The Irish Agitators.

Leeds, 29.-Parnell started for
Cork at 8 o'clock this evening.
A public meeting was held in AL
bert Hall tonight, Thomas Power
O'ConnOr presiding. The chair
man apOlogiZed for Parnell's abb
sence, and explained that it was
due to his having contracted q
severe cold. Sexton then addressed
the audience. He said the immense
gathering before him proved the
truth of the saying that there was
a greater Ireland beyond the sea.
1t seemed as if the Irish had taken
peaceful possessioni of the British
Isle. The speaker reminded his
hearers that they were children Of
emigrants who had left Ireland in
tears. He solemnly asserted that
the day would come when the elect
of the Irish people would assemble
Oh College Green. The convention,
he said, had given fresh proof Of
confidence in Parnell.
Sexton declared that he cared no.
thing for the contempt Of English
men.
blggar next addressed the meet
ing. He said Irishmen were
not afraid of Tory government. In
some respects Tory rule would pay
the Irish. For instance, they would
profit from a foreign war.
After speeches by O'Kelly and
O'COnnor, the meeting unanimously
passed a resolution expressing con-
fdence in just leaders, pledging it
self to the policy in local parlia-
mentary elections best calculated to
promote the Irish cause, promising
the support of the executive, and
congratulating Ulster on it's cam
paign against landlordism and big
