Dublin Banquet.

DUBLIN, December 11.-At the banquet
to Parnell the room was crowded. Davitt,
in response to the toast "Ireland Nation"
said that, led by Parnell, they might
believe themselves on the road to herald
ing the freedom OF the Irish nation.
Lord Mayor>Dawson read an address to
Parnell.
PARNELL
was cheered several minutes. He referred
to the formation of the Land League, and
said, "Never was there movement
formed to contend against such a system
OF robbery and fraud, in the carrying out
OF which there was so much moderation
displayed and such an absence of crime.
There are 10000 soldiers and $1,000 police
in Ireland.
''TIrE LAW OF IIABEAs CORPUS
has been repeatedly violated, the most
significant example being when 1000 Irish
were imprisoned by Buckshot Forster. If
the Liberals wish the Irish to cooperate
with them, there must be no more coer-
cion.
IMMIGRATION.
1--WE regard any system of immigration we
have had yet in this country as murder
GUS blow against the life of our nation,
ferings on the part OF the victims. Three
fourths of the emigrants from Ireland
during the last year are compelled to find
homes in miserable garrets in New York,
Boston and Montreal. The proceedings
of the
''TUKES COMMITTEE
stand exposed as an indecent attempt to
assist the government to get quit of the
Irish difficulty by getting quit OF the
Irish people. If We are to be emigranted
or coerced, we prefer to have the dose adj
ministered by tories than by
EVOLVES IN sHEEP's CLOTHING
Wings. The present Irish Executive, is
characterized by greater meaness and in
capacity than any of his predecessors.
Earl Spencer came to Ireland as a sort of
inferior bottle-holder to Forster. We are
not surprised that Spencer should do his
best to initiate the most rabid coercionlsts
who ever came to Ireland, and that he
should desire TO give full play to the un-
bridled insults and passions OF the foreign
garrisons in Ireland.
''TREvELYAN's GREATEST AMBITION
is to prevent everybody from doing what
he has legal right to do. Instances are
the imprisonment of Harrington, the
seizure of the Kerry Sentinel, the arrest of
the editor, and the suppression of National
meetings in the North. Our rulers want
OF common honesty permits Harrington
to remain in p 'ison for an offense which
the men at Dublin Castle must know he
is innocent Of Allou experience in En-
glish dealings in Ireland results in the con-
clusion that the English are always will
ing to
'EMpLOY FORCE To THE FULLEST EXTENT
against the masses OF the people. With
regard to the question of including Ireland
in the extension of franchise our position
is strong and winning one. Whether
Ireland is included or not, we shall return
| about eighty members at the next cleo
ton. Although our present progress is
slow we are adding to the impetus given
10 the national cause in to-day's great
league movement. We must be patient
''IF WE WISH TO WIN.
| Coercion cannot last forever. Certainly it
rests with the Irish TO be determined at
/ the next general election, whether the
Liberal or Tory government shall rule
| England. This is the great force that, il
/ we can't rule ourselves we can cause
| England to be ruled as we choose We
are determined that this generation shall
not pass away until it has bequeathed
those who come after us the great right of
national Independence and prosperity

AT the chose of Parnell's speech, which
was greeted with great cheering, Dawson
