A CHANOE FOR THE FRMALE DOCTORS. That much persecuted class of the eon munity, the female doctors, ab Inst have an Opporttinity where they enn suceesstully operate without any danger from interfor- ence of mate physicians, ‘The London 2incs* Culetitta correspondent writes to that paper that tha Maharajah of Punnal, tho Capital of x native State In Inula, recently applied for the nssistaneo of n Indy medtenl mission- ary at Lucknow for hls wife, the Maharanece, who was afitictad with an internal complaint, At appears that itis the highest. dishonor for fn indoo lady of igh easte to seo nny man other than fier husband, tathor, or brother, aud rather than seo m male physician they prefer death, Tho female physician sent. for nttended tho ease, and cured: tho Maharance and several of her Attendants.

Tho tnat Sunday editlon of ‘Tar rmune contained a long cable dispatch from London from Sir. L, J. Jennings upon the workings of the Irish Land law. Mr. Jennings, who is a bitter Conservative, ropresents tho Tory view of the Inw, and writes from tho Irish Jundlord slde of the question, and It Is soine- what curious, If not refreshing, after listen- ing for yenrs to the wrongs of the tenant, to hear this gentleman cloquently and even fiercely discussing the wrongsof feudal Irish landlords, and to learn from him that “the English Jandlords-contempiate tho havoc wrought in Ireland by Gladstone's bil with feolings nkin to those of the California stago passenger who knows that it is his turn to be robbed next.’ If this were xetunlly so, wo do not conceivo thnt.the landlords would be subjects for commlseration, since they woultL the “havoc” which thoy have been visiting upon the tenants by wholesale, even to the verge of ruln, eviction, and absolute starva- tion. But this {g not to the point, sinco the Jaud. law Is only bringing tenant and landlord upon a common platform, where Justles sits administering something ke equal rights, The urgunents of Mr, Jennings hardly need answer, sinco the operations of the law itself ng itis administered in the Land Court In the matter of adjusting rents to the satisfac tlon of the tenant, and In many-cases of tho landlord, furnish the best reply that enn be made to hig jeremlad over Inndlords’ hue nglinty wrongs, Still thera aru some points that nay be made to show the abstrdity of tho complaint, Mr, Jennlugs says; “Tho annual rental of Ivoland Is In round numbers 80 mililon dollars, so that the Land Court's docisions wlll probably involye the loss of 27 mill- fons. year to the Inndlords, or, reckou- tug the lotal value of Inst land property at 1,00 milllong of dollara, the lanitlords are to be ‘despotled? of over 500 milliuns.”” What does this latter sum represent of which tho Irish landlords, according to Mr. Jennings, avo to be “despolled?? It ls the sum which tho tenants have heretofore expended in hinprovenients, and which the Inndlords have conflsentedt from them, The law shnply makes restitution of tho stolen property to the rightful owners, It consists of bulld- ings, barns, fences, drainage, and tho mate rials which the tenants have accumulate ed for tha working of their farms, and which haya hitherta been selzed by tho landlords’ as means for Inereus- {uz renta, and when theso ronta coulil notbe puld thoy have been confiscated by the Inndtords and the terfants thrown on the streets, ‘Tha prosent Iaw blocks tho Jan tonopollsts tn thalrhigh-handed usurpation. It prevents thom from Inerensing rents upon the grounds of fmprovemonts made by the tenants or their prddecessots unless they juve alrendy got the vatue of then from the Inndlords, and no rent ean bo muda payable in any proceedings under ‘the act in respect of Improvements indde by tho tenants ox thelr predecessors unless they linvo baen pald or otherwise compungated by the Inudlords for such Improvements; aid when the tennuts sell their buildings thoy aro entitled to com: pensation for their Improvements, Anstead of “despolling” the landlords of $500,000,000, thu law proyents them’ froin re- tainlaye $50,000,000 worth of stolen property carved by tha tenunta, It Is tantamount to tho restoration to tho tenarits of that umount of purloined property of which they have heretofore been deprived.
