‘ Lonpon, Dec. 18,

| Mr Thes. O'Connor, M. P., has just re- ‘turned to London from # tour of the Pro- ’

ti lvinces, during which he

| delivered many | }

ectures on the present condition of affairs n Ireland, and aima and objects of the and League, very much in the line of his graphic and absorbing paper in the last ‘Contemporary. He said to me that he be- “ieved the sttuation in Treland was most {grave and threatening, and that a bloody [Christmas was not at all improbable. In |his opinion the greatest danger was to be ‘apprehended in the West, where every | man is armed to the teeth, and where all jha ve revolvers, many rifles of the most ap- proved pattern, and no _ inconsiderable number carry both kind of weapons.

] I

The entire intereat of the hour is cen- tered in Ireland and the land question. f is clear to most people that the Queen’s Government no longer has an existence in the sister island, but has been superseded, at least for the present, by the Land League, whose decrees are now promul- gated in open day, executed with promp- titude and vigor, and respected implicitly. The League, as by the way it did in 1843, has opened its own ‘‘ Law Courts” for the

trial of cases and disputes, and the ordinary tribunals might as well be closed, becanse no witness. will appear to testify before them nor will any of their juries con

vict. The shopkeepers in the town who are obnoxious to the Land League are now ‘* Boycotted” relentlessiy.. Mr. Gladstone has gone Hawarden, and other members of the Cabinet have departed to their res- pective homes to spend a ‘* Merry Christ- inas,” leaving, alias, a most sorrowful Christinas to thousands in Ireland. Lon- don meanwhile is getting full of !rish refugees, and to-day a lady writes toa paper begging that some vacant sheds in South Kensington Museum may be set apart for the of her fellow exiles. Families that were comfortably off, or even rich, three months ago, are noW in actual poverty. Inthe clubs and London papers there is, as the cable informs you daily, a great outery against the inaction of the Government. The Radicals everywhere feel that the present events in Ireland are but a prelude to similar successful agita- tions against landlords in England.

use

A despatch from Dublin to the Times says the loyal farmers and trades in many counties hitherte undisturbed, are yielding very reluctantly to the pressure put on them to join the Land League-and subscribe to its funds. In consequence of the re- fusal of Mr. Gladstone to assist Mr Boycott, the English public will be appealed to for aid. The Tires in a leading article this morning, says the Government’s last and most unnecessary blunder is Mr. Glad stone’s reply to Mr. Boycott’s demand for assistance by the Government, which is conceived in a spirit that will provoke much dissatisfaction. Public opinion cannot but be offended by Mr. Giadstone’s letter, which is devoid of natural sympathy and conceived ina spirit of pettishness against Mr. Boycott for having necessitated the employment of troops. Unsatisfactory as the action of the Government is, and un- able as they are to agree, we must retain them if for no other reason than that we should not change horses while crossing a stream. Itis to be hoped that they will brate themselves up when the time of legis lation comes, however limp may be their attitude as an Executive Government.

The following is the text of Mr. Glad- stone’s letter in answer to that of Mr. Boy- cott asking for Government assistance.

To Mr. Charles Boycott :—

Mr. Gladstone has received your letter of the 8th inst. He desires me to say that he is not sure in what way he is to understand your request for assistance from the Crovernment. It has been very largely afforded you in the use of public force. Beyond this it is the duty of the Government to use its best exer- tions in the enforcement of existing law, which they are endeavoriag to enforce throughout the courts and by asking, when necessary, the assistance of the Legislature to amend or enlarge the law, a matter of much importance, on which you can of course only receive information together with the publie generally.

SRYMOBR.

Capt. Carey, who became widely known in connection with the death of the French Prince [imperial, in South Africa, has de- termived to joim the transport service, leaving his regiment, the 98th, and ceasing to be a conibatant ofticer.

Rev. Messrs. Pelham, Dale and Enraght, the cler, ymen who were recently imprison- ied by order of Lord Pensance, of the Court ‘of Arches, for ritualistic practices, have been released, pending an appeal to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.

The Queen went to Osborne House, isle lof Wight, to-day. Mr. Gladstone was her guest at Windsor Castle on Thursday, and it is to be hoped satisfied his Royal enter- tainer that Ireland was still under her rule. I hear that many appeals have been made to Her Majesty from Irish ladies.

It the Marquis of Ripen is compelled to ' -eturn from India on account of his health, it is supposed that the Earlof Dufferi, ‘now Ambassador to the Court of St. Pet- ersburg, will be asked to succeed him.
