Parnell, the President-SOme Strong
SnaRcheS.

NEW YORK, Oct. GA cable special dated Dub
lin, Oct. 21, SayS:-A private conference of tenant
farmers was held here to-day. Thirty-two Irish
counties sent their delegates. Cork and Mary
borough, Galway and EnniscaSrthy, BallinrObe,
in the county OF Mayo, Tipperary and Sligo, were
particularly strongly represented. Mr. Parnell,
M. p, was present. The conference was held
for the purpose Of forming an Irish land league
which should compass two main objectS-the
first being the reduction Of rack rents; the
second that oecupiers of land might have
facilities for obtaining the ownership Of it. Mr..
Parnell was unanimously elected president.
Long discussions ensued, the sense Of the meet
ing being that the time was gone when land
lords could be asked to abate their rents; that
the people who titled the soil had the right to
live on it, and that even If general abatement
Of rents were made this would avail little with
out security of tenure. The charges of terror
ism brought against the movement by oppost-
tion journals were Indignantly refuted, and the
sending of "coffin notices. and all violent meas
ures deplored But a letter was read from
Major O'Gorman, NJ: p, in which the writer de-
clared before Almighty God that the Irish had
more cause for violence than had the French in
17s9 Finally it was determined to draw the
counties together into q solid organization dur
ing the coming winter, and thus defend the
farmers against those threats of eviction which
now hung over them. Resolutions were passed
inviting Mr. Parnel to proceed to America, and
there win the sympathies Of the Irish for their
afflicted fellOW-cOuntrymen
