the people of England and ireland. If
the tenants of Ireland are to have their
debts RENTED, why not the tenants of the
rest Of the United Kingdom: There are
struggling and embarrassed farmers in
Scotland and England who would be very
glad to have the Government come to their
relief, and sponge off the slate for them.
There are landlords in England and Scot
lend who would welcome a proposal even
fol the scaling of their arrearages, if the
GoSernment would undertake to pay them
tbree-fourths of the amount. And then
thefe are the taxpayers who are neither
lapSlords nor tenants, but who may very
Naturally object to being made to pay the
,billa of both these classes. In short there
ara the germs OF infinite trouble and mis-
cGief in the new bill, and even though it
sthould go far towards pscifying Ireland, it
may nevertheless prove to have been an
almost fatal mistake.

THE ARREARS OF RENT BILL.

So far as can be gathered from the i'm
perfect descriptions of the measure which
have been telegraphed, the arrears of rent
bill appears to offer the most important
advantages to the Irish tenant farmers,
though at cost to the Government of very
dangerous concessions. 1t is said that its
effect will be to lift some 300, 600 tenants
out of perfect Slough of Despond, by re-
lieving them Of the hopeless burden of
from ten to fifteen years arrears Of rent,
which they never could have paid, and
which made them helpless, and little better
than serfs. The relief will, it is said, ex-
tend altogether to nearly 600, 900 tenants,
representing $500, 900 souls. 1t will give
all these people fresh chance in life.
They will start out free from debt, SO far
as rent is concerned, and with the amount
of one years rent in their hands. Such a
measure can only be characterized as revo-
lutionary. 1t will change the condition of
more than half the Irish people, and, in
conjunction with the Land Act, it ought
to enable them to assume an entirely new
and greatly improved position. It would
seem that with the complete accomplish.
ment of the changes involved in this most
radical measure the principle grievances
of Ireland must cease to exist. Causes of
dissatisfaction no doubt will remain 80
long as home rule has not been granted,
but the important point is that
these grievances will thenceforward be
solely political ones, and will not be COM
plicated by questions of popular suffering,
indulgence and debt. OF course if the ten
ants do not help themEelves they can easily
drift back into their former embarrass-
ment. The Government cannot prevent mel
from getting in debt, though it may pay
their debts. But when the best is said
that can be conceived for the possibilities
of the Irish situation, the Government has
still another great difficulty to encounter,
and that is the effect Of this measure upon

THE GENUINE COUNTERFEIT BONDS.

The Government and Treasury Depart.
ment may well be agitated if the report be
true that impressions of the plates from
which the bonds are printed have been
procured by counterfeiters. and nobody
knows how many bonds struck off by them.
For it is evident that if this is the case it
will be almost impossible to distinguish be-
tween the true and the false bonds. Being
struck off from the same plates they must
be identical, and we suppose that the coun.
terfeits could only be detected by pain.
full tracing up of the disposition and
numbering of the genuine ones. Even
discovery of Implications would not af-
ford any clue, since it would then be next
to impossible to determine which Of the
duplicates was the real bond. Nor can the
Government have any guarantee that it
has got to the bottom of this business, for
no matter how many Impressions OF the
dies may be surrendered or discovered, it
is always possible and even probable that
as many more have escaped detection or
been withheld. 1t is highly improbable
that the men who had such "bonanza
would be willing to give it up, especially
as they must be fully aware of the Govern
ment's helplessness. And it is evident
that the effect of this most alarming dis
covery upon the bonds themselves must be
very serious. 1t appears that copies, or to
speak more correctly, duplicates, OF bonds
have been struck off in unknown quaint.
ties, and that the makers of these du-
plicates still hold the dies. The
Government cannot ascertain how many
duplicate bonds have been put on the mar
ket, nor can it put a stop to the duplica-
ton of these bonds. 1t is therefore posi-.
BILE that the holders of all such bonds may
be panic.struck, and that they may depre.
ciate, and it is difficult to see what course
the Government can take in the circum-
stances. Should Congress be appealed to
to protect the issue by guaranteeing the pay
ment of all bonds OF that issue-a resort
which might be thought necessary because
of the impossibility of distinguishing the
false from the true bonds-this measure
would perhaps only serve as premium
upon counterfsiting, since it would secare
a market for as many new duplicates as the
forgers could make. The situation appears
to be the most serious that has ever &C.
CURED in connection with the Government
securities, and it does not seem that the
Treasury Department is at all confident OF
its ability to cure the evil. Two absolutely
indispensable factors are lacking, viz,
knowledge of the number of bonds dupli.
Gated, and assurance as to the cessation
of the business. At present, in fact, the
counterfeiters hold the trump cards, and
the Government detectives have nothing in
their hands. How this will end it is i'm
possible to conjecture, but it is already ap-
parent that it may produce very serious
and mischievous complications.

A BUNKo MANS POLICY.

The rascal who decoyed the venerable
Charles Francis Adams into his den, and
then swindlsd him out of checks for S20,-
600, has been put on trial, no doubt
greatly to his surprise, and not little to
the shaking of his favorite theory. Ac.
cording to his own confession he had been
for long time practicing the same kind of
fraud upon well.connected and highly.
respectable persons. He did not attempt
to persuade them that they were not being
robbed, but boldly relied upon their fear
of what society would say of them, to OBJ
tain his plumber. 1t appears that his
knowledge of the weakness of most men
under such circumstances had stood him
in good stead until he tried the trick on
Charles Francis Adams. He then discov.
cred that John Quincy Adams was in no
way disposed to pay $50, 900 for the priv.
lege of keeping his fathers name out of
the papers, and that on the contrary he
was very firmly resolved to arrest and
prosecute the impudent scoundrel who had
the hardihood to come to him with
a demand for the money. This case
shows, however, what indeed has
never been secret to shrewd observers,
that for the most part swindler can safely
trade upon the fear men entertain of pub
lie opinion. Here is bunko.steerer
who hardly took any trouble to deceive his
victims, being confident that if he once got
them into his den, and had induced them
to play at some of his swindling games,
they would submit to blackmail rather
than have the fact known. No doubt in
most cases it is mere egotism that makes
men submit to these frauds. They cannot
endure that their friends should have the
opportunity of laughing at them, or should
be given reason to think lightly of their
sagacity. This the "bunko. steerer "
knows, and he traffics securely upon the
frailties of mankind. John Quincy Adams,
however, has shown how to deal with this
class of cases. Before a resolute purpose
the swindler is defenseless, and then his
turn for punishment arrives, as in the
present instance.

TIE Judge Of the Superior Court Of Alameda last
week took occasion to read jury severe lecture,
telling it that its verdict was in utter disregard Of
the law and the facts and that he could conceive Of
no reason in the world for such verdict by jurors
under oath. The winning attnrneY protested at
this, and the Judge fined him 500 for contempt,
and he had to pay it or go to Jail This yigor and
bravery on the part Of Court will have tendency
{, impress upon jurors that arbitrary action by
them shall not hereafter pass unrebuked, and while
they have the power to find as they please, that
there are Courts brave enough to critcise them as
they deserve 1t is becoming too common thing
for juries to find verdicts arbitrarily and without
much reference to the facts, and to ignore the moral
and legal obligations of the oath.
