The manifesto says: “Ireland has lost her leader, but the cause of lre- land's freedom remains, We duty to perform towards the living and the dead. of political interests and the honor and safety of your political canse. In an unfortunate hour a majority of the Irish representatives broke from our ranks, abandoned the flag of independent op- ition, and ranged themselves as fol- owers and satellites of a British states man. We who address you refused to become parties to this treason and, rely- ing on the national convictions, main- tamed intact our allegiance to the Inde- pendent National party of Ireland, con- vinced that our people would justify and support us, “The great leader is dead, but the canse still lives, and relying on your de- votion to Irish nationality we propose to carry on the struggle until the princi ples for which we lived and died have triumphed, and a natienal unity has been restored around a pariiamentary party pledged to work for Ireland under the flag of an independent op position and absolutely free from the control of any foreign party or power. “This is our resolution. Its enforce ment dependeon you. In involves sacri- fices and struggles. We call on you two make them. “True to our principles, that we are the representatives and instrument of the people, we have resolved to call to- ether a convention of representative rishmen to discuss in the name of the pation the means by which we can best carry out the policy and the programme which he bequeathed us in dying. “To oar ranks we shall welcome all honest men who believe that the polit- jcal affairs of Ireland should be con- trolled and directed by the Irish people and by them alone, “Bat as to the men immediately re- sponsible for the disruption of the Na- tional party, who in obedience to for- eign dictate, have loaded with calumny and hounded to death the foremost man of our race, we can have no fellowship and guidance and Ireland can have no safety. “Between them and the men who stood true to the cause of National in- depence, Ireland must choose on the threshold of the tomb of the leader who we mourn.” This manifesto was signed by twenty- eight out of thirty-one of Parnell's col- leagues. W. A. Macdonald, Colonel Nolan and James Daly were absent. Sweeping Sabbath Reforms, Pirrssura, Oct. 13.—Rev. William F. Crafts, D.

Mr nell i rapidly ners Gistie the watchword, homestead.” The land league was founded Oct. 21 of that year, and Parnell was Ma first president. lu December he visited this country, and was re. ceived everywhere with enthusiasm. Large sums were contributed to relieve Irish dis. tress and to support the land league. He re. ceived the rare honor of an invitation to ad. dress the national house of representatives, At the epeniag of the parliamentary session in 1851 the govermaunont leaders brought in a coercion act. At the same time was intro. duced a bill creating the land commission and empowering it to fix falr rents between ten- ant and landlord, whieh should not be dis. turbed for fifteen yeas. Mr. Parnell and the other Irish leaders resolved that the ten ants who adhered to the land league pro- gramme should keep out of the new land court until a number of wuitable cases were brought forward as a test under the skillful direction of the lawyers of th. league The immediate resnls was the arrest, on Oct. 13, of Mr. Parnell and his principal col jeagues under the coercion act, and their in. oarceration in Kilmainham jail, in Dublin. At the same time arrests were made in all partaof Ireland, until the jails were full of “suspects.” Captain O'Shea now became prominent ae an intermediary between the Gladstone min. fatry and Mr. Parnell. The Iatter pledged himself, if released from prin, to do his best to moderate the violence of the extreme wing of hisparty. The cabinet determined there upon to release Mr. Parnell and his friends, and Mr. Forster, who dissented, resigned his secrotaryship. Early in May, 1882, Lord Frederick Caven dish, the new chief secretary for Ireland, and Mr. Thomas H. Burke, the permanent under secretary, were walking through Phenix park toward the vieeregal lodge they were assans inated. Apother and severer coercion act was adopted, suspending trial by jury in certain cases and giving the lord lieutenant autocratic powers, At the general election of 1885 Mr. Parnell waa ve-clected for Cork, and his action in in- fidencigg the Irish vote sedured the return of many srvative candidates. Ip the season of 1887 a sensation was caused by the publication In the London Times of what purported to be a fac simile of a letter written by Mr. Parnell to a member of the Irish invineibles, excusing the murder of Mr, Burke, though regretting that of Lord Fred. erick Cavendish, Mr. Parnell denounced this in the house asa base and Infamous forgery.
