It fs to be presumed that tho readers of ‘Kn, Tranuxe are faniliar with the litest phase of the Irish land struggle, inwhielt the Land Leagne has won tt effect a bloodless vietory, which will be far-reaching tu tts ine fluence if it 1s followed up with the same coolness and cunning that have characterized tho initial movement. Every step that has been taken by the Government in assisting to harvest the crop of Boycott, agent for Lord Erne,--which, according to the «dls- patches, amounts to two acres ofturnips, ten of potatoes, nnd twenty aeres of wheat and onts,—has been charueterized by the most ridiculous features, and has placed the Goy- ernment in the most absurd and humillating postire, through the shrewd good sense of tho Land League. ‘Lhe terrified: rack- renter, Buycott, coopel up in his farm-house, not daring © to ventura out, and ruefully contemplating his whent, oats, potatoes, and turnips rotting on tho ground for want df Inborers to guthor them; the gung of Orange Inhorers hired to go down there, who themselves are nearly as much in need of land reform as the Catholics, but will not aMiiinte with them because they differ on dognias which neither of them un- derstand; the quaking, shivering column, marehing fifteen intes through ratn and mud. because no one would hire conveynnces to them, protected fn front andrenr and on both flanks by the swords and bayonets of British artillery, dragoons,. hussars, and infantry, and not seeing the face of a man along thelr line of march; the crowds of screaming und jeering women and children who hooted them; the plgs ‘which. squealed and the geese’ that” hissed at thom; the shivering Boycott, coming out of his house with his rifle to mect the English Government, which had sent {ts bayoneted representatives to harvest his turnips; tho Orange dogmatlsts at work in his potatofield furtively watching between the.rows for con- cealed tenants, and the red-coats patrolling round the boundaries of the farm to blazo away at any land-reformers who inight ba bold enough to Interfere, but fining nothing worthy of their steel, not oven a rabbit,—all this Is suficiently ridiculous, humillating, and contemptible, Never was an Irish rack-ronting Innd agent Inguch an absurd position before. Never wore the troons of the Engtlsh Government engaged on such a contemptible mission, ‘Tho harvesting of the shiverlng Boycott's crops, tinder protection of the bayonet, was atriumph for tho Land League, Itshowsthat at Inst the League has some bralns, some where beliind its management, and If those brains keep on working in’ the sane direetion, sand the Land Lenguo fs managed with the same coolness and sagacily, there will soon bo an end of rack- rents, and evictions, and expatriations, ‘Tho Government cannot long stand the storm of ridicule, and obloquy, and contempt that Is sure to follow repetitions of the Boycott farce, and these repetitions the Land League ean forco on every eviction farm in Ireland. Boycott is not the only agent who fs already wrowlng sick of his dirty work, and watching his opportunities to sneak away and resign any farther manngement of farms under a fond syatom which makes hin the object of | silent scorn and «etestation, It was a grent victory because It wasnccompllshed without bloodshed, and leaves tho Government with- out a shadow of pretense to send troops. into Ireland to put down disturbances and enforce hiws, It was a yictory over Boycott himself, and consequently over every other Trish agent, and has sickened thom of thoir dirty business, Itis a victory which cannot but make adeep Impressionon the English people, * A.A, Freeman, of Tennessee, Solicitor of tho Post-Onico Department, takes excep Hon to the statement attributed to Gov, Fos- ter that, as Garfield received no Electoral votes from the South, he is under no obllga- tion to recognize that section by a Cabinet appointment, Freeman suys, in a letter to Fosters Ido not undorstand that Cubinet appoint+ monte are to be used ns a meansof Ulquidation of politleat obligations, Iowa, I Lollove, ts tho banner Republican State, Is Iowa, therefore, entitiod tothe best uppolutmont?
