It has never paid any profit to the State for the money in vested, and if any body will give any thing for it, it had better be sold.

By Cable to the New York Herald. Dublin, Feb. 3, 1880. The daily, hourly cry of distress . in Ireland be comes more and. more urgent and wide spread. Every dav reveals new horrors in the catalogue of suffering. The out look for the coming months is gloomier than any prediction has yet painted. No language can describe the appalling privations, the utter destitution which prevail, but a vivid picture can be found in the statement and figures be low. They are unexaggerated and well authenticated. IN THE CAUSE OF HUMANITY. The land agitation has hidden its head for the moment, the agitators lending a hand in the common cause. Parnell's attack upon the Mansion House and the Duchess of Marlborough funds is a crime the responsibility TjTl wnich no man should take upon him self at this time. The confusion thus caused only blinds the eyes of America to the present awful necessities of the Irish peasantry. If Parnell be a true Irish patriot he will sink animosities which every one here deprecates, even his friends and sympathizers, and will become the champion in America of that cause in which all the"world is one the cause of charity. ' .THE STATISTICS OF THE ACTUAL DIS TRESS. The following figures are compiled from the official returns of the local committees to the central bodies organ ized for the distribution of relief in Dublin, as well as from private -inquiries made by your correspondent. They are vouched for by Protestant and Catholic clergy, gentry and public officials. Further returns are arriving daily in overwhelming numbers. The returns by counties where the chief distress exists show the numbers of those suffering to be as follows: RETURNS BY COUNTIES Mayo, G4,o09 Gal way,... 43,200 Sligo, 42,930 Kerry 33,100 Donegal, 28,000 Roscommon, 26,150 Cork, 23,896 Clare, 19,360 Limerick, 7,600 Tipperary,. 6,300 Leitrim 5,800 Wicklow 3.600 Monaghan, 2,300 Westmeath, 1,900 Longford, 1,875 Kilkenny, 1,790 Total 312,370 American Agricutural Association. Special to the Baltimore Sun. Washington, Feb. 2. The following memorial or ivir. jonn JVlerryman was referred to the Senate committee on ag- riculture: "To the Honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States: "The undersigned respectfully repre sents that upon the llth day of Decem ber last, a convention of agricultur ists met in the city of New York. There were representatives from twenty-three States and the District of Co lumbia present, viz: the six New Eng land States, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Arkansas, Texas, Alabama, Georgia, North Caro lina, Virginia, Delaware and Maryland. "An association was formed under the name of 'The American Agricul tural Association," and officers elected. The constitution adopted proposes to protect, promote and develop the agri culture of the whole country in all its branches, and the interests of those en gaged therein and closely connected therewith, and that the means em ployed shall be the association, organi zation and co-operation of its mem bers; periodical and migratory meet ings for deliberation, discussion and business; correspondence and publica tions, and such other as may be proper and expedient to the end desired, in cluding exhibitions. And to more ef fectually carry out its purposes, a com mittee was appointed to memorialize your honorable bodies to grant a char ter to said American Agricultural As sociation ; and I most respectfully re quest that the matter be referred to such committees as your wisdom may deem proper for future action. And your petitioner will ever pray, &c. "John Merryman, "President and Chairman of Com. "Hayfields, Baltimore county, Mary land, Jan. 15, 1880." The committee, having considered the memorial, has agreed upon a bill in accordance therewith. The bill incorporates-the "American Agricultural Association;" provides that the value of its property shall not exceed $250, 000; that the annual meeting of the so ciety shall be held in" Washington, on the second Wednesday of Januarv; that the secretary of the society shall keep his business office in this city, and that the society shall have power to hold agricultural fairs, exhibitions and meetings, to offer premiums, issue cer tificate?, medals, diplomas or other marks of merit, and to publish and distribute the proceedings of said society, or oth er matter pertaining to agriculture. A Six-Million Dollar Suit. Baltimore American, January 30th. It is estimated on good authority that suit will soon be entered for about $6,000,000 worth of property situated upon Fell's Point. From what can be learned, the property in question was "squatted" upon by Edward, the hus band of Ann Fell, and from her passed through various hands until the present time, it is said that Judge Morris, in a recent case in the Court of Appeals, decided that Ann Fell never had a clear title to the property (about 600 acres), and that the father and grand father of the. present judge had also given the same opinions. It also ap pears that Lady Lucine Germon, the grandmother of Mrs. Jane Germon, ot this city (the actress), who was a refu gee from San Domingo, held the prop erty as a grant from the British Gov ernment. This lady's will, said to be the sixth filed in Baltimore, is now in the hands of a prominent member of the bur of this city, and will, no doubt, have an important bearing in the suit According to the best information at hand, the family of Germon, which in cludes Mrs. Germon's family, Mr. Vin cent Germon, of Washington; avCol. Germon, of the English army, and others, together with the family of Col ters, of which Mr. Frank G. Colter, of Philadelphia, is the head, and wTho is also an actor, are the direct heirs to the property, numbering in all about .six teen persons. Communication has been opened with Mr. Colter by Dr. Germon, Mrs. Germon's son, in relation to this a new feature in the case, as it ap pears that the Germon family never knew until yesterday that the Lady Lucrne Germon was ever possessed of the property in question. The case as it now stands appears to be a most im portant one, OUR GREAT BARGAINS ARE IN STORE . FOR those who have delayed in making their Winter Clothing purchases.
