FOREIGN NEWS.
The Arrest of Parnell.

LONDON, Oct Is. 1t is understood that the
determination to arrest Parnell was reached
at yesterdays cabinet council. A warrant
was issued to the detectives of Dublin on the
arrival there of Foster. who left London i'm
mediately. A later account represents that
Parnell was arrested at Morrisons hotel on
two warrants, signed by the chief secretary
of Ireland. charging him with melting peO-
pie to intimidate others from paying their just
rent, and to intimidate the peasants from
taking the benefit of the last act. Parnell
was taken to the Kilmainhan jail.
The reported arrest of Parnell is only the
preliminary to still more vigorous action
against the land league. Moderate liberals
and conservatives approve of the arrest. 1t
is believed that ParnelPs speech at Wixford
furnished the government technical justifica-
ton for this arrest. 1t said John Dillon will
assume the presidency of the league. The
military force at Dublin is held in readiness
for action in the event of an emergency.
Coincidence from U. =. Land League.
BosroS, Oct. Is. p. A. Collins, Presi-
on receipt of ParnelPs arrest, sent the fol-
lowing cablegram to the executive in Dublin
BosroN, Oct. IL.
To the Sexton Land League, Dublin:
Parnelfs arrest is Gladstones blunder.
Parnell in prison must be the strongest force
of the league. Continue his policy. Stand
firm and keep cool. British game has al
ways been to crush the agitation in Ireland
by provoking civil war. Defeat it; keep
old lines. Be patient as you are bold. The
American league will redouble its work and
stand by you to the end.
(Signed) COLLINS, Pres't.

Does the World Miss ANY One ?

Not long. The best and most useful
of us will soon be forgotten. Those
who to-day are filling a large place in
the worlds regard will pass away from
the remembrance OF men in II few
months, or at farthest, in few years
after the grave has closed upon their
remains.
We are shedding tears above new
made grave and wildly crying out in
our grief that our loss is irreparable,
vet in short time the tendrils Of love
have entwined around other supports,
and we no longer miss the one who has
gone.
So passes the world. But there are
those to whom loss is beyond repair.
There are men from whose memories
no womans smile can chase recollec-
tons OF the sweet face that has given
up all its beauty at deaths icy touch.
There are women whose plighted faith
extends beyond the grave, and drives
away us profane those who would en-
tice them from worship Of their
buried loves.
Sucl. loyalty. however, is hidden
away from the public gaze. The world
sweeps on beside and around them and
cares not to look in on this unobtrud-
ing grief. 1t carves line and rears q
stone over the dead aud hastens away
to offer homage to the living. 1t cries
out weepingly, "le roy est mort" but

DoNGOLA, July Ia, 1881.
Among the ten thousand visitors to
Cairo on the 9TH instant, were cold Trim"
and Mrs Trim, who, like every other indi-
vidual did their best to take in all the good
pertaining to the city. Of course, we had
to feel patriotic all the time, as agreed upon
before leaving home, so we followed the
procession to the park, and listened to d.
T. l.. S Grafton and the reading of the de-
claration of independence. We don't mean
the I'D. T. L." that formerly lived in Don
gala, and itemized for truthful Tomma's
Jonesboro Gazette. No, that I'D. r. L."
wore out dozens of new hatchets on differ.
ent subjects, but never did deny it. To cut
the matter short, the Grafton was a fine one,
doing much credit to ID. T. Lnegar. After
seeing the boy climb the pole, and some of
the races, also some dancing, we wcnded
our way down Washington avenue and
when we came to the neighborhood
of the custom house we took refreshments,
after which we repaired to the Halliday"
and there Mrs. TIN, entirely forgot to feel
patriotic, didn't talk any more of our ma
tons birth, but did talk lots Of chapters,
"a to whether such massive and grand
structure, would be paying institution.
We told heri certainly would, for 1t is To-
Gated in city, whose future is bright, and
that capitalists, would eventually wall the
old Mississippi river in, with solid stone
walls and this done it would not be many
years till the population of Cairo, would be
counted by the hundred thousands. Mrs.
Trim said she believed 1t, and in such an
event we would do all our trading in Cairo.
From the Halliday" we sauntcred up the
Ohio Leve, and when about Myers and
Bross' place we again commenced to
feel patriotic. Well, If that Cali.
