his arrest and ON his removal by the Lord Chancel-

1t is pleasure to be able to say that Mr. Forster
met this insolent demand with frmness and spirit
He declined to accept the Lord Mayors account OF

Government were convinced that there was
very great danger that the mob might
seize the city and sack it, lie assumed
the whole responsibility for what had been
done to protect Dublin from that peril. lie de-
cared that the clearing of the streets of which the
Lord Mayor complained was absolutely neces-

surance whatever that the Lord Mayors requests

patience came 10 an end. He stopped Mr.. DaWsoh'
NJ p Lord Mayor-elect, in the very act OF advising
him how 70 deal with the next mob, and turned HIM
and the whole deputation out of the room.
Thatalso is an act of which the irish NINA VIII uh
derstand the meaning which they will bitterly
censure and will in their hearts sincerely respect
and admire as they do every act of resolution ana
courage. There has been talk of rioting at Liner
lex and elsewhere. Thus far il has come to nothing
1t is not likely to come to anything so long as the
Government show stern front The IRISH are
brave. but IRISH mobs, like all mobs. are cowardy
and they have a wholesome reluctance 10 proceed TO
such extremities as should compel Buckshot
Forster to do something to deserve his sobriqu't
But il is sufficiently evident, as was saying that
nothing serious has thus far occurred In Dublin OF
elsewhere II does not appear that single lie was
lost on Saturday or Sunday, 1t is not likely that the
League officers themselves, or so many oi them as
are still at large, desire collision with the police
and the military. They are entitled 10 the credit
of abstaining from open cOunsels to violence But
as they abstain from that, they must rclinqush the
attempt TO point to disturbances proof popular
indignation against the Government. The Gov
ernment on the other hand, may well afford 10 dis
regard indignation which can be satisfied with
words Time is on their side. If they really do
break the League in pieces, and secure fair trial
for the Land Act and the general acceptance of 1t,
criticism on their methods will fall harmless.

Rorasios of Crops.

In a wcllp'anncd system Of farming, the
subject uf fcroP,rctations should be carefully
considered, as one-of Che essentisl elements
of success IN its highest and best sense. 1t
seems to be the prevailing opinos that the
allernation oferops, p systematic order, is
modern invention that was gradually de-
yeloped Us direct result Of the applications
Of science to the art Of agriculture. The
early writers on agriculture, even from the
times Of the Greeks and Romans, have how.
ever, quite uniformly urged the advantages
Of q succession of crops from the teachines
of experience. They were satisfied that q
variety of crops grown in succession, all
other conditions being equal, would give q
greater aggregate yield than could otherwise
be obtained. The reasons for the succe IS oi
