It is but a few weeks since a well-known member or the Conservative -party spoke , publicly or Mr. Parnell as the most remark- able man he had ever met in the House of Commons; and remarkable, - indeed. he is, (rout whatever side we may choose-to view him. Of his strength of character and will it is hardly necessary to speak here; The unsnrpns-ed tenacity. with which hehal followed the izreat purpose of his life says- more on this point than any words can. He tound the Irish party a scattered and dive organized hand, without character, with- out principles, without cohesion, and he has made them one oi the most powerful political pariiesin Europe, placing in their hands the rate of ministers and en- abling them to dictate alike to Conservative and Liberal the policy of the empire. And what is perhaps more remarkable than any- thing else is the fact that he has made the party thus powerful as a whole, whilst ab- solutely dominating it by the force of his own superior intellect and will. To have created such a party, and to have given it the position which it now holds in Parlia- ment and before the country. must be count- ed among the most remarkable achieve- ments of modern statemanship. Yet re- markable as this achievement is, it sinks into lilbiguiiicllce when compared with his c.onqu_-st over Ireland. Without eloquence, an alien in religion, all but an alien in race, absolu ely devoid of the gift of humor which we associate with the Irish name, and en- dowed with a personality, the reserve and coldness of which have made it almost re- pellent, he has yet .. . ruruinv . mun --v- o.-...-.-- o...Aa.p .1 r--._._ FASCINATED THE IRISH PEOPLE as no other man of modern times has done, has climbed as high as O'Connell, and has accomplished more than O'Connell ever did. It is not, however, ot his remarkable strength of character and will that people think most of to-day, but of those singular points about him in which he resembles no other modern statesman. We have spoken of his reserve. What other popular leader has ever approached him in this quality! All the world knows that the relations be- tween himself and his followers have been so distant that it is ditlicult to understand how any feeling of personal oordiality can have entered into thent Everybody has heard THE STORY OF THE FREEZING REBUKE be administered to one of the most im- poriant of their number, when, on the 00 casion of the great Parnellite victory in 1885 which 1':-suited in the overthrow of Mi`. Gla(lstone`s Governnient, the unfortunate man forgot himself so far as to address Mr. Parnell in familiar terms. He was the Irish chief, and the name by which his colleagues in the House addressed him was Cl1ief,"-honoring him thus as only dukes are ll nomad in England. The mystery in which lie habitually wrapped himself was another oi the curious features of his character. His disappearances from the House and from the ken of his colleagues have long been notor- ions; and even it we make full allowance for the painful ligh t which has been thrown upon his habits in these last days, much of the mystery of these disappearances still remains. Perhaps at the bottom of the oonlne~s with which he remained away from Parliament in times of hot debate, and ot the exU`0.01'(1lD iry comp )Sll!`8 which be displayed when he entered the House at the critical moment of some great struggle bee ` tween the contending parties, was a real. and unaffected indifference. To the in- terests of Ireland he never indeed January 8, BIIOWED HIMSELF INDIFFERENT, but to the accidents of the hour, even` when those accldt.-nrs most closely affected himself anti the political combination of which he was the keystone, he showed an extraordin- ary insensibility. There are two other features oi. his character which histor- ians will note, and one of which they will note Wllil admiration. One is his curious Inagnnninnty. He has at times hit hard in the political struggles in which he has been engaged, but he has apparently never borne malice. Who has heard from him, since the exposures of the miserable plot which was launched against him through the columns of the Times, a single word of that luvectlve which, from the lips of ordin- ary men, would have been regarded not only as natural and justifiable, but as in- evitable? in the House of Commons, alike in his dealings with Tories and with Liberals, he had apparently been able to put absolute- ly on one side those feelings of resentment t|lrl\:I\L`f Innn whn I-mrl naanilmi him hihfnrlv [J UH UHU DIM`? uuuau a.uvuu,u vs avuuanvu-lvlcv against men who had assailed him bitterly and pursued him during years with relent- less hostility, which in any ordinary human being would have been looked upon as so entirely natural Whatever else may b said of Mr. Parnell, now that he has given the world the measure of his moral weak- ness, no fair-minded Jinn will deny to him the posscssou, in an almost unexampled de- groe, of thatquality of magnauimity which we justly rate so high. The other charac- wristic which must be remembered nowis his supreme indifference, in all that he had Vi said and done in his political Me, to English opinion. Whether this will be reckoned to him in the future, when his name takes its place on the page of history, as a virtue or a defeat, it is impossible for the men of to~ day to say. But those who now clamor against him because ot the open contempt with which he seems to regard REVIEWIN`GfPARNEIJ1 THE JUSTLY AROUSED WRATE of a majority of Englishmen, must remem- ber thut ihrough his political career he has found himself almost persistently under the shadow or English condemnation. It is but six years since any considerable section of the English pu hlic learned to look upon him as other th an a public enemy. a fee, if not of the human race, at all events of the Anglo- Suxon. 'l`he man who did not quail when he stood with a single untutored colleague 1 beside him, facing an enraged House of Commons, bitterly assailed and condemned ' by every English newspaper, etabooed in every English home, and regarded by these or whom in birth, in social qualities and intelligence .he was unquestionably the equal, as an outcast and a parish, can hardly be expected to show himself new I sensitive to the moral condemnation -to". which Englishmen have subjected hint as an ordinary -person would be. 0! the depth 0! this tell we do not speak here, Judgment has gone forth againstehim, and though no one can pretend that ithal been tempered by even a ehowyot n)ercy,.itie in-,3] possible to deny that lnysubstanoethat judge , ment is a righteous one.

"best man, is of-modern, origin. Nevertheless, it is of great antiquity, having been prac- ticed_ by th. earay Saxons. In thosedays marriages. were invariably celebrnteui at the house of the groom. The day precea. lug such an important event was spent in feasting and preparing for the ap- proaching cerernony, all `of the` bride- grooui s friends andgrelatives taking part in the festivities. _ Next came the gi-o.m s company, mounted on horseback and armed from head to foot. They proceeded in great state, in regular order of family pr;-ceJure, under the c nmmand of an individual cillel theforwistaman, or foremost man, to receive and conduct the bride in safety to the house of her future husband. T e blushing maiden was attended by her guar- dian and other male relatives, led by a stately matron, who bore the name of brideswoman," and followed by a goodly array of young dainsels, `who were known as bridesmaids. It `was from this cele- `mony, therefore, that we of the presmt day derived our custom of having at weddings a best man, the Saxon forum-sst man" of ten centuries ago being the prototyne of that almost indispensable "personage. F:-o.n the same` source also sprang these important female attendavits called hrid stnaid.-L". BURIED IN TWO PLACES. The true burial place of Columbus has been a mooted point for many years, and it would seem that the remains of that illus- trious discoverer rest in two places-Snn Domingo and Genoa. However, the truth of tnls statement has never been satisfac- torilyproven, but in the case of the noted Gen. Wayne, the hero of Stony Poiut-- Mad Anthony, as he was popularly term- , ed-there is not the slightest doubt that one portion of his body was interred at the place where he died and the other in his na- tive country. His original burial place was Fort Presque Isle, upon the site of which the City of Erie, Pa., now stands; the i other locality honored as his last resting ~ place is Radnor Cemetery, in Chester Co., Pa. This curious circumstance was brought about in the following manner: In the year | 1815 the family of this famous man was given permission to remove his dust to Reid- nor, but upon opening the grave it was found that the body was partly peiried, and consequently very heavy. A medics. friend of the family, recognizing the fact that it would be a_ very dililcult and costly task to transport the remains in that condi- L! ._ .1. 4..............A on for an nncnihln tn l'8ln0VQ OD.DS AND ENDS GATHEhED BY A STUDENT OF.

In England, down to the days of Good Queen Bess," it was the custom to hospita- bly entertain all strangers and visitors at any hour of the day with free tare-bread, beef and beer. This was observed at every table in the land, from that of the tree- hclder to the baron s and ahbey s._ At a later day the upper classes became more luxurious in their tastes and habits. As a consequence the hours _tor meals were very much modied and have remained so um ii, this day. Brealttast is now usually taken between 9 and 10 `a. m.. and the present usage for dinner among the wealthier classes is from 6 to 8 p. In. A luncheon-a rather substantial meal. by the way, consisting of ' cold game. roast beef and the like--is often indulged in between breakfast and dinner.
