venture to suggest to this how they may help forward the

wilder tenants. It is impowible for us to play the game of
oar opponents than by sash means. Their tame is not
against rent, peak, and wages ; it is an attack upon the
egrieultanl interests of the osnatry. They tell as that they
wish as to mite this country the workshop of the

mash harm if England never grew another grain
of wheat. And, la the third place, they tell us
that Ragland ought to be govitrned by the kegs
towns. To these propoeitious I offer every possible objec-

with pious horror anything in the shape of an evangelical
churchman. The committee of the society have taken the

of the diocese on the subject. His lordshep's reply to Colonel
Kingscote is worded most ambiguously. The right

its purport. I trust that nothing of the kind whist you

A sale of lands in the county ofDantam Msyo was to have
taken place yesterday before the Encumbered Estates
Commissioners, but wee postponed, owing to an
omission in the advertisements, the rental not having
been printed, and some other inaccuracy having
occurred. The court was crowded with persons ex-
pecting the sale, and Mr. Commissioner Long&ld ex-
pressed great regret for the disappointment which
had taken place.

failure of the crop seems to have diesppeared ; hope

built once more on the potato. The same correspon-
dent adds that the new division of the electoral dis-

results in the Newcastle union. %There is now," he
states, " a considerable amount of erop'.oymint given,
and when active proprietors find they ate rot to pay

A plan projected by Sir John Macneil, the eminent
railway engineer, for the extension of a system of
branch and connecting railways over Ireland has been
laid before the Monaghan grat.d jury, to bring it
under public notice. bir John proposes the fot ma-
tion of a government commission under whose
control the sysnem should be worked ; the
grand juries should present for the land
necessary for the foundaion e.f the railways in
their respective districts, and should guarantee the
interest, the railways being co'.structed by govern-
ment advances, to be repaid within a number of years.

together with a shed in which 30 much cows were
