Boston, Sept. 26.-A large audience gath
cred at the Massachusetts, Reform Club to-
night to greet Henry Watterson Of the
Louisville Courier-Journal, who delivered
an address on the political issues of the day,
including the Tariff Bill and the Elections
Bill.
Mr.. Watterson introduced his speech by
saying: Two dangers seem to me at this
time 10 threaten the integrity of the Union
and the prosperity of the people. One of
these is the gospel of force. and the other
is the doctrine of protection. The first is
expected to hold the country, whilst its fel-
low skins it; and to both the Republican
party has committed ITSELF"
Referring to the crusade of the extremists,
the speaker said that there existed at the
North body of public men who were con-
tinualy ascribing to the white people of the
South character entirely foreign to them.
He claimed for the Southern people very
large degree of conservatism. In most of
the Southern States the negro was favored
by the laws regulating taxation and labor
and schools, and by the statutes relating to
crimes and punishments. He spoke of the
efforts of the people of Louisiana to stamp
ont the Louisiana Lottery and of the demes-
tic affairs of the South in general.
He reviewed protecton on from the stand
point of a war tariff, and said he could not
see how the people of the North. and par
ticularly of New England, with its need Of
cheaper processes aud larger markets, could
fear a reduction of the war taxes to peace
footing He warmly welcomed Mr.. Blaine
into the free-trade ranks, and reviewed
New England's danger from processes of
obstruction. He appealed from the poll
ticians of the Republican party to the good
women and men of the party, and said that
ten to one wnen you scratch rebel you
will find Yankee"
Concluding his speech, he said: "Gentle-
men, l am no politician. l want no Office.

Arbitrary Proceedings in The Trial O.
GBfien and Dillon.

DUBLIN, Sept. 26.-The streets of Tip
perary were tnronged with peoule until
late hour last night discussing the exciting
events of the day.
The situation this morning is much more
tranquil than yesterday. The streets are
still thronged with people laboring under
suppressed excitement, but there has been
no collision with the police. The authori-
ties are taking special precautions to guard
against the possibility of an outbreak. A
detachment OF soldiers Is assisting the police
in maintaining order.
The session of the court was of short
duration this morning. The presiding magis-
trate announced it would be impossible to
20 on with the cases, as the Judge OF the
County Court required the building, and it
would be necessary TO adjourn further pro-
ceedlngS until the afternoon.
Befure the magistrate could declare the
cou-t adjourned, Timothy Healey sprans to
his feet, and in the name of the defendants
offered an earnest protest against adjourn
ment. 1t is not right he urged, that the
magistrates in such a case should suit their
actious TO the convenience of the County
Court. The Judge of tAat tribunal should
be the one to yield instead of insisting on
the letter OF his rights in the premises.
Healey's protest was unavailing. AS soon
as he resumed his seat the court adjourned
until this afternoon.
When court reopened in the afternoon
Roman proceeded with his statement of the
crowns case against the accused men. He
read long extracts from speeches made at
various Nationalist meetings since the iu-
auguraton OF the plan of campaign.
William O'Brien chaffingly reminded
Roman that his ship was to sail for America
on thursday next. When court adjourned
Roman was still speaking.
Timothy Harrington made a strong protest
against the course being pursued by the
prosecution. The protest, however, had no
effect upon the court, and the present policy
of the prosecution will, 1t is generally be-
lieved, be maintained TO the end uf the
trials.
John Morley departed to-day for England.
