MR. COAD AND HOME RULE.
TO Till! EDITOR. Sit ~—l cannot allow the letter of Sir William Fox, stigmatising " Morcatio " for iiia article on "Local Gossip " to go unchallenged. Desoito Sir William Fox's disavowal, Mr. Coad stated both publicly and privately that he held the cause of Homo Rule for Ireland to be just; and stated that tho time was not far distant when its consummation would be realised. lii reference to the remarks of Sir W. Fox, that Mr. Coad in his public orations never made any allusions to the oauso of Home Rule, I must say tlwifc he was cither actuated by a desire to mislead the public or was sufloriug from some hallucination. I heard Mr. Coad iu one of his public addresses say that", the present British Government, would go up in a balloon, and have no parachute to descend in, and that the time would come when they would be ground into powder and be heard of no more.—l am, etc., Temi'khanck.
