The London Times OF Tuesday, in Its money ar
Sicie comments on the rapid increase OF the i'm
p6rtations OF wheat from the United States. The

The London Times Of Saturday last, in an
article on the Irish land question: says 1t is not
onr business to satisfy the Fenians. They would
not be satisfied IL Ireland-was doubly confscated
for their benefit. IN closing accounts with Ire
lard 1t may be just and necessary to recognize
prescripNve rights OF doubtful origin, but 1t can
not be SO to foster the growth of similar right In
future. Our business is to do justice between the
parties constituting the bone and sinew Of Ire
land whose interests are identical, and to. o.extir
( patethe most ancient root OF Irish wrongs. 1t

ed to sacrifice the next generation. Ireland wants
rest from sgitetion but short-lived rest must not
! be purchased by concessions pregnant with an
archy.
