lawyers in the country — one a democrat and the other a republican have been sought by friends of the vice-president and will be presented to his notice at an early day all the persons present at the conference were unanimous in the opinion that it wa ttle duty of mr arthur to assume control it is said on good authority that postmas ter general james ami secretary lincoln who would carry the war

pounds the srelesa locomotive is thus charged with water capable of giving oft a quantity of steam sufficient for a mod crate journey ( if course the pressure of steam given off is very great aud

lias at last been pass ed by both lords and commons and a great step has been taken toward remedy ing the evils from which ireland has so long suffered however like most compromise ineasnrcs it is wholly satisfactory to no body and least of all perhaps to those for whose benefit is intended the funda mental principle of the bill is the right of free sale the irish land system being partly codified and partly rearra.-ged in such a way as to give the tenant a marketable pro city in his h tiding independent of anv improvements which he himself may have made the other two f's i e the guar antees of fair rent and fixity of tenure arc deduced from the right of free ah in the passage of the bill through parliament it bus undergone notable alterations some of them being of considerable importance one is that the commission of three may utilize the services of the county courts another that no member of parliament shall at the same time be a member of the com mission charged with carrying the provis ions of the bill into effect a third secures to owners their game right a fourth se cures the landlord pay for the improve ments he h is made i:i case a holding is sold the fifth declares that deductions shall be made from the receipts of a sale for deterioration of the landlord's property when the bill reached i he lords it suffered numerous amendments all of which were set

country in a general election the conservatives would tome out victorious over the party at present in power the immediate r nit of the lord firmness was a partial victory for the oppo nents of the bill as mr gladstone on the return of the bill to the house of commons assented to three of the lords amendments — one authorizing an appeal t the b_nd court in the matter of leases another giving a landlord access to the land court when he failed to come to an agreement with bis tenant and the third striking out mr par nell n :. ure for staying proceedings of ejectment whin the land court has
