PARNELL DENOUNCED AS AN IMPOSTOR.

Tho Dublin correspondent ot the Daily Telegraph telegraphs the following reput of the proceedings of the last meeting of the Guardians of the Baltin glass Union ; S. P. Penis, J. P. in the Chair The Clerk informed tho Board that the collectors represented to him that they experienced great difficulty in collecting the a ed rates; in fact they stated very few persons who got seed wore willing >n pay for it. Rome people had waited on him. and he told them tho Board had given instructions to the collectors to proceed with the collection without delay.—Mr E. A. Dennis? Now that a branch of the Land League has been established at BalHnglass peop'e will not pay anything- They don’t know how hadlythey are off until they are told. —The Chairman: I hoped Mr Parnell would come to Baltinglass in order that 1 might tell him to his face that he is an impostor. I think the secret of his not coming is he was afraid of exposure. I am the only magistrate who attends regularly Hackotstown Petty Sessions, and the greatest cases or hardship that have come before me occurred on Mr Parnell’s property- Some years ago ho tried to eject on a summons ; and only last week £ had a man before mo looking for cnmpeusarion for malicvons injuries. 'Jhatvery man is one whom Mr Parnell placed on a farm from which he ejacted another man. —Mr Toole : Why is it that he has not been taken up in the papers for that ?—The Chairman r There has been some notice taken of it, and only that I hoped he would attend some meeting near here I would lay these facts before the public. I would rather go and tell him he is an impostor to his face, and ask him to contradict me if he could, than have a newspaper conirovpisy. It is well known that the rental of one town land, of which he is the owiier,is nearly three times the poor-law valuation. I believe the tenants are not paying him, and he boasted to myself that he sold the Comity Carlow property, which was not able to pay the interest of the money that was raised to luy it, so well that he paid off the debt i a I had money left, with which he bought a property elsewhere. He foroeil the tenants to take nut leases at an increased rent, and thereby made it pay so well.—The subject then dropped.
