1.-THE HERALD'l
To-day we feel like writing line on
,.s ,i+nation. or, rather, the present
80 ms of ireland, No one can deny
Iat the course being pursued, and the
, , nolicv adopted, by the Honorable
NJ Parnell, is an extremely wise one,
nd one which will guarantee to Ireland,
tbe honorable gentleman termed it,
MITE recently at Cork, a speedy return
- the aGrattan Parliament. We were

ms great speech advocating the right

I'D and Ireland, and not long
l S1nce we were much pleased to
laarn that such was now a law.
The immediate benefits accruing from
mis- law cannot be over estimated. It

pqrliament. Step by step, by peaceful
iog;fimate work, the Irish members have
Laen gaining concessions from England.
The natriotic work of William O'Brien,
n p. editor of the United Ireland is
also deeply significant. His advocacy
If the cause is noble and without a sem
Lance of seifshness. His charges against
the infamous doings of Dublin Castle
have resulted well, and the Home Gov
eminent has been compelled to institute

is now criminal. All this is the fruits
of quiet, persistent work. and no
violence or threatening were used.
TIL people of Erin repose great con-
fdence in their chosen leaders and only
from q certain element does anything
ike discord arise. To adopt and prose
cute an offensive legislative policy is The
Parnellite doctrine, and it is noble in
deed. Let us think for an instant and
consider Mr. Parnell. He is landed
proprietor in Ireland, His means arc
ample, and without any pecuniary aid,
he could live we'll; yet he has seen the
effect of misrule, and with that large
patriotic heart throbbing loudly in his
bosom for Erin's veal, he has espoused
her cause. He is another 0'Connell,
and all true Irishmen so regard him.
His life, his labor. his means, his ALL

Green Isle of the Sea.
This dynamite policy is not one cal
rulated to aid that island. 1t places
England on the defensive and will re-
suit in that great military camp of Ire
land-Cul ragh, kEldare-being the rem
devious for many thousand redcoats.
True, England's course with her many
is net. to speak sincerely,
very laudable or praiseworthy. Her
treatment of tbs Arabs, the wholesale
massacre of whem at Ell Teb and TeI-el
Kebir, now a year since, were the sub
iect of no little comment among Eng
Nshmen themselves. The sending of
Gordon, with a Church of England rlt-
val in one hand and a Bible in the ether,
to convert FL Mahdi and his supersti-
tous following was poor policy indeed.
The attempts to blow up the different
public buildings is the direct cause of
the imposition of heavier taxes; for it
necessitates large forces of detectives to
guard Her Majesty's interests. The
Just clamOrings of the Irish people are
last gaining fCE them the heartfelt svm-
pathy of all the civilized world. 1t is
