highest Importance is attached to the serious
intelligence received from Ireland. Parnell
aud his friends have held private council
and resolved TO discard the policy of export
ing people to keep the peace. The moment
the land league is struck by government the
whole west and south of Ireland will be the
seat of National discomfort and desperation.
1t will become a scene of the most exciting
character. An early meeting of the cabinet
will! be called.

of the land league, was arrested at Bantry.
Other arrests are expected Immediately.
