Across the Atlantic a dynamite explosion 
which partly ruined the Victoria Railroad 
Station in London, has caused great excite¬ 
ment, and is attributed to the Irish. More 
dynamite has been discovered at the Charing 
Cross and Paddington Stations, and some in 
private houses. It is not at all unlikely that 
popular excitement will vent itself on the 
harmless Irish residents in England, while 
tbe feeling is rapidly gaining force that 
it is intolerable that the country should 
be constantly exposed to losses and annoy¬ 
ances from tbe Irish malcontents from tbe 
United States. The Parnellites in Parlia¬ 
ment strongly condemn these outrages.
