PARNELL ANp TRE PRINrE.

It Is TO be.hoped that whoever 4 nsti
gated the visit OF the Prince and I'rin-
cess of Wales to Ireland is satisfied with
the result OF his cunning device. The
result Of il thus far is q showing that
the Prince who is TO be titular King OF
Ireland can perambulate that island iu
peace only by the kind permission of the
actual King Of Ireland, Mr.. Charles
Parnell. That is the only moral TO be
drawn from the performance.
Even the influence of Mr.. ,Parnell has
failed to prevent several riots. The
loyal masses at Mallow were prevented
from expressing what the Poet Laureate
once described as ''their loyal passion
tor their temperate Kings" by the
troops and the police, who drove them
out of the station. Prevented from vel
coming their rulers, the dispersed Ma
tionalists gave vent to their feelings by
smashing the windows of houses that
were decorated in honor of :he riyal
visit.
No doubt Mr.. Parnell would have
prevented this riot if he could, butshis
power to allay disturbance is byl no
means equal to his power to promote it.
Perhaps the most curious testimony TO
the extent OF his influence was that Civ
en- by the Mayor of Dublin, when he vas
hissed by the crowd on Monday He
infoI med the assembly that she wedld
az once telegraph to Parnell at Corktnd
at Mallow an account of what hadoc-
CURED at Dublin, and that they would
then see what the result would b.
The actual "resHlt''was the lot At Nal I
low, but this probably is not what lhe
Mayor meant. He meant that the King.
that is to say the Boss of Ireland void
be displeased with their proceedings and
would testify to his displeasnre. III
Whether Mr.. Parnell fOresaw the rot
at Mallow or not, nobody can doubt that 4
if he chose to do so he could make aie1
visit Of the Prince and Princess OF Wabs
a continuous riot by giving signal lo4
that effect. If the visit has any pelih- Y
cal purpose it is that of coaxing the peD-
pie from their allegiance to Parnell. 1t /
has so absurdly failed of that purpde 1
Shat it is perfectly m anifest to every bniyf
that it can be effected only by Parnelfs i
forbearance. If not by his active inta-
ference, on behalf of the "honori I
guests of tue people of Ireland. Il !
might have been foreseen that this would !
happen. AS demonstration that Pal
nell is omnipc.ent in Ireland and thlt I
