VICTORIA 1." . .  • Lresia continue in the south in connection with the Dublin murders. Four persons have been arrested since Saturday, but there is no reason to think that any of the real offenders have been secured. A man who gave the name of Dowdall was arrested on Monday morning on the arrival of the Dahlia train. His face bore marks of a etruggie, but he stated the injuries were caused during it row in the railway carriage on his journey front Waterford. He has been remanded. The other arrests comprise Patrick Price, arrested in the Cork Workhouse, and remanded for inquiries • Michael Cronin, taken near Killarney, and remaaded ; and Daniel Nolan, arrested at Kinsale, but since discharged. These incidents only serve to show the extraordinary vigilanA of the constabulary, and that if the murderers attempt to leave Dublin their eliances of escape will be slight. It has been telegraphed to New York from England that the four murderers of Lord if. Cavendish and Mr. Burke are believed to be on board the Cunard steamer Scythia, which left Liverpool on Saturday, the 6th inst., the day on which the murders were committed, and is now nearly due at New York. A body of selected United States marshals have gone out in a revenue cutter to meet the steamer and effect the arrest. Much secrecy has been observed about these arrangements; but the report is well founded. The Lord Lieutenant on Tuesday received deputations from the Senate of the Dublin Univeraity and the Queen's College of Physicians, in reply to one of the addressee, Lord Spencer expreseed his determination to use every means to root out the evil which had caused desolation to many Irish homes and which had culminated in the fearful tragedy in Phcenix Park. Ile added that this was a time when the vigorous but just administration of the law by the tiovernment was especially requisite. . . .  At the meeting on Tuesday of the "Association for the Relief of Ladies in Distress through nonpayment of rent in Ireland," no reference whatever was made to the Government bill, and small hope was expressed of improvement in the condition of the country. The tone of the speeches of the Archbishop of Dublin (Dr. Trench), the Archdeacon of Meath), the Recorder of Dublin, Professor Jellett, and the Irish Vlas-Chanceiler was that the tenants could pay but wonld not, and that the distress of these ladies was mainly des to the Land League. lu the report occurred the following passage : " The no rent agitation and its pernicious influence still exist, and the homed of thousands are in consequence invaded by want, disease, and even death itself." This association has diatributed over £12,000 amongst the most deserving objects. Of this sum £13,000 came from the Lord Mayor of London, to whom, and to Lady FitzwiLliain, great praise was accorded for tkeir efforts on behalf of these poor ladies. Large numbers of the auxiliary constabulary force, which is being raised from selected men of the Army Reserve, are arriving daily in Limerick for duty in the county, and also In Clare, for the purpose of protecting Boycotted landlords and their families. The military who are now engaged on protection service will revert to their different regiments on being relieved by the auxiliary police. cardinal lifAlabe arrived at Kingstown on Tuesday evening. lid Eminence, replying to an address from the Town Commissioners, said their unhappy country had already laid to her charge many black agrarian crimes against life and property ; but these could be traced back to the unholy promptinga of vengeance for some real or imaginary wrong. In the case of the two gentlemen who were assassinated in Phamix Park, no such provocation could be alleged, and their mender must be regarded as an atteuipt to overawe all authority. It was the duty of every mm,, no matter what may be his creed or his political sympathies, first to lend his hearty aid to the detection of those wicked criminals who have brought sorrow unutterable on two unoffending families, and cast a dark shadow on the fair fame of Ireland; secondly, to use all his influence in guarding their poor fellow-countrymen from the , dangers of being drawn into secret societies; and thirdly, to sustain by whatever influence tie might possess that authority which is designed by the ' Almighty to be the foundation and safeguard of society.
