There took place yesterday great Fenian demon

1t not for the fact that the said papers have ignored
the AFFAIR altogether, very much to the surprise, l

IT, Had this demonstration been one In favor OF the
Irish Church, or to petition Parliament against the
ballot, or for or against any ordinary measure con.

London press would have made the most Of it. But

The Lepdnt Herald publishes the following sum-

His Highness begins by clearing himself from the

was similarly due to the benevolent favor with which
his Majesty has designed to honor him. Az to his
alleged dlsrespect towards the ambassadors OF hls
Majesty during his recent tour he entirely dscaims
having been wanting In proper consideration TO their
exceliencles The mission OF Nubar Pasha Is
neither new incident nor unknown to
the Porte, which even furnished that per-
sonage with letters OF introduction when he
