Tho Carlow Election Has Not Decreased tn
Bitterness Against Mr.. Parnell

Tho Carlow Election Has Not Decreased the
Bitterness Against Mr.. ParnelI.
The Carlow election in ireland has not
allayed any Of the bitterness between the
two Irish factions. 1t is said that John Clancy.
the sub-sheriff of Dublin, has threatened to
punish Tim Healy for his foul abuse Of a
woman. meaning Mrs. Parnell, and that an en-
counter between the two is not unlikely. Healy
now alludes to Mrs. Parnell kitty o Par
nell, and he seldom mentions Mr.. Parnell
without adding some vulgar allusion to his
wife. The Parnellites say there is q story re-
garding Healys abuse of Mrs. Parnell which
will make a sensation if ever made public.
The brewers and licensed vicrualers are
forming a strong combination throughout the
United Kingdom to uphold their interests in
face of the recen; decision. which declares that
magistrates may refuse to renew license with
out giving any reason for such refusal.
1t is expected that the lord mayor will re-
ceive the decoration Of the red eagle from the
kaiser in recognition of the hospitality OF the
city of London, through its representatives.
A Rio Janeiro dispatch says that there is a
growing public desire to renew the allowance
to Dom Pedro, the ex-emperor, on the same
terms and for the same amount AS when he alb
dica ted the throne. This allowance has been
withheld on the ground that Dom Pedro had
not abandoned his claim to the throne and was
still at work in quiet way trying to renew his
power in Brazil. For some time past il has
been evident that Dom Pedro had altogether
surrendered any idea of the restoration of mon.
archy in Brazil Therefore the movement to
renew his pension is rapidly gaining strength.
Cape Town advices state that the Portuguese
are much alarmed over the attitude of Gun
gunhams, the most powerful of the remaining
South Africa chiefs. Gungunhama, it is said,
has positively asserted that he would not recog.
nize the Portuguese authority, bus that be
means to be yassal of Queen Victoria. He has
with him q, 900 warriors OF the pure Zulu
breed, and of these 2, 900 arc armed with the
NIartini-Henri rifles. The others have the
short spear and the assegai. 1t would be diff
cult for Portugal to subdue Gungunhama by
force, without much greater expenditure than
the Portuguese treasury could now readily
meet, and the chief is defiant and threatening.
The theatrical season in London is fast
drawing to a close. and nobody seems sorry for
it. There have not been many great successes,
while there have been a great many failures.
The two great and only importantbvents Of the
week have been the royal Italian opera gala
command performance on "Wednesday night in
honor Of the visit of the Emperor and Empress
Of Germany, and the performance OF the
Golden Legend at Albert Hall on Thursday,
also in honor of the imperial visitors
The first of these events was q success In al
most every way the only drawback being that
at about midnight q large number OF people in
the stalls were compelled to leave before the
performance was over, leaving the imperial and
royal party sitting in state The emperor. it is
understood, was at first inclined to feel rather
hurt about this exiting, which naturally looked
as il an affront was being put upon their ma
jesties. 1t was explained to him, however, that

who were compelled to catch the last train
leaving London for the country. The Albert
