A SCANDAL OF THE FIRST MAGNITUDE

DUBLIN, August 1S.-The Pail Mall Ga
zetts says Mr.. Grey's sentence looks worse to
day than it did yesterday. II is now ques
ton whether Mr.. Gray, as a journalist, has
not been instrumental in unearthing a grave
scandal. We do not believe there is single
English journalist who would not have
called attention 10 such report as that
spoken of by Mr.. Grey. That Mr.. Grey
should be in Jail is a scandal of the first
magnitude.
A dispatch to the Pail Mall Gazette, from
Dublin, states that the speeches delivered at
the banquet given 10 Mr.. Parnell sitter The
conviction OF Gray have been submitted to
the law officers for decision as TO whether
any action should be taken upon them.
O'Gorman Mahon, member of Parliament
for county Glare, in his speech on that occa-
sion, compared Judge Lawson TO Jeffreys.
and pointed out that the former had mar
rowly escaped beipg torn TO pieces by sn in
dignant people. Mr.. Healy, member of Par
lament for Wexford borough, denounced
Judge Lawson with similar violence.

Subscriptions are flowing in toward the
