ROSCOK CONKLINO. ' Although iu all cases of great political excitement there are rumors afloat which have no foundation in truth, and party politicians who attribute to each other acts and motives less worthy than their cooler judgment would venture to indorse, yet at the present juncture, more than at any recent previous period, we perceive Indications of a blind hostility between the leaders of the two wings of the disrupted Republican party, aud which must result fatally unless it gives way to a spirit of mutual concession and lorbearance. In the State of New York, especially, there are issues the most serious pending, and during their abeyance all eyes ate turned, from time to time, toward the prominent statesman whose portrait we present herewith to our readers. Aud as there are probably some who are not fully acquainted with the salient points of his career, abrief resume of the latter will not be Inappropriate here. Mr. Conkiing was born iu Albany, N. Y., October 30, 1829, and is. consequently. In his fiftysecond year. He early studied law. and iu 1840 removed to Ctica, where he followed its practice with success. In 1850 he became District Attorney for Oneida County, and in 158 was elected Mayor of Utica, his popularity and influence increasing steadily the while. In 1855 he was sent to Congress to represent his District, and was reelected three times. Iu 1S67, 1873 and 187 he was elected to the United States Senate, where his term would not have expired until 1885 had he not tesUned his seat on the now well-known difference of opiuion between him and the late lamented President, In relation to certain appointments to office, on which he held that he and his colleague, Mr. Piatt, should have been consulted, as they were Senators for the State in which the appointments were made. The long and fruitless struggle at Albany which followed this, and which characterized the efforts of Mr. Conkling and his friends to obtain the indorsement of the state Legislature for the course that he and his colleague bad pursued has now passed into history. But the end is not yet The sudden demise of the late Chief Executive, and the accession to the Presidential Chair of General Arthur, who has long been the sincere friend of Mr. Con kling, has turned the tables in favor of the latter; but to what extent yet remains to be seen. One thing, however, is certain, and that is, that changes wül take - place in the Cabinet immediately; but whether Mr. Conkling will accept a seat in it does not app ar. That he will be oiTered one is most reasonable to suppose, tinder the circumstances; for he is not only a tried and trusty irieud of President Arthur, but a man of the most undoubted ability and Integrity. THE LEAGUE LEADER. Parnell, th IrlsU Agitator, Follows His Former Associates to Jail The ArrestIntense Excitement. Dublin, Oct. 13. Charles S. Parnell was arrested this morning at Kingsbridge Station while on his way to attend the Kildare Convention. It is not yet known with what offense he is charged. It is understood that the determination to arrest Parnell was only reached at yesterday's Cabinet Council. A warrant for his arrest was issued to the detectives of Dublin on the arrival there of the Chief Secretary for Ireland (Förster), who left London immediately after the close of the ; Cabinet Council. Parnell was arrested on two warrants signed by Forster. Chief Secretary for Ire land. He charged him with inciting people to intimidate others frpm paying their just rent, and with intimidating tenants from taking the benefit of the Land Act Parnell ota a n1r. Vilmalnhsm Tail was taken to Kilmainham Jail. Dcbli5, Oct 13. Parnell was arrested at Morrison's Hotel, where he was stopping. Inspector Mallon called at the hotel at 9 o'clock and sent word up to the Land League leader, who was still in bed, that he would like to see him. The hotel porter returned word he would be happy to see the In spector as soon as he was dressed. Soon after he sent for Mallon, who. with Detective ohendon, went Hpstairs, rarneii met mm pleasantly, anu asked. "Do you intend to arrest me?" "Yes," replied Mallon, handing him the warrant still wet with Hörster s signature. for the Chief Secretary returned from London bv the mail at 8 o clock. Parnell then glanced over the warrant and said "All right" He put on his hat, and walked down stairs with the policeman. A cab was waitinz at the door, and the three men entered it. "Kilmainham Prison," cried Mallon to the driver, and they drove off. There were four other policemen in citizens' clothes in another carriage. On arrival at Kilmain ham. Parnell was at once assigned a celL There was no demonstration, as no one knew about the arrest beyond the parties concerned. Morrison's. Hotel has been carefully watched from the time Parnell entered last evening. The officer who made the arrest first saw Parnell in his . bed-room., lie allowed him to finish dressing and pack his clothing. rarneu was calm, tie was warmly welcomed by the "Suspects in Kilmainham Jail.

It is reported that the arrest 01 Parnell is only a preliminary to still more vigorous action against the Land League. The arrest was affected very quietly at ö:a this morn ing. The police appealed to Parnell to avoid all delay so as not to permit the fact to become public Moderate Liberals and Conservatives approve of the arrest It is believed Parnell' s speech at Woxford, Sunday last, fnrnished the Gov ernment' technical justification lor the arrest The League is now (3 p. m.) sitting. It is expected it will publish a manifesto. It is said John Dillon, Member of Parlia ment for Tipperary. will assume the Pres dency of the League. The military force in Dublin is held in readiness for action in the event of an emergency. ' The Secretary of the Land League was interviewed shortly after Parnell's arrest He expressed much astonishment, exclaiming excitedly, "Let them come on; we are ready for them." Father Sheehey, Patrick Egan and V. B. Dillon went to Paris to-day. On recei pt at Naas yesterday of the intelligence of .Parnell's arrest all shops were shut and black flags, displayed from many windows. .' ' THI NKW8 RECEIVED WITH CHEERS. Lohdow, Oct. 13. The Pall Mall Gazette says: . "There is no reason beyond idle gossip for the talk of a division in the Cabinet.
The section of the Cabinet which doubted the efficacy of coercion never denied that circumstances mav arise which would justify repression. The ministers who strove the hardest far the land act have the best right to make short work of violence and incitements thereto." , Referring to the arrest of Parnell, the Gazette says: "What has been done has been done unanimously. Gladstone was informed the arrest had been accomplished after he arrived at Guild Hall, and his announcement of the fact was received with uproarious cheering, the whole of the large assemblage of guests rising and waving their hats and handkerchiefs." TO AMERICAN LAND LEAGUES.
inkw 1 ork, uct l.i. Patrick ord issues an address to the Land Leagues of America, anent the arrest of Parnell, in which he says: "Irishmen must retain their impulses. Ileasoti, not passion, should rule the hour. Never did the Land League have abetter opportunity to manifest its moral power than now. Never did it become the duty of the Irish people to exhibit the virtues ot self-possession, discipline and obedience to tha Land League more than now. Through enlightenment and organization the people will assuredly come into the possession of their inheritance. Much has been accomplished looking to this end already. fJladstone himself openly confessed the Land League is the only Govern ment in Ireland now with any moral force behind it. Hence he makes war behind it. He presents arms to the majesty of ideas, which are invulnerable and immortal. No man who neueves 111 tue superiority of mind over brute matter can entertain a doubt respecting the final issue." ULAIST0Xr-'8 ANNOUNCEMENT. London, Oct. 13 In announcing the arrest of Parnell he said: "I have been in formed the first step has been taken toward the vindication of law and order, rights of property and the first elements of civilization by the arrest of a man who, entirely from motives which I do not challenge or examine, lias made mmseii prominent in an attempt to destroy the authority of law. We are not at issue with the people of Ireland. I firmlv believe a majority of the tenants earnestly desire a fair trial of the land act The power with which we we are struggling is that which endeavors to say how far peopie shall obey the law. Ave have no fear of the people of Ireland, but do fear lest many more should become demoralized or intimidated." DUBLIN IN A FERMENT. New York, Oct 13. A cable to the Irish World says: Parnell was arrested in his bed this morning, and immediately lodged in Kilmainham Jail. Ireland is in a fer ment. Dublin is in a terrible excitement The city is an armed camp, showing this has been premeditated, and prepared for action. io event In the history 01 Ireland has so stirred Dublin, and the only parallel is Paris at the destruction of the Bastile. Quinn, Secretary. Noon The condition of things at this hour is awful. The wave of indignation gathers force as the moments fly. and there is no telling when it may break or what the consequences may he. lhe Land League Lxecutive is at this moment sitting with John Dillon in the chair. The worst is being prepared for. It is rumored the Government will take military possession of the Land League headquarters, and proceed to the utmost extremity of brute force to repress the organization. A calm but delib erate and decisive action can be looked for from the men at the head. If men in Amer ica stand firmly by us there need be no fears of the ultimate result. Joseph H. Quinn, Secretary of Land League. ALL LEADERS TO BE ARRE8TED. Dublin. Oct. 13. It is stated the Execu tive has determined to arrest all the leaders of the Land League.

Little Rock, Ark., Oct 9. A new and sensational phase was made public to-day in the case of the train robbers. It will be remembered the passenger train on the Iron Mountain was robbed by three men on the night of the 2d of September, who were pursued and captured on the 28th- -one in Texas and two in the Indian Nation. They were brought to Washington, and a special terra of Court held yesterday, when the robbers pleaded guilty to fourteen indictments each, receiving five years on each indictment, making a term of seventy years for each robber. The pursuing party that captured btepbens and Delany consisted of four men, named Huddleston, Belvins, Moore and Dollahide. When an es ted the robbers had about $9.000. After counting the money Huddleston proposed that the captors divide the money among themselves. Belvins objected, claiming the money ought to be secured to the Railroad Company. The subject of their conversation run on until it was finally agreed to divide the money equally among the four, in the presence of Stephens and Delaney. In consideration of the latter keeping the matter secret, each of the four swore an oath he would annually pay to the families of the train robbers $100. and leave no means untried to secure thei r release from the Penitentiary after conviction. The reason for not releasing them at once was because a reward of $10,000 waited their delivery at Hope. On the route Belvins continued to manifest dissatisfaction at the transaction. Reaching the village of Mineral Springs the party took quarters at the hotel for the night During the night Huddleston asked belvins where he had his money. The latter replied "under his pillow." Huddleston said, "We may be robbed, mine's between the matresses," and advised Belvins to place his there also. He did so, when Huddleston asked him "to go down town and get some cigars," and he replied, "it. was too late," when Huddleston insisted, and Belvins turned to leave the room when Huddleston's pistol was discharged and leaping back Belvins inquired the cause of the shot Huddleston replied, "the pistol went off accidentally." Nothing further occurred during the night In the morning the party continued their journey to Hope. Passing along the road Huddleston's pistol was again discharged. the ball whistling past Uelvms' head. Quickly turning and drawing his revolver, Belvins remarked: "The accidental discharge of your pistol is getting monotonous." Belvins deposited the money with friends, fearing he would be killed if he retained it The party finally reached Hope, turned over the prisoners to the authorities and came to this city to receive the $10,000 reward offered by the State for their capture. All caDtors aoneared at the trial at Wash ington yesterday, when Belvins divulged the whole matter to Superintendent Buchanan of the Iron Mountain Road. Huddleston, Moore and Dollahide were ex amined separately. Each made affidavit they know nothing of the whereabouts of any money. Subsequently Moore approached Buchanan and stated the money could be procured. The train robbers, Stephens and Delaney, were interHewed and testified to the facts given above, ind declared they would not have divulged the affair if the parties themselves had aot given itaway. Huddleston, Stephensand Defanev.confronted with the evidence, gave way and made a clean breast 01 tne wnoie ining, j and promised immediate restitution if per- J mutea to go lor tne money, naving secretea it along the road. The amount is several thousand dollars less than the reward due them from the Railroad Company for the capture of the train robbers. It is not known whether they win De prosecuted or not, dui it is supposed they will be. An Important Decision. Attorney General Baldwin yesterday made public the following important opinion: Indianapolis, October 8, 1881. Auditor of Benton County: Dear Sie-1 think Section 157 of the act of 1881 means what it says, and that there is no Interest to be charged. What makes me think so is. that the new law reads differently from the old law. Turn to page 199, Acts of 1879, and see tne auference by comparing the two sections. Also see the original section. IT2 of the tax act ef 1872, 1 R. 8., 114. I do not think there are any additional penalties in the shape of interest aft r a tax is a year overdue, for then the tax sale will take place and these penalties that go to purchasers attach. I notice, however, a great many r-ections speak of penalties, interest" and costs Sections 172. 178, 182, 18f, 488. Evidently these sections are copied from the old law without taking into consideration the change in Section 157. I think that under the tax law of 1881 penalties take the place of interest I find but one exception, and that is provided for in Section 197, vis.: after sale and purchase of delinquent lands, when the purchaser pays delinquent taxes, he recovers ''Interest at 6 per cent per annum." If there is any other case where interest is recoverable I have not found 1U . V. a. uiuiwia. Toads have been known to clean the seal lice from plants.

Fiddler finished a bad third, with Retreat fourth and Fortissimo and Ambassadress next in the order namel. Americanus, The Star and Petronel were the last three. . i Retreat followed Foxhall, when the latter made an effort but was eased when pursuit was seen to be hopeless.

Time of race. 4:01. This evening Foxhall declined to his former position 25 to 1 against him for the Cambridgeshire stakes. New York, Oct 1L James R. Keene, of course, was delighted over the victory of Foxhall. His winnings, he said, would be upward of $500,000, and operators of sport ing proclivities have won all the way from $1,000 to $10,000. Keene himself says Foxhall was bacited to win $2,500,000. A great deal of American money was ou him. Walton, of St James Hotel, this city, sends a message lioai England, or what purports to be such is exhibited, stating he won 40,000. Keene says of his horse: "I think Foxhall the best three-year-old in the world. 1 thought he would win the Czarewitch but there was so much fuss made about the mistakes in rating, and one thing and another, and he had given several horses a year, which amounts to fourteen pounds, that latterly I began to have doubts. But Forhall has justified the faith we all bad in him, and as an American I am proud of the victory." ' JEROME PARK RACES. Jeboxe Park, N. Y., Oct 11.
