From Dublin we learn that since Carey's disclosures uiany Irish-Amer-iceus and farmers are leaving for America. Dwyer Gray, owner of the Freeman's Journal, when chairman of the municipal health committee.charg ed Carey with conspiracy. The first letter of condolence for Miss Burke, received after the murder of her brother, was from James Carey. At West Chester, Ohio, the other morning, Benjamin Ripley, laboriug under a fit of insanity, entered a room where bis cousin, Nathan Baer, waB sleeping, and drawing a penknife, cut his head almost completely from bis shoulders. Baer, the murdered man, was visiting Ripley. Baer's home is some place in Nebraska. Ripley was at once taken in charge, and it is said Is now crazy. 0(ir readers will remember that recent mention was made of a mail robbery at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and now we record the fact that Fleming B. Lewis was arrested last week charged with the crime. He was a hackman, and iu that way bad access to the mail sacks. He confessed the robbery aud returned $2,400 of the money $50, he had spent. Hereto fore he had borne a good reputation. A passenger train the other day bound west on the Grand Trunk line struck a broken rail one mile east of Flint, Michigan, ditching three cars.

Some people almost believe be was translated, as we have no history of bis death and burial. In this case the newspapers of the country have failed to perform their duty. The British Parliament convened last week. The Queen delivered her speech, which is a model of brevity.

The Grand Array couucil of admin istration met iu session at Lincoln on the 19th. They audited and have paid the expenses of the re-union and have money ahead. About three hundred were in attendance. On the 20th, after a lively contest, the next re-union was fixed to be held at Hastings, Neb. The Grand Army on the 21st elected the following officers : J. C. Bonnell, department commander; H. E. Pal mer, eeuior vice: C. II. Fitch, junior vice; B. Crabb, chaplain; John Stein, quartermaster; Brad Cook, adjutant general ; H. Hotcbkiss, aid de camp. The last big sensation in Baltimore, Md., is the Tact that a wealthy hus band leaves his wife who is tainted with negro blood ; be is about com mencing a suit for a divorce to annul the marriage contract. It appears that the wife had been iu the habit of spending large sums of her husband's money upou an old mulatto woman, her grandmother,-to keep her from divulgiug the secret of her uegro blooL and her husband, becoming lirftd of b.er spending so much money expostulated with her upon the ex penditure, but received up explana tion and thereupon the wjfo cut off the black-mail money and so ttyepl.d lady disclosed tbe secret, and by this means destroys .the happiness and home of her grand-child forever. It appears from the testimony of James Carey, the informer in tbe Dublin Phoenix Park murders of Cavendish aud Burke, that seven men participated in the tragedy, though the cutting was confined to two, and Carey identified the prisoners who were engaged. His testimony created a great sensation, and the silence in the court room at intervals was oppressive. Carey confessed that several plots had been laid to murder Forster, but he escaped each time through accident. Upo n Carey's testimony twenty-one of the accused were committed for trial. The funeral of Wagner at Bayreuth was opened by the band playing a funeral march from Siegfried. Herr Muncker delivered a brief address at the conclusion of whichhe laid on the bier a wreath presented by the town. Herr Fenstel spoke of tbe foreign Wagner associations. Amid tbe toll ing of tbe bells of the town, the pro cession started. The hearso was drawn by four horses, and was preceded by two carriages loaded with wreaths. Following the hearse came the clergy representative, King, many deputa tions, artists, and military and civil officers and a large crowd of people. At the desire of his widow the coffin was laid in the tomb with only a sim ple religious blessing. Passages from Wagner's opera were sung at the tomb. Wreaths were sent from most of the theatres and societies of Ger many and Austria, also London. An outbreak of fire the other day under the stairs of the school-house attached to the German Roman Cath olic Church, Fourth street, N. Y., was the cause of a terrible calamity. At tbe alarm of fire a tearful panic seized the instructors and scholars, aud a rush -was made for the hall aud stair, which were instantly crowded; the railing of the stairs broke and the mass of children was precipitated to the flour below, falling iu a packed mass, one on top of another, four to five deep. No less than sixteen chil dren were killed, and a number of others seriously injured, some of whom it is thought cannot live. The school is conducted by sisters of Notre Dame. The building is five stories high and has nine class-rooms, seveu for girls and two for boys. Over fifty children were precipitated to the floor by the giving way ofltre balluslers. The record of the state senato on the bill introduced in that body by the railroad committee is briefly as fol lows: The bill was passed, 27 to 3, and 3 absent. Brown, of Lancaster, explained that he thought the bill was the best that we could get, so voted yes. Butler explained that he had esti mated the amount of freight trans ported over the railroads and believed this bill would save the people $7,000, 000 or $8,000,000 a year. Conner and Kinkaid said they would hand iu explanations in writing. Sang explained that he believed the bill was unconstitutional and unjust, and therefore voted no. Shoenhcit explained that he voted for the bill on the same principle that Christ Avas crucified on. The Jews cried crucify him! The people are crying for a railroad bill, aud he voted for it for that reason. Peter Cooper's 92d birthday was celebrated on the 12th iust. It may serve to illustrate the advance of civ ilization to read what is said of him : When he was born New York had only 27,000 inhabitants. He remem bered Washington's funeral passing through New York and bearing his mother speak of a cheveux de frise erected at what is now Duane street to keep off the Indians. He was in Albany when Commodore Perry passed through, after his famous vic tory on Lake Erie in the war of 1812, and remembered the triumphal arches erected in his honor. Soon after ward he made the trip from Albany to New York on Robert Fulton's steamboat, tbe Clermmi', then the "wonder of the age." He had previ ously hed business relations with Ful ton, both being interested in ascheme of Mr. Cooper's devising to propel ferryboats between New York and Brooklyn by means of compressed air. I.Itc Stock Xotea. Horses should come through the winter in good flesh, and be in fine trim for tbe bard work of spring. Horses' feet need special care at this time of slush and mud. When the horses are brought in from work, they should be rubbed down, and the feet and legs thoroughly dried. If left covered with mud, the skin may soon become diseased, aud cracked heels or foot fever may result. Look well to the horses' feet. Any cow that is out of condition will need the best of care now. Warm bran slop, with a little ginger, is ex cellent. If the animal is poor and weak, there is danger of feeding large ly of rich food. Calves infested with vermin are known by their rough coats. A mixture of lard and sulphur rubbed aloug the back, with a dose of a tcaspoonful of sulphur and molasses once or twick a week, is effective. Ewes should have dry and clean pens and yards, with a plenty of good, wholesome food. If the wool is fall ing, a few ouuee dosea of equal parts of sulphur and cream of tartar will relieve the irritation of the skin. Early lambs may be pushed forward with fresh cow's milk, given warm, a quar ter of a pint to a meal. Do not run any risks iu over-feeding. Breeding sows should be separated from other pigs, and provided with warm, dry pens, bedded with leaves or straw. A rail fastened to the wall, eight inches from the floor, will pre vent the young pigs from being crush ed. It is well to feed tbe sow some raw linseed oil a few days before the pigs are born.
