New Nork, 12.-LoIdon cable to the
World: As the success or failure of the
land bill turns altogether upon the land
curt, IN which the entire machinery Of
the act will be vested, great interest
is felt in the probable composition of that
tribunal. a court of landlords however
lib raj, would destroy public confidence
in the bill, while on the other hand ifthe
extraordinary powers created by the bill
should be placed in the hands of men
notorious or their lesnings towards the
popular side, the landlords would at once
set themselves to defeat the measure,
and the result might be fraueht
with peril not only to the bill itself, but
to the peace Of the country. lis said on
pretty good authority that three memb beers
of the court will be Lord Muck, Mr..
Justice Barry and Mr.. William Shaw,
NJ. P, fer the County Cork. If this re-
port is true the choice of the government
will assure the efficient working of the
measure and command the confidence Of
landlord and tenant alike. Lord Mouck
(best known to Americans as governor
general of Canada from 1861 to 1863 has
had large experience In dealing with the
land question as one of the Irish church
The land court, or land commission, az
it is termed in the bill, is the appellate
court to which landlords and tenants
may appeal from the decisions of the
civil bill courts, and it also possesses
very extensive powers to help tenants TO
buy their holds by advances up to three
quarters of the price and by purchasing
estates and reselling to tenants.
The 18th passed off quietly in Ireland.
There were, IS usual, a few skirmishes at
Belfast and Lurgan, bat the police were
not Gale d upon TO interfere. The people
Of Ulster are too deeply engaged with the
land bill to pay much attention to the
memory Of the bad old day. The
League leaders, greatly to their credit. |
sent out circular some days ago, urging |
The Catholic population to let the Orange !
men celebrate in peace. The celebration |
Is gradually growing out of fashion,
The speeches made to-day at the
gatherings throughout Ulster were d.
'ected more against Mr.. Gladstone's for
'Ign policy than against Rome Some Of
he speakers urged counter organization
against the Land League, and dwet on
entity shown by Mr.. Forster to the evic-
loH mobs, but on the whole the oratory
vas unusually fat. Reports were re-
eived early in the evening from Cork
hat serious riot had broken out near
ne Patrick's Hill barracks, but it turned
ut to be only the regular 18th fight
between the Catholics of the North Gate,
7no attire themselves in Orange regalia
nd play Orange tunes for the occasion,
nd their co-religionists of the South
tate, who sssail with clubs and stones.
t Is an immemorisl family affair ar
anged purely for diversion, and the
olice allowed it to proceed in peace.
London, l4.-In political circles the ex-
lanation of the Irish opposition in the
Commons to the emigration clause of The ]
and bill is that they wish to prevent the
ssssge Of the bill and believe the rejec- I
on of that clause would cause luminosity {
} the bill in the House of Lords.
