LO2s'DO,N, MONDAY, AUGUST 17, 18G8.

One of these tragic scenes has just taken place at
Tipperary -which cause so much anxiety and suffer-
ing, and give rise to serious doubts respecting the
condition of the country in which they take place.
Of late fortunately their repetition has been rare,
and it seems strange that this affray should have
taken place so shortly after Baron DEASEY had
commented on the satisfactory condition of the
country, and on the absence of serious crime. The
favourable impression produced on his mind at the
opening of the Commission at Nenagh and Clon-
nael has now been dissipated by the agrarian outrage
referred to. It appears, however, that this case
is somewhat exceptional in its character, and
that circumstances continue to render the relations
between Mr. SCULLY and his tenants mDst unsatis-
factory. '1 he former is an extensive landed pro-
prietor, and seems to have been wanting in tact and
discretion, both in provoking the ill feeling and in
not giving more heed to its existence when filly
proved to him. Of course nothing can in any way
excuse or justify the lawless act of some of his
tenants, but it is always a pity to exasperate people,
and a great mistake not to show moderation. In
attempting to enforce strict compliance with the
tcrins of the agreement, Mr. SCULLY gainel such ill
will and reproach that his unpopularity was extreme,
and he found it necessary to go about attended by
two policemen. They remained at this house, and
accompanied him wherever he went. It is not cer-
tainly a matter of surprise that the existence of
such circumstances should have led to evil results,
and that disastrous consequences should have en-
sued. It cannot be said that Mr. SCULLY acted in
the spirit becoming one in his position, for b "e seems

The arrival of a new diplomatic representative
of the United States among us is at the present
juncture no insignificant event. In these days of
telegrams and constant traffic an Ambassador in-
deed is no longer so responsible an agent as formerly.
He is in continual communication with his Cabinet;
on any point of difficulty he can obtain their direc-
tions, and they are as much au fait with the politi-
cal atmosphere of the Court at which he is stationed
as he is himself. They have a thousand channels of
information independent of the accounts which he
furnishes, and the very journals of the day supply in a
great measure the place formerly filled by an Ambas-
sador's letters. In the time of QUEEN ELIZABETH
or the STUARTS a Minister stationed at a foreign
Court held a position hardly second to that of any
other. Much depended on his sagacity, his tact,
his observation, and in those days when peace and
war were matters not for the consideration of
peoples and Parliament, but depended on the
absolute will and pleasure of the Sovereign,
it was all important that the represent Itives
of the great Powers should be capable of
acting for themselves on sullen emergencies ;
weeks must claps before they could communicate
with their chiefs, even on matters of the greatest
moment ; and if we look back two or three hundred
years, we find that it was partly the duty of our
Ambassador to give a full and faithful picture of
the state of affairs around him. His correspon-
dence was generally voluminous, and in many in-
stances, when drawn from the recesses of State
paper offices into the light of day, it has formed a
valuable addition to modern history. Many vo-
lumes of much interest to the student and the
scholar have been compiled from the manuscripts
of the Ambassadors, both English and foreign, of
that very reign of Q seen ELIZABETH to which we
have referred, and every librarian finds them a
place on his book shelves.
No such arduous literary undertaking is expected
from Mr. REVERDY JOHNSON, whose recent arrival
among ourselves is regarded with so much interest.
London is not the terra incognita to the occupant of
the White House or loiterers on Broadway that it
was to the German EMPEROR or the burgesses of
the Continental free cities in 1568. The British
Channel in those days put a wider gulf between
France and England than the Atlantic now inter-
poses between England and America. The most
industrious and observant of ambassadors would ill
supply the place of the ever-circulating press, which
carries daily into every civilised country the news
of all the world. Nevertheless, the office of an
ambassador even in these days is no sinecure, and
no diplomatic position is more onerous or more
difficult than those filled by the representatives
of England and America at Washington and
London respectively. United by strong ties of
mutual interest and sympathy, the two nations are
yet too often alienated by petty jealousies, suspi-
cions, and misunderstandings. The ill-judged
adulation of everything American, in which some
enthusiastic Radicals among ourselves have been in
the habit of indulging, provoked contemptuous re-
joinders from their adversaries which gave offence to
the Americans, while it was at another time too
much the fashion to represent Americans in a ludi-
crous aspect. It was easy to exaggerate their strongly
marked peculiarities; and the conventional Yankee
on the stage or in fiction was a eompound of abs irdity
and impudence. The Americans are extremely
sensitive to ridicule, and no doubt much of the
irritation,which at one thne.threatened serious con-
sequences was due to causes which both countries
would have been ashamed of if openly put forward.
Happily all this is changed. Our statesmen and
public orators speak of America with unfeigned re-
spect, and the traditional Yankee is no longer to
be found as the butt of satire or of the drama.
American home life has been made familiar
to us by the graceful pens of American
novelists, while in the higher walks of
literature LONGFELLOW and BRYANT, P nEsco rr
and MOTLEY, are read and honoured in England
fully as much as among their own countrymen.
Still the misunderstanding and mistakes of the past
have so far left their traces that it needs skilful
hands at the helm. It is highly desirable that the
representatives of the English and American
Ministers should be men who accept it as their
office to be peacemakers rather than war makers ;
whose object is to conciliate the goodwill of the
people among whom they dwell, to smooth away
misunderstandings, and be prompt to offer and
accept those timely explanations which
often avert serious complications. The
gentleman who for so many trying and difficult
years filled the post of American Representative at
the Court of St. James's carried with him universal
regret, but it was with great satisfaction that we
fottucl the choice of his successor had been so for-

The Lords of the Admiralty who arrived at
Devonport on Friday evening in the Enchantress
were Vice-Admiral Sir Alexander Milne, K.C.B. ;
Sir S. Dacre.., K.C.B. ; Rear-Admiral Seymour, and
Sir J. C. llay. The Secretary, Lord 11. G. Lennox,
arrived on Saturday morning in the Black Eagle.
The Controller of the Navy, Admiral R. S. Robin-
son, and Lieut.-Col. A. Clarke, R.E., director of
engineering, came by train on Thursday. Early on
Saturday morning the Lords of the Admiralty were
received at Devonport dockyard by Admiral-Super-
intendent the lion. James R. Drummond, C. 8.,
Capt. Willes, C. 8., who is at the head of the Steam
Reserve, and the various officers of the establish-
ments. The Board were occupied some time in the
office of the Superintendent, after which they com-
menced their annual inspection, visiting the Prince
of Wales, 115 guns and 3,994 tons, fitting as a
training ship for naval cadets at Dartmouth, in
place of the Britannia. The Windsor Castle, 97,
3,101 tons, was also visited, which is intended to
take the place of the gunnery-ship Cambridge in
Hamoaze. Their Lordships then passed through
the South Smithery to No. 2 slip, in which the five
gun sloop Tenedos is about one-third built. In
No. 5 slip there is under construction a mooring
lighter for use in Ihmoaze ; and these two compa-
ratively small vessels comprise the extent of the
master builder's duties at Davenport. A cursory
examination of the ropehouses, boathouses, &c., was
made before luncheon. After this, by the aid of a
steamtug, the members of the Board, omitting the
Secretary, were conveyed by steam to Keyham-
yard. Here they visited the new pumping-house,
the Lord Clyde, 23, and the turret-ship Prince
Albert, where some time was expended ; the guns
were manned and the crew worked the turrets.
From No. 2 dock their Lordships went to No. 3
dock, on board the troopship Himalaya, 2, the bot-
tom of which is recoating. Passing through the
joiners' shop they next went on board the Duke of
Edinburgh's frigate the Galatea, 26, in the south
basin. Her repairs are not very important, except-
ing that she will require new boilers. Some six
weeks or two months must elapse before the Ga-
latea is ready to proceed on her second voyage
round the world. After walking through the great
qu ►drangle the Lords of the Admiralty proceeded
in the steamtug Trusty to inspect ships of war in
Hamoaze.

On Friday the shipwrights at Chatham dockyard
commenced laying the blocks and ways in No. 3
dock for the new armour-clad turret-ship Glatton,
which is ordered to be forthwith built at that estab-
lishment. It was originally intended by the Admi-
ralty that the Glatton should be built by contract at
the yard of one of the private shipbuilding firms,
d
prepareddrawingsalad plans for the vessel were
accordinglyunder that intention, the
a nt
Admiralty having decided that a second armour-
clad broadside vessel, of the Audacious class, but
with a single.lifting screw, should be laid down at
Chatham. Their Lordships have, however, thought
it expedient to reverse the original plan, and it is
now decided that the Triumph shall be constructed
at one of the northern private shipbuilding yards,
and the turret ship Glatton built at Chatham, in
the same dock as that from which the double tur-
ret armour-clad ship Monarch was very recently
laanched. The drawings and plans received at
Chathamiatton to oc
beya a vessel the Admiralty show the
G 700 tons burden, with a
dockyard from
of
2,
length of 245 ft., and a breadth of beam of 49 ft.
It is, however, in her armour-plating that she will
surpass in defensive po wera every ship yet constructed
it being intended to plate her with armour 12 in.
in thickness along her most exposed parts, while on
her turrets the Glatton will carry armour of 14in
in thickness, laid on a 10-inch backing of teak,
plating. Unlike the
withnon
Monarch—the
—usuthael innerdeck of which is encumbered with
a topgallant forecastle the single turret of the
Glatton will have an all round fire, and this will,
in some degree, counteract the disadvantage
under which she will labour in having but one
turret. Her offensive will, at the same time, be
on a par with her defensive powers, it being
intended to arm her with a couple of 25-ton
guns—the most formidable armament yet given
to a vessel of war. Her engine power will be
of 500-horse (nominal), which seems inadequate
for a vessel of her formidable class, as, under
the best estimate, she can, with such engines,
be driven through the water at a speed
little, if at all, exceeding nine or ten knots an
hour. As, however, the Glatton is intended for
coast defence, although, possibly, she might be re-
quired to make an occasional cruise as far as the
..Niediterranean, it is not deemed desirable to insist
on a much higher rate of speed, which would, of
course, necessitate her being fitted with engines of
a more powerful class. Considering that the
Glatton will have a mean draught of water of 19 ft,
it is doubtful whether she will ever be able to ope-
rate with any advantage along the coast, there
being but few harbours or channels she will be
able to enter save under exceptional circumstances.
She is to be built from the designs of the Chief
Constructor.

WORCESTER HOP MARKET, Aug. 15.—The mar-
ket continues inactive, and all thoughts are now
turned to the growing crop. The fine rain which has
fallen here in the last week and the two or three showers
previously kas just saved us from groat disappointment.
The long drought was severely telling upon the plant,
but the rain, with accompanying warmth, has made a
wonderful difference, and all doubt is now removed with
regard to the crop The hop is rapidly growing, and
picking will begin beforo the month is out, so that we
shall undoubtedly have a•very large supply at our great
annual hop fair, which is held in this city on the 19th of
September. A good many hops, however, will be sold
before that time.

IRISII DOGS.—The number of dogs registered if,
Ireland in the year 1867, under the Dogs' Regula-
tion Act of 1865, was 256,752—name1y, 15,909 in th(
towns, and 210,843 in the counties. The dog licence duty
received in the year amounted to £25,675 45., being 2s. per
dog, and after deducting the expenses incurred in the ad-
ministration of the act—namely, £6,041, there remained
£19,631 surplus, which was paid over to the Eaveral towns
and counties in due proportions.

The monster iron dry dock at present in course of
construction by Messrs. Johnstone, Campbell, and
Co., at the Albert Works, Silvertown, under Ad-
miralty contract, will be launched on IVednesday,
the 2d of September. This dock will be taken across
the river to the Royal Arsenal, where moorings are
being prepared under the superintendence of Mr.
Moore, shipping master. It will remain a day or
two off the Arsenal, and then be towed to Portland
for trial. Subsequently, on the first favourable
)pportunity it will be towed across the Atlantic by
rive steamers to Bermuda, for the repair, &c., of the
vessels of her Majesty's North American and West
Indian stations.

The Maori, which arrived in tho Thames on Fri-
