DISLOYALTY.
A choice example of the/manner m which disloyalty is fostered in Ireland is given in "Irish Notes ".which publishes 1 a copy of an anti-British poster recently issued in Enniscorthy. Ihe poster runs:— "Join the Army, bell your soul, your country, and your faod for the Saxon shilling. .Join England s hireling murderers that pitchcapped and hanged your forefathers m 9», and that would: do the same with you to-morrow. Your reward will be aMe of immorality and a dog's death in the gaol or" by the roadside. to India, to murder women and children, and shoot down men who are. fighting tor liberty. Join the Police: Become^ne of England's paid spies and murderers :■ become a Sullivan or a Sheridan ; one of the creatures in England s pay who evicted your fathers, and^w'ould do the same with their own. One of the men who shot young Stenson, and would shoot you to-morrow. Soldeirs and peelers are alike; don't associate with them ; make it impossible tor England to get recruits here and. her power is at an end. God save. Irelandy and to hell with England."
