IRISH AFFAIRS.

Shot While Protecting Process- Servers—Proclaimed Baron ics.

LONDON, April 2.

An affray has occurred between the people and the police who were protecting process servers on an estate near Bullaghadcreeu, County Mayo. Two men were killed and one wounded. Twelve baronies in County Cork have beeu proclaimed in a state of disturbance.

Nkw YoitK, April 3.—A "Herald" cablegram from London of April 2nd says : As the day for the introduction of the Irish Land bill approaches deep interest is mani fested to learn the exact nature of its pro vision?, but hitherto tho secret had been well guarded by the Ministry. Mcau while, reports from Bnlliua state that a large number of evictions have taken place on the property of aGalwaygeutleman near that place during the lait few days, and that some of the scenes were of a pitiable character. A party of police, numbering over one hundred men, yesterday accompanied the sub-Sheriff in two town lands, where thirteen families wore put out. Many of these families were very destitute, and appeared not to have any food. Only two of them were allowed to return, one as care-taker aud the other after paying the rent. The parish priest did all he could to relievo the wretched people, who had probably refused or had been unable to pay their rents for somo years, but still tried to keep their belongings. In every case the evicted tenants carried off the doors of their houses, and the sheriff's assistants had to be build up the space with stones. The latter obtained possession peaceably, however. It is stated tbat it would be impossible for anybody to live in these holdings even at a much lower rent than had been put upon those' who were evicted, the district being barren and mountainous. The police are en gaged almost every day in evictions, and process-serving. The master of the Kildare hounds has issued a notice that in consequence of hounds having been poisoned in different part of the country, the pack will not hunt any more this season. A large number of processes for rent and eject ments have been served ou the estate of Mr Guy Lloyd, .Justice of the Peace at Crogham, and will come up at the eusuing quarter sessions, when nearly 1000 processes of rent will be heard. Upwards of three hundred and fifty civil bills, wiits and ejectments lor rent have been issued in the estate of Colonel Kinc Harnian, M.P., for Sligo. A majority of the tenants resolve to hold out against the present rates until they are ejected. I hear, on good authority, that these comiug evictions were discussed at the last Cabinet Council, together with the possible outbreaks that might result. Dublin, April 3. —At a meeting at Clough, County Kilkenny, Dillon read a telegram from Ballaghadereen about the affray there yesterday, stating that the police had fired on the pople without provo cation. Two men were killed, two are dying, and three were wounded. The details of the riot at Ballaghadereen, on Saturday are as follow: The people attacked the police, who opened fire on the crowd. Two rioters were killed and thirty two wounded, four of whom are not ex pected to live. One policeman was killed and several severely injured by stonc3. On or before the 7th inst. every person in the following places must ledge at the nearest police station all arms and ammuni-, tion they possess lor the purpose of obtain ing licenses:— The several baronies of County Donegal, the Counties of Galway. Kerry, Leitrim, Limerick, Longford, Mayo, Poscommon. Monaghan, Sligo and Weit meath, parts of Kilkenny and Queen's counties, the cities of Limerick and Cork, the town of Galway and seven baronies in Tipperary. Several counties are also pro claimed with regard to the Bale of arms without license. TWO GIKLS SHOT. London, April 6.—While a dozen police men were escorting a process-server at Ballinamore, County Leitrim, they were at tacked by twenty women with stones and sticks. A girl aged 20 was fatally shot, and another wounded. Several of the police were seriously injured.

ATTEMPT TO BLOW UP THE LONDON MANSION HOUSE.

We inLondon have not been unthreatened by an outrage which may be described as a feeble and futile parody of that which has robbed Russia of Alexander 11. On Wed nesday night, March IG, about eleven o'clock, a policeman who was on duty at the Mansion House saw a curiously-shaped oblong box on a window-sill. A burning fuse was attached to it, and the constable perceived that mischief was on foot. Ho seized the box, extinguished the fuse, and took his burden to the police-office. On being opened it was found to contain fifteen pounds of common blasting powder. If the discovery had not been made at that precise moment it would have been too late, and the explosion would have taken place. The Home Secretary, in the House of Com mons last night, March 17tb, stated that every effort was being made to find out the perpetrator of the intended outrages. Ihe police are believed to have a clue. I here is little doubt that the hand of Feuianism may be detected in this business. Already it has had a warning effect upon the Govern ment. Special precautions are being taken at the House of Commons, and the subter ranean passages are very strictly guarded. New York, March 20.-A "World London special says :—The ridiculous at tempt to blow up the Mansion House is ascribed by some to the Fenians, and by others to the agents of the secret Continen tal socialists now residing in London, but it is more probable that it was cither a very rough practical joke upon Lord Mayor McArthur and the London public gener ally, or a police job for the purpose of securing extra appropriations for the force. It is certain, however, that if the Criminal Investigation Department is to be believed, that various plots have been laid to destroy public buildings, but whether the conspira tors are Fenians or Internationalists, the police themselves do not pretend to know. Since Michael Barrett's attempt to Wow up the Clerlcenwell prison, Londoners are ready to believe in the maddest projects attributed to Irishmen. I understand that Grenfell, Governor of the Bank of England, has received informa tion that an attempt will be made to hoist "the. old lady ou Threadneedle-street"

into the air, and that the military guard which occupies tho bank every night has been doubled. There is a legend that a rat. catcher onceobtaiued access to the bullion room in tho bank from the sewer which runs beneath it, and perhaps the ageuts of tho " skirmishing fund " have an idea that they also can operate from the drains. If they have, they will learn that the rat-catcher story is apocryphal. A vigilant watch is also being kept on the Royal Exchange, the London and Westminster Bank, and the bank and insurance buildings in Lom dard-sttcct and old Broad-street. The Parliament buildings,whichwcre thoroughly explored the other day, aic guarded by a picked posse of detectives, besides the regular olViccrs on duty there. The clubs, more particularly those were absentee land lords are supposed to squander their rents at baccarat, have beeu warned to look out for dynamite, but this is doubtless a joke of sinie of the young members, or at best the plot of gentlemen rendered morose and desperate by being blackballed. Parncll and his followers teel those alarms, which aro associated in the public mind with tho League agitation, are doing great injury to the [cansb of the Irish peoplo. It would be quite impossible for Gladstone to cany a liberal measure of land law reform if any outbreak were committed either in or the provinces.

LAST DAYS OF LORD BEACON CONSFIELD.

A cable special to the "World" from London of the 2nd is as follows :—Lord Beaconslield is still in a very precariou stnte. He ; is weak and exhausted from acute suffering and his strength of will alone enables him to hold out against the con centration of ailments witli which he is alllicted. lie is still engrossed in public affairs and persists in attending to matters of business, which always press upon tlie leader of a party in or out of ollicc. lie is particularly anxious to see his old private secretary, L'jrd Kowton, for tlio purpose of giving him instructions -rogardiug his memoirs awl private papers. These are of incalculable value, from a historical point of view, and Lord l>cacouslield has spent a great deal of his time Bincehe retired from ollicc in putting them into shape. They may be said to embrace the secret history of English politics for the last half century. Lord liowton, who possesses the dumbness of an oyster, is the only nia.i in England, except the author, who has been favored with a view of this precious collection, and it is generally understood that they will not bo published until at least feu yeais after Lord Beacouslio!d'sremoval|from the scene. They deal largely, of course, with men now living, and their premature publication would be as gross a blunder as Fronde's publication of Carlyle's Keminiscenees. Ilia Loidship has a strong objection, amounting almost to a superstition, to keeping his bed, mid is vow propped up on pillows in the drawing-room. lie is quite aware that it is a toss-up whether he lives or dies, but to outward appearance he is the most unconcerned man in the chamber. Ho is always ready with a mot for the doctors, and positively refuses to allow them to call in a third physician. Dr. Quin says to-di>y that his Lordship has visibly itnproved-aince the critical period on Thursday. His life greatly depends on the east wind. If it continues his chance is very poor. The doctors forbade him to touch business as soon as they were called, but lie has more faith in himself than in anybody else in the world, ami sends for Lord Harrington every morning to read the newspapers for him,and give hiu) all the cm rent political gossip. He takes great interest in the proceedings of Parlia ment on the Transvaal peace, and sent hU cougratulatioua to Lord (Jairus, who made a slashing attack ou the " peace at any prico " policy on Thursday night.

CAUSTIC CRITICISM ON CARLYLE.

Mrs Olipliaut, an old frieml of both the Carlyles, has an article in the cunent num ber of " Macniillan'a Magazine" on the " Reminiscences'," whieli attracts much attention. She maintains that Uarljle never intended their publication, as proved by Froudo's admissions, that Carlyle forgot all about the sketch of Edward Irving. Mrs Olipbaut insinuates that he neglected his wife, aud had some occa-ion for remorse on her death. She was left out of all his invi tations to grand houses, and she used to irake bitter remarks thereupon. She spoke of his " Frederick the Great " as the " Val ley of the Shadow of Frederick," and looked upon his weaknesses with a sort ot aflec tiouate contempt. lam informed that Car lyle died worth £40,000.

A THEATRE HORROR.

Burning of the Italian Opera

Mouse in Nice,

EUjhUj Persons Perish in the

Jj lames,

Nice, March 23.—Tlie Italian Opera House was burned this evening. Tho lire broke out at the beginning of the perform ance. The bodies of fourteen persons who were suffocated have been taken out aud placed in the church opposite the theatre. It is feared that 100 men and women perished in the flames. Nbw YORK, March 24.—A dispatch from Nice says: The holocaust at the Operu- House last evening was caused by .a gas ex plosion at the back of the stage which set tire to the scenery. The flumes spread with alarming rapidity, aud soou en veloped the gas meter. The supply of gas being cut off', the body ot the house was soon plun ;cd in darkness. The crowd pressed madly toward the limited means of exit. The audience was large, and in the panic hundreds were thrown down and trodden under foot. '1 hose who endeavoured to extricate the people hope lessly jammed between the doorway and the passages describe the scene as terrible. The shrieks of the wounded mingled with the cries of those in the galleries, whose every means of escape was cut off. Mine. Donadie, the prima donna, was saved, but the tenor, the basso, tho bmtone, and a number of chorus siugers were burned. FINDING OF THE BODIES. i Up to midnight 150 bodies were ex tricated from the ruins. A man who escaped from the upper gallery by jumping declares that, with perhaps a dozen ex ceptions, every person in hia part of the house was burned. A number of American and English visitors rendered signal assistance in saving life. The scene in the town was indiscribable. One lady, whose husband was burned to death, committed suicide.: The usual complaints are made respecting the defective meansof escape and a lack of a fuiucicnt water supply. Although the Mediterranean washes the shore at the foot of the walls of the theatre no water could be obtained when wanted, aud the beautiful Opera House became a complete wreck. THE VOCALIST VICTIMS.

Colonel Maplcson, Signor Ardetti, Signor Monti, and Mmc. Gerster's husband, at the rehearsal to-day, in the Academy of Music of this city, were much depressed by the news of the terrible calamity at Nice. Mme. Douadie sang in New York with Albani some years ago. The tenor was known to be De Villiers, a Frenchman, 35 years of age, and not remarkable for any excellence on the lyric stage. Tho baritone was Carbone, and the basso, a Pole named Miller, who has enjoyed a Continental reputation for many years. He was an old man, over 60. perhaps, Signor Monti knew him well, and was much affected by the report of the injuries which he had sustained Ferdinand Strakosch is believed to have been the iraprcssario of the troupe. Signor Bolognini war, the manager of the theatre. °THE BURNED BUILDING. Charles Mapleson said that the theatre cost about §350,000, and was built without regard to architectural design. '1 he outside walls were brick chiefly, with blocks of atone interlaid, for no seeming purpose, further than to make the structure appear un«i"htly. The interior looked very pretty, witlf its ornamented walls and ceilings and dazzling gilded work, but it was all gimcrack. "I have heard," sai.l Mapleson, "professional people who wer» accustomed to the strongly-built and handsome theatres of America, say : ' What a magnificent structure for a bon fire ' It resembled many of of the nigiiiy buiit theatres of the South of France. Like all theatres established at watering places, its season was short, ne»or extending over thee months in the year. The star there this season was Mm Rosie Isidore, who last year made a success in L°mion- £>b.c s a protdge of the Baroness Rothschild. Her parents reside in St. Louis, Missouri,

DETAILS OF THE HORROR. Many persons were trampled to death in the stampede. It does not appear that any Americans were among the victims. Ihe sole occupant of the stage when the expo- Mou occurred was seen enveloped iv tUo flames. The injury of Strakosoh was only a slight contusion of the leg. Eleven more bodies are said to be under the ruins. The exits of the theatre were very narrow and badly arranged. Signora Donadie was to have appeared for the first time at the Opera

House on the night of the fire. A gas jet set lire to some of the scenery. As tho cur tain was down, the public were unaware of the danger until the gas exploded, when the smoke became sullocatiugly thick. The people tried to throw themselves from the small windows near the roof of theatre. Sixty-seven bodies so far have been re covered. Seventy persons are eaid to have perished. Nothing remains of the theatre but the four walls. Mostof the artists were in their dressing rooms and were aware of their danger, but it was too late to escape. The choristers rushed along a narrow passage in the darkness, presumably too much disabled iv the crush to escape. The bass, tuior aud baritone must have been suffocated. Their bodies aro presumably under tho ruins. The parts of the theatre most filled were the upper galleries, and as the dis tance from them to tho doors was long and by narrow corridors and stairways, tho peoplo in the galleries had the greatest dillicnlty in escaping. There was a very inadequate supply of water. The sailors who volunteered as firemen plied buckets of sea water, which, however, were almost useless. Two midshipmen rescued two persons from the chamber, who arc still living, but terribly scorched, one being a raging lunatic. Some of the bodies found arc so horribly charred that recognition is impossible. The body of ono ot the singers has beon recognized.

THE DEATH ROLL.

Nice, March 24.—Up to 3 o'clock this uftcraoou sixty-three corpses hud been extricated from the ruins of the burned opera-house. They wore mostly those of Italian artisans. Among tho dead is a Gorman doctor named Arnott. Signora Bianco, Douadie, one of the leading artistß, made her way from the stage to the street safely. One whole family of live persons, and another family of three persons, arc known to have perished.

London, March 25.—Tho American Consul at Nice telegraphs as follows :— Sixty-nine lives were lost by the opera house lire. No Americans or English wcro among tho victims. Public interment takes place to-ilay. Tho shops are all closed. THEORY OK THK THEATItK HOllKOlt. NEW" YoitK, March 26.—A telegram from Nice says: No list of tho victims of the Opera-llouso lire hasyct been published.Tho bodies in most cases uro calcined and disfig ured beyond recognition. The Strakosch in jured is Ferdinand. During the lire several people frantic with terror throw themselves from tho roof of the theatre and were duelled to pieces. It is clear that tho calamity wan the result of uupatdouablo negligence. Tho gaspipe behind the scenes had not been re paired or renewed during the last eleven years, and the escape ot gas which occurred four months ago was temporarily stopped with cement. cm the day bclorc the tire another escape was discovered during the rehearsal. Two inexperienced plumbers' apprentices were left to attcud it without Mipcrintcudencc. It is sup posed that they did their work imperfectly, consequently tho escaped gas con centrated behind the drops, and as soon as the burners were lighted in the wings the explosion occurred. The meter, which was the property of the town, and which did duty for both the stage and auditorium, was instantly turned oil', ami the theatre there by plunged in darkness; hence the panic aiul stampede which cost so many unfortu nate people their lives. Very few persons were injured, but the numbor of deaths was remarkably large. Two hundred ami lifty peoplo were crowded into a small gallery i with only one narrow door, which opened inward, as a means of egress. On a stout oak door in the passage were the words, "Door in caso of lire," hut it had not been opened for years, and it was im possible to break through it, The majority of the victims were residents of Nice or Ital ians. There was a public interment to day of eighty-live of the victims. Among the names are those of the German savant, Yon Arendt Schelliug, and Mine. MeQuay. Ihe latter is said to be English. Nice is in mourning, and the papers appear with black borders. The whole population of tho town turned out yesterday to attend the funeral of the victims, and tne spectacle was folemn and affecting in the extreme. Several bodies have been found in the ruins. The victims will number over 100.

A PERILOUS BALLOON AD VENTURE.

M. Alloith, the editor of the l'haro dti Littoral has aroused the interest of the Parisians by his accouut of an adventure in the balloon Gabriel, in comj any with Capt. Jovis aud Lieut Vivier. The balloon which started ou March G from Nice, in the morning, rapidly rose to a hciqht of GOOOft. The view was at first magnificent. The Alps and great part of Switzer land were distinctly visible, and the air was warm. But the clouds aud a thick mint soon hid everything from view, and when by degrees, and in spite of overy eflbit to prevent it, the baloou descended, the party fuund to their horror that they were about nine ruilos out at sea, when they had all along believed them selves to be going steadily in a north ca-terly direction. Once or twice the Gabriel was induced to rise again for a short time, but it soon returned to the water; and although, anchor, ballast, bags, boots, and every article of any weight were thrown from the car, it remained obstinately wedded to its new element. At times the baloon scudded along at a great rate, though the lower portion of the car was submerged, the water, which had at first only been ankle deep, tiuaily rising sufficiently high to stop M. Allicth's watch in liis waistcoat pocket, at 5.35 in the after noon, JNightfound tho unfortunate travellers in even a worse plight; and, to add to their difficulties, tho car begau to rock with the waves, and, although numbed with the bitter cold, they were compelled to hold ou tightly for bare life. At intervals they shouted together, but it was labour lost, and no answer was returned. At last, to their great delight, they espied the sail of an Italian craft bearing down upon thorn. A boat was speedily launch°d, and they were soon on board, in dry clothes, and making a hearty supper. The ship proved to be the Morosini, bnuml from Naples to Cette. The captain had, it appears, perceived the baloon during the afternoon, aud had actuallygone out ot his course for several hours in the hope of rescuing its passengers. But the haloon sped along mucl^fastcr than he, and Eignor Pencil was obliged to give up the chaw. The meeting in the dark was thus pure accident. The baloon had drifted about while the ship had held to its courso. The unlucky occupants of the orabriel were picked up about half-way between the mainland and Corsica, aud but for the timely appear ance of the Morosini they must inevitably have been lost. As it was, M.M. Jorvis and Alliothwere terribly exhausted by all they had gone througn. The party were landed at Villafranca at half-past nine on the fol lowing morning, and their re-appearance at Nice was the signal for a general ovation, their friends having despaired ot ever beholding them agaiu. As for tho balloon, as soon as thoy had quitted the car it shot once more into the air with lightning speed, and may be careering still for all anyono knows to the contrary,

THE PARLIAMENTARY OATH,

J'radlaugh; addressing hia supporters at Northampton, said that if he was re elected he would take the oath, and imme diately ask leave to introduco a bill substi tuting affirmations for oaths. THE "FREIEHEIT" CASE. HerrMost, of the "Freieheit," has been indicted at the Bow-street Police Court for publishing a libel concerning the late Czar and urging people to commit murder out side Her Majesty's dominions. Poland, in opening the case against Most, eaid that there was no wish, to interfere with tho freedom of the press, and that Most had a right to publish anything which a British subject might publish. He then read an article in the " Freieheit" of March 19th. Some persons applauded a passage laud ing the murder of the Tzar and were ejected. Poland pointed out that the arti cle contained a direct incentive to the murder of the Emperor of Germany, who was described as tho erstwhile grapeshot Prince of Prussia, and added that the act provided that persons who incited murder were guilty as a misdemeanor and liable to penal servitude of a maximum of ten or a minimum term of three years, or two years' imprisonment with hard labour. It would be a scandal to justice if the Act was not enforced against a person con nected with the publication of such articles. The police detailed the arrest of Herr Most and the fact that he described himself as the editor of the " Freieheit," owned the authorship of the article, and expected .prosecution. Notwithstanding the arrest of Most, he has resolved that the " Freieheit"' shall re appear. The new office is selected, and new type is purchased.
