He belonged to a laud-owniutf family, and many people have for a long time believed him to be the leal Governor. The crime ia more inex plicable when one considers the good temper of the Irish, who are rejoicing over the re lease of the suspects." Mr Dillon, in the course of an interview, said that he deeply deplored the sorrowful tidings, nud that he fully concurred in tbe opinions ou tbe outrage exprtssed by Messis Farnell and Davitt. Mr Biggar deeply deplores the tragedy, and declares that it is all the more lament able, ns Lord Frederick Cavendish was one of the least obnexious of the Liberal members. OSC&.B WltiDß'B SURPRISE. When the news was communicated to Oscar Wilde, the apathetic poet, ho ex claimed—" What I Thomas Burke assassi nated ! The friend of my father, and he who has so often dined at our house ! And Lord Cavendish, too I I don't see why they should wish to assassinate mediocrity, tor be was just an easy goiug, pleasant, mediocra gentleman, whom no one could havo a grudge ngairjst. Sucb, too was Burke, tie had filled many official posi tiona, but none that brought him in con tact with the Irish people. The assassina tions were undoubtedly the result of in toxication at what tbo Irish thought a com pleto victory. They turned liberty into license; but when liberty comes with hands daubad in blood, it is hard to shake hands with her. Bat thon ne forget how much England is to blame. She is morally reap ing tho lruit of seven contnries of injustice. Tl/erc muai be trouble ahead, I presume martial law will be proclaimed, and the Conservative Party come into power again, though I don't care to see It there. Of course we must not blame tho whole liiah nation for the acts of a tew men, but I am sorry to hear the news, and hope it is. not true." AN AMERICAN LAND LEAGUER ON THE CRIME. The Hon. P. A.'Collins, the ex-President of tho Land League of America, says of tho murder: "It ia wicked. It is a monstrous thing to happen at this time. Until it is known who are guilty of this terrible crime, it is as uaeloia to speculate upon the effect us it was to speculate upon the tirst news of Garliold's assassination, when. Guitoau was not known. If it should be discovered, as wo all pray it will, that tho 'assassins have no connection with the Irish National Party, it will, of course, have no effect beyo id temporarily arresting tho proposed humano and remedial policy of the Govern ment," LAND LEAGUE MANIFESTO. LONDON, May 7. —The following mani festo of the Laud League was adopted this afternoon at a hurriedly summoned meet ing, held at tho Westminster Palnco Hotel: • To the people of Ireland : On the eve of what seemed to be a bright future for our country, that evil destiny, which hns ap parently pursued us for centuries, has struck at our hopes another, blow, which cannot J>9 exaggerated in its disastrous consequences. In this hour of sorrowful gloom, wo . venture to give expres sion to our profoundest sympathy with the people of Ireland in tbe calamity that has befallen our cause through this horrible deed, and with those who determined at the last hour, that a policy of conciliation should sup plant that of terrorism and National dis trust. SVe e-ruestly hope that the attitude and action of the Irish people will show to the wirld that the assa s'nition was -such an unlooked-for event that it had startled us almost to the abandonment of hope for our country's future,' and deeply and religiously abhorrent to their every feeling and instinct. We appeal to you to show, by every manner ot expression, that amidst the universal feeling ot horror which tho assassina tion has excited, no people feel so deep a detestation of its atrocity, or so deep a sympathy with those whoec hearts must be scared by it, as the nation upon whose pro»peii y and reviving hope 9it may enia'l consequences more ruinous than thoce that have fallen to the lot of unhappy Ireland during the present generation. Wo feel tb.it no act that has ever been perpetrated iv our country duripg the exciting struggles of tho past fifty years has so stained the name of hospitable Ireland as this cowardly and unprovoked asiassina. tion of a friendly stranger, and we belieTO that until the murderers of Lord Cavendish and JVlr Burke are bronght to justice, that stain will sully our country's tair name, (Signed), Charles S. Farnell, John Dillon, Michael Davitt.

All tho Irish members heard from concur in this declaration, and orders for the immediate printing and poatiDg of the manifesto thioughout Ireland have been given. Mr Parßcll has sent telegrams to the Mayors of Dublin, Cork, Watprford, and Limerick, suggesting that they imme diately call a ineotint; of their respective corporations to denoance tbo crime.

THE NEXT OF KIN FRAUDS.

A Cunning Scheme.

Hundreds of Pook people Dupbe,

At the time the mail left England the ■whole country was ringing with an unex ampled aeries of fraud?, perpetrated la Birminnham and other large towns, by a gang of accomplished scoundrels. The " Daily Telegraph" ot April 19, gives a brief resume of the leading features of the case in a long and interesting article, from which we extract the following :—" There is," says our contemporary, " wailing in the Midlands. The Potteries are despondent, and the black country may be expected to put on an extra suit of mourning ; while even Lancashire and the Norih are plunged in the deepest gloom. If the reason for the lamentation in the regions named is sought after, it will bo found in the fact that a large number of persons in Birming ham and Wolverhampton, Bilaton and Manchester, have been shockingly duped nnd 'most egregiously swindled -by what appears about as cunning a scheme of nine teenth-century imposture &b could easily be devised. The company calleditself "the International Law Agency," andadvertised extensively for all persons bearing certain common names, who would infallibly hear of Bomethiog very much indeed to their ad vantage if they would only communicate with " J. S. .Rogers, Esquire, 8.A.," at the Birmiß°bam offices. V* ith impartial zcai, "J S. .Rogers; 8.A.," devoted himself to t iking in the credulous of all ages and both sexes; and it need hardly be said that, ds his advertisements were skilfully framed; and his offices redolent of the highest res pectabilit^; he drew literally hundreds of silly flies into ' his Web. ■ Having got them there, the first thing to; be done was to impress them with the idea that they really were the ■ long lost heirs of the1 missing next ■'of ■ km. Con fident assertions to that effect were made, and were backed up.it appears, by docu mentary evidence concocted to add colour to the fraud. Pees were then demanded, and in almost eveiy caie seem to have been paid In a spirit of confidence. The claimants to1 tho estates, or the property, or 'whatever jt might be, were next ordered to get mam a»e certificates, or death or baptismal re tards, of Jnembars of their family ; further they were told- that they would hare, as a necessary formal preliminary before coming into their fortunes, to empower the com pany, or the " &.A.," to act for them, which could only be done by granting them a power of attorney, price abont £5. In other cases administration bonds were represented to be absolutely essential, for which the modest charge of £8 appears to have been 'exacted, or demanded, by this beneficent International' Agency. Pro ce6'dings have already been coinmericed agiinst one or two of the supposed pro moters' at Manchester, and we shall shortly bear more of their secret for luring the hbarded gold out of the pockets and! pnrpes of flourishing shopkeepers and poor -widows. ' "J. S. Rogers, 'inquire, 8.A.," does not seem to have yet turned

up to vindicate himself and his unparalleled company from tho serious charges brought against him and it.

Unlike the Kurnenux frauds, thore munt have been several wily partners engbged in this scheme, which, whatever its ultimate character may turn out to be, has, at any rate, been only too successful in drawing money those who could ill-spare it. Wo doubt there was some clever rogue at the bottom ot it all who knew what human nature really is. He was perfectly aware, before he laid his ingenious traps, that there were funds lying dormant in the Court of Chancery ; he knew, moreover, the still more important fact that there is no apparent limit to the credulty of man or woman. Whether actuated by greed, or buoyed up by hope in its most elastic form, it is still very certain that one-half the human race deem it probable that they are the natural heirs to the strange success of Kortuuatiu. The day* of wish ing caps and inexhaustible purses may have passed, but the flavour of them re mains behind in the form of ingenious frauds whicb, it conceived, could not pos sibly be executed without a guileless innocence on the part of the dupe almost beyond belief. Humour has it that a Treasury prosecution is to be started, to put au end to this Birmingham and Man chester credulity scheme, that outdoes even the Napoleonic strategy of Miss Furneaux. As everybody knows, there is really a vast amount of motey locked up in Chancery and elsewhere, which, as it is not claimed, cannot consequently bo distributed. Heira are continually being wanted, legatees occasionally have a habit of not turning up, and the Bank of Knglaad has trouble now asd thou in the matter of unclaimed dividends. Starting with these hcti before him, it seoms to havo struck a student of human nature, who was not particularly scrupulous, that ho could make money out of this wide • spread spirit of Micawberism. With the aid of advertisenmnts, he attracted into his net the fish who had a lingering hopo that s»me thing would turu up to give them fortunes, reversions, properties aud legacies, of which they had previously heaid. The com pany's liability was, no doubt, strictly limited, which is more than can be said for the credulity of its dupes. Not one of them is supposed to have gained a farthing through the instrumentality of the com pany. It may be premature to discuss the crimintlity of the persons implicated ; possibly the astute Bachelor of Aria im agined that ho could not bo adjudged guilty of fraud if he £;ot his victim to sign a docu ment agreeing to be swindled. It ia a lamentable fact that for every kaate there are at least a hundrod f sols, and, though It is impossible to excuse such an offence as this unblushing blood-sucking, which had on it the gloss and veneer of re peccability and at least a substratum of truth, still it does not say much for the wisdom of Birmingham and its neighbour hood when the Inhabitants aro so "child like and bland " as to credit the romances of Miss Furneaux, and to believe that every "Jones, Sniitb, Stokes, Nokes, Brown, and Thompson " is the mysterious heir to a phantom property and the right ful claimant to states that tho Court of Chancery is only too happy to deliver up.

BUSHRANGING REVIVED.

Mail Coach Stuck Up.

THE " Sydney News" /gives tho following par ticulars of the sticking up of tho mail ooaoh from Armidale to Invorell, eighteen miloafrom Tin gha, and only three hundred yards from' Ooofß public house:—" A man came out of the bußh and presenting a revolver, ordered the driver to deliver tho mail bags. The drivor'gavo up tho Tingha and Kangaroo Camp bags, but tho bush rangor, percoiving a largo sack strapped to the Back of the coach, ordered it to be h»ndedovor-. This having been done, the bushranger told the driver to proceed on his journey. The latter, hdwevcr.i turned his horsea to go back to tho hotel, when tho bnshranger threatened to shoot him if ho did not at once drive- lowardtt Tingha —his destination. , After the coach.had pro ceeded a short distance, tho bushranger gallopod up and asserted that the driver had more bags. The latter denied this, affirming that the Inver elt bags had been sent by a mail boy on horse back, via Newstcad and Elsmore. The bush ranger then rode away, instructing the driver to tell ihe Tingha police that he (tho bushranger) •vVosKiley. who "stuck up" tho Warialda and Yetman mail coach some time ago. He added that he would leave the bags and all those spare letters which ho did .not want near a certain tree, where they could be found, if sent lor, in two hours. Two other Inverdl bags wereso oretcd under the passengers', scat in tho coach, and were not discovered, as the bushranger did not dismount. Tho largo bag taken from the back of the coach cantained newspapers only. In the other bags which were taken there was little of any value.

PARLIAMENTARY.

[Feoii «uk Special Rkportbh.]

3 WELLINGTON, this day. , Ms Pit acock intended calling a meeting oi > the Auckland members to consider the 1 University Site Bill, which provides for 1 transferring the Government House and t grounds to the Auckland University trust, s It is probable, however, that the Govern. > meat will take up the Bill, in which event 1 the meeting of members- will not be ' necessary. It La-i been discovered that > the use of the house at Auckland was 1 asiuredto the present Gov«r«or,audtlierefore ' auy change could only take effect at thu - expiration of his term of cilice, but as that ' is expected very soon no inconvenience to the professors already advertised for iv England is likely to arise. The building ■will probably be available fur their use on arrival. With reference to the proposed transfer of native endowment at Faruell to tho Grammar School Trust, it has been found that the grant which legally created tbia trust lml uever bcea made out, and the lunch are ordinary Crown lands. Any Bill giriug the trust to the "Grammar School, therefore, would net have to provide tor any diversion of an original trust. The pro posal to apply for dedication, of the Maori hestelry in Mechanics' Bay to thu Grammar School will not be pressed, the institution being still of practical ute to the natives visiting, Auckland. Mr Macandrew intends, I bslieve, to bring forward some meaiurc shortly, embodying his repeatodly expressed views on the question of paper currency. AucJcland'Taruna/ci Itatlway. Tawhinu has addressed another letter to Sir Georgo Grey, expreaaiog himself favour able to the construction of a railway through his cuuutry, ou certain terras. It is not beyond the range of possibilities that the satires wilt give grants of laud in aid of thu project. Some opposition is threatened in certain portions to tho construction of the railway by that route, the object beinj; to force it via Taupo. It will be alleged that there U no practicable route owing to the difftaultcharaoterof the country, but the objection is easily capable of dis proof. During the Grey administration an inspection of tho country waß permitted by private arraagoment, find it was definitely ascertained taut no seritus engineering difficulty exuted. It would follow iho Taianalci coast to Mokr.u, beysnd which a perfectly easy route is obtainable. The completion of this road is bo essential to ensuring; tho removal of thu native bug bear from Auckland that it is earnestly hopod go vetted interest will be permitted to interfere with it. important JKumours. A report is current in thu lobbies that Messrs Johnston and Dick will retire from tho Cabinet, ranking three vacaociea, with a viewto the formation «f :tcoalition Ministry, Prominent Miniitenalioti,howuvcr, declare there- is no foundation for the report, and that the Government do not recognise tho necessity for such a course, being couiideut of a majority, Mr Fish, who has b*on thrice Mayor of Dunedin, is credited with angling very iv. dustit n»)y for a portfolio, and will net bs very particular from which side it is ob tained. There are minima of an Oppotitiea at tack upon tho Goveroment over the Fate tere purchase, the handsome profit obtained by the tiaiocUtion beiug used as a weapon of atiault upon the Cabinet for abandoning their hold on the block. lmptest Supply Bill An iuproit Supply Bill of £250,000 will be passed through all stages to-day, as soon as the Chairman of Committees is elected. The payment of the Civil Service ''scriws" is dependent on the passage of this measure. Governor Sails for Fiji. The Governor goes to Fiji in the Miranda within the next day or two. The Kelson eniiiins here for a fortnight, and prvbably visits Auckland afterwards, bhe is a huge looking vessel in height and breadth, but very short in length, she has been thrown open to the public for three days each week. Northern Affairs. Mr Hobbi has Already taken steps to have the wants of his district in tho matter of toads and bridges properly ropreieuted in the public works proposals. Votoa will certainly be taken for all works promised by the Premier during his tour of the dis tricts. A subsidy will probably be granted for duly-qualified medical officer for the natires at Hokiangi, and Mohi Kii-ffhia is working well with Mr liobtia In this matter, and has submitted to Minis ter Ystatomcnts showing the largo amount of low (over and other sickness. Mr Hobba prooentod this afternoon a ffetition from 35 natives re l'uhupahu block Ho. 1, consisting of about 2p,0Q0 acres valuable kauri foroot land between the Bay of Islands and Kaipsra. The Government had made adraupcs ou this block, under a proclamation to Marsh Brown and others, but since then the Native Lands Court his decided that these men have no cUiiu, and tie true owners now petition that tho proclamation bo removed, in order that they may sull to the hi<>he«t bid er. They have been offered 15s for every kauri ttoe. This will amount to au enormous sum of money, the forest being without doubt ouo of the finpat iv Sew Zealand. Fyke's Education Bill. Mr Fyke's Kducntiou Act Amendment Bill provides that every school conducted in accordance with the provisions of " The Education Act, 1877," and the resolutions framed thereunder, and in respoct of the qualifications of teachers, course of instruo tiou, attending at school, and inspection by an Inspector of the Board of Education, shall be deemed a public school within the meaning ot the said Act. Mo grants shall be made under this Act to any school in respect of any instruction iv religious subjette, nor thall it be required that the schools shall be in connection with a religious denomination, or that religious Instruction shall be given in the school. Every such school shall be.entitled to re ceive the same copibation allowance as Is granted to public schools established under the stid Act,provided that no such schools shall be entitled to a share in such funds, unless the avorage number of pupils attend ing the same be twenty-five or more. Harbour Board BUI. The Schedule of the Auckland Harbour Board Bill has just been certified to in the Surveyor General's office as correct, thus advancing ia a stage oy Mr Swanaon'd in« dustry. Caucus of Greyltes. A private meeting of the immediate sup porters of Sir George Grey, who cannot see their way to working with the Macandrew- M( ntgomery lead, was held to-day. It is their intention to take up an independent position in the Horuo, and, though not acting altogether us un organised party, under definite leadership, fro work together, and consult with each other on questions of interest. This is Sir Georgo Groy's wish, and a similar policy of independence will be pursued by himself.. If, however, a vote of .want of confidence were tabled he would doubtless vote for it, re serving to himself the right of independent action immediately after the vote was carried, and independence,'in this case; means placing conditions'' ou the successful patty that Would render them incapable of forming a Government unless in harmony with Sir George Grey's views. "■ Proposed Hallway. Mr Vesey Stewart will be here next week to endeavour to carry oat Ghtulwick's scheme of forming a railway company to connect Tauranga with Auckland. Five hundred thoHsand pounds, was the sum sought to be raised, hut the scheme has now assumed a bolder aspect, and more money ia required. The railway is still intended to be made, but the projectors hope to induce the Government to raise \ their proclamation over 50,000 acres ■of native land, contiguous to 'ihe railway' route which theyiotend purchasing. They offer to1' refund to the Government all monies advanced to the natives' on theie several blocks oi land, to place 200 settlers chareon, within a certain time, on the same conditions as Stewart made witb Messrs Grant and Fouler, at the Ie and to lodge Nciv Zealand debentures with the Government, (the amount not stated) as a guarantee oi their bona fides and intention to carry their proposals into- effect. If suc cessful ia their negotiations it is under stood that Mr Stewart then goes Borne as agent for the company. '
