I RELA ND.

D ÜBLIN, Dec. 29.

The Land Question is not allowtd to slumber.
Meetings are still held or projected in various
places, and by the time Parliament meets the whole
country will have pronounced on the subject. A
requisition is in course of signature fora conference
of landed gentry, Parli.unentary and municipal
representatives, to be held in this city on a day not
yet named. To-day the county of Wicklow is to de-
clare its opinion. In the Noah there is a distinct
movement in progress. It is characterised by much
of the independent and practical spirit of the pi o-
vince. On Mot day a free contcrence was held at
13a113 meant under the auspices of the Ballymena
Tenant-right A' seciatton. Sir Shaf to Adair pre-
sided. Mr. Eagleson, of Ballyclare, moved the
first resolution, which stated that the tenant-right
in Ulster consists in buildings and improvements in
draining, fencing, and reclaiming lands, with-
out the assistance but by the sanction of the
landlord, and that it is just and right that the pro-
perty so created should be secured to the tenant
farmers by legal enactment. He maintained that
the " undertakers" who were the ancestors of the
present landlords get the laud for great public pur-
poses, and not as private property. They were to
reclaim the morasses, make roads, and build houses,
but they failed to do so, and the tenants stepped
in and did it. The tenants, therefore, should
not be deprived of the property which they had
created. The resolution was seconded and
passed unanimously. Mr. Caruth, solicitor, pro-
posed the next resolution, which declared that
it was unjust to limit the value of the property so
created. The Rev. Mr. Jeffeteys, who seconded
the resolutioc, mentioned instances of the limi-
tation of tenant-right by some landlords, who
increased the rents when improvements were
made, and others who restricted the sale of tenant-.
right in open market, and obliged tenants to sell
to particular persons. Mr. M'Kane, a barrister,
deprecated the use of strong epithets against the
landlords, and s.►id there were none in the loca-
lity to whom they could properly be applied. The
meeting expressed its dissent, and interrupted the
speaker. '1 he Rev. A. Robinson, in a long speech,
moved the next resolution, which denounced arbi-
trary evictions and demanded " adequate security
of tenure by the tenant upon payment of rent, ex-
cept in cases of great public improvements and for
building ground, opening mines, royalties, and the
like, as may be determined by a laud court of
equity." He denied that the tenants in Ulster were
contented and happy, but said they would be so if
tenant-right were legalised, and undisturbed con-
tinuous occupancy secured so long as a fair rent is
paid. He argued that other schemes would fail to
satisfy them. 'The resolution was seconded and
passed. Other resolutions declared that the rights
of the owner should be carefully respected and as-
certained by periodical revision, and that special
courts should be established in each province to
frame regulations for the settlement of disputes be-
tween owners and occupiers. The latter was ably
advocated by Mr. Thomas M'linight, of Belfast.

Mr. T. D. Sullivan writes to the Freeman to
correct the statement of the Post that Mr. John
Martin had expressed an unwillingness to go to
Parliament. He states that he has received a letter,
in which Mr. Martin says he is well pleased at being
put forward as a candidate, and that if elected he
shall not only be very proud of the honour, but
regard the act as an excellent one, and as the very
policy that, in his opinion, "is likely to lead to
Repeal, and a peaceable settlement of the national
question." The agitation in the county is be-
coming hotter as Friday, the day of nomination,
approaches. It is reported that on Sunday par-
tics of strangers from the adjoining couutiLs
of Westmeath and Cavan poured into Granard,
and the people were addressed by a depu-
tation from Dublin. The Rev. Mr. Mullen, C.C.,
of Westmeath, has espoused Mr. Martin's cause,
and is doing battle against the Longford priests.
While this meeting wai going on, Mr. Greville-
Nugent drove into the town, and immediately his
friends clustered around him, and improvising a
meeting, with the Rev. E. M'Gaven in the chair,
passed reso:u ions strongly condemning the Dub-
lin and other deputations, declaring that the elec-
tors and priests of Longford will not be intimidated
by a mob got up against them, but will manfully

go to the, poll and show their enemies' and the

eremies of tenant-right that they hold the interests
of Ireland, the interests of the tenant-farmer, and
