Blaine, member for the southern division of Armagh, has given notice to move for the establishment of a Parliament in Dublin to control the administration of land, judiciary, and police affairs. A Conference at Belfast has arranged to hold a convention in Ulster to protest against an Irish Parliament. Sir C. Russell, in speaking on Mr Blaine's motion, said the Conference was the most important meeting that had been held in Belfast for a century.

April 11. Mr Goschen, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, introduced the Budget to-night. He stated that the surplus last year was £1,067,000. The death dues, owing to the ravages of influenza, were £689,000 above the estimate, but the stamp duties fell £400,000 below the estimate. He set down the expenditure for next year at £90,253,000, and the revenue at £90,470,000. There would consequently be no remission of taxation, except a small reduction in the patent fees, and the present dual tax on sparkling wines would be replaced by a uniform duty of 2s. Looking to the future, he was of opinion that the situation called for caution, but not alarm. He had felt it necessary to reduce the estimated receipts from income tax £470,000 below the amount collected last year. ™ «. Holloway's Ointment and Pills.— Coughs and influenza. —The soothing properties of these medicaments render them well worthy of trial in all diseases of the respiratory organs. In common colds and influenza the Pills taken internally and the ointment rubbed over the chest and throat, are exceedingly efficacious. When influenza is epidemic, this treatment is the easiest, safest and surest. Holloway's Piils purify the blood, remove all obstacles to its free circulation through the lungs, relieve the over-gorged air tubes, and render respiration free, without reducing the strength irritating the nerves, or depressing the spirit; such are the ready means of escaping from suffering when afflicted with colds, coughs, bronchitis, and other chest complaints, by which the health of so many is seriously and permanently injured in most countries.
