Leitrim the Last County to be Snbdusd.
Leitrim was one of the last counties
in Ireland which the Anglo-Norman
invaders obtained a footing, and re
mained unsubdued for centuries.
The Battle of Sligeaoh.
This battle was fought between
Eoghan Bel, King of Connaught, and
the Clauna Jsiall, from Ulster, and the
Matter were victorious. Eoghan Bel
was mortally wounded and lived a few
days, during which time he gave direc
tions as to his buria! on the south *ide
of the Sligoach, in a standing posture,
to be a terror to his enemies and a pro
tection to his people. The Illstermen
afterwards losing some battles, it was
attributed to thetalismanic effect of the
King being buried in the standing posi
tion. They aftewards came with a
great army and they removed the body
and buried him with his face down
wards at Aenach Loch a, Gilla, or the
cemetery of Lough Gill.
The Bridge Across the Slaney,
Wexford Town is connected at its
northern end with the grounds on the
opposite bank of the Slaney by a bridge
which was opened in 1795. It was con
structed entirety of .American oak by
Emanuel Cox, an engineer from the
United States. Its length was 1,671
feet, it was reconstructed in 1832, and
now consists of two causeways project
ing from the opposite banks ot' the
river, and of the respective lengths of
CoO and iSS feet. The roadway of the
bridge over the intervening space of
7&? feet is of timber supported on 23
wooden piers with a drawbridge to per-

The Ma^uire "Family.
The Maguires were princes of Fer
managh from the middle of the 13th
century, when they supplanted the for
mer chiefs of that territory, the
OVDakuhims or Devines. The Ma
guires continued in power until the
reign of James II. of England, and pos
sessed the entire county of .Fermanagh,
which was known as the Maguires'
country. The sept rendered valuable
assistance to the O'Neills in their gal
lant efforts to expel the English in
vaders, and fought %vell at Clontibret,
Beal-an-atha-Buidhe, and Benbtirb.
The ilaguires were inaugurated as
Chiefs of Fermanagh on the summit of
Culleagh Mountain, near Swaulinbar,
on the borders of Cavan, and occasion
ally at Sciath Gabra or Lisruoseiatb,

The Rebellion of 1641.
Longford was in old times the prin
cipality of the 0'Farreli.s, who were
still recognized chieftains until the
•reign of Elizabeth, when it was made a
county by Lord Deputy Sidney, who
changed its name from Aunally to
Longford, and included it as one of the
seven counties of Connaught. The
OTarrell's took little notice of this
English interference, and despite the
presence of English garrisons in Long
ford and Oast•leforbes, still maintained
absolute control over the comity until
the rebellion of Hi-it, when they joined
the Confederates and captured both the
Euglish strongholds after short but se
vere battles. The ultimate success of
the Cromwellians was ruinous to the
O'Farrell's, who were deprived of their
lands, which were divided among
Cromwellian troopers, such of the for

Seizing Flour Dining the famine.
In reply to a query from Brian O'H..
a Waterford correspondent of the Irish
World, a Chicago gentleman writes to
that paper as follows 1 was living in
Carrick-on-Suir, County Tipperary, in
1846, when I witnessed the Food Rict
•referred to by your Waterford corres
pondent in the Irish World's issue of
the 5th inst. Infuriated by hunger, the
people on that occasion armed them
selves with hatchets, sledge hammers,
etc., broke into the corn stores of that
•town, and carried away all the sacks of
flour they could lay their hands on.
Two boats laden with the same material
were speedily relieyedof their contents.
I have a vivid recollection of seeing a
company of the 3d Buffs, together with
troop of Scots Greys appearing on the
scene, all under the command of Lieut.
Col. Dickson. Mr. Redmond was the
resident magistrate at that period, and
after reading the Riot Act gave the or
der to lojid. This manoeuvre being ac
complished the nexo thing in order was
to request the commanding officer to di
rect the soldiers to fire on the people.
This the Colonel peremptorily refused,
and in consequence the military, both
horse and foot, did little more than re
main as harmless spectators of these ex
citing movements. The humane and
gallant officer did not get into much
trouble for disobeying the civil author
ities on this occasion nothing more
than a mild rebuke of the Horse
Guards. In 1848 he retired from the
army and for many years represented
his native County, Limerick, in the
-London Parliament.

THE ALPINE REPUBLIC.
A Condensed History of the Straggle ar|
Final Triumph of a Brave People.
Bishop Cyrus D. Foss contributes an in.
tensely interesting article on the Swiss.
Republic to a recent- number of the Chau
tauqua,, in the course of which he i'e marks
The history of Switzerland is, perhaps, less
familiar to the avamge American student
than that of most European nations. Grad
ually brought into subjection of Rome.
Switzerland for many centuries remained
a province, known as Helvetia, and re
ceived to a considerable extent the laws,
customs and civilization of its conquerors.
Traces of the Roman dominion are left in
many names of places anil .in the Romanic
dialect still sp tk»n in some sections.
In the second, third and fourth centuries
the country was repeatedly invaded by thg
Germans, and the Roman element of the
population largely disappeared. .In the
sixth century the Franks incorporated
Switzerland with their kingdom, and the
Christian religion became prevalent. In
the ninth century, tinder the weak re gn
of Charles the Fat, the northern cantons
became part of the German Empire.
The crusades greatly lessened the powe*
of the Germau nobility, and so increased
the prosperity and influence of the Swiss
towns as to make the German yoke galling.
Three cantons, whose inhabitants are
boi.eved to ha -e descended from
Swedish immigrants and to have retained
always some measure of free loin, was
under control of a Count of Hapsburg.
This circumstance led to an attempt to in.
corporate the Swiss with Austria, and
thus precipitated the struggle which ended
in severing the connection of Switzerland
with Germany.
To this period of the struggle for inde
pendence belongs the legend of William
Tell. Failing to show th3 required rever
ence for Gessler, the Austrian bailiff in
the town of Kussiiueht. TelL was sentenced
to death: the only condition of release be
ing that he should shoot an apple from his
son's heal The shot was successful.
Gessicr demanded the purpose of a second
arrow in his quiver. Teil replied: "To
kill you if I had harmed my son." Again
he was taken into custody., and Gessler
embarked with him for Kussnacht. A
storm arose, an 1 Toll was set at liberty
that he might guide the boat. While:
rounding a dangerous point he sprang
ashore, eluded his pursuers, and succeeded
in inflicting a mortal wound upon Gessler.
A general uprising followed the Aus
trian bailiffs were driven from the several
cantons, and their castles demolished,
ttuch is the story as embodied by Schiller
ija his drama.
The traveler is shown the rock on the
shore of the lake of the Four Forest Can
tons whore- Tell leaped from Gassier's boat.
On the opposite side of the lake stands an
imposing rock inscribed to Schiller, the
"Bard of Teil." The whole region round
about is full of scenes of the exploits ot
th:s legendary hero of the Swiss.
One by one the cantons joined the league.
One of the original three (Schwytz) gava
a name to the people and to the country,
and its colors (red and white) became the
national ensign. At the peace of West
phalia, in 1648, the independence of Swit
zerland was formally recognized. Then
for the first time Germany- gave up all
claim upon her as a part of the Germau
Empire.
Until the outbreak of the French revolu
tion the peace of the country was undis
turbed save by occasional internal con
flicts, caused by religious differences and
by the olegarchie pretentions of the rulers
in some of the cantons.
In 179S Freuch armies, with reasonable
pretext, marched into Swiss territory and
attempted to force a new constitution upon
the country, providing for a closer union,
and greatly changing the number and di
vision of the cantons. Upon the withdrawal
of the French troops, in ISO:?, the country
arose in revolt and assembled a diet.
France again interfered, the uprising was
checked, and Bonaparte convoked a meet
ing of Swiss deputies at Paris to reorgan
ize the Government. A compromise con
stitution was submitted, under which the
country enjoyed ten years of peace. An
attempt on on the part of Bern and several
other cantons to secede gave rise to civil
broils, and led to the adoption, by the Fed
eral Diet, in 1S15, of the present constitu
tion.
Since then liberal cantonal reforms have
been introduced in about two-thirds of the
conn try.
The protracted conflicts in which Switz
erland was for a long time engaged inspired
the people with such a love of warfare
that many have served as mercenaries in
foreign armies, and have earned the ques
tionable reputation of being most valiant
defenders of whatever cause they have
espoused —whether that of oppressor or
oppressed.
The Lion of Lucerne, one of the most fa
mous aod impressive of monuments, was
carved by Tkorwaldseii in the side of a cliff
of rock iu memo
IT
of the Swiss Guard who
perished in defend"'g the palace of the
Tuilleries against a Paris mob during the
revolution of 1792. The colossal lion, with
a spear iu his side, and with the French
fleur-de-lis between his paws, is slowly sink
ing down into death—unflinching, brave
and faithful, but overpowered.
Switzerland is a republic without a Pres
ident. Its Government is vested in a Fed
eral Council, a National Co-uncil and a
Council of States. The first named is the
executive of the nation. It consists of
seven members chosen for a term of three
years by the National Council and the
Council of States in joint session. They
divide among themselves the seven Depart
ments of Foreign Affairs, of the Post and
Telegraphs, of Justice and Police, of Fi
nance, of War, of the Interior, and of Com
merce and Duties, each member taking
one department and being at the
same time
the substitute in a second department.
The Federal Assembly executes all Leg
islative functions. It is made up of two
houses—the National Council and the
Council of States. The National Council
consists of deputies of the people in the ra
tio of about one to every twenty thousand
persons, so that every canton and every
independent half canton has the right of
electing at least one councilor. The Na
tional Council is elected for three years,
and every citizen who is twenty years of
age has the right of voting, and any voter
not a clergyman is eligible. The Council
of States has forty-four members, two for
every canton and one for every half can
ton.
Paper Gas and Water Pipes*
According to the Gas and Water Review,
pipes made of paper have lately been ex
hibited at Vienna, such pipes being de
signed to take the place of the iron tubes
which convey gas and water beneath our
streets. They are rolled from sheets of
paper, like fire-works cases, and are coat
ed on the inner side with an enamel, the
composition of which is a secret. This pa
per is also charged with asphalt during the
rolling operation. It is claimed that these
pipes will resist an internal pressure of two
thousand pounds although the material is
only half an inch in thickness, many uses
will be found for them.

A CRITICAL OPERATION.
strange Case of Phosphorous Poisoning
in a New York City Hospital.
Charles Parkins, a young man, is a pa
tient in the Charity Hospital on Blackwell's
Island writes a New York Correspondent.
When he was first admitted to the hos
pital, a few months ago, his legs and body
were covered with strange-looking spots,
which in some places bad progressed into
an ulcerous formation. It had been sup»
posed by a physician, who had been treat
iug the case, that the disease was leprosy.
As this disease is never met with here,
reliance had to be placed upon the pub
lished description of tiie symptoms, and
there were many of the characteristics.
The diagnosis were believed to stand on a
fairly sound basis, as there was'no history
of a syphilitic complication. The patient
was put under treatment in an isolated
ward in the hospital and closely watched.
There was no change for the better, and
the effect of medicine of any kind was ag
gravating to the symptoms. The ulcers
and spots had been upon the body for
about two years. The mouth and neck of
the patient were greatly swollen, but the
real cause of this was not discovered at
first, as the condition was thought to be a
manifestation of the disease. There were
no teeth in the lower jaw. The patient
said that they got so loose that
it was no trouble to pull them out with his
fingers. A portion of the teeth on the
upper jaw were also out, but these had not
dropped out like the teeth on the lower
jaw. The patient's breath was so foul
that it made his own life a burden, and the
stomachs of his attendants were rarely in
good working order. The lower lip being
depressed, the symphists of the inferior
maxillary could be seen. It was entirely
necrosed and in a horrible condition.
Phosphorous, it is claimed, will cause
necrosis of the jaw-bone. This patient
worked for several years in a match fac
tory, and the first trouble that- he had with
his jaw was while there. His teeth had
uever been good, and the phosphorous had
an excellent chance to demonstrate what
itcouiddoin the way of necrosis. There
had never been any bodily sores until aft
er the trouble with the jaw began.
A careful examination showed that the
disease had involved the entire lower jaw
and extended to the right articulation.
There is only one remedy for necrosis, and
that is the extirpation of the bone. But
the system of the patient was in such a
condition that it made it a dangerous com
plication, and difficult to determine what
the effect of the operation would be.
However, as the patient was gradually
getting weaker, and the question of a
fatal termination was only a matter of
tirae, and short at that, if relief was not
given, it was decided to operate.
The patient was placed under the influ
ence of ether, in the large amphitheater of
the hospital, in the presence of a large
number of students and physicians. An
incision was made from the point of the
chin to the lower lip, the red portion not
being touched. From the point of the jaw
the incision was extended to the right,
alorig the under side of the bone to the
protuberance under the ear. A similar in
cision was made on the right side. Then
the cheeks on both, sides of the face were
dissected from the bone, and the loosened
flesh was turned up over the face. This
exposed the bone in all its hideousuess.
Forceps were applied to the bone at its
middle portion, and even under a light
pressure it crumbled. The odor given out
was almost unbearable. As the bone
would break away a new hold was taken,
until it had been removed up to the limit
of the incision. To get at all the diseased
bone the cheek had to be cut again, the
knife being run through the tissue in front
of the ear.
The right articulation was removed with
but little trouble, as it was badly affected.
The attachment of the bone at the left
articulation was firm. Several tendons
had to be cut, during which, proceeding the
maxillary artery was punctured. The
blood spurted into the. throat, and before
pressure could be put on the artery the
crimson fluid entered the trachea. The
patient was iu danger of suffoca
tion. The operating surgeon turned
the head of the p-itiant downward, forced
his hand into the throat, and absorbed the
blood with a sponge. It required a large
amount of stimulant, given hypodcrmical-.
ly, to bring the patient-to a condition where
it was deemed, safe to go on with the work.
As the muscular attachment was divided,
the tongue dropped back into the throat.
To prevent the closing of the glottis, a
threaded needle was run through the tip
of the tongue, and it was drawn out and
held by an assistant. The lacerated artery
haf%ng been tied, the tendou holding the
bone in position was severed, and by ro
tating the boae with forceps the articula
tion was broken and the bone removed.
All the tissue in the neighborhood of the
bone that hail been affected was cut away,
and the wound was thoroughly washed.
|-r Then began the delicate task of putting
b#ck the flap and fastening it in position.
A large acupressure pin was introduced
near the sub-maxillarv glands into the in
tegument by which the severed muscles
were pinned to the neck. The wound
was a frightful looking affair, and
was closed with interrupted sutures.
The union of the vermillion lip by
sutures was made with great skill, and it
is a very difficult-thing to do so as not to
draw the lip out of shape. The wound was
bandaged and the patient put to bed in
two hours after the other was given. Care
ful attention was given to the subsequent
dressing, and any sloughing that appeared
was immediately cut away. The pins were
removed in seven days, and the muscles
were joined almost as well as if they never
had been cut.
The wound healed slowly, and there was
a persistent flow of pus. At the end of a
month the flesh hung naturally from the
upper lip, and in such a manner as to give
the face a constant smile. The marked
feature of the case is that the spots and
ulcers on the body healed and passed away
as the wound in the mouth became better,
and at the end of three months there were
no marks on the body and only a few small
ulcers on the legs, that are gradually dimin
ishing and will soon disappear. The pa
tient's health is gooj. A cartilage is form
ing in the mouth in place of the jaw, and is
already quite firm, and the disfigurement
is so slight as not to be noticeable unless
the head is upturned and the scar on the
chin is shown.
The Canning of an Otter.
Tn the London Zoological Gardens there
was an otter that had a couple of young
ones. One day these young ones got into
the pond and were quite unable to climb up
its perpendicular sides. The mother ap
peared anxious to get them out, and made
several useless attempts to reach them
from the side of the pond. She then
plunged into the water, and, after playing
with one of them for a short time, she put
her head close to its ear, as if to make it
understand her intentions, and then sprang
out of the pond, while the young one clung
tightly by its teeth to her tail. And then,
having landed it, she forthwith rescued
the other in the same way.

A SAIR FRANCISCO man has rescued twen

and a tramp out of the water in one day.
A PENXSYJ/VANIA. coal miner found a
piece of sulphur one day recently, which
was the exact form of an ear of corn.
It was taken rom he center of a coal vein
under twenty feet cf rock. Singular for
mations are thus frequently found.
A i.tTTLE boy discovered a large piece of
rock upon a railroad track near Scott,- burg,
Kv., recently, and, after waiting patiently
six hours, succeeded in preventing a prob
able frightful accident to a train. The
grateful passengers presented him with a
well-filled purse.
THE daughter of a Western farmer be
coming enamored of a railroad hand in
tended to elope with hirn. The farmer
sought to prevent the runaway match, but
was overawed by the railroader and a big
revolver. The young couple made good
their escape and were married.
A YOUNG man was seriously injured not
long since, by a fall from a second-story
window while asleep. He dreamed that
the building was falling in on him: spring

taking the sash with him. He was found
wounded and bleeding upon the ground

IT is a custom in the back-woods regions
of the South, upon the celebration of a
wedding, to appoint a young man and a
young woman as "candle-holders." The
office of these is to remain through the first
night with the newly-wedded couple, in
their chamber, each with a lighted candle
in hand. It often happens that the '•can
dle-holders" themselves soon after enter
the matrimonial state.
LANTEKNS are the most common objects
in a Chinese town. There is an enormous
trade in them, owing to the fact that nearly
every Chinaman carries a lantern at night.
They are made of paper and silk stretched
upon bamboo and oiled or varnished. The
Chinese towns are unlighted save by an
occasional lantern hung before a joss-house
or shop. Upon these are written with red
paint the family name or titloi

stamping a sheet of foolscap. The treas

WHEN a Chinaman meets an acquaint
ance he squeezes his own hands and covers
his head. Great friends, upon meeting
after a protracted absence, shake hands
and rub shoulders until they become tired.
Instead of asking after each other's hearth,
they inquire: "Have you eaten your rice,
where are you going, and how much did
you pay for your shoes?"
AIT interesting account is given in a
Washington paper of the bravery of a so
ciety lady, who, upon one occasion, discov
ered a large and powerful negro under her
bed. She pulled him out and ejected him
from the house after a desperate struggle,
in which she captured a pistol from him.
The police secured hira and, in token of her
bravery, presented the lady with the pistol.
whose companion was a cat, dem­
onstrated in the following manner a true
friendship: Their master, deciding to rid
himself of the cat, tied a stone about her
neck and threw her into the river. The
dog rescued her and returned her in tri
umph to the house. The unrelenting
master again threw the cat into the river,
and again the dog plunged in after her and
bore her safely out but deposited her upon
the further shore.
A STOBT is told in a Western paper of a
remarkable trophy in the possession of a
Georgian hunting party. A large deer was
captured upon whose antlers was found
impaled the whitened skull of a human
being. In all probability some hunter, in
a struggle with the animal, had been
struck by the horns, which, penetrating
the skull, had become fixed and immovable
and was thus dragged about until nothing
remained but the skull.
