members OF Parliament, who have been un-
dergolng sentences Of ak months imprison-
Rens Rsrry ios ,n 1esln tne tenants Of tte Smith
OF rents, were released from Galway Jail at
9 % O'Clock this morning. Messrs Dillon
ana ,O'Brien showed but slight traces
Of confnsment ngGsa IL jaI from TbsS rIsSTs SSTs
enthusiastically received. The Parnellites
expect the two gentlemen TO join issue with
them, but the McCarLhyites seem TO be conf
dent that they viii side with the anti Parnell-
lies. General opinion Is that the two re-
leased leaders will take a middle or concil-
iat0ry course, and that their combined efforts
will be directed towards healing the differ
ences existing and reorganizlng the Irish
parliamentary party as promptly as possl-
BILE, so that at the approaching general cleo
tion the Irish party may show a united
front to the enemies OF Ireland. These two
gentlemen, since the fall OF Mr.. Parnell and
the announcement that Justin McCarthy's
health would not permit him to continue
leading the Irish forces, have been looked
upon as the real leaders Of Ireland.
