of the sort," says M. de Lesseps. His theory here, as at Suez, is that what has b-c-n may be again, and he ia strongly of the opinion that there was once an interior F«a or great salt water lako in this region. Tha eavants reported against that conclu sion; "if there had been, we should have found in th« present dry bed large depos its of salt, and wa find nothing of the sort." M. de Lesseps has no more respect for this opinion than for the others. '"You may have a salt sea without salt deposits where salt currents pass through what would otherwise be a fresh water lake, as in the Mediterranean and elsewhere." M. de Les seps professes to have had enough of sav ants and government committees; all that he wishes in this instance is to be let alone. He wants to hive the glory of putting his name to a third great engineering work of all time: but can he do it by merely steal ing a few days from his work at Suez and Panama T It is magaificent, but hnrdly engineering; at this rate he wilt find his Moscow one day: Qui trop cmbrassemal ctreint?
