Thk Land-League Issued to-night an adslrei to the Irish people at home and abroad. The following are its chief points: Fellow-countrymen and Friends: "At a crlyls of tremendous linjiortsnce to our country we confidently address you. The British Government of Ireland, obeying tho dictation of a prlviledired order of persons, a cruel and sclltsh clas, for centuries past a burden and a curse to our laud and peoples, have cast to the winds the traditions and pdnciplea of the llberallsat to which thcypttifiss to bo devoted. They kave set In mutb n the legal power of the tnto to arraign at tho eilminalb.tr the chb-f imtuof the Irish race, and with kiiu othcis of the most distinguished laborers In tho eouso of Ireland and ttor social regeneration. Although our movement k directed against a code of laws so oppre"!ve as to parolyze the mttiou.d Inliutry of Ireland; although wo have been assailed with mo4t venomous malignity, and pnrsoitt with most tmscrupttlouR fatxehoods, yet we cut solemnly declare. In the face of tho civilised worhl, that allourobjectaaroln keeitliig with erfect justice to all men; that all tho means we employ for the attainment of these objects are reasonable, po.tccable ami thoroughly legal, offending in no degree against the natural right, moral obligation, or Intelligent human law." Tho address then reviews tho work already accomplished by the League and continues: We never will jmusc or rest from tho lalmr wo have accepted until puhlle action has wholly swept away the system of landlordism which antagonizes our people. This great reform will be achieved, not by violence, threats, tho breach of any law, or tho evasion of any duty, but by continuing In that course which we havo hitherto pursued by teachlg the people not to becomotbcinselvcstkeftt-

struracutsot that despotism under which they havuso long suffered, and by directing pubHe opinion against the acts of any person who willfully damages the Interests of the people. We therefore apeal to you, fellow-country-nun, friends of public freedom, to create a national fund, the primary" object of which will bs to provide puch defense as legal skill can atford to men who have stood in the vangMa. of this movement. All that money can do will be done to gain a victory over the leaders of tke Irish people." A Vlrglala TrHerily. IttciiMO.M), Va., Xuvembcr 0.
