R LEAGUE MANIFESTO.
LONDON, May S.-The following man.
ifesto Of the Land League was adopted
this afternoon at hurriedly summoned
meeting at Westminster Palace Hotel:
To The People of Ireland:
On the eve of what seemed a bright future for
our country, that evil destiny which has appar-
emily pursued us for centuries has struck at our
homes another blow, which cannot be exaggerated
in its disastrous consequences In this hour OF
sorrowful gloom we venture to give expression to
our profoundest sympathy with the people of Ire
land in the calamity that has befallen our cause
through this horrible deed, and with those who
determined, at the last hour, that the policy of
Cancellation should supplant that of terrorism and
national distrust. We earnestly hope that the
attitude and action of the Irish people will show
to the world that an assassination, such as has
startled us almost to abandon hope for
our country's future is deeply and relig-
iously abhorent to their every feeling and
instinct. We appeal to you to show
by every manner of expression that amidst the
prevailing feeling of horror which the assassina-
ton has excited no people feel so deep detesta-
ton of its atrocity deep sympathy with
those whose hearts must be scared by it, as the
nation upon whose prosperity and reviving hopes
it may entail consequences more ruinous than
those that have fallen to the lot of unhappy Ire
land during the present generation. We feel
that no act that has ever been perpetrated in our
countrp during the exciting struggles of the past
fifty years has so stained the name of hospltabe
Ireland as this cowardly and unprovoked assas-
the murders of Cavendish and Burke are brought
to justice that the stain will sully our country
name
