OUR IRISH LETTER

(From our own correspondent.) Dublin, September 8.

the H n r.«r: «'iiw

We shall have some warm days when the long promised elections come off. The Parnellite Party has wisely fused into the National ranks, and so the Itidcpmdfnt newspaper, which was run in the interests of a section, has ceased to exist. It never paid its way. This week it has been taken over, nominally, by a new friend of Mr. Healy's, Mr. Tallon, late Lord Mayor and once a Parnellite, who, in the name of a company, purchased the Independent, and Mr. Healy's paper, the Nation, married them in haste and will probably repent at leisure, for the Irish people want unity amongst our representative men, and I do not think a newspaper that favors any merely personal party spirit can succeed at the preßent time.
