SHAMROCKS FROM ERIN.
SENIEKOED TO DEATH.
The following nowerfuliy dramatic poem,
•which first appeared in the Nation of Feb.19,1876,
wili te mid with renewed zest at the present
tii/ie whea *o many "Sentences of Death" are.
beinir passed in Ireland. Its gifted Author, who
wrote uuder the name of "Brigid," died re
cently.- N. Y. Tablet.
Wivh tb sign of the cross on my forehead, as I
kneel on thia cowld dungeon floor,
As I knoei ut your foet, reverend father, with
uo one but God to the fore
With my heart opened out for your readin', an*
no hope or thought of release
From the death that at day-break to-morrow Is
Btarin' straight in thfc face,
it have touid you the faults of my boyhood—the
follies an' sins of my youth—
An' now of thiscrimeof my manhood I'll spake
with the same open truth.
You see, sir, the land was our people's for
ninety good years, an' tbeir toil
What tlrst was a bare bit of mountain brought
ii.to wood wheat bearin* soil:
'Twas their hands raised the walls of the cabin,
where our childer wor born an' bred,
Wfcfjre our weddln's andChristenin'a wor merry
where we waked and keeued over
our dead
We wor honest an' fair to the landlord—we
paid him' the vent to the day
An' it wasn't our fault if our hard sweat he
squandered an' wasted away
In the cards, an' the dice, an the racecourse,
an' often in deeper disgrace,
That no tongue could relate without bringia a
blush to un h'"""al"ace*
'flut the day come at last that they worked for
when the castles, the mansions, the lands
They honld bat in thrust for the people, to
their shame passed away from their hands.
An' our place, sir, too, wint to auction-by
many the acres were sought.
An' whit cared the sthrauger that purchased
-who made 'em the good soil he bought?
The old folks wor gone—thank God for it—
where throuble or care can't purshue,
Bnt the wife au' the childher—Oh Father in
Fleaveh!—what was I to do?
Still thoujrht ril go speak to the new man—
I'll tell him of rae an* of mine:
The thrille that I've put together I'll place in
his hand for a line—
The estate is worth six times his money, and
maybe his neart isn't cowld
5Jut the seou db ret,that bought"the thief 8 pen'
or th" as worse than the pauper that sowld
1 chased him to house an' to office, wherever I
thought, he'd be met.
2 offered him ALI, he'd put on it—but no, 'twas
the land he should get
I piayed as.men only to God pray—my prayer
was spurned and denied,
An' what mattered how just my poor right was
when he had the LAW on his side?
was young, an' but few Tears was married to
one with a voice like a bird—
When she e»ui£ the ould songs of our countbry,
every feelinvc 'ithin me was stirred,
Ob 1 I see her this mi unit before me, with a foot
wouldn't bend a eroueen,
Her
lausfhin'
An'
fi
lips lifted to kiss me—my darlin'
my brifrht-cyed lleen!
'Twas often with pride that I watched her, her
soft arms fouldin' our boy,
An' twas he brought the smile to her red lip
an' wakened the song of her joy.
Whist, father, have patience a minnit, let me
wipe the big -irons from my brow—
Whist, father, I'll thvy not to curse him but I
tell you.don't prache to me now.
Exciiin' myself Yes, I know it but the
story is now nearly done
An'father, your own breast is heavin' 1 8ee
the tears down trom vou run.
Well, he threatened—ho coaxed-he ejected
for wo tried to tiling to the place
That was mine—yes, far more than 'twas his,
sir 1 tould him so up to bis face
But the littfc 1 had melted from uiein makin'
the1 light, for my own,
An' a beggar, with three helpless childher, out
on the wide world I was thrown,
J'icen w.iul'i soon have another—another
that, neverdhrcw breath—
The neighbors wor good to us always—but
what conld they do again death?
For my wife an' her infant before me lay dead,
and by him they wor kilt.
As sure as I'm kneelin* before you, to own to
my share of the Kuilt,
I laughed all consoling to scorn, I didn't mind
inueh what I said,
With lleen a corpse in a barn, on a bundle of
sthraw for a bed
But ihtj blood in my veins boiled to madness
do they think that a man is a log
I thraokid him once more—'twas the last time
—and shot him that night like a dog.
Yes.Idid it shot him but,father,letthim
who make laws for the land
Look to it, whin they come to judgment, for
the blood that lies red on my hand.
If Idhrew the piece, 'twas ha primed it, that
left him sthiMtohed cowld oil the sol
An* from their bar, where I git my sentence, I
appeal to the bar of my God
For the Justice never get fr.un them, for the
right in their hands that's unknown.
Still, at lat. sir— I'd say it—I'm sorry I took the
law into my own
That I stole out th-.it nlyht in th3darkneS3,
whit* mad with grief an* despair,
And dhrew the- black sowl from his body, with
out giving him time for a prayer.
Well, 'tis tould sir you have the whole story
God orgi ve him an' me for our sins
My life uo wis in liu'—but, father, the young
ones, for them life begit.8
You'll look to poor Ileen's young orphans?
God hies* you. Aud now I'm at paice,
Ay' resigned to death that to-morrow is starin'
me sthraitfht in the face.
ANTRIM.
At a meeting of the Ulster Committee
of Liberal Unionists in Belfast, on No
vember 11, arrangements were made to
send delegates to the Liberal Unionists
Conference whieh was held in London
on December 7, under the presidency of
the Marquis of Harrington
Early on the morning of November
11 the house of Mr. Joseph Blair, farmer,
of Ballylumin, near Lough Neagh, was
destroyed by Are. Of the eleven in
mates three were burned to death, the
victims being Mrs. Martha Blair, aged
65 years, and her two grandchildren,
Margaret Jane Blair, aged 9, and Mar
tha Blair, aged 4. Several of the others
are suffering from severe burns.

A meeting of a verylarge nuinber of
sympathizers with jbhe family of Peter'
McCabe, Lislea, tod^ place a few miles
distant from the village of Stradone, oa
November 8, on the farm from which
he was evicted lSf months ago, and for
re-tftking possession of which he is now
in Dundalk jail. Speeches condemning
landlordism were made by several well
known Leaguers.
CORK.
Mrs. Dina Sullivan, Cork, has given
her tenants in the following townlands
a reduction of 25 per cent, in their May
rents—Froe, Guarancoe, Farena county,
Tulligee, Cloughgriffin, Kilbeg, and
Droumelleby.
DONEGAL.
On November 8, at the Petty Sessions
Court, Banbeg, near Gweedore, actions
were brought by Inspectors Sullivan and
Tweedy, against eight families for re
taking possession of houses out of
which they had been evicted, last
April, by Captain Hill. Formal evi
dence of evictions was given in two of
the cases by producing the decrees for
possession,, endorsed by the Under
Sheriff, and both were returned for
trial, bail being accepted. In the other
six cases an adjournment was granted
for a fortnight, to enabie Inspector
Tweedy to produce original decrees
from the Under Sheriff. The notable
feature in these proceedings is that they
are the outcome of the activity of the
constabulary, who have been acting^' as
bailiffs and Emergency men for Captain
Hill since the evictions. This duty for
the landlord party, as well as the collec
tion of dog taxes, seem to be the only
occupation that the constabulary have
got to engage them in this parish It is
remarkable in this district that once an
eviction takes place the whole charge is
given to the police, and neither care
taker, bailiff,r nor Emergency man is en
gaged by the landlord.
DOWN.
Two females named Massey and Hall
were recently before the magistrate at
Ballynahinch, charged with the murder
of William Hall. They were both dis
charged for want of sufficient evidence,
the magistrate remarking that if any
further evidence came up against them
they would be re-arrested.
DUBLIN.
Sir John Lentaigne, Inspector of In
dustrial Schools, died recently at his
residence in Dublin.
The "Rev. Dr. Keatinge," whose va
garies have been occupying a good deal
of public attention for the past few
weeks, was brought up again be
fore the magistrates on November 8
and returned for trial, on a charge of
receiving money under false pretences.
FERMANAGH.
In the neighborhood of Kesh, County
Fermanagh, during the celebration of
the Gunpowder Plot on November 5, a
serious revolver accideut occurred.
The brethren, it is stated, were taking
pot shots at an effigy said to be that of
the Pope, when an Orangeman named
Johnston by mistake lodged a revolver
bullet in the bodv of one of the party
named Whj te, whose injuries are of a
serious nature. Whyte was attended
three doctors, who have failed to ex
tract the bullet. Johnston is in cus
tody.
GAL WAY.
The work of organizing the enormous
estates of Lord Clanricarde,writes a cor
respondent of United Ireland, is pro
gressing steadily. The estate extends
for an immense tract throughout South
Galway, and the work of arranging for
thousands of tenan acting on a com
bined plan is necessarily a slow one.
The tenantry in the Woodford, Lough
rea, and Gort districts are now thor
oughly prepared to stand by the pro
gramme recently promulgated by Mr.
Dillon. The feeling in favor of com
bined resistance is beyond description
intense and uncompromising. Meet
ings will be held, and the work of or
ganization thoroughly completed.
KILKENNY.
The tenants of the Jenkinstown
property have refused the paltry offer
of 15 per cent, reduction. They left the
rent-office en masse without paying.
KERRY.
A. band of Moonlighters recently
raided the house of a farmer named
Gleeson, near Listowel. A servant
rushed upon the leaders, tore the masks
from their faces, and dared them to
kill her. They decamped after firing
several shots in the air.
On Nov. 6 last, Districc-Fnspector
Hickey, of Abbeyfeale. accompanied by
16 constables, proceeded to the house of
a farmer named Richard Cotter, of Kil
conlea, near Abbeyfeale, and made a
very minute search for armd. They
did not, however, find any.
At a special court held at Ca^tleis
land, on Nov. 12, before Mr. Considine,
R. )!., three men nam^d Leane, Mur
phy, and Sheehan, were charged with!
killing two head of cattle belonging to
the Land Corporation. There being no
evidence against Murphy he was dis
charged. Leane was sent for trial, and
the case against Sheehan was adjourned
for the production of further evidence.
On Nov. 10, the sheriffs bailiff's pro
ceeded to Aghadoe, on the Headley es
tate, and seized fourteen head of ex
cellent catile belonging to Mrs. Denis
O'Leary for one year's rent amounting
to~£H)8 and lodged them in the Kil
larney pound. In April last bailiffs
proceeded tb the same farm for the pur
pose of making a seizure of cattle, but
the latter had been driven off the lands
fifrp jt
at the time, and the bailiffs had to re
turn to Killarney without effecting
their object. g^Mrs. O Leary subse
quently proceeded to the Estate Office
of Mr. S. M. Hussey, the azent in Tra
lee, and was
allowed some indulgence to
meet the rent.
Early on the morning of Nov. 11, a
party of bailiffs aud police seized a
number of cattle for
non-payment
of
rent on the farm of Thomas Naughton,
of Ballyduhir, near Listowel. They
were driving away when a number of
men spraug from behind a ditch and
scattered the animals in all direction,
When the cattle had been driven be
yond reacn of the bailiffs the uarty at
lacked the latter aud the police, who
were ou a car and in the act of driving
on to Listowel for assistance. One of
the men cut the traces of the car, and
the whole of them fell on and beat both
bailiffs aud police. The latter returned
towards Listowel. Horus were blown
throughout the night in the neighbor
hood of the seizure for the purpose ot
summoning the countrymen together
to prevent the cattle from being taken,
aud tne next day Listowel was full ol
people who watched the movements ol
the bailiffs. The police were also rein
forced.
MAYO.
Eviction processes are being served
on 800 tenants on the Castlebar estates
of ^.ord Dillon.
A National League demonstration
was held at Castlebar on Sunday, Nov.
7. Mr. Deasy, Member of Parlia
ment, denounced evicting landlords
compared Miss Gardiner, theevictor,to
a woman possessed of a demon, who,
when she died, went to hell, but was
kicked out of it again. By obtaining a
Parliament in Dublin the release of the
Mayo political prisioners, and the disap
pearance of landlordism would be sure
to follow.
QUEEN'S COUNTY.
An inmate of the Mayborough Luna
tic Asylum, named Elizabeth Seale,
committed suicide by stiangulation
on November 7.
ROSCOMMON.
On the extensive estates of Lord
Kingston, in this county, the tenantry
have made up their minds to stand or
fall by the "Plan of Campaign" prom
ulgated by United Ireland, recently.
They held a great public demonstration
on Sunday, November 21,. at which Mr.
James O'Kelly, M. P., and Mr William
O Brien attended. After which, with
the active mpathy and assistance of
the Rev. Father Reddy, P. P.,measures
were immediately taken to collect the
rents into an Estate Fund.
TIPPERARY.
The clerical impostor, the"
Rev"
Jones
pleaded guilty at Thurles, on Nov. 6, to
a charge of obtaining 10a. from Mr. Mac
Beth, of the Bank of Ireland, Thurles
Branch. The Rev. Lucas Scott stated
that the prisoner obtained 7s. from him
on pretence that he required it to en
able him to return to his church in En
gland. Other similar evidence haying
been given, the prisoner was committed
for trial.
At the Tipperary Quarter Sessions
on Nov. 12, .an action was tried in which
the Tipperary Guardians sought to re
cover a penalty of £20 from Col. Bag
well Purefoy, a local landlord, for not
having served a notice on the relieving
officer of the eviction of a tenant of his
named Bradshaw. The defence wa.
that a notice had been served mention
ing the date and the towuland, but
through accident, Braashaw's name was
omitted, and the name of Patrick Ryan
another tenant, who was not evicted at
all was substituted. The Judge thought
the law had been sufficiently complied
with, and dismissed ttie action on the
merits.
TYRONE.
Mr. Gilbert McHugh, J. P., died at
his residence in Castlederg, on Sunday,
Nov. 7, after a brief illness.
There was a large attendance of mag
istrates and people at Finiona, on No
vember 7, the day for which the per
sonation cases were adjourned. The
only case tried was that of Mr. Josepl
Lynch, Nationalist, who was charged
with personating one Thomas Lynch'
aud also with perjury, which latter
charge was withdrawn by the Conser
vatives, as they failed altogether to
sustain it. After considerable bustle
on the part of the Conservatives, the
case, which believed to be without
foundation, was sent for trial to the
Petty Sessions. It is understood that
the Bench were almost equally divided
in their opinions. The remaining
cases were adjourned for a fortnight.

INDUSTRIOUS, JERRY.
A. Wfclte Lady'! Experience with
ored Carpet-Cleaner.
He had told me that he would be on
hand "bright an' airly," and even
hinted at the possibiity of his coming
by daylight.
"If you are here by hslf-past seven,
it will do," I said.
"Ha'-pas' sebeo, lady! Dat am
Dions'tous late fo' a man to begin a
day's wuk. l'se mo1 likely to beroun1
by ha-pas' six, lady."
Half-past seven came and went the
next day, and no Jerry. Eight o'clock,
and no Jerry. At half-past eight he
came leisurely sauntering into the
yard.
"How is this, Jerry?" I asked. "You
said ou would surely be here by half
past seven."
"So I did, lady, so I did an' how I
happened to obarsleep myse'f dis
mawnin' is de mos' 'mazin' circum
stance. Mos' gin'rally l'se up fo' day.
But I'll hab dat kyarpetup an out'n de
back ya'd less'n no time.
"It's so late, you'll have to hurry if
you get it all done to-day."
"Sho, lady! Hit's jess play fo1 me
to take up a kyarpet like dat, clean hit,
an' put hit down in free hours."
A little after nine I went into the
room. Jerry had taken the tacks out
on three sides of the carpet, and was
lying flat on his back staring at the
ceiling.
"I clar, lady," he said, "dat's de
puttiest wuk on dat ceilin' I eber saw!
l'se tryin' an' tryin' to make out if hit
am reely painted on dar, or if hit am
only papered on."
"You better let the ceiling alone,
and get this carpet out on the line right
away," I said, sharply.
"Don' yo' min' 'bout dis kyarpet,
lady. Hit'll be out o' hyar in free
shakes ob a dead sheep's tad," he said.
At ten o'clock I again went into the
room. Jerry had folded the carpet up
in the midcle of the room,' and was
sitting on it
"Takin' up kyarpets is kind o'
waxin' wuk," he said. "I mos' alius
has some one to help me."
"You don't need anv help in clean
inga little carpet like this," I said.
"La, no, lady! I could clean dis
kyarpet widone hand tied behind me."
It was eleven o'clock when Jerry
got the carpet on the line. Ten min
utes later he had disappeared. My
little boy found him two blocks away,
in a perfect ecstasy over a hand-organ
and a monkey.
"I 'clar, ma'am, dat am de smartest
monkey! Hit do beat all! Wunner if
hit makes much money?" he said,
when he came back.
He gave the carpet a few listless
strokes with an old broom-handle, and
then laid himself down on the grass
••cleantired out."
Ten minutes later 1 found him in
itiating my little boy into the mysteries
of "mumble-the-peg."
"Jerry!" I said, pointing majestical
ly to the carpet.
"Yes, lady, hit's all cleaned. I'll
put it down in ten minutes."
"It is not half cleaned," 1 said.
"You have not beaten one-tenth of the
dust out of it"
11 right, lady, all right," he said,
ominously. "Hit's yo' kyarpet, an' I
reckon yo' kin stan' de loss if I beats
hit to rags, l's pounded dat kyarpet
all hit'll stan', lady, but it's yo' kyar
pet."
But why write moreP At five o'clock
that carpet was still on the line, and
Jerry was leaning over the back fence
watching two boys playing at marbles
in the alley. At six o'clock he dragged
tlie carpet into the house, and wanted
his pay for that day, saying that he
would get a man to Help him, and **git
dat kyarpet down quicker'n wink the
next day."
I paid him for ha»f a day's work,
bade him good-bye forever, and put
the carpet down myself the next day.

Joking
Wonderfol Stampede Caused by
with a Powder-floiwe.
There was a fall of rock at one of
the tunnels on the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad, and our train was detained
at a flag-station for three or four hours.
The passengers strolled about to pass
the time away, and a dozen of us had
gone down the track half a mile to
wards the quarry when we came to a
rough-looking shanty erected about
two hundreu feet from the track, and
partly hidden by great rocks. There
was a small piece of red card-board in
iio-ht on the building, but if it had any
pnnting or writing on it we couldn
see from that distance. A passenger
pulled
his revolver and observed:
*I think I can chip that card, though
its a pretty long shot"
He fired and missed it Then a sec
ond pulled his revolver and fired and
hit the corner of the card. Then out
came seven or eight weapons and there
was a general blazing away for at least
ten minutes, when the card fell. We
bad jn»t put up our pistols when a
man came runningupfrom the quany,
waving his hat and yelling: "Stop!
stop!" When he reached us he was
out of breath and pale as a ghost
