IT would really seem as if it were time
for politicians to learn lesson in regard
to nominating men for prominent offices
whose distinguishing recommendation is a
large pocket book. 1t misses fire nearly
every time. Bookwalter of Ohio is the
last failure. He had not been even an
advocate of the principles much less an
exponent of the party. and the pocket
book seems in the end to have proven an
element of weakness rather than OF
strength. A. few more such examples
may teach a salutary lesson.

The LAND LEAGUE.-MOre AITests.-
The British government has followed up
the arrest of Mr.. Parnell by the equally
summary arrest of six other leaders of the
land league, all of whom are charged with
being suspected of reasonable practices
and with inciting people to intimidate
tenants not to pay rent. IT is stated that
quite a number of other warrants have
been issued, and all persons have been Off
cially notified that any attempt to intimi-
date farmers from paying rent, or to force
them 20 abandon their employment, or to
Join the land league, will render them sub
ject to arrest. It would appear from this
that the government has finally come to
the determination to break up the land
league organization root and branch, and
to put down any demonstrations of re-
sistance by force Of arms. 1t is change
of policy that will surprise those who be-
| lieved that Mr.. Gladstone would respect
freedom Of spreech, but it is also an indi-
cation that popular agitation has spread
so completely over many parts of ireland
that the concessions of the land act
cannot put a stop to 1t so long as the land
league has power to influence the people
What will be the outcome of these Wig
orous measures IL is difficult to say
Burke has told US long go that it is impos
sible to frame an indictment against {
whole people. The mere Suppression O
sporadic disturbances win amount to little
There viii be no armed rising, because tn,
Irish people haye already been very gen
orally disarmed, and because the leader
of the land league have wisely forbidden
1t. But no government has power do dea
with passive resistance, and passive re
J sistance, If Mr.. Parnell's counsel is follow
ed, will be found more effectual in baffiin
the efforts of Messrs. Gladstone and Fort
ter to induce the people TO accept the Ian
, act than open insurrection. Forcible sur
: preston may bring about seeming a,
3 quiescence, but 1t can never make of th
> Irish a loyal or contented peopie,--Bal

Letter from Townsend.

Letter from 'IDWnScn0s
Mr. EDITOR Mr.. samuel Townsend,
ST., who has been lying very ill at his
residence near this place for some weeks
past, is now Oh the mend and hopes are
entertained for his final recovery, although
during the greater part of last week the
chances seemed very much against him.
The new street spoken of last week has
taken form. Two routes for it were sur
veyed by Mr.. Roberts, in presence OF
Me3sls. Coybit, Williams, Townsend, Fer
gusOn and Vandyke, the committee ap-
pointed by the court for the purpose.
They were here two days but have come
to no conclusion, drawing of both routes
is to be made and decision decided upon
by the committee one day next week.
The younger portion Of the community
had quite lively time last Thursday
evening. 1t was OccasiOned by the mar
riagc Of Mr.. George V. Anderson of Will
mington, to Miss Josephine Daniels Of this
place, daughter of the Mr.. Daniels
spoken Of in my last from here. They
were stopping with Mr.. II. II. Lee, whose
wife is a sister to the bride, After the sere-
made, which of course included the Cali
! thumpian, Mr.. Lee threw open his doors,
and the way the eatables flew, was as the
darkey said "a caution to de white foxes
! they remained until the wee sma hours
before they took their departure. As in
tOxicants of all description were banned
of course there was no trouble from that
source, which | am sorry to say is to often
the case on occasions of this kind anC
other kinds too. The bridegroom is Il very
nice looking young man, and as for The
bride, she was dressed in, well l dom
know what, but as the ladies say, "shC
just looked too lovely for anything"

it can be successfully run here. The CO.
