Mr. Parnell moved that the house ad- journ, that he might call attention to the ‘* Outrageous conduct of the authorities at Ennis on Sunday last in attacking people.” The conduct was partially an enforeement of martial law, and went beyond the powers conveyed by the Coercion Act.

Chief Justice—‘** Then you do not pose to do anything ?”

Mr. Hawke—'‘* No, Iam determined to pursue such a course in the future as_ will best affirm the principle 1 seek to main- tain.

As no attachmefit had been issued up to three o'clock this afternoon, Mr. Hawk left for home this evening.

There died recently in Wales Evan Davies, known as arch-Druid of Wales. He had attained the great age of 89, and had written several work on Celtic subject. The Welsh name of this antiquity was Myfyr Morganevg, and an English paper in noticing the fact of his death says ‘‘he was recognized head of the Druids who meet periodically around the famous rocking stone at Pontypridd.” Davies had pub- lished books on Druidism which he main- tained, was the true religion. From the scanty accounts of the Druids that have come down to us from the misty past it would seem that in so doing Davies broke one of the rules of the ancient Druids, which was not to put into writing any of their instructions.
