DUBLIN, December SO.-The attendance
at tue court Is much fuller to-day
than on tho preceding days Of the
trials OF the lraversers Mr.. Law
in concluding his speech said tho
principles taught by the members Of the
Land lie que had been called American
principles, but they might be more prop.
erly described as red Republicanism, or
Nihllian, He expressed the hope that
when this misChieyious new gospel was
abandoned those whom II was now
his duty to prosecute would turn their tai.
enls to better account for ITeland'B sake.
Attorney General Law resumed hia ad.
dress to the jury this morning, speaking
for one hour, and CopClndod with ioICi
BILE psrorAtion, lo said he hoped the Jury
would be true tO their conscience and re.
turn q verdict satisfactory TO the country.
Disorder, he said, must DO put down.no
matter at what cost. AS he resumed his
seat there was no manifestation OF any
kind. A government short hand reporter
was then placed In the witness box to read
his notes made at public meetings attend
ed by Traversers,
Tho remainder OF the afternoon was
devotedt to the reading the short hand re.
porters, notes ol the speeches Of PArnell
and other leading trGversUrs, The Court
granted tho request Of Mr.. MacDonough,
OOunsel for the travOrscTs, that copies Of
the extracts besupplied him, The Court
further requested Mr.. Law to supply what.
ever the deIense required, and eaid the
Grown should render the deIense every
possible facility. Mr.. MaCDonough con.
tended the speeches delivered by two Of
the travsrsers since Information waa laid,
should not be read. The Court decided
against him, taking note Of the objection.
The Court then adjourned until Monday.
There are about twenty land meetings
to be held Sunday, but It is arranged that
none OF the traversers shall participate,
nor does Parnell intend to go to London
for the opening Of Parliament.

Embarrassment of the Powers that be.
WASHINGTON, December 3l,-0n DeCem.
ber Goth President Hayes designated Sec.
retary Ramsey to perform the duties Of
Acting Secretary Of the Navy In addition
to tllSse Of Secretary OF War. The ap.
pointment was msds under the authority
vested In the President, intended 10 enable
him to Oil any vacancy In the Cabinet, oc,
Casioned by death or otherwise, by assign.

the duties for period OF not longer than
ten dRys. Secretary Ramsey's appoint.

without q head, and vacancy
exists In the cabinet Some days since al,
announcement WAS authorized that the
President would re.appolnt Secretary
Ramsey every ten days until the 4th Of
March or the advent Of the new adminis-
tration, Yesterday, however, the question
was raised whether The President could
legally make second appointment for ten
days, and upon being referred to the At
tofney General It was decided adversely.
The subject provoked qul'e lengthy uis-
cussion in the cabinst to-day and after
critical examination Of tho lay ConClu.
sion was reached that the intent OIL the
statute was simply to relieve the Pfesl.
dent from an immediate embarrassment
occasioned by sudden vacancy IN the
cabinet, and thst authority 10 appoint
or Conslgn other members oil the
cabinet to perform additional duties
for ten days did not extend beyond
the one appointment, lie object being
simnly 10 tide over the interim until the
regular appointment could he made to till

RamIey from December 30h proves in.
