BRIEF FOREIGN NEWS.

In Parliament Oh the ed Mr.. Forster de-
Tended his course, previous to his resignation.
The prevention of crimes act was not &C.
copied before the release of the suspects
but he had advised it was urgent. But for
the Phoenix Park murders Ireland would
have believed Parrell supreme and would
therefore become ungovernable. Recent
league was connected with the outrages.
The public expected Parnell would have
elucidated this point. No mere disclaimer
would be sufficient. He chargnd Parnell
with heading the org ,niz alton which started
the agitation that promoted outrages and in
cited murder. Parnell had reaped advan-
tages from the agitation. He did not plan
outrages. O'Kelley shouted Its lie" sew
eral times. He was named for suspension,
made for Parnell. He did not move.
O'Donnell attempted to interpose during
the speech. and was ruled out of order.
In the British parliment on the 2lst, Sir
Herbert Maxwell, Conservative, appealed to
the Irish party to explain their attitude In
regard to the kilmainham disclosures

ward burgessess to attend meeting to sup
port the election OF Carey to the town coun-
Gil. He replied that he had no vote in the
ward, but if he had he We uld be glad tn ex-
ert his influence in favor of Carey, whom he
met the first time three weeks after the cleo.
ton had been held. He said il the same cir
substances arose tomorrow he would do
what he did before. O'Brien argued that crime
in Ireland was distinctly traceable to evict-
tons and tyrannical adm Illustration flaw by
Dublin castle officials. His speech was most
violent, and was cheered by few Parnell-
ties, while other members remained silent.
Minister Lowell, in London, held recep

Senate, Saturday, Feb "a.

Gov. Hubbard voted the bill reducing the
rate of interests on sales of public lands

forth in the veto message, being that the re-
troactive arrangement making the reduction

A lndicrous scene was witnessed some
wears ago in country church in Scot
land. The preccntor was burly fell
low, who followed the pillow during the
week, and whose only recommendation
for the post of psalmody-leader was the
possession of powerful lungs. The
paraphase, "Ho! We that thirst" had
been chosen, and the bucolic precentor
elected TO sing it to the music of the
"Old Ca common-metre hymn to q
long-metre tune. He began with stem
torian stolidity, never dreaming OF the
metrical precipice that lay Immediately
before him. The first line, "Ho
We that thirst approach the
spring." passed off without mishap.
Then came the second line, Where
living waters flow" No sooner had the
unfortunate precentor reached the last
word that he stood aghast at the fact
that there was more music but no more
words! With the despairing look of a
drowning man catching at straw, he
cast his eyes inploringly from side to
side, prolonging the vowelsound of the
last word into two groans of dismay, to
the remaining notes OF the line flow

into his seat with the air of BETRAYED

Tuesday, December IL, 1883.

SENATOR INGALLS, has introduced
three bills relating to public lands
which are designed TO materially sim
pity the operations Of the general
land Office and change several import
ant particulars in the method of ac-
curing title to public lands. The first
provides for ii repeal of the pre-emp-
ton laws, but authorizes second
homestead entry by persons who hav-
ing made one homestead entry have
ior any reason failed TO perfect that
title aIid who at the same time have
never made filing under the pre-
einption act. The second repeats the
timber culture law, but permits title to
be perfected in accordance with the
provisions of that law upon all claims
entered before the passage of the re-
pealing act. The third and last Of the
series proposes to amend the home
stead act by prohibiting Communication
Hereunder until two years have
elapsed from the date of settlement.
1t also repeats the provision of the
law under which local land offices are
authorized to receive ACCOMPLISHMENTS
and Immediately throw the claims
rclinquished open to entry. In effect
il requires all ACCOMPLISHMENTS TO be
forwarded to the commissioner of the
general land Office and be approved by
linn before the land IN question is
thrown open to entry. The effect of
this series of measures If they become
laws, will be to limit the amount of
public land n single individual can
secure to one claim of 100 acres. Land
may be secured after two years actual
residence thereon by paying SIS per
acre or after five years for nothing.
The provision in respect to relinquish-
ments is designed to put a stop TO the
practice of filing upon public lands aud
holding them tor the purpose of sell
ing them to incoming settler. Under
visiting laws any citizen may obtain
three claims, one each under home
stead, presumption and timber culture
laws. He secures the timber culture
claim without residence, and may
purchase presumption and homestead
claims after six months residence.
