ing take, but by NO means so profitable.
Instead of splendid haul of mackerel,
as was supposed by the drag on the net,
over 1000 pufins were hauled on board.
Like the aies in::the apothecary's pot, no
one can tell how they got there; but
there they we're, encumbering the deck,
eome alive and some dead. When the
fishermen tried to clear the nets the live
birds pecked their hands, and it took the
fishermen several hours to clear the nets.
The birds were sold simply for their
feathers, and proved by no means re-
numeratiye take when compared with
the behring's caught by the sister vessel.
KERRY.
At the last Quarter Sessions, before
County Court Judge Shaw, Miss Lizzie
O'Shaughnessy, mistress of the Female
National School, Knightstown, Valentla
sued Mr.. Alex. Bremner, also of Valentia,
for SANDER, by circulating report that
a pupil of the school died from the effects
of punishment received there. Evidence
having been given, the Judge said the
plaintiff had thoroughly vindieated her
character, and he would give damages for
ESQ and costs against the defendant.
KILDARE.
A Nationalist convention was held at
Kildare, on October 25th, under the
craftsmanship of M. j. Minch, NJ. P.
Speeches were delivered by Mr.. Ken
needy, NJ p, Mr.. Kilbride, NJ. p, Rev.
Father Kinsella, p. p, Rev. Father
Hughes, Adm, and others, dealing with
the question of the evicted tenants, and
calling attention to the recent treatment
of the Clongory tenants in the Revision
court. A noteworthy feature of the con-
ventlon was the speech of Father Kin
sella, who has fought for his people and
suffered with them. He was subjected
to illegal Imprisonment by the Coercion
ist Government for providing shelter
for the evicted tenants, and he was a
witness Of the incendiarism that reduced
the homes of Clongorey to ashes. Yet,
with the full view of speedy relief for
lis people through the land, he was so
anxious for the thorough reconciliation
of ali classes in Kildare that he WAS will
ling to let bye-gones be bye-gones, and
would prefer voluntary settlement be-
tween landlord and tenant on the inter
vention of number of Kildare gentle
men. But an honest settlement is what
the Tory landlords of Kildare do not
want; it would tell too heavily against
them.

of seventy-fve, and had been i'll bat tor
very short time.
