The EXPLOSIVE .LETTERs.--Dispatche
from London, of the 2Sth of December, give
an account of a large number of explosive
letters having been received at the Dublin
post office, in Ireland. They are said to ex-
plode as soon as the attempt is made to open
them, and that great excitement prevails
in Dublin and throughout the country, on ac-
count it, The cable dispatch says:
An unusually large number of letters have
recently been received at the postoffice at
Dublin, directed to prominent officials. Each
one Of these letters was loaded with explosive
matter, designed to kill the persons to whom
they were addressed. Several of them explo-
ded before their nature was ascertained, but
up to this time no person has been killed.
One of the policemen of the city, who receiy-
ed one of these letters, was horribly mangled
by the explosion which occurred when he
opened it. ...,
1t is not known how many of these danger
Gus missives have been dispatched Consid-
cradle excitement prevails both in Dublin and
elsewhere throughout the country in conse-
quence of the discovery. The authorities are
actively investigating the matter, and will, no
doubt probe the matter to the bottom. The
Times of this morning has an editorial on the
Fenian question. 1t says no less than 10000
special constables have been sworn in and are
now serving in London The writer calls at
tention to the grave public danger, and calls
upon the provincial towns to emulate the pre-
cautionary measures of the metropolis.

ROAD MEETINGs--We publish elsewhere
the proceedings of several road meetings,
which took place on Monday last, in the sew
eral election districts of the county. We
are glad to see that at each, prominent and
active men have been selected to represent the
several districts in the County Convention,
which meets in Bel Air, on Tuesday, the It'll
of the present month. This is as it should
be. There is no improvement which adds So
much to the value of property in county
or neighborhood as good roads, and it is no.
toriously true that it is easier and less expenl
sive to keep road which has been properly
made in good repair, than it is to keep bad
one in passable order, We hope, therefore,
that our County Convention, which meets OH
Tuesday next, will devise some good, practi
cal mode of repairing our roads, and of this
we feel that we have very good guarantee
in the appointments which have been made.
We have not been furnished with list of all
the appointments, but if we are to judge OF
the balance of the county by those already
sent us, we think that no one who is friend
to good roads will complain of the complex
ion of the County Convention. .aIgugt =.
