IRISH AFFAIRS.
AUBTRALIAN AND N.Z. CARLE ASSOCIATION. LONDON, June 21.
Mr W. H. Edgar, a Victorian M.L-.C. stated that he spent three weeks in the north and south of Ireland, and visited both Parliaments, and was the guest of the Ulster Government in Belfast, and also of the Speaker of the Free State at Dublin.
He states lie found the conditions in the south were chaotic. The Ministers practically lived continuously in the Parliamentary buildings, which were guarded by the military day and night. The banks and public offices wore also guarded by armed troops. Belfast, on the other band, was quiet, peaceful and prosperous. Even the prohibition of Sunday trading by hotels there was not resented.
