THE DLsOUZET IN IRELAND.


The condition of things in Ireland,
instead Of improving, grows more
and mere alarming. Fresh oHtrages
are committed, and in many districts
ne one who opposes the agitators or
submits to the landlords is safe. The
condition of the people is worse than
that of any people in the world.
Late dispatches from London say
that The speech Of Chief-Justiee
May, Of the Queens Bench in Ire,
land, in which he refused TO grant
a Postponsment of the Irish state
trials, has caused great excitement
among the Land Leaguers, who pro-
fess to regard it as a plain intima-
tion that the power of the Court
will be used in the interest Of the
Crown during those trials. The in.
temperate remarks OF the Chief Jus.
tice have not been received with any
favor whatever in London. and it is
rumored that the Lord Chancellor
win enter protest in behalf Of the
Government against the general
tone Of the speech. Il is is we'll an
derstood that as soon as his trial is
called Mr.. Parnell will attempt to
leave Dublin for London and that
che will be arrested. The other in.
dlcted members of Parliament will
also undertake TO attend to their
Parliamentary duties in London and
if hey succeed in getting out Of Ire.
land they will introduce 8 resolution
in the House which if adopted will
have the effect Of bringing about an
immediate debate on the State trials
and will bring the whole Irish qaes-
ton directly before The House OF
Commons. It is not likely, however,
that ar. ParneH orsaBy ofhia fellow
members will be permitted to leave
Dublin when once The trials are call
ed and It's now believed that should
he be arrested serious consequences I
will follow. The Land League are
on the point of making new move y
against their enemies, the landlords. !
The tenants are to be instructed, to
deduct the pslice taxes from their /
rents before offering even Grifiith's 8
to the landlords. and as
The cost of the constabulary is no
small item in the Irish budget just '
now, the reduction 10 rent will be t
30 serious that the landlords cannot z
afford to accept it. This is an en-.
Lirely new phase of the rent question
and one which will be watched with !
considerable interest. I

Our interchangeable beef vender, Jacob
Hodges, outside of his own peculiar
business, is gaining some notoriety as a
keen detective and for the ability he
displays in bringing thieves to justice.
On Thursday morning last, a negro
named Samuel Smith, brought to town
an OK and offered it to Mr.. Hedges at a
price so low that his suspicious were
aroused as to the honesty of the dealer.
He therefore, before closing the con
tract with Smith, made'it convenient to
interview certain officers en- the subject
who were soon on the alert and jerked
the thief. The OK was proven to be the
property Of Mr. James Turner, who
made his appearance in town a short
time after the arrest in search of it.
Smith was lodged in Jail, placed on trial
and sentenced TO five years in the peni-
Tertiary. Jake rarely fails to catch his
bird and cage him in the above institu-
ton.
