vy,trumontnnism In Ireland.

The London Daily NeCcs calls attention to two re-
markabe facts in connection with ireland. The
first Is that ultramontanlsm III losing It's hold the
Roman Catholic population 'fn the prospect OF equal
justice to all Churches" The other Is that Irish
Orangeism Is becoming democratic, and, except ON
the Church question, Is IN accord with English radi
calism. The proof Of the tlrst Is found In the cir
cumstance that In many parts OF Ireland the lower
clergy are In silent revolt towards their superiors

terious disappearance OF viscount dArchiac Profess

tory, continues unexplained. On the 10th OF De-
cember he left his residence after having told the
servant lie would be back by dinner hour. lie was
shabbily dressed at the time and wore OLD Office
cap with the object, perhaps, as much OF avoiding
recognition as OF encouraging the idea thar he Wns
not going to any distance. He carried under his arm
u napkin containing letters aud papers which he
threw into the letter box OF the Legislative Body.
They were farewes to different friends, as well as
to the Minister OF Public instruction, to the direc
tor OF the museum, and to his notary, to whom he
sent his last Instructions. He informed them AL
that he would not return, and he desired that his
departure should be shrocded In as much mystery
possible. The probability is believed 20 be that he

IRELAND.


The Latest A8rQrlau Outra8es
correspondent OF the Irish Times gives the fol-
lowing particulars Of the attack on Mr.. PIERCE
regret having to record an atr0cious attempt at
assassination In this hitherto peaceable locality On
last night about six O'Clock as Mr. William ii. Pierce
OF Cloneycowan, was returning homo from Trim,
where he had been in attendance at the Quarter Ses
sions. and when he was within short distance OF
his own house, about mile aud half from Ballvor
he passed two men the road, who went one each
side Of the gig which he was driving. Immediately
he passed. by them two shots were fired at him In
quick succession. one OF them taking effect in his
left arm, through which three siugs or bull
lets passed near the shoulder not breaking
the bone, however. His breast also was
grazed by some OF the shot, Mr. Pierce had with
him IN the gig at the time his nephew, boy about
twelve years DID,, who sat in the front seat with
him, and farmer named Andrew Keeie, one Of Mr.
Perce's tenants, who sat behind. The night was
pretty dark at the time, and the wouldbe murderers
got clear away. Mr.. Pierce was brought into his
own house and DR.. Nolan, Of Athboy, was sent for,
and dressed the wounds which are not OF very
dangerous nature. Mr.. Pierce had q very narrow
escape. As the men before separating on the road
walked in front OF the horse the latter at the
time going at an easy pace The Balivor constabu-
larry, under Constable U'Donnell, having been in-
formed OF the occurrence proceeded at once TO the
place, where the resident magistrate tE. j. Banon,
ESQ., ID. L., F. st. CLAIR Ruthyen and = Murphy,
Esqs., sub-inspect0rs, were promptly In attendance
TO investigate the matter. No arrests have up to the
present time been made.

ITALY.
The Tax Riots in Upper Italy,

trIOm tuc AOuuOu NcWhs JUL l.l
The disturbances In Italy, consequent upon the
application OF the new grinding tax are not yet At
an end and royal decree was issued yesterday en-
trusting to General Cadorna the duty OF restoring
order. In the Southern provinces the impost has
met with no opposition, and the Corresponds nee
Hdliene mentions that IN that OF Lecce, where II Is
customary to stop the mills on New Years Day,
they were kept at work to show that there
was no hostility to the measure. Unfor-
tunately the same feeling was not exhibited
IN Upper Italy. At Pavia, Pacenza, Vicenza,
karma and Bologna disturbances took place. while at
.fampeggtne really severe conflict occurred be-
tween the peasants and the troops in which several
persons were wounded and others killed. The
Florence Malone, denouncing the exuitatl0n with
which the news OF these disturbances has been re-
ceived by Piedmontese paper, expresses the OPT
Mon that no tax could be more equally distributed
or less oppressive and inconvenenG to the commu-
nifty. Opponents OF the impost however, call 1t a
deestable one and say that the Italian government
would have done much better to reduce It's military
expenditure instead Of taxing one Of the first neces
sares OF nfe the daily bread OF the people.

Correspondence of the London Times
The Bishop OF Cadlz has addressed an appeal to
Marshal Serran0 on behalf Of the misguided men
now in prison. In his petition for mercy, In which
he is joined by the chapter OF his cathedral. he ex

Marshal Serrano, before coming to any decision on
this petition Of the Bishop OF Cadiz, viii probably
though could not venture to afirm-that the prayer
SO earnestly expressed for mercy WIN be favorabiy
heard; but ground my fears on the character OF the
TWO marshals. To rise In arms against govern
ment, though 1t be only provisional government;
who only did their duty in trying to put military re-
bellion down. to shed the blood OF those who merely
obeyed the orders OF their Chiefs must be considered
crime OF deepest dye by men OF such strict principles
Prim and Serran0 particularly In all that relates 10
military discipline. Had the worthy preate to do with
men OF lax notions on those points-lnen who had
themselves occasionally transgressed IN the same
way as the Cadlz and the Malaga insurgenIs-there
might indeed, be some chances OF their compliance
with his prayer; but, as theY have been faultless
themselves throughout their whole career, lear
that this very exception to frailty Will make them in
flexible In dealing with men whose great guilt Is
that they have not succeeded. Marshal Prim In par
ticular, Ia very stern in such matters remember
once seeing poor peasant brought out and shot, at
Corona by his order for having been found with
the chief OF band OF military insurgents, who but
few months before had been his own associate IN
similar rising.
