LONDON, Nfay 18.-Tlla strongest argument
which the Tories ndynllcc against tho Latd

point to the large Increase IN tho

from the increase In the Number Ut elect
1nenta, Us proof TINT tho Irish tenant Is dis
satisfied will, the measure, and nj
though the argument Is q flfmsy one,
1t has some weight with tho English
people. The Opposition will wind up t1oir

The Government majority will exceed 100
oven though NIL tho parnellites should stick
to the agreement to abstain froul voting.
Parnoll, III determining on Ills course, acted
contrary to tic advice Of tho cool

vote for tho bill on tho ground TINT 1t Is q
step towards moro complete settlement Of
the land question, md that by supporting
it tho lIomo-Isnlers will show their
willingness TO accept good measures, from
whatever l'arty thoy may come, is imprcgna-
bic. Tho fnct Is, Mr. Tarnell Is disappointed
with the bill, becal,se 1t goes further tl,au
ever he dreamed Of, and knocks agitation,

AORAIstAN AGITATION Is suRsIDINa-
the recent 0utragcs are duo against nola-pay-
Ing tenants ut Whitsuntldo-!s shown by tho
steady decrease OF receipts of the 14and
Leagne. At meeting OF the Executive
Committee Of that body in Dublin yesterday
It was announced that tho weeks subscrp-
tons amounted to $500, To nccount for
this gront talltng.off, tho Acting Treasurer
said tho usual receipts from Amerlca had not
come to hand. There was q general crnver-
satlon oil tho advlsnbllity OF ordering q
atrlke against rant all over the country
about the 1nadtlcst step Mr.. Sexton and his
associates could resort to, for It would nl-
most certainly leatl to the defeat Of the Land

Fourth Of July Poets.

EDITOR HERALD: As the matter
Of Fourth Of July poetry is now un-
der discussion in your impartial
paper, will you allow me . hand In?
IN beautiful capital OF a beauti-
full, young and growing State,
about ten years since, q poem was
called for by committee Of three
gentlemen-one an educated min
Letter, one the Professor In the
Seminary and the other repre-
sentative, educated newspaper man.
The poem accepted was to draw a
prize. There were sixteen compet-
itors, among the number . poeti-
cally gifted young preacher, to
whom I told them they ought to
have given the prize; but the com.
n,ittee, to whom l was at that
time q perfect stranger, insisted on
accepting the poem OF your hum
BILE servant and awarding him the
prize.
Now, II poetry 10 not proprietary,
or exclusively In the keeping OF
some person, clique or nationality,
down aud out here In the golden
southwest, would 1t not, In the
sweet bye and bye, have more the
appearance Of fairness, and / had
almost said OF decepcy, toward the
good people Of our city and county
and toward the person who should
write the best poem for any public
occasion, to initiate the above ex-
an Die, rather than to make O per-
sonal choice, as heretofore? Thus
creditiug genius to the mere acct =.
dent Of = name, association or ma
tionality.
Again: We all know that one
poet would excel on some particu.
lar subject or occasion; another
would be much better on some to-
tally different matter-as, for In.
stance, fruit or floral exhibition,
and at smother time the cry Of .
great nation on the lose Of one of
her favorlte sons In ppace or In
war, or In the recurrence Of ma.
tion's birthday or it, centennial.
Should we not give the grand
masculine poet his opportunity to
wave hla enchanting wand of royal
glory over the triumphal car, or
ever the sacred tomb Of the nations
heroes, or invite the sweet femi-
nine poetic spirit (of either sex
