The section of the Cabinet which doubted

indictments thereto"
Referring to the arrest of Parnell, the Ga
zette says: What has been done has beer
done unanimously. Gladstone was informed
the arrest had been accomplished after hi
arrived at Guild Hall, and his announce

TO AMERICAN LAND LEAGUES.
NEW YORK. Oct 13.---Patrick Ford issues
anent the arrest Of Parnell, in which he
says: "Irishmen must retain their inn
pulses. Reason. not passion, should rule
the hour. Never did the Land League have
better opportunity to manifest its moral
power than now Never did it become the
duty of the Irish people to exhibit the vir-
tues OF self-possession, discipline and obe-
dience to the Land League more than now.
Through enlightenment and organization
the people will assuredly come into the
possession Of their inheritance Much has
been accomplished looking to this end
already. Gladstone himself openly con-
fessed the land League is the only Govern
ment in Ireland now with any moral force
behind it. Hence he makes war behind it.
He presents arms TO the majesty of ideas,
which are invulnerable and immortal. No
man who believes in the superiority of
mind over brute matter can entertain a
doubt respecting the final ISSUE"
GLADSTONE S ANNOUNCEMENT.
LONDON, Oct 13-In announcing the
arrest of Parnell he said: Il have been IN
formed the first step has been taken toward
the vindication of law and order, rights of
property and the first elements of civiliZa-
ton by the arrest of man who, entirely
from motives which do not challenge or
examine. has made himself prominent in
an attempt to destroy the authority of law
We are not at issue with the people of
Ireland. / firmly believe a majority of the
tenants earnestly desire fair trial of the
land act. The power with which we we are
struggling is that which endeavors to say
how far people shall obey the law. We
have no fear of the people of Ireland, but
do fear lest many more should become
demoralized or intimidated."
DUBLIN IN FERMENT
New YORK, Oct. 13.--A cable to the Irish
World says: Parnell was arrested in his
bed this morning and Immediately lodged
in Kilmainham Jail. Ireland is in fer
ment. Dublin is in terrible excitement
The city is an armed camp, showing this has
been premeditated. and prepared for action.
No event in the history of Ireland has so
stirred Dublin, and the only parallel is Paris
at the destruction of the Bastile.
QUINN, Secretary.
Noon---The condition of things at this
hour is awful The wave of indignation
hor 70
is no telling when it may break or what the
consequences may be. The Land League
Executive is at this moment sitting with
John Dillon in the chair. The worst is
being prepared for. 1t is rumored the Gov
eminent will take military possession of the
Land League headquarters, and proceed to
the utmost extremity of brute force to re-
press the organization. A calm but delib-
crate and decisive action can be looked for
from the men at the head. If men in Amer
lea stand firmly by us there need be no fears
of the ultimate result. aa
