DRIFTING INTO ANARCHY.

LONDON, Sept. 28-A correspondent
of the Times at Dublin says: The
murder of Lord Mountmorrs has ex-
cited feelings of alaiCn little short of
panic among all respectable people.
Party d dffarences are for the time dis
carded in the presence Of common and
imminent danger. 1t ia said on all
sides, with equal dependency, and
bitterness that there is no longer any
security for life or property and that
nobody can feel safe who ventures to
assert rights or discharge duties
connected with possession, occupation
or management OF land il his acts
conf let with the interests or preju-
dlces Of those with whom he has to
deal. The country is fast drifting into
anarchy. The arm of authority seems
paralyzed aud the executive utterly
helpless. Although at present tn e
panic is felt most keenly by the land
owners, it is shared by the employers
OF labor who see the growth of re-
fractory spirit among the subordinate
class. The scene of the last murder Is
in district which is the very centre
Of the land agitation and crime
ia the result Of commu.
nistic conspiracy of the worst
type. Il is idle to pretend that the
murder was not agrsrian. It is in
vain that the land agitators now re-
pudiate all responsibility from the
crime. Let them unteach, if they can
the lessons Of the last eighteen months
which they have been impressing up
on the ignorant anu excitable people ;
let them restore, if they can, the moral
sense they have depraved and the con"
science they have deadened; let them
er deavor to revive the principles of
| honesty and the instinct of humanity
which they have helped to stifie by
appeals to The base passions of cupide
iFy and revenge. The country will
nov hold the sgitators accountable for
the atrocities which have been the
natural result Of infismmatnry lau-
guage, which they have delivered and
the pernicioUs doctrines they have
taught in any place where they could
erect q platform. Peaceable and well
disposed people are now alarmed and
anxiously lock for some action on the
part OF the government.

Thursday night the grocery of N. b.
Ireland, at the corner of Fourth avenue
and Commercial street, was entered by
burglars, who succeeded in making a
haul of about fifty dollars in silver be-
longing to Mr.. Ireland, and lot of
watches, chains, rings and other jewelry,
valued at $500, belonging to A. jean
neret, whose place of business is in the
same room. The thieves effected an en-,
trance by boring out a passage for the
hand through the rear door, and then
reaching in and slipping aside the bolt
There are evidences that the burglary
was committed by parties who
are familiar with their calling
and understand their business
| Nothing was disturbed save the money
and the goods belonging to Mr.. Jean
neret, who has missed about forty
watches and quite number of other ar
ticles. 1t is likely that this business
will assume the form of an epidemic
and we advise all of our citizens to pre-
pare to give such customers warm re
ception. Meanwhile, our policemen
want to keep their eyes peeled on mel
who carry extra watches, and who ar
loafing around town without any visible
means of support.
