| Of District Inspector LOwndes, proceeded
to the islands of Innisturbot and Innis-
bark for the purpose of collecting poor
and seed rates, as well as to make seiz-
! ures for arrears of rates due. Her majes-
tvs gunboat Albacore conveyed the poor
rate collector and his protection party to
the islands, the inhabitants OF which
usually make show of resistance when
the collector appears among them. On
this occasion the collector seized a pig
and three donkeys; but the seizure
proved abortive, because the boatman
stoutly refused to convey the animals to
the mainland, stating that he was only
employed to convey the collector and his
party, and that he had made no arrange
ments for carrying pigs and donkeys.
The Galway town commissioners have
adopted unanimously a resolution, which
they have directed to be forwarded to
Lord Lansdowne, the secretary OF state
for war, expressing regret that he has
again sanctioned the issue OF foreign
grown meat for the use of the troops
serving in Ireland, and asking him to
consider the advisability of introducing,
forthwith, live meat contracts through
out ireland. They also call his notice to
the manner in which the supplies for the
canteens of the several regiments in the
Galway district are obtained. BY the
system now in use this trade is almost
entirely in the hands of a favored few.

On Nov. 10, there passed away, at
Rathduff, typical Irishman, and a gen.
uine specimen of the "old stock in hte
person of Mr.. Patrick Kearney, who had
attained the patriarchal age of 81 years.
Deceased, during his long life, enjoyed
the good wishes of his neighbors and the
esteem of all who knew him. The funer-
al took place on the 18th, the interment
being in Castletown cemetery, and the
large concourse of neighbors and friends,
as we'll as the representative contingent
from Dundalk, which followed the re-
mains to the grave, afforded unmistak-
able evidence Of the steem in which the
deceasd was held.

MONAGHAN.

Late in October the tenants on the es-
tate of Lord Plunkett, Protestant arch
bishop of Dublin, who reside in County
Monaghan, forwarded a memorial to
their landlord seeking substantial re-
duction in rent. In letter from The
agents, in Dublin, the following reply is
given: "The tenants, in the exercise OF
their rights, went into court to have
judicial rents fixed, and having of their
own motion brought the matter before
the courts, the decision invoked by them
bound them and the landlord, and both
: parties have to abide by it; $50 that at
the forthcoming rent audit the tenants
are expected to pay their judicial rents
as fixed by the court" )

DERRY.
For the first time in over two hundred
years, the recent municipal elections in
Derry resulted in the return OF no less
than four Catholic aldermen and twelve
Catholic town councillors. A representa-
ton of sixteen in council numbering
forty is still WIDELY inadequate to the
requirements and equities of the situa-
ton. But that Catholics and National
lists (including some of the largest rate
payers) should have been wholly de-
prived of representation in the past is
fact to make one ponder on the causes
of Irish discomfort At the present mo-
ment there is not, on the Belfast corpor-
alton, nor on the town council OF Ar
magh, single Catholic. We may hope
! however that the example set in Derry
will, next year, be followed and bettered
by the primatial city and the great COM
mercial capital Of the North. The Ma
tionalists of Derry have done we'll.
