New York, 4.-HerGLd Dublin: One
of the first cases of agreement between
landlords and tenants, regarding the pur-
chase Of an estate is reported from Mona
CHAN. The tenants of the estate of Will
liam Ancketell, deputy lieutenant, met
under the auspices Of Mr.. GiVan, mem
Der of Parliament, who advised them
to go before the land court or to arrange
to purchase the estate on the basis OF the
existing rent. It was Of immense advan-
tage that they should become absolute
owners Of the land. For such as could
not raise the necessary one-fourth of the
purchase money, he was prepared to
find it, rather than that they should lose
the benefit of the act. The landlord,
Mr.. Ancketell, who was present, was re-
ceived with loud cheers On rising to
address the meeting, he said, that nothing
would give him greater pleasure than to
see the estates of his ancestors going
back into the possession Of the people
| who had been tenants upon them so long.
He was quite prepared 10 accede to the
purchase of the estates by the tenanta,
and would 60 with them to the land com
mission to avail himself of the arrears
claims of the land act He desired to see
the estates settled and in quiet possession
of those whom he addressed. He would
| afford them every facility to become their
own landlords. The tenants then re-
solved to take advantage Of the peasant
proprietary clause of the land act, and
| become purchasers of their farms.
RerGEd'S Belfast: The decisions Of the
| land commission here to-day are Of great
importance. Regarding the Crawford
estate the reduction amounts to about
| twenty five per cent. on sn average, over
all the property. The proviso is that the
landlord is to pay half. The county cess
will represent an additional saving to the
tenant Of about five per cent, or thirty
per cent. in all. The tenants have got
the benefit, not only of direct reduc-
ton, but Of an increased value of the
tonsnt right arising from the reduction.
Without going into the details of indi-
vidual tenants, I append table showing
the past snd present position Of pzrticu-
lar estate in which judicial rent hss been
fixed. The scrasge Of Crawford estate Is
431 acres, 8 rods, 80 perches. Griffith IS
valustion was 944, 6l0, rent prior to 1866
943, 010,r since 1866, e640, ia; reduced
rent &47, 2l4.6 Present reduction
Gl6S 2.1n.
In TIE revised rent the landlord pays
half the county cess, equal to | shilling
in the pound. There ara now 13, 900 ap-
plicatioas before the land court, ard the
only hope Of the commission getting
through their work in decade is that
the landlords, finding that sweeping re-
auctions are being made, will offer % or
so per cent. to their tenants, while the
tenants, finding that the commissioners
are forcing each side to pay their own
costs, will agree to al agreement in order
to save the costs.
Londcn, "a curious plan is adopted
in soma parts of west Ireland, with a
view to keeping the no rent manifesto
before the tenants It takes the form Of
a promissory note, which has been cir
culated among farmers attending the
fair. The note il promise to pay rent
on the day Parnell, Dsvitt and other sus-
pscts are released It is intended that
it ahal be signed By both tenants aud
landlords.
The Manchester Examiner publishes 8
vague statement that government in
tends 10 relieve Parnel and colleagues
in time for them to participate in the
proceedings OF Parliament, provided the
state Of the country justifes the step.
Dublin. The military authorities
have insugurated system of alarm
drills, to train troops to fall rapidly into
defensive position in case of attack. This
is revival of the practice which pre-
vailed during the rebel movement in
1843.
