LATE CABLE NEWS.

[By Telegraph.] TPer s.s. Albion at Auckland.] LONDON, May 8. Another attempted murder is reported from Ireland. A bedroom in the house of a magistrate living at Macroom, nineteen miles from Cork, was fired into, and completely riddled with shot. Fortunately none of the inmates wore injured. The would-be assassin escaped. Owing to the alarming spread of disaffection and outrages in Ireland, the l police have received instructions to make diligent search for concealed arms. General search is accordingly being made in oil the shops and low public houses, and any arms found there ate seized. May 9. Mr Parnell, in the course of a speech in the House of Commons, declared the assassination of Lord Fredb. Cavendish and Mr Barko was devised by enemies of the Land League, in order to bring discredit upon that body. Sailors are engaged in searching the River Liffey for the bodies of the assassins, who are reported to have committed suicide. The House of Commons have ins'.ruoted tho Attorney-General to defend the action brought by Bradlaugh against tho Deputy Sergoant-at-Arms, for assault committed upon him in process of his ejectment from tho Chamber.

Tho prosecution of tho Mayor of Vienna for neglect of duty in connection with the Ring Theatre disaster, is abandoned. A strong anti-Irish feeling was aroused by tho recent murders in Ptoenix Park. In one instance a great meb attacked some Irish residents and severely maltreated them, in revenge for the Dublin outrage. The town of Clonmel, in Munster, is notified as a proclaimed district under tho provisions of the Peace Preservation Act. Tho recent demonstration sgainst tho Irish residents occurred at Bright House, in Yorkshire.

A further reward of £IOOO has been offered for information, privately given, leading to the conviction of the assassins of Lord Frederick Cavendish.

May 11. The “ Standard” publishes a most remarkable letter from M'Davitt, recently released from Portland prison on ticket-of-leave. In it the writer charges the late Irish Secretary, the Bight Hon. W. E. Forster, with having deliberately planned the encouragement of outrages by arresting him. Had he boon allowed his liberty ho would have used bis powerful influence in the Land League to prevent crimes. Davitt goes on to »ay that he no longer believes in the resort to force for the relief of Ireland from her prelent unfortunate-condition. During his bitter solitude in a sonviot’s cell brighter and nobler visions had dawned upon him, and he was now prepared to advocate more peaceable measures, believing that the enfranchisement and fraternising of the people, and an appeal to their sense of justice, would go far to efface the present race bitterness and ancient hatred.
