Mr. PARNELL's PURPOSES.
Wall there are two sources Of information. more
A. e.s satisac ory each accessible to all the world
The first is the testimony of Mr.. larclFs personal
,iends and political associates as tn-not his plans
but-his feelings aud wishes with rcScc To Ireland
and tbcrelations Of Ireland to England. They all
orree that Mr.. ParucIl dislkes England; that h"
has ecld. Vat fluatical and intense hatred of

mile Isav the dream, and il Is probably nothing
more II is not supposed he had ever Thought of
oreanzlug an armed rebellion nor that hc is az The
head OF a secret conspiracy. But II Is known U"t
when the present land agitation began IN Ireland.
AR FarucN took little interest in IL. H. Is himself
n landed proprietor, with some of the sympAthi'S
and prjudces. undoubtedly, which landed pro-
pietors generally have. At any rate, he was not dis
posed To lead an agraran movement. The grievances

nell Ii was only when he perceived that the hnd
t,onbIes might be turned to political uses that the
land trouble, became interesting to him. That cN-
plains his course on the Land hill. The better II is

THREATENING TIE GOVEHNNENT.
All this is an old story, but is worth lecolcctinr
RON time to time and Mr. Parnels last Two sperc hrs
which are tho second lanl also -sc'udary source OF
Information 70 his purposes, become more initil-
gibe by tie ght Of these "reminiscences lie spoke
in the Hous OF Commons last Friday, and IN Hyde
Park on Sunday. The two haran-u,s taken ccther
amount to something liz, declaration Of civil war
mot the sort Of war which might Dee Tie outcome
of a consr;.aev. hut Of an almost worse kni. the
beginnings of which aTc visible in the wild ont
breaks of ;he South and West which iii the papers
during the last few days and which have increased
since Mr.. Parnen SPOKE. He told tie
House that the Irish were saturated with
disafcctioa toward their rulers (which is not new
md justly 50. If the Government did rot grant the
lust claims lr Mr. Parnel. would not be- responsible
for the result Tue result he feared woud he great
loss of fr, AMI most probably the los Of the entire
property of the landlords The rcne 81 he proposed
was in substance, that the Government should
adopt the proposal of Archbishop Crokc !
stop evictons withdraw the military and the po-
lice, and leave 10 the Clergy the maintenance Of
prler AMI r.ace. Lord Harrington described thi, |
very justly. as a proposal tht the Govern
nent should Indicate. With not le,, accuracy he de-
nounced Mr. Parnclps prophecies thiulydi>1Il-cd
Threats TLe>c threats Lord Harrington He'd with
hrnness not. perhaps. with as much energy as
might have been expected. Il is by 10 means ulo
first time that Mr. Parnell has assumed in the
HOuse the tone of a Power coequa with She Crown
Dnd hostilet to It, | do not know whether 1t is in
iha "a.
any possible license of speech in the Commons
breaches Of politeness excepted-but when Mr.
Parnell presents himself as the leader OF seIit0n,
pne might have expected to find out.
In Hyde Park the disguise, such as il was. was
torn OIL and Mr. Parnelrs threats repeated in
nj the nakcdness Of their real meaning. Let the
Government make their laws Just before they en-
force them cried he" just meaning Just accord
ing TO tie standard If the Land League Then the
Irish people will obey them. Till then they will |
aisobey them. "Tbey cannot be expected to stand |
BY peaceably while their wives ard children are he
ing cast out of their homes and while their roof
trees are Long torn from over their heads |
Again: "The rrish people have been very patient
tAey haze been Too patieat; but they are becoming
aroused uos 10 a sense Of their postion-to the
power that combination and passive resistance give
the people" There is more in the same style; more
declarations Of the impotence of the Government
and the injustice OF the law. and the right OF the
tenants TO judge for themselves bow far they Will
obey the law. and the certainty Of their triumph II
they unite TO disobey it,
FRUITS or A DOUBLE POLICY.
Is this or is not the Ian guage OF who Ia,
hbove all things at heart the peaceful prosperity #

used by man who wants TO rid Ireland Of English
