SHERIDAN— A CABLE- GRAM SENT TO ENGLAND. ‘The citizens’ mass meeting at Masonic Hall last night entered a vigorous protest against the pas- sage of the Irish coercion bill by the British par- Mament. The Meeting was a complete success, Doth as to numbers present and the completeness of the denunciation, Prominent citizens, statesmen and priests Occupied places on the platform, and added the influence of their presence and their voices to Strengthen the protest. The attendance was large and a general spirit of enthusiasm Prevailed. Airs that awake the patriotic firein the Irish heart were played by the brass band in the balcony, and, though the meeting was not made up of Irishmen chtefiy, the music met with a Tesponse in the audience by the beating of time and applause, Popular airs from _ Scotian: Wales, freland, ant America “were played: present and a number’ of ladies who were joined inthe enthusiasm of the meeting. The rp and green feld of Ireland was with ‘the stars and stripes in decoration of the and appropriate mottoes were hung on the walls. The ‘hour fixed for the meeting was 7:30 o'clock, hut some time before that hour, and before any of-the Speakers had arrived, the hall was well filled. Gen, Rosecrans was the frst to step upon the plat: form, and he was greeted with applause. All thosé who came after him’ gota wart reception. Senator Van Wyck, Representative Springer, Rep- Tesentative Crain, Representative Shively, Gen, George A. Sheri fev. Father Chapellé and Rev. Father Donnelly were all received with en- thustasm.

Fox, of the National Republican; Richard H, Sylvester, of the Critic; Jas. Coleman, B.S. Davis, T. D. Daly and Col. A. H. Jackson. : CHAIRMAN SPRINGER. Mr. Springer, who was elected to preside over the meeting, Was the first tospeak. He wore in his buttonhole a white rose and a green spray, tied with a bright n ribbon, Many of those in the audience Wore bits of green ribbon, and some of the Jadies wore green in thetr hats. ‘The great 3] shes of the occasion were those of Senator Van vyck and Gen. Sheridan, both of which were re- celved with the wildest applause, All the other speakers were warmly received. Mr. Springer read trom the call of the meeting, compared the coercion of Ireland with the attempt to coerce America, over a hundred years before, and de- nounced the methods of ‘government pressed against Ireland by the tories, and praised ti patience and patriotism. GEN. ROSECRANS’ SPEECH. He then introduced Gen. Rosecrans, who sald that no more malignant or more diabolical laws than the coercion acts to be found in Blackstone, could be pointed out. He said that tyrannical force could never accomplish good and must fall of its power sooner or later. SENATOR VAN WYCK'S ADDRESS, When ex-Senator Van Wyck stepped forward with a little roll of manuscript in his hand he was received with great enthusiasm. He said: “How- ever the American people may differ uy many questions, they unanimously concur in the motto, “The Citizens of Scotland, Wales and Ireland De- mand Home Rule.’ (Applause.] Ir there 1s any- thing the people of Washington should respond feelingly to it is that of home rule {prolot ed ap- plause], and in your action o-night {t may be that you ate but casting your Dread upon the waters, and it may also be that when the prayer of that motto has beet 1 granted, ag it will be, that the re- flex tide may bring back to you What you so earn estly desire for Ireland.” He read a portion of the Declaration ot Independ- ence, and inade it cpeethe to the present case, and Said: “England tried the power of coercion in this country, Dut failed, She seems not to have ‘been satisfied, and wants to try on Ireland what ‘she failed to do in America.” He lauded the triotism of the Irish and Spoke of the debt this country owes Ireland, He characterized anarchy as a crime agalnst a republic, but sald that Rus- sian tyranny was the creator of Russtan anarchy. REPRESENTATIVE CRAIN read the resolutions, and while they were pending gave some reasons why it was right that such ex- pressions of sympathy should come from the capi- tal of the American nation. ‘That was due first on account of kinship, he said, for Irish Ulood coursed through the veins of one-fifth of the people of the United States, It was due, he said, on account of the heroism shown by Irishmen in the defense of tae American republic, and it was due, he claimed, principally on account of human- ity and the cominon love of liberty. “There are two remedies necessary for Ireland,” said Mr. Crain, “ang they are twin. sisters—home-rule and Ube ownership of the soil by Irish tenants, Home- rule js worthless to a man Who has no home.” Judge Goolrick, of Virginia, seconded the motion upon the resolutions. GEN. SHERIDAN’S REMARKS. Gen. Geo. A. Sheridan was the only man of Irish blood among the speakers. He sald he was proud and thankful that the father from whose loins he came was born in Ireland, and on that green isle he had courted the Irish maiden who was thd mother Who gave him birth. lie sald that no one here could imagine the poverty to which the Irish people had been reduced by English oppression. Hie said that while on a visit to the home of his parents he had been rowed over the lake of Kil- larney, by a young man twenty-two years of aga, a fine broad-shouidered man, 6 feet tall, with a fhe face, except that it looked hungry, and that when he'went to throw into the water Some of the leavings from his lunch, the young boatman cried out, “For God’s sake, man, don’t do that!” «f asked hima,” said General Sheridan, “what I should do with'it. ‘Why, give it to meé, sure,’ he Teplied. “And I gaveit whim. And didi't ne’ eat General Sheridan sald this man got 40 cents a day while at Work, and did not have work all tie while, Men and women -in ireland, he said, went barefooted, aud children ragged dnd destitute, “My friend who preceded me,” said he, “cold you that Kogiand regarded our interference as imper- tinent. ‘What i it was? That only adds zest to the affair.” Referring to the change of venue to England, he said that “in a country where coer- ‘clon Was a doctrine, it would be iinpossible to se- cure twelve men who would be the peers of an honest but unfortunate Irishman, You can’t find ‘them; they don’t exist.” He said he was glad to see 80 many people who Were not afraid to com- promise Uhis Goverament; it did a government: ae posstbility: good to be compromised once in a w!

When he spoke of the of an Irish contest with England he was greeted With vumultuous applause, which lasted tor some tne, ‘The policy of ‘Unis Government would not vongress passing jons in support of Ireland or ot. the United States sending armed troops to her assistance, but when the time came many an Irishman or the son of an Irishman, who had learned his lesson of Uberty on the battie- fields of this republic, on one side or the other, would be found in the fray. “and we will send them tons and tons—of what they will most need,” he added amid a wild shout of enthusiasm, REPRESENTATIVE SHIVELY denounced toryism and predicted that this was its last attempt upon the life of berty. “It will be,” he said, “as the last hiss of the reptile conspiracy against the dignity of popular government.” He said the “1 cannot change its spots nor the tory bis brutal instincts.” ‘stild this Was not a strugg! ween Eng- Ushmen and Irishmen, but between the workin; classes and the criminal classes, and prophesi: the destruction of the British empire—<t will Sink in the sea of oblivion that covers the barbar- ous governments of the past.” ‘THE RESOLUTIONS.

For the the past year there has been a Seventh- day Adventist Mission located at 1831 Vermont avenue, Elder W. H. Saxby and wife have it in charge anda number of others are employed dis- tributing reading matter and doing general mis- sionary work. As a denomination they believe They are fulAling prophecy and presenting @ message that is due at this time by agi- tating the minds of the people with the doctrines they hold. They believe that the personai, visible, second advent of the Saviour is at hand, and refer to about a dozen different lines of’ prophecy foretelling that event; but they are cureful to ‘state that they have no sympathy with time-set- Ung, and no connection with the adventists who havé and doset time. They are a different de- nomination, They are not in harmony with Mr. Baxter's interpretations and calculations, and think that “No man knoweth the day nor the hour* of Chnist’s comiug. They do not believe, however, that Christ may come any time, for they claim there is prophecy stil to be fulfilled; but ‘that we are living in the last generation they do firmly believe, and quote “When ye see these oe come to pass, know that it is here even at the as the Sabbath, in obedience, as they claim, to the fourth Commandment, and Hold that theré 1s no ‘scriptural authority for the observance of the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, but that the ancient seventh day which God gave to man in Eden, and commanded in the decalogue, should still be dbserved by all Christians. ‘Their work as a denomination began in Wash- ington, N. H., 42 years ago and has grown rapidly. AU present they have 28 organiz ed ‘State confer. ences, covering nearly all the States and Terri- tories in the Union.

Less than dozen persons, members of the Lincoln Monument Association and Lincotn Guard of Honor, were Present, For years the whereabouts of the re mains of the great President and his wife has been Vested in mystery from anxiety that they would be stolen to obtain a huge ransom for their return. ‘The actual attempt to carry off the bodies in 1878 ‘was the moving cause of the formation of the Guard of Honor, which organization secreted them. and to-day surrendered the charge.
