JOHN DILLON.
The IRISH LEADER, Now UNDER Prose
cUT1ON By THE GOVERNMENT.
Recorder.

Recently the Government of the
United Kingdom made up its mind to
put down the National League. It be-
gan proceedings towards CARRYING out
this design by arresting John Dillon,
the EST loved, perhaps, of all the Irish
Parliament ,ay leaders. His case has
been called in court, and adjourned,
the reason of this Icing, as is rumored,
that eminent lawyers have instructed
the Cove nmcnt tilat there is no law
existing under which he can I've con-
victcd.
Dillon has been exceedingly busy of
late, melting tenants to stand firm for
Z" fair rents and Tree homes" He is I'm
eloquent man, and his words have
great weight with the Irish people, who
reverence his superior ability and adore
lis amiablc character. Unlike most
Of his colleagues in the work or polit-
ic:l .yit I'll II, he is wealthy man.
He is the son of rebel of lS4S, John
Blake Dillon, who practiced law sub
sequcutly in New York, and afterwards
was a country gcntlemsn in ireland,
and sat in the Parliament House at
Westna mister. John was quiet and
| studious lad, delicate in health, as in
deed he is yet. His father gave him
superior education. After tie compile
ton OF his academic course, he studied
medic ne and holds diploma. Hav-
ing no need to earn money Us practice
ing doctor, he spends his time in writ
ing, speaking and attending the sessions
Of the louise Of Commons, always as the

JOHN Dillon has twice undergone i'm.
prisormcnt at the hands Of the Gov
arnmeat authorities. His health was
greatly injured by the confinement and
he was obliged III consequence, TO de-

Annual Carnival of the Turner Society
Last EVENING" Most Successful A fair.
The annual masquerade ball of the
Turner society is an event as certain as
the movements of the sun, moon and
stars. Since the organization of the So
ciety q night has been devoted with I'M
varying fidelity to carnival festivities
out of every three hundred and sixty-five
provided upon the calendar. Each year
these indulgencies have furnished mark
ed improvement over the last effort and
the annual masquerade now ranks
among the notable occurrences of our
local career.
So it is not surprising that
last nights meeting of the Tur-
ners ana their friends, under
the disguise of mask and costume, drew
together q large attendance of partici.
pants and spectators. The floor wa.
Gro wded with gally caparisoned dancers
and the galleries were filled with inter.
ested sight-seers. The exhibition was
one which more than filled the measure
of expectation. The costumes were
numerous, varied, rich and rare, or Iu.
%dicrously plain and absurd, the taste OF
the maskers furnishing a wide range Of
characters, covering the entire field Of
fancy and invading the domain
of grotesque tradition and the more
staid department of history. The mod
ern tramp and the ancient prince hob.
nobbed together upon terms of familiar
ity and the unkempt bag danced at
tendance upon fairy like beauty. II
was a medly of startling combinations
all accurately personlied.
At the conventional hour the masks
of the dancers were removed and theil
incognito was destroyed. This, how
ever, caused no cessation of merriment
and the dancers swung themselves
over the floor until past the small hours
of morning, when the party dishanded
and the carnival was over.
