New CATEoaIsM FOR CLERKS. Evidently
the administration wants to know who hold
the clerkships at the capital and no doubt the
country will sympathize with the desire. We
are glad that the clerks have the opportunity
put before them to show what excellent citl-
zens and patriots and what virtuous men they
somely, and thus silence the slanderous wins
pers that they were all rebs in the war.

the landlords and generally hostile to the peas
antry are now the foremost to discover that
the root of the Irish difficulty is not TO be found
in religious disqualAcatons or the ascendancy
of one church over another, or in the rlotous
displays of Orangeism and the frothings Of
Feniansm, or anything Of that sort, but in
the substantial fact that the system of land
tenure is all wrong.
1t is pretty evident, judging from all the
signs OF the times, that disestablishment Is not
the thing to put Ireland at case, or even APP
proximate to render her a contented s'integral
portion Of the empire. There is something
more wanting, and that is hxity of tenure and
moderate rent for the tiller Of the soil COM
munity of interest," and not an antagonism be-
tween the landlord and tenant. This Is begin
ming to be understood and the subject will
most probably engage the attention Of the
Ministry at the reopening of Parliament. If it
should be approached intelligently the root of
the Irish difficulty may be reached and cut
into so deep az to disarm agitation and agita-
tors for this generation at least. AS far back
as August, 1867, we said In these columns -
"Among the grievances of Ireland may be
enumerated its present land system and the
Established Church. Any effort to abolish the
latter without pulling down the former would
be perfect farce. The abolition of the Church
establishment would be but poor comfort to the
Irish farmer or peasant, who stands every hour
in mortal dread OF the bailiff or the notice to
quit"
That ia just the question of to-day, and it is
pretty clear that public opinion in Great Bri-
tain is waking up to that conviction. This,
moreover, is not merely an Irish question.
There are good many bitches In the land
tenures Of England and Scotland also that re-
quire legislative overhauling, and the people
there will doubtless have some claims to pre-
sent in that regard. 1t is questionable, indeed,
whether the whole system of primogeniture
will not get good shaking up and sitting and
raking out before this land question is settled.
We are only at the beginning 1T.

count TO four per cent. Il says:-
The OF the discount rates this week has been

Some weeks have now elapsed since foreign loan
OF any importance has been attempted on this mar
ket. and the effect which has been produced by The
higher rates offered for deposits In bringing forward
supplies for employment In the discount market has
been this week increased by the liberation OF some
thing over million sterling, by the repayment OF
pany. The high position Of the foreign ex-
changes again. since the advance In the mar
ket rates OF discount, at the CHIEF conti-
mental cities has not only insured arrivals OF bullion
going into the bank, by which the coin and bullion
according to the last return, stated likewise from
other sources, has increased by f57229 but has
brought some gold from the COntinent and no doubt
the superior class OF commercial paper in this mar
ket Is an attraction 10 some capitalists OF the Cont
nent where, for the time being, money Is so plent-
tul and the rates considerably below our own. The
Bank OF England return Is sufficient evidence that
the demand has been only to small extent while II
further proof wanting t is to be found In the TACT
that the rates for first class paper out OF doors are
a full one-quarter below the bank minimum. To-day
the possibility of move In the bank rate to four per
cent has been spoken OF as the basis upon which
some operations have been entered into upon the
stock markets, but so far the circumstance deserves
but little attention.
The receipts for customs and tho receipts. pay
