Irish Mind.
A Dublin special to the Herald says ::
Great expectations are hanging upon
Mr.. Parnell's next appearance. His
first speech will probably be at the
Wicklow Convention on October 9th.
Mr.. Thomas Dickson, member Of Par
lament for Tyrone, the leader of the
Ulster Liberals, in letter to the Irish
Times, to appear tomorrow, says:
"For the Liberals of Ulster there was
no need on the part of Mr.. Chamber
lain or Lord Harrington for any decla-
ration regarding Mr.. Parnell's demands.
While We Liberals are willing to con-
cede the largest reform required from
an obnoxious government to Ireland,
we are prepared and determined, come
what may, to take our stand upon union
and the maintenance Of the integrity Of
Great Britain and Ireland"
AN AGRARIAN OUTRAGE.
This morning shots were fired into
the houses Of Cornelius Honrigan, a
farmer, and William Barrow. a bailif
on the estate Of Sir Henry Winston, at
Ballynacarta, near Dungarvan. Barrow
took an evicted farm and llOnrigan was
treated for another. Both men were
denounced at the National League meet
ing in the old parish last Sunday.
Grains Of shot were found in BarrOw's
bedroom, and the door Of Honrigan's
house was riddled. No one was injured,
because each Of the intended victims
was absent. Such occurrences have
hitherto been unusual in the County
Waterford.
TIE PERIL OF BOYCOTTING.
Yesterday at the Donaghadce licens-
ing sessions the police opposed the re-
newal Of the certificate of Thomas
O'Kcefe. a licensed publican, on the
ground that he had refused to supply
man named Kelly with drink, Kelly
having been boycotted for some time
before in the neighborhood. Consider
ing the good character Of the applicant,
the license was granted, although the
magistrates said The act Of the pub
lican in refusing to supply drink to
customer was one which might very
likely lead to breach of the peace. 1t
would be a dangerous precedent to lay
down that a publican could refuse
drink to a man or not as he wished"
BERATING AN EARL.
Mr.. Healy's recent violent speech at
Glengarig appears likely to get him
into trouble because Of his onslaught
on the landlords and agents in the
County Kerry, and especially on the
Earl of Bantry. "Now | ask" said
Healy, "who was Lord Bantry?" He
who owns every foot Of ground as
far as the eye can reach is
person who was drummed out Of
the British army for disgraceful con-
duct; aperson ofsuch low and miserable
disposition that, having enlisted as a
common private in the Guards. he had
himself expelled by order of the COM
mander-in-chef for being a ruffian.
Such is the man who has exercised
power and spread terror over the dis
trict for years past, and is one Of Eng
lands sacred idols.
MIR. HEALY's ARREST.
" 1t will be remembered that at one
time Mr.. Walsh and myself were ar
rested by Lord Bantry's agent, and
that my Lord had the audaclty to sit
upca the Bench of Magistrates and to
send us of to prison. [Groans.I AL
though dismissed from the army, Lord
Bantry had been Immediately appointed
to the Commission Of the Peace. Heis
now unable to show his nose in the
vicinity. He was in Australia BUSH
whacking while his agent here was car
rying out his commands"
PERHAPS COSTLY RHETORIC.
Lord Ardilaun, late Sir Arthur
Guinness, the brother-in-law of Lord
Bantry, has written letter to the
newspapers. which states that he has
written to Mr.. Healy asking if he is
correctly reported as to what he said
about Lord Bantry. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Healy will be prosecuted for
defamation.
