Kilkenny, December 23-ln spite Of the
excitement caused during the past week
by the political struggle and though tho
actunl result OF the battle was practically
in doubt up to the hour OF noon to-day.
there was little or no excitement IN the
streets of Kilkenny this morning.
Peace and quiet, outwardly no least,
seemed 10 reign on all sides, the
streets being the quietest portions Of
the town. Opposite aud about the
courthouse a small crowd gathered. Par
nell, Harrington. Redmond. Sculy, Hem
messy. and Healy were inside the court
house at an early hour, awaiting the actual
announcement OF the result. Though tho
Paruellites claimed NJ TO the last moment
that victory WA -hovering oVor then ban
ners, the defeat of their candidate was VIZ
tually admitted long before the close OF
the polls yesterday.
10th SIDES DESERVE CREDIT.
In view of the almost vital importance 20
both sides Of the exciting political contest
lust decided both parties deserve great
credit for the fact that no collision took
place and that the last day OF the CAM
paien at least was conspicuous tor an
almost entire absence Of the personal
abuse which has recently boon exchanged.
During the morning, rs has been the case
since the polls closed, the door OF the
" cOuutlug-rOOm IN the COurt-NOu1f WIS
strictly guarded by police, but there was
no attempt 10 create any disturbance.
M'CABTHYITEs REJoICE.
DUnLH, December 23.-The first public
meeting Of the Mccarthy committee was
held here to-day. Everybody present was
filed with enthusiasm over the result OF
the recent contest IN Kilkenny.
RIVAL DEMONSTRATIONS.
DUBLIN, December 23.-The carriage Of
Archbishop Crook awaited Sir John Pope
Hennessy no Ihurles. The arrival Of Sir
John IN town was the signal for rival de-
monstrations by the two factions.
PARgELL's EXPLANATION.
DUBLIN, December o. Friendly demon
strations were made at most of the places
at which Parnel stopped on his journey
from Kilkenny 81 this city. He made
several brief addresses on the trip in which
he declared that the fight had not beun an
equal one. and that the electors had been
misled. But the fall Of the first fence, he
said. need not cause despair. His friends
had been forcihly prevented from doing
their part al Kilkenny, where 800 electors
voted blindly against him.
