wart peasants assembled at the residence of the
father of J. Houlihan, lately lodged i'll Kilmain-
ham jail under the coercion act, for the purpose
of planting his crops They were assisted by about
two hundred horses and eighty plOwS. Soon after
four hundred men, with pixies and "slanes,"
marched to bog three miles off and cut two hun
dred creels Of turf for the same person. On their
return, headed by the Ballyduff brass band, pro-
ccssion was formed of horses with plows, and the
men fourdeep with pithforks and other agricultural
implements on their shoulders, marched through
the village. In short speech the Rev. Thaddeus
OSullvan, C. c., president of the Causeway League,
praised them for their bold and generous spirit and
advised them all to return peaceably to their homes
The people in a short time quietly dispersed.
A short time since over two hundred members of
the Gneeveguilla Land League marched to the
farm held by James and Michael MoyDihan father

of Kenmare. The amount due was f45, and it was
sold to Mr. Perrott, clerk to Mr.. Hussey, in Lord
Kenmares office. for g. The Land League had
with them one hundred horses, forty plows, and
ten harrows for the purpose of tilling Mr.. MOyni-
hans crops, which work completed in less than
thirty minutes, the tllage consisting of potatoes
and oats. The immense number OF persons pres
ent then departed, cheering loudly.
