CALOGRAMS.

[Keutjeu's Special.]

London, October 19,

The manifesto which was issued yesterday by the Land League was signed by Parnell, Davitt and others. The document in exhorting the tenants to refuse to pay rent states that those who may be evicted for so acting will be supported by American money, and need not fear starvation.

Owing to fears that an attempt may be made on the life of Mr Gladstone, he is now under strict police protection.

Serious disturbances occurred to-day at Dublin, arising out of the excited feeling now pervading the masses in that city over the strong measures which are being adopted by the Government for the suppression of the Land League. Large mobs of people gathered to-day in various parts of the city, wrecked several houses, robbed a number of shops, and otherwise committed serious depredations before the Constabulary arrived on the scene of the disturbance.

The Land League has issued a manifesto exhorting tenants to refuse to pay rent until Government abandons its terrorism and restores to the Irish their constitutional rights.

London, October 18.

Mr Gladstone is suffering from an attack of influenza.

A proclamation has been issued by the Government in Ireland, warning all peaceably disposed citizen's to remain in their homes after dark, until further notice.
