Land League Resolutions on the
Dublin NEurdera.

Dublin Murders.
A large meeting of the Augusta Land
League was held on Monday evening, when
Messrs. Walsh, Daily, Mullarky and Tobin
were appointed a committee to draft resolu-
tons expressive of the opinion of the League
in regard to the horrible murders recently
perpetrated at Dublin. The following were
submitted and unanimously adopted:
"Our Creator has endowed all men with
certain inherent and inslienable rights, and
among these are life, liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness.
"While in the enjoyment of these bless
| ings we are not inseDsible to the struggles
of people In other countries for the enjoy
ment of similar rights. The contest in
Ireland commends itself to the sympathy
and support of the citizens of this govern
ment, especially to those of Irish birth and
| lineage. The people of Ireland have been
and are still deprived OF those rights and
liberties which are enjoyed by the citizens
of all civilized and enlightened governments.
| There can be no lasting peace in Ireland
there can be no prosperity for the people
until these principles are recognized by
Great Britain. 1t is not only the duty OF
| the English Government to give to the Irish
people, who till the soil, an opportunity to
PURCHASE tue ldnuB Dub W COulCf upon buC
people Of Ireland the right which Canada
aud Australia enjoys-namely: local self
| government.
'While entertaining the opinions above
| expressed, and while pledging ourselves TO
promote, by all honorable means, the sue
cess of the Irish people in their struggle
for the right, we cannot countensnce agra
rian outrages and other acts of lawlessness,
which bring into discredit and disrepute an
otherwise just and patriotic cause; be it
| therefore
| "ReS0lced, That the members of the Au-
| gusta Land League have heard with indig-
nation and profound regret of the assassina-
tion of Lord Cavendish and Mr.. Burke, in
| Phoenix Park, Dublin, and that the perpe-
! traitors of this horrible Grim Deserve, and
should receive, summary puni ment.
| "ReSOlred, That we cannot h. eve that any
| friends of the Irish cause cOU g: be guilty Of
| deeds which st'fls every sense of justice,
shock the sensibilities OF mankind, outrage
the civilization of our age and violate every
| law-human and divine"
