Irish Affairs.

London, March 13. ?Mr Gladstone declines to receive a Bllfast deputation, on the grounds that the meeting which if; represents passed a resolution threatening to resist the Home Rule Bill. The Plan of Campaign has been revived on the Templemore estate, in WeXford. The Unionist agitation against autonomy for Ireland is increasing. Money is being abundantly subscribed to fesist granting Home Rule, and the agitation, is increasing. The proposal to hold a great AntiHome Rule meeting in the Albert Hall in April has been abandoned. When the proposal was mooted it was expected that the gathering would be attended by 10,000 Ulster men, but as only seven hundred could come it was decided not to hold the meeting. Yielding to pressure from the Opposition the Government has postponed the second reading of the Home Rule Bill till after Easter. , March 14. - The Radicals and Nationalists- are jqmch agrieved aV ’Mr Gladstone’s yielding to the Unionists in postponing the-second reading of the Home Rule Biiruntilafter Easter.

’ 1 An old Scptchinan; is said to have risen \ ip pmyer-meeting one night and apgropos of nothing delivered himself m ithe following remarks“ There ,aye;. three; things I never could quite .understand ‘ First, why boys will tbroyr’sticks at green apples when, if they- waited the, apples would ripen and drop off ; secondly, 1 never could quite comprehend why men go to war to eaphvother when, if they requietly at home they would die, 'a natural death in good time; thirdly, and most important of all, I do not see why men chase round after the women, since, if they sat qfill, the women would run rouqd after them.” How true that death comes to all men, to some so permaturely, who neglect the warning symptoms of approaching disease, ‘such as a tired aching feeling in the morningi headaches and nervousness, spur taste in the mouth, &c. All these'are signs that the physical body is deranged and that if treated lightly; serious danger is to be apprehended. Alfred Saunders, Esq., Octagon, Dunedin, saysClements’ Tonic, and Fletcher’s Pills cured me of nervous debility after I had 1 consulted ten medical men, and spent £2OO on their fees and medicines. It is disgraceful that the law allows the depredations of these harpies. I -can honestly recommend Clements’ Tonic. It must be good. Mine was a bad case, as most of the doctors here can prove. Of course I had to take ajJojag course, but that was to be expected, for .1 had been terribly humbugged, but T dm at last restored jfco health and ; ’ strength solely by Clements’ Tonic. ! ;
