policy have been made.He says that as a matter of fact ho did present his resignation when a member of the (Cabinet and only withdrew It at the earnest request of Mr.Gladstone, in view of the national interests involved in connection with the Franchise Bill.Steamers arriving at ports hi the south of France report renewed hurricanes: The steadier \u201cBleniieijn\u201d has entered the harbor of

cent.In Canadian circles in England, great disappointment is expressed at the failure of the British Post Office authorities to make the necessary arrangements for a fast mail service between the Dominion and Great Britain.The last sailing under the present postal service lietwcen this country and Canada takes place to-day, and Canadians and all people having-business or other interests in British Amci ica are looking forward to further postal annoyances.The Canadians claim that their Government lias done everything possible to induce English capitalists to undertake to furnish between Canada and England a service equal to the best similar service between New York and England.Bnt, it is added, in spite of all the efforts made in this direction, the Canadians and those interested in Canada have failed to accomplish the object they had in view.The sum of $760,000 was offered hy Canada ns a subsidy to assist in maintaining a fast mail service between the Dominion and England, but even that amount of money does not seem to be inducement enough for English capitalists to become interested in an Anglo-Canadian fast mail service.Cork, Ostober 29.\u2014Mr.John Dillon was pursued and attacked last night while driving to attend an anti-Pamellite meeting He was pelted with stones and received a severe blow on the knee frotn a stick.The Injury is not serious, but on account of the swelling Mr.Dillon must keep quiet« The fighting w hich took place between the McCarlhyttes and the Parnellitcs last night in the streets of the city, was more serious than it appeared from the first reports received at police headquarters.There were a aeries of scrimmages between the coutending parties, the most severe being the one in which Mr.Dillon was disabled.Crowds of McCarthVites were accompanying Messrs.Dillon and (PBrien, who Were on their way to attend a McCarthyite meeting in the Market Place; The McCarthyitcs came in collision with a torchlight procession of Parnellites.The latter was headed by a brass baqd composed of some of John E.Redihond\u2019s most enthusiastic supporters.Neither crowd would give way to the other and a hot and general melee followed, several thousand persons taking part.Blackthorns were used with effect by both parties and bricks and stones flying through the air added to the ardor of the rival factions ami considerably increased the excitement.Finally the McCarthyitcs succeeded in wrenching the torches from the Parnellites, quenched them by stamping upon them, and, with yells of delight, after completing the route of their enemies, the victorious McCarthyite* continued their march.Upon arriving at the Market Place Mr.Wni.O\u2019Brien addressed a meeting composed of 5000 McCarthyitcs, who vigbrously applauded the telling points made by the orator.The Market Place presented a most picturesque and animated scene.The square was illuminated by blazing tar barrels and a small forest of torches.To such a degee was the enthusiasm of the multitude aroused by Mr.O\u2019Brien\u2019s flow ing words, that many women, who plentifully besprinkled the throng, were worked up to such a pitch of excitement that they climbed on the jaunting car from which Mr.O'Brien was delivering his impassioned address and tried to embrace the speaker.In the meantime, the routed Parnellites had sought around for reinforcements.With these additions to their strength the Parnellites made another onslaught upon tl* McCur-thyitc-s and ascetic which will long be remembered by certain Cork residents follow\u2019cd.ïhe Parnellites\u2019 attack was w\u2019cll planned, well led and carried out with abundance of pluck and dash.They charged into the square with a vim, slashing right and left with their Idackthorns and splitting many a McChrthyite head os they tried to force their way up to the car on which stood Mr.O\u2019Brienandhissupportcrs.Onpressed the Parnellites with roars of derision, which were answered by fierce counter cries on the part of the McCarthyites.The latter, though they fought with desperate energy, were slowly but surely driven back and with howls of triumph the Parnellites captured the blazing tar barrels and kicked and rolled them into the river.Then for a time the Parnellites, with exultant cheers and other shouts of a victorious political battle, held the Market Place.Defeat, however, only served to heighten the McCarthyites\u2019 appetite for battle.Following the example of the Parnellites they also sought for and found strong reinforcements, and they again mustered in a compact body and with thundering shouts made a dash at the Parnellites on the Market Place.Hie music Jof the clashing blackthorns once more filled the air.It was give and take on both sides, with no question of quarter or hope of mercy.After a most desperate battle, the Parnellite force was routed.Many on both sides were injured in addition to those already reported as being take to the hospital to have their wounds attended to.The Parnellites had to relinquish t ic possession of the Market Place and were driven belter skelter down the neighboring streets, and theu the once again triumphant McCarthyitcs made the old Market Place echo and re-echo with their cheers of victory.The hospital in this city is getting to be quite a rendezvous for woundetj political
