Irish Revelation.

LONDON, December 10. A despatch from
Dublin to the Times says il is hardly correct
to say anarchy prevails in ireland. for there
is very distinct government which is
rapidly superceding the imperial government
and is obtaining ascendency. Ii rules with
an iron hand and promptitude. which inforces
instant obedience. Its code is clear, its
executive resolute, its machinery complete.
There is a government de facto and a govern
ment de jure. The former is welding power
which is felt and feared. The former is a
terror to well-doers, and the latter terror to
evil-doers. The law of the land league is
becoming the law of the land, while the law
of State is costly and to a large extent sus-
pended. The new Law is effectively admin
istered, cheaply and conveniently. League
courts are springing up in various places, and
people are instructed to have disputes de-
cided by such courts and to go no more to the
Sessions. As rule, the penalties which
such courts have power of inficting are re-
garded with more dread than those imposed
under the statutes. Another function of the
new government. the levying of taxes, is
most effectively fulfilled.
No rate assigned by the law is half as
promptly paid the tax which the league
imposes. License to sell at fairs and in
market is required by the new government,
and is enforced by summary process. The
only element wanting to constitute the new
government is standing army, but materials
for one are being fitted for use when called
upon.
1t seems too plain that the Irish govern
ment has already allowed the On of law
lessness to assume dimensions it should
never have reached. Remedial legislation
which might be proposed and carried under
better circumstances, cannot be presented as
| brides to purchase peace from highwaymen.
| To check lawlessness now is difficult, but
what is this to the difficulty that must b.
experienced in checking it hereafter! II it,
development is not now stopped, wher
1 Forster comes before his colleagues the mos'
determined of them who have hitherto
, opposed him must be newly impressed with
the responsibility of the situation.
| The Standard says: The summonses fol
the Cabinet council, to-day, were hurried,
issued, yesterday. 1t is possible that to
morrow an immediate meeting of Parliamen
will be announced. Forster has informed
his colleagues that without coercion he de
clines the responsibility for the government
of ireland.

Miss Avis Pinkham, whose parents reside

PIeurO Pneumonia.

WASHINGTON, December IS. An important
meeting of the House Agricultural committee
will be held Wednesday to consider measure
to be recommended to Congress for the sup
preston of pleuro pneumonia, and for the
prevention of its being spread from one State
to another.
Commissioner lie Due, in his report on
pleuro pneumonia in cattle, gives the result
of previous investigations, which located the
infected districts in portions of Connecticut,
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
Maryland. and Of subsequent Investigations
engaged BY reports from Englandof diseased
cattle arriving there. Of the latter he says
it has been proved clearly that these diseased
animals came directly in most cases from the
West, from sections far removed from con-
taminated districts. This he holds means that
we have this decided cattle scourge estab-
lished among our western herds. That
Chicago, Buffalo, Albany, Boston and Port
land are diseased centres. or else the disease
is not pleuro pneumonia at all. The report
closes by recommending Congress to enact
such measures as will restrict the movement
of cattle sent from and within infected dis
tricts, so that in due time every case Of the
lung plague may be eradicated.

Secretary Thompson rendered his resigna-

question of absorption of the slightest por-
ton of territory of any of the Central
American States he would have been in
favor of using all the power of the United
