Before the close of the present week, tha Irish Land bil, over whieh the British Var Nament has been wrangling slnce Inst spring, will become a law. ‘The agitation on this subject hay been so intense, and the Interest therein has been so grent even in thiy voun- try, that it is opportune to point out the leading particulars of what ling been accom- pilshed by the bill. At tho time this bill was proposed, all the holders of Jand in Ircland outside of the Province of Ulster, aul a large proportion of those !n Ulster, held their farms, whethor of hve neres or of 500 neres, under a tenancy of one year, or practically at the will of tho landford. In the Provinco of Ulster there. hut been for 200'yenrs or more, under an old grant, & ‘regulation. known ‘as tha “ Ulster custom,” under Which the tenants ad long leases, and whon tha lense was ter- ilnated, by expiration or otherwise, the ten- ant was entitled to compensation for the im- provements pluced by him on the land, This custoin was.not recognized ontsldeof Ulstor, and hence the tenant in the rest of Lreland were not allowed to remove, nor were they entitled to make any claim for, any Linprove. ments made by them, All the finprovemonts thoy puton the land were confiscated by the Lords, Tho leases being from year td yenr, the tenants were compelled to pay whatever rent tha agents. of tho Lords demanded of them, or be evicted and lose thelr all. Thus thoy lived at the mercy of the Lord and from hand to mouth all thelr tives. One result of this horrid system has been that outside of the Province of Ulster there have been no improvements, and theso people have lived for generation after generation not daring to build houses or barns or make any Improvement lest they would be deprived of them by eviction, or have their rent raised in consequence of tho yulue of the improve- nent. In 1870 Mr. Gindstone moved a Land dill, which, nmong othor things, proposed to ox- tend the Ulster custom to all parts of Iro- Jand.. When this blll was on fis passage Lord Cairns moved what hy sald was merely & verbal amondmont,—that of niakig the word ‘custom’? read “customs,”—nand 16 was unwittingly accepted, A clause was olao Insertuil by the Lords that tenants and landlords might contract or agreo on terms outside of the law, ‘Tho eifect of these anendinents was fatal to theact. ‘Tho Courts declared that thoy could recognize no plural Ulator “ customs,” though the * Ulster cus- tom” was something known and recognizul by law, ‘Chis hai. the atfect of destroying that part of tho bill, while the “contract” provision enabled tho landlords to ake tho tonanta waive, even {n° Ulster, the right to coinpensation for improvements. As fast as the outstanding lenses expired new ones wero refused except ona contract divesting the tenants of all thoy had previously en- Joyed, and confiscating thelr property, Under Gladstone's. DIN Just passed {thas been ahacted: (1) That all lenses and ront- Ings shall bo for a term of not less, thinn fit teon years, during which the rents *shiall not beincrenasud, (2) ‘That the tenants, present and future, shall be allowed to linprove thelr farms a3 much ns they pleago, and that upon the expiration of the lense, if they leave the land, they shall be entitled to compensation for such improvements, (8) That the tenwnts shall have a vested right of property in the lease and In all the fmprovements they shall make; that thoy may sull or devise tho samy; and that in renowing their leases tha exist eneo or yalio of these Improvements shall not be computed In fixing the future rontal value of the land, (4) ‘That the landlords shall not be permitted to demand any mora than 9 fair and roasunably rent,’ and when thuowner and tonant fall to agree upon what {fy a just and. reasonable. rent the matter alall be determined by a speclat Land Court created for the purpose ‘of -dotermining such’ contra- versies, (5) The Jaw Js mado fimporative, and none of ita terms or provisions can be oyaded, or sut aside, or defeated by contract, Ifa tenant should be wheediedt or bulldozed into signing away any of his rights nnderthe Jaw ho can repudiate such contract and claim under the Land law, ‘The law further pro vides legal tacillties for a. transfer by pure chase of the land to the tenants as proprie- tors, It provides for a valuation, and any occupant, upon. paylng one-fourth ‘of the ipriceot the holding, may. obtain from the Governnient the: money to puy the other three-fourths, ‘This toan by the Government 16 repayablo in. thirty-five equal annual ine stailments with 8 per cent juterest, ‘To be- come proprietor of tha Jand be cultivates, the fenaut has only to pay annually onethirty- fifth of three-fourths of tho purchase inoncy, The Government has set aside a auMelent sum of the disestablished Irish Church fund for this purpose. ‘The Irish pensantry nro now, by this bill, for tho first tine In 200 years, given absolute security In tho possession of thetr nnd. They have, In the first piace, a recurity and pro- tection that the rents shall be fair and renson> able; they haye also, for the first tlie, 0 fixity of tenure by which they are secured possession for fifteen years; and next, thoy are given a right of property, of which they cannot be divested, In all that thoy may ex- pend for their own coinfortand conventonce In the way of improvement on the land, Theso rights of property, inolnding that of thelr tenses, they.can sell at ploasure, aud in enso of their denths the right deseunds to tholr representatives. ‘These aro substantial privileges and rights to whieh the Irish peo- ple have been strangers for many conturies, Tho “three Fs?—~fair rent, fixity of tenure, and fall compensation for the frults of their own labor—have been granted and seotred by this Dilt, With the whole land of the country placed by Jaw in the possession of. the cultivators for fifteen years, there Is no reason why there should not be nan fintediate and rapld.

Thereis no Jonger an_ excuse for the mud cabins; the tenants of Lreland muy now, for tho first Une in centtrles, erect hubliations ft for humun beings without fear of haying them contis- cated at the pleasure of the landlord. ‘They van. now plow deep, may now diteh and fence, and may produce from the land all that skill and inetstry can necomplish without fear of Having their rents ralsed in conse. quence, All pretense or npology for play- ing poverty, and for saqunlidness, idleness, aud earsless farming Is removed.
