Protests Against the Land Bill.
DUBLIN, July 105h.-The resignation from
the Cabinet of the Marquis of Lansdowne
| has produced deep impression here both
among the opponents and supporters of the
compensation for disturbance in Ireland bill.
| 1t is regarded by the former with great salts
| faction and significant of the protest against
the bill within the ranks of the Ministry.
| The supporters of the measure are dissatis-
| fed. The Attorney General for Ireland has
| given notice of an amendment, which they
think betrays weakness on the part OF the
| Government. rhe Land Committee is aroused
to more energetic action in opposing the bill.
and increased efforts are used to combine all
| interested in the protection of property to
| defeat it. At special meeting OF the COM
| miJtee to-day letters were read from noble
men and gentlemen strongly urging the ne
cessity of using every eXertion to bring under
the notice of the Government and of Parlia-
ment the injustice it would entail on land
owners 1t was resolved that further petit
| tions be presented in both houses of Parlia-
ment, not only from landowners but from
representatives of the banking, insurance and
commercial interests, and from members of
the learned professions. The meetings of the
| committee are attended by landowners and
others representing all political parties, and a
most cordial union prevails among them.
land agitators profess to regard the bill of the
Chief Secretary for Ireland, which has caused
the detection from the Ministry and filled the
Irish landowners with alarm, as very small
affair.
