WELCOMIID BACK. The Irish Delegates’ Reception Uncertain rds From O'Brien, [Copyrighted.) Dunstry, Sept. 4, 4 a. m—|New York Herald Cable—Special to the Brg. |—Me O'Brien and Redmond returned to-n received an ovation. They were met by a large number of bands and by crowds carry- inz torch Speeches were delivered from the windows of the Imperial hotel. O'Brien said they had found that the heart of the assembly at Chicago vulsated precisely like their own, and that there was NONE MORE DEVOTED TO PARNELT, or more determined to sustain and do noth- ing that conld discourage or embarrass him in the giant task he had undertaken and had already half accomplished more than Ire- land sympathizers in Chicago. If England only had Ireland, as she once had her—alone to herself, with uobody looking on-- there were men at the head of affairs to-day —mannikin Cromwells and Castlereaghs- IGroans], (thouzh Churchill wasa very di- minutive sort of Cromwell, indeed), men who wonld settle the Irish difficulty as Crom- well once settled it. They would send over their Sir Kedvers Bullers, would flood the country with their valiant runaways from the Soudan, and, if they had their way, would leave AN ISLAND OF CORPSES and desolation. Thank God that to-day that kind of thing was gone by. They were deal- ing now, not with this small island, but with the gigantic Ireland across the At lantic, an [reland where @& British coerclon act never runs, and where a British redcoat never puts his foot except to run. The Irish-Americans were very extreme men. e hoved those in Ireland were just as extreme in resenting and resisting English rule in Ireland. THE CHEERS AT CHICAGO. The proceedings and resolutions at the Chicago convention were the best proot that could be given of thg ridiculousness of the story that lrish-Aericans were setting them- selves up to be Parnéll's masters, or dictators of his poliey. Tiiey were the first to declare that Parnell and ‘the men at home were those who must _judge of the lines upon which thé campaign was to be worked. Tuey ougfit to have heard the cheers with which they at Chicago received Gladstone’s name, and seen the way in which Castlereagh, the new lord lieutenant, was lissed. ‘This was the, whole of the Irish question ina nutshell. Once satisty the aspirations of the Irish heart and the Irish nation would be led by a SILKEN THREAD OF SYMPA coercion—vell, all 1 would say was, that the cat of nine tatls was never yet twisted that had driven them, or ever would drive them. This was the message that they had brought home to the people of Ireland: Go onas they had been going on, give a good account of the Churehills, the Beaches, the. Bullers, and the rest of the bull family, who came over there to govern them against their will, “Go on and I promise you,” said the speaker in conclusion, “on the part of those civilians in America that they never will spare their treasure—aye—or if chance offers, they NEVER WILL SPARE THEIR BLOOD. Goon until the great fight is ended in the in- dependence of our land. We have troublous times before us, You have had bad times which have tried your mettle. Well, we will sing through the cyclone of trouble, and if singing will not do we will fight through it.” Mr. Redmond alse spoke, and an immense assemblage paraded'the streets, escorting the delegates home, JOCOSE JOSHUA JORDAN. A Protestant Teetotaler Talks on American Pay. [Copyrighted.| Loxpoy, Sept. 4—(New York Herald Cable—Special to the Ber.|—When “Big Ben” was booming “midnight” overhead in the house of commons, the Irish debate sprang up, during which, for the first time, the subject of the charge against Irish members receiving American pay came up directly. Jeremiah Jordan, a protestant teetotaler and tenant farmer and a member for Ennsikellen, who both looks and speaks whimsically, during his speech said: The honorable and gallant member for North Armagh, Colonel Saunderson, taunted the Irish party with having their orgamization sustained by Awmerican gold. Why, eold was the most powerful factor in England (Vaughter) in all political struggles, and it was simply because Lrish members had got the gold that they were able to fight England, with her own instrument and her own tools (Home rule cheers,) It was because they had the gold thathe first juined the land league. [Loud laughter,) iewas glad to see the house so happy, [Laushter.] In the north of Ireland, before the establishment of the land league, there were a few scattered tenant-rights associations, which, through want of money, were quite in- effective to do battle with the host of land- lords, bailiffs and agentws in that part of the country, But when the land leatue was founded their American brethren sent them gold, and so he threw ip s lot with the or- ganizations, [much langhter] which had the means and the power to do baitle with tyranny and the présjute of landlordism, [Home rule cheers] The honorable and gallant gentlemn, member for North Armagh said | it was' a dis grace to bel in! the house at the expense of othar people. He denied that he was there at the axpagss of other people, but if he were, he would be muintained and supported there, not by fore mgney, but by the subscriptions of his brothers and uneles [lauzhter| in America, and he should be proud of it [Home rule cheors.| He would rather be maintained from such a source’ than from money wrung by Irish landlords from the misery, poverty and hate of their poor tenants (Home rule cheering), Honorable gentle- men o that house were supported by the money of other peaple, and what he particu- larly complained of was that rish landlords, who madetheir money in Ireland, did not spend it there, but spent it in London, on the continent or in the Holy Land.
