LAKES OF KILLARNEY.
Letter to the Editor of the London Times

Letter to the Editor of the London Times.)
The beautiful district known as the
Lakes of Killarney consists, as most
people know, of chain of lakes in
most picturesque setting of woods
and meadows, high hills and smiling
valleys. Practically the whole dis
trict belongs to two great proprietors,
the Earl of Kenmore and Mr.. Herbert
of Muckross. The estates of both
nave for generations been open to the
public, but OF late tolls have been
charged for admission to both estates,
an important matter as negativing any
public rights OF way or otherwise.
Unbappily, the connection of the
Herberts with their historic estate is
about TO cease; the agricultural land
has been sold to the tenants and in q
few weeks the mansion house and de-
mesne will be offered for sale. This is
very serious matter. The new pur-
chaser could do as he pleased with the
Lakes of Killarney. The public have
banks of the ladies', save possibly right
to embark and disembark at Ross Quay;
it is more than doubtful that they have
any rights on the water. The new ow
ner of Muckross could, if he so pleased, f,
shut out the public from Muckross Alb
oey, the Tore waterfall, Dlnis Island,
!he classic road through the Gap on
foot, and down the lakes by water. He
could cut down the woods, probably
close the middle lake-in word. wipe
out the Killarney lakes as one of the
worlds great backgrounds.
The Lakes of Killarney are, to put
them at their lowest, most valuable
asset of the Kingdom OF Ireland. Tney
attract to this countrysmany thousands
of visitors every year. and their fats is,
therefore, matter of national impor-
Iauce. All thinking people in this
country are of opinion that advantage
ought to be- taken Of the coming sale

ward to buy the Muckross estate and
thus secure the Lakes OF Killarney as
an inheritance for Ireland and a plea

ter has its political importance,
for no man can doubt that If
there existed in Ireland any Parlia-
ment or similar body it would never al

toned as possible price $50, 900. The
solicitors for the vendors "a firm of the
greatest eminence) have written to say
that no such offer would be entertain
ed, but the fact that such a sum was
generally mentioned shows that there
is nothing alarming about the financial
aspect Of the transaction.

a PARALLEL

Sometimes adown the city street.
Where beauty's a forgotten thing.
The voice OF some lone bird thrills
sweet
With tidings Of the far-off Spring.
So, in my heart, when all is dark,
And patience sickens to despair,
Hope flutters like a prison'd lark,
And pours her rapture on the air.
I cannot tell why this should be,
While sorrows cup is yet to drain,
And ev'ry pleasure comes to me.
Like storm-strewn roses, faw'd with
pain.
But we are one. the bird and l.
In suffering and yearning one
With memories that cannot die
OF flow'rs. blue ocean, and the sun.
