HOME RULE.
London, Feb. 25. Mr Redmond, Bishop O’Donell and Mr O’Mara, trustees ol the Parliamentary Fund, renew, Ihronijh the Freeman’s Journal, an appeal for subscriptions. Since December £1650 has been subscribed, of which £IOOO has been collected in Ireland, The Freeman’s Journal endorses the appeal. The Dublin correspondent ol the Times says the tone ol the Freeman’s Journal suggests that the leaders are disappointed with the progress of the fund in 190 G. The people are apathetic, one reason bring ihc growth of the Gaelic League, Sinn, Fein and other bodies preaching the futility of parliamentary action, and another is the failure.of the leaders to render any public account of the sums collected in America and Australia. According to the Nationalist Press £40,000 is a moderate computa’ion of the amount the missions received throughout the world. The existence ot such a sum, adds the correspondent! acts as a drag on the collection of hinds in Ireland.
