IREL,ANn,s RENT CHARGE.

The statement tina, the annual rent
charge upon Ireland amounts to the
enormous sum OF between eighty-hve
anu ninety million dollars, is OF itself
sufficient explanation oi the irrepressi-
bic dissatisfaction, and the poverty OF
that unhappy people
But il may not Ue altogether safe to
draw the conclusion. from the size OF
the aggregate sum, that the individual
charges are eNhorhttant We might
iairly deduce O different conclusion IRON
data which appears to be reliable, AS it
comes from the news columns OF one OF
the organs OF the Land League.
The exhibit To which we refer, gives
the details OF the first 1870 apple, .oES
made TO the Land Court through the
lsnd eague for the reduction OF an
improper rent to lair rent. THIS ought
to show very reliably not only the size
Of the rent charges, but the charges of
which the Land League complain. The
following is the exhibit in the two
cases:
Case No. l-Timothv Sullivan, Keel
macowen, CaStletown- Bsre, County
Cork, 80 acres; yearly rent, 49, los.
poor law valuation, sl3 rs; arrears
due 10 date OF eviction, go los; date
of eviction, July -, 1881. Case No. >
William Dwyer, Wehan, Csstletowu-
Bere. County Cork, u acres; yearly
rent, gl6 lis; poor law valuation,
Els l5s.; arrears due 20 date OF eviC-
ton, GS3 IS; date OF eviction, July -,
1881. Both holdings are on the
estate of the Earl OF Bantry. ami both
are rated at ~ per cent. above the poor
law valuation. A. an opening infer
ence, il will be seen that Mr.. SULLIVAN
was trusted for eighteen months rent
before eviction, while Mr.. pwYER oh.
tanned credit COR two years rent before
eviction. Mr.. SULLIVAN was charged
SlO9 30 per annum for sixty acres OF
land, or 81. 81 per acre. NJ. DwNEH
was charged $50 - per annum Tor TWEEN
ty-one acres OF land. or SS.SS per acre.
To put the point from another stand
point, the former paid -. 10 per week,
and the latter Sl55 per week for the
house that covered him and the land
from which he made his living.
These two sample cases, the first
brought 10 trial under the new land act,
if thew furnish a fair exhibit OF the !
average rent charge in individual cases, |
do not strengthen the impression OF ex-
ordnance conveyed in the statement OF |
the gross sum which Ireland pays. And |
vat, ii the sum OF $4,000. 900 is actually .
in the shape OF rents from
Ireland, every year, there IS no argu-
msnt that can. in the face OF that state
nent, obliterste the conviction that she
8 carrying q burden greater than she is
.ble to bear.

MR. WISDOM has published plan Tor
the reorganization aud reform OF the
civil service which he had devised lew
DAYS before Mr.. GAgFIELD's assasslna-
ton, and which, it is said, would have
been given a trial had there been no
change OF administration. 1t is very
pretty plan on paper, but to reform the
civil service in theory is one OF the easl-
est OF enterprises, Many ideal projects
in this direction have been advanced,
and some OF them have been put into
operation, but somehow OF other, after
all said and done, the problem Is still to
be solved. The point in Mr. WlSDoMs
statement which will make the deepest
impression upon the pubic miGd is his
assertion that five sixths Of the suhor-
dinate appointments dunng the past
eight months were distributed in the
same way and from the same motives -
alias are given to the importuma'o aud
suffering Dcggar upon the streets. That
statement is really astounding.
