by parties of waggish or idiotic turn. A
dairy establishment here received big
free advertisement to day by the starting
of a rumor that Howgate was there CON
cealed, the rumor leading to a search of
the premises by the authorities. Other

in Virginia and Maryland, are sending in
communications claiming to be able to To-

Howgate's friends (and he is not without

THE IRISH LAND QUESTION.
A special to the World says: The policy
of the conservatives with regard to Ireland
has thrown the radicals into a sort of pan
ic. They exclaim that it is ''revolutiona-
ry." The main idea is to have the state
buy out all the landlords who are willing
to sell their estates on the basis of twenty
one years of the judicial rent (Which
ranges about 20 per cent. below the. rates
hitherto charged), land debentures bearing
4 per cent. interest being issued to the sell
lers, the state, of course, guaranteeing pay
ment of the debentures at maturity, and
the Irish church funds being made a part
of the guarantee. 1t is probable that the
amount of the actual cash required from the
treasury would be comparatively small, as
the debentures would be as good consols,
and would be gladly accepted by landlords.
The Spectator, which is manifestly alarm
ed, declares that 9300, 900, 900 would be
needed; but | have it on good authority
that the real amount wanted would not
exceed 920, ,0O0,0 600, and probably would
fall below this sum. 1t is proposed to deal
with arrears of rent on the same principle,
the state advancing money to pay off part
and the landlords remitting the remainder.

P. for Westminster The radicals dare
not oppose it, for they stand openly com
mitted to the central principle of the
measure. and the Irish people are reported
to be enthusiastically in its favor. No
compulsion would be put upon the land
lords to part with their property, but those
who wish to sell would be able to obtain
their prices, and have done with it. This
new departure leaves the government high
and dry, aud must cause deep and wide
sensation so soon as it is thoroughly un-
derstood throughout the country. AS for
the other problems presented in Ireland for
solution, the conservation would probably
be in favor of liberating the suspects, while
at the same time they would take energetic
measures to preserve order by strictly legal

posed to be worth some $4,000, 900, from
the widow OF. the deceased owner by turning
over to her the sum of $1,000,000 which
