IRISH AFFAIRS.
London, Feb. 3.
The Countess of Kingston and Colonel O'Callaghan have arranged the rents of their Irish tenants so as to mitigate the hardship and sufferings they are now laboring under. A. deputation of Irish land-owners to-day waited on Lord Salisbury asking that they should receive from Government some assurance of finality in the matter of Irish land legislation. They argued that under the present continul changes they suffered heavy losses for which they claimed they should be recompensed by the State. The deputation also complained bitterly* of the working of the Land Commission. The Premier replied that the deputation had his entire sympathy, and he promised that the Cabinet would fully consider their representations, and make enquiry into the working of the commission.
