Dir. Dillon and Mr.. ParnelI,

1t is now we'll understood that upon tho
assembling Of Parliament Mr.. JOHN DILLON
Will replace Mr.. JrsTIN MCCARTHY in tho
leadership OF by far tho larger section OF the
irish Nationalist party. He has not yet pub
Iicly SGT forth his reasons for repudiating
Mr.. PARNELL after teleGraphng assurances
OF his support TO the IIenster Hall meeting,
but no promises to make declaration on
the subject at an early date. Meanwhile lie
Eas been subjected to some criticism at tho
hands OF Mr.. PARNELI. in a speech at Thurcs
on Aug. 2. To this criticism Mr.. DILLON re-
plies In an interesting communication to tho
Dublin National Press.
ATr. DILLON begins by pointing out that
SlI fourteen years he followed Mr.. PARSELL
with undertaking loyalty. he was an en-
:hmsastic supporter OF Mr.. pARNELL at IL
time when the LITTER had fnw adherents in
ireland, and when the vast majority of those
who are now his noisiost partisans were bit
ter!y oppoeed to him. In q word. Mi. Dill
LON thinks that he may say without boast
inx that there "a no living Irlshmsn who did

II was high time the boom went out OF

again they will be just as big and prosperous

and without the boom they will attain the

moro than lie did to make Mr., PARSELL tho
lender Of the Irish people. Such being tho
case, he recognizes the right OF tho irish to
demand tho grounds on which he now re-
jccts the leadership Of his former friend, and.
rs we have said, he pledges himself to state
those grounds fully at no distant time.
He considers 1t important, however. to
correct n misstatement Of Mr.. PARNELL's
in the speech at Thurlcs. Mr.. DILLON was
there quoted as having said that II the
Liberal party did not within twelve months
bring In Homo Rule bill OF a satisfactory
character. he should declare against them.
He now denies that he ever said anything
which would bear that construction. What
he did say was that he was in favor of Civ
Ing tho earliest possible opportunity to Mr..
GLADSTONE and tho Liberal party to intro
duce the Home Rule bill; that II their bill.
when produced, WINS satisfactory, II would
put an end to tho troubles of Ireland; but II
1t was not satisfactory TO tho national senti-
ment Of tho Irish people, he, DILLON. would
be the first man to declare against the
Liberal party.
In the Same speech at Thurles Mr.. PAR
NELL had asserted He Mr.. DILLON said
he was In favor OF driving tho present low
eminent ont Of office as quickly as possible:
SO nm l" To which Mr.. DILLON rejoins
that, although Mr.. PAENELL mny make this
statement now, such has not been his policy
during the last eight months. Mr.. DILLON
snys he will undertake on an early occasion
to prove that the policy to which Mr..
PARSrLn invited tho Irish people in
his manifesto and In the speeches mado
by him since the beginning OF tho
last session OF Parliament, was one OF
deadly hostility to tho Liberal party. 1t was
policy which had for Its object to break up
that party and to give Mr.. BALEouR new
lease OF power. In Mr.. billions judgment
nothing can 10 more certain than that, had
Mr.. PARSELL succeeded in inducing the
l.oh people to follow his leadership during
the last eight months. tho United Kingdom
would now be In the throes OF a general
election, with the absolute certainty Of CIV
ing the Tory Government another term OF
Office and extending the Coercion act for
seven years. II, as bIr. PARNELL now AYERS.
the Liberals are certain Of winning the next
general election, this fact-so Mr.. DILLON
tells hints not due to any act Of his, but
is attributable to the results OF the Kilkenny.
Sligo and Carlow by.electons.
Finally, US regards tho Plan Of Campaign.
which Mr.. PARNELL had charged Mr.. Dill.
LON with starting behind his back, Mr.. Dill
LON reminds his former chief that ono OF his
principal present supporters, Mr.. T. HAIR.
R1NGToN. was the author OF that document.
Nor does he believe that Mr.. HARRINGTON is
in the least ashamed OF the part he took In
that transaction.
No one can read his letter to the National
Press without feeling that Mr.. DILLON is
abnndantly able to defend himself and the
cnuse OF which he Is to be the champion.
When he takes the stump against Mr.. PAR
NELL. the latter will encounter q foeman
worthy OF his steel.

Tho proposal to pension the emanclpated
negroes is urged By the Hon. FREDERICK
DOUGLASS for reason that on its face IL not
without plsusioility. The nation" no say g.
"as nation, has anned against the negro
1t robbed him OF the rewards OF his labor dur
ing more than two hundred years. and Its re.
pentancs will not bs genuine and complete
until. according to the measure Of is ability.
It shall have made restitution" Tho argument
sounds Just and reasonable until It 10 remem.
bered that the history OF civilization hns been
the record Of very slow and gradual evolution
from barbarism. and that 1t 10 wrong to Judge
one generation By tho ethical standard OF a
later generation. Each generation has to bear
tho burden OF its own sins against such light
- its own conscience affords 1t. and fortu-
nately Is not responsible for the sins OF the
past. Until tho millennium We shall have
enough to do 10 grieve for our own Individual
sins and repent OF them. instead Of having the
sins OF our fathers imputed to US. Slavery,
and belief in slavery. has been stage in
civilization. stage at which some nations
fingered over long. and that stage now in all
civilized lands Is passed forever. But It 10
as absurd to claim that this age owes in actual
justice IN indemnity. not sxacted by nature.
for tho slavery OF the past. as 1t would be to
urge that we should oil be imprisoned to-day
because our ancestors generally got drunk.
Nature exacts her own vengeance for such
ante natal crimes, and they are govt aud pow
erty and civil war.
