10 the chances Of the other two candidates,
am inclined to think that Mr.. DAILY 10 the most
likely to win. He il q moderate nationalist
and, although tho vast majority Of tho Cork
people are extreme nation alsts, yet tho electors
ing, are moderate, and some are even Whigs,
who dialike aationalists 30 much as they do
Tories. If the open system of voting prevailed,
there would Le NO contest-ne one would dare
vote against Mr.. Ronayne. So that Cork is one of
those places where the Ballot will work rather
against than for tho extreme nation alists. OF
course, it will never work against Home
Rnlers or moderate nationaiists in Cork or
any whore else. Whoever is elected for the
Southern capital will be Home Raler, what
ever else he is. ...-..... .e..s
IN D0Fry the situation mas become quite oX-

in y Baron of the Exchequer. and Oh the Same
day issued bis valedictory address to his con-

Mr.. PAllas-toOk measures to DO his success

day he called by placard q meeting of
The Liberal electors, and in this matter it was

Of ec-e ntric appearance but of the most invete-
rate Home Rule prejudice was moved to the
chair amidst the most raptuous applause! Mr..
hi- coat-t tails torn Oft, and whom he essayed to
speak he was met with cries of 1--WE want no
place-hunter or priest-hunter here" away
with Judge Keogh," etc. What he contriyed
to say may be summed mp in one sentence.
"Strike your Home Rule flag, lest, the Liberal
party being split, o Tory-your old enemy
get in" The answer given him was that it
was he who was dividing the Liberia! interest,
that Tory should get in than that member
of the government should be retHrued. This
wes the answer given him at the meeting and
il is the answer; given him by the Catholic
press of the North. "A T.ry is infinitely pre-
ferahle to Whig," says the lesdipg organ of
the Northern Catholics-the Belfast EramiRer;
.'our first duty is to keep out the Wing, our
second to elect the Home Ruler" It was fur-

the portion of the Liberal party on which he
relied-the Preebyterian-nunbers only some
$50 electors, while Mr.. Biggar's party, the Ca
tholio portion, numbers $40, aud that, there
fore, il was excessively impudent in bini to ask
Mr.. Biggar to retire. or course, as the Nation
remarks this week, Mr.. Pallas asks Mr.. Bigsar
to retire, not to keep the Tory QUO, but to get
himself returned. Having been asked .about
his part in the impending prosecution of the
Galway hierarchy. Mr.. Psllas very disngenu-

he was only complying with their own request

they asked for it or not. On the whole, he
Jared badly, and there can be no doubt if the
four candidates now before the electors go to
the POLAND practically there are only four,
Mr. Rea not being in a position to get a single
vote, and DR.. EvOy Kennedy havipg resigned
in favor of Mr.. Pallas-Mr. Biggar will win.
If one of the two CONSERVATIVES retire. much
more certain is his success if Mr.. Pallas retres,
the other Conservative will get in. If Mr..
Biggar retires-but as this is an impossible
