PARNELL DENOUNCED AS AN IMPOSTER.

The Dublin correspondent of the DailyTelegraph telegraphs the following report <0-f the proceeding of the last meeting of the G-uardians of the Baltinglass Union, S. P. Denis, J.P., in the chair. The clerk informed the Board that the collectors represented to him that they experienced great difficulty in collecting the seed rate; in fact, they stated that very few persons who got seed were willing to pay for it. Some people had waited on him,and he told them the Board had given instructions to the collector to proceed with, the collection without delay..—Mr 8.,, A. Denis; Now that a branch of the Land League has been established at Baltinglass people will not pay anything.

I would rather go and tell him he is an imposter to his face, and ask him to contradict me if he could, than have a newspaper con(fcrof e?sy.

I believe the tenants are not paying 'him, and he boasted to myself that he sold the County Garlow property, which was not able to pay the interest of the money that was raised to buy it, so well that he paid off the debt and had money Jeffc, with which be bought property elsewhere.
