SECOND EDITION
1.-THE LOYAL NORTH"
INVASION OF THE PROVINCE OF UL-
sTER BY THE LAND LEAGUE.

INVASION OF The fAOtlAC8 Vt Ch-
sTER BY THE LAND LEAGUE.
DUBLIN, Dec. 4, 1880.
The Viceroy issues proclamation to-
night stating that county Leitrim is In Q
disturbed state and ordering a large
number of extra police to that district.
The movement in the North is looming
up portentously, and is being watched
with interest, as the League Is making
great efforts to conciliate the Orange
men and enlist them under one banner.
They have made considerable progress,
Judging from the reports now coming in
every day of refusals to pay more than
the government valuation. The tenan-
try on Lord Lurgan's estate, having in
view their landlords refusal to reduce
rents, have decided to pay no rents for
the present. Sir Richard Wallace's ten
ants to-day drew up long and earnest
appeal for fifty per cent. reduction
While denying all connection with the
League, they express IN firm and logi-
cal argument their inability to pay the
present rents. The League meetings in
various parts of the North are creating
considerable excitement. They are not
yet very large or important, but are
making visible progress. A strong anti
League feeling is being aroused all ovel
Ulster. County Down has been the
first to act. A meeting of loyalists o.
each polling district Of Down, "to con
slider the state of the country and wha
steps should be taken to counteract th'
action of the League" was held las
evening in Belfast. A committee wa
appointed to carry out the determination
arrived at, winch is TO hold opposition
meetings wherever League meetings arr

A COUNTER RESOLUTION.

The following resolution OF the Grand
Orange Lodge of Ireland, referring to
the Down Antl-Land League, was read:
sThe Grant Orange Lodge of Ireland
heartily approves of the contemplated
action of the loyalists of Down to con-
teract the working of the Land League,
and earnestly recommends all true Or
angemen to aid in the movement. Poll
ing manifests, to which are attached the
names and addresses Of upward OF ten
thousand persons, representing all class
es, have been issued within two days to
the loyal men of Down. We have up
to the present watched with feelings Of
indignation the progress Of the Land
League organization, led by enemies Of
the British constitution and aiming at
the dlsembarkment of the Empire. 1t
damages every commercial interest,
teaches the reputation of contracts,
blackens our country by those revolving
outrages eliminating in murder and
crime which elude the grasp of justice
and shakes the fabric of ur.social sys-
TEN to its foundation.

THE DEATH OF THE WICKED.

There is n measure of good taste to be
observed and practiced even under the
process of giving up the ghost. In party
that certainly is TO be expected, but the
democracy in this, as in every thing in life,
is greatly violating the rules of propriety,
the decencies of dissolution in its taking
off, through the noise and confusion it
creates in its last struggle with the fell de-
stroyer. 1t sees the inevitable it feels the
cold damp of death settling upon its
corpus, the cells of its vitality nre rapidly
drying up, and for decency's sake 1t should
20 on with its dying under spirit of
resignation that will bring repentance for
its vast score of iniquities, aud secure for it
n becoming and peaceful end, when il may
he forgiven and perhaps forgotten. H.
stead of that, however, the democratic
party is making botched job of its de-
mise, rs il has OF its life and history from
the hour of its inglorious inception.
The democratic party is passing through
the agonies of dissolution in II very vulgar
manner. Having led life of dirt and
prohgacy it now seems to think that it
must end its days by exercising what little
of vitality and strength it has left in throw
ing dirt at its conquering adversary. This
Is the ruling passion strong in death" If
it had lived decently it might, perhaps, die
decently but having led the life it has it
may he unreasonable TO expect from it
greater proprieties in shuflling of its NOR
tai coil than have characterized very in
decent career. Nevertheless, for the sake
of public comfort, it is very desirable that
it should go on with its dying with little
less contortion and bowling and adjust
itself to its final resting place in such n
manner that when the final struggle is
over it will be presentabe rs pleasant
subject of contemplation, should it be per-
mitted to lie in state. For it TO die after
snch life is commendable, but, though it
has offended while living, it should con-
done the past by dying as quietly and de-
Gently as is possible, so that its history
may be palliated in the proprieties Of its
death,

'DuT what" ask the democrats "can tho south
do? Does the north expect southern democrat
to vote against his convictions merely to break mp
| the solid south?' Certainly not. All that the
north expects is that the white and colored repub-
lcan vote of the south shall have fair chance for
an honest polling and an honest count. It expects
that republican meetings In the south shall not be
| broken up by roughs, and that republican CAM
paign publications shall have fair chance to reach
hor destination. II expects that the poll tax laid
upon voters for the express purpose of dsiranchis
Ing large portion OF tho cOorcd vote shall be re-
poaled. II these things were fairly accomplished
the south would cease 10 be solid, without impos-
ing upon any southern democrat the painful or
deal of voting the republican ticket.

THE New Orleans Times is frankeT than
most of its democratic contemporaries rs to
the causes Of the democratic defeat in In
diana and their failure 10 decrease the re-
publican majority in Ohio, In this we
except the New York SVn--it is frank
enough to suit any stalwart.) 1t says that
it agrees with Senator HILL of Georgia
that HAMPTON and BAYARD are largely
responsible for the defeat in Indiana and
Ohio.
Senator BAYARDs statement In his New
York speech that the democratic party was
as good hard-money party rs the republican
party did well enough in New York, but IL
was very damaging TO the democratic cause
in Indiana. After that speech Indiana green
hackers saw no reason for voting with the
democrats Senator HAMPToN's Stauntom
speech WAS not without an injurious iniu-
ence. 1t alarmed the independent voters aud
prejudiced them against tho democrats
1t also pitches into the Arkansas editor
whose criminal ardor in endeavOring to
fire the southern heart prompted him TO
display the confederate flag at the head of
his columns on receipt Of the news from
Maine. In fact, tho Times is dlsgusted, and
evidently wishes that southern orators

THE democrats have permitted their
mud machines to run down, as they seem
to have come to the conclusion that they
do the party more harm than good. They
are now engaged in burglary in Virginia
and forgery in New York city. These are
fit agencies for that party, but they will
not strengthen the democratic cause any
more than the throwing of dirt, of which it
seems to be somewhat tired. Dirt and
crime usually go hand-in-hand.

IT is phenomenal fact that in the late
election in Indiana, at those points where
the democrats had all the machinery of the
contest in their hands, and where the dem
ocratic majorties were the greatest, the re-
publicans made the most gains. This SIM
pie fict shows that the democratic power
in that state is broken, and affords the be-
lief that the victory won on the 18th in
stant cannot he overturned on the I'd of

The warehouses of San Francisco are chokod
with grain. There IS not one quarter the requisite
number of vessels In It's harbor to carry to Europe
its enormous crops. Frcghts have advanced from
sll.is tho price last year to $3.50 this year. At
the same time wheat has declined thirty-hve cents
per bushel. There has not been year In the last
fourteen when price and cost Of transportation
were so unsatisfactory at present The result Is
that there is an indispositon to sell wheat among
all those who afford to holdit. The price is so
low that there seems little chance Of reduction.
and the freight rate is so high that II should not
rise much unless wheat rises for II is hardly pos
sible to sec how wheat at present prices can stand
any higher transportation rates. Some OF the city
siotistcans place the capacity Of the ships now
known TO be on the way to San Francisco at about
100000 tons as available for wheat but this is quite
inadequate to carry the amount Of wheat for sale
this year IL the price warrants IT,
