ultimo. From these latest papers we clip the
following:
CHICAGO, June ia Washington dispatch

House and the Treasury Department to-day,
after which he and Secretary Schurz took a long
ride together. He is preparing everything for his
vacation, packing up his books and papers to

that his campaign will not be formally opened in

90 by way of Harrisburg and Pittsburg.
Ex-senator Conover of Florida, the Republi-
can nominee for Governor, leaves for home to-
morrow. He is confident that the Republicans
will carry the State and he will be elected. There
is a Discrimination manifested on the part of the
Congressional Committee to lend any assistance
on the ground that the South will be solidly De-
mOcratic anyway. Southern Republicans depre-
cate this policy, and say that with proper aid,
even if no State can be carried, important gains
can be made in Congress, if they have help.

and those whose preference is at all pronounced
favor Bayard. John Kelly, just before his de-
parture from New York, said he did not believe
Tilden could be nominated. Tammany had no
especial f~avorite, but it would put up a third tic
ket in the event of Tilden' s nomination. Wash

ton should be paid to the second place on the
ticket. Colonel Fem of Iowa passed through
Chicago yesterday bound for the Convention.

Tilden a complimentary vote, but that Seymour
is their favorite. The Chicago Seymour Club
will go to Cincinnati with white bats, blue
badges and gold fringe.

LONDON, June l9.-The second reading of the
Irish Land Bill in the House of Commons is fixed
for the 22d inst. The bill provides that until the
31st of December, 1881, eiectpepts for NO. r~y

distress is prevalent shall be deemed a disturb

of the Landlord and Tenant Act of 1870, and
the tenant shall be entitled to compensation, IN
the discretion of the Judge Of the County Court,
If non-paymeDt Of the rent is caused by the pre-
vailing distress and the tenant is willing to con-
tinue in the occupation upon reasonable terms,
as to rent, arrears of rent, and otherwise, and
such terms are unreasonably refused by the land
lord. The bill meets determined opposition from
the Conservatives who denounce it as confsca-
ton. The newspapers oppose the bill unquall-
fedly. The Home Rulers have resolved to oppose
its progress until the Government produces a bill

compensation to the occupiers of the land.

other empowering the Minister or Home Score
