LONDON, Septeiber 28.- Mr. Parnoll's letter to Mr. Fitzgerald, President of the league in America, is hotly assailed by some of the leading government organs. The main Tory argument is that evictions are not general and arc diminishing. The Parnellites are charged with trumping up imaginary cases of eviction and represent ing a state of affairs that has no foundation in fact. The landlords, on the other hand, are held up to public ad liration as lenient and forbearing under ciunstances of ex treme provocation. They are described as reduced to the verge of ruin by the rc fusal'of their tenants to pay the rents justly due. Finally, the statement that evictions, instead of being general, are rapidly dimin ishing, is cappe( by the bold assertion that it would be next to impossible for Mr. Par nell to point out in these days a really harsh eviction. A singular illustration of the vclue of these declarations is fernished in the col umns of the tandurd itself, the most in fluential Tory daily in the kingdom. here we find a matter of fact repo t of a case of eviction, which for cold-baloodecd cruelty it would be ditilcult to beat. in the instance referred to, one of the members of the family to be evicted was a dying woman. The knowledge that she was at. the roint of death had no weight with the evictora. The scene that ensued cause( keen distress among the onlookers, who were powerless to interfere without bringing on themselves serious conse(Iuences. There have been ninny well authenticated cases of eviction of persons whose removal was almost cer tain death; but the Tory papcrs iitore them in their attacks on the ease na(le out by the Parnellites. A reference to the latest published returns of the Irish land commission falls to bear out the at.sertionts of the champions of eviction, and fully sus taius the allegations of the Parnellites. A reduction of the number of evictions is shown in certain localiths, but over the whole country the number is inereasctl. The Tories appear to have taken the soli tary cases of reduction and alplied them to the country at large. The Liberal press generally, except the extreme Unionist press, favorably notice Mr. IPareali's let t er. Reports current to-night at the clubs point to an extraordinary at tetmpt on the part of Bismarek to cripple British intlu enco in the present crisis in European af fairs, and the (enter of interest again shifts from Bulgaria to Eyl,t. tiisnai-ek, with the view of inducing F'rance to enter into a friendly understandinL; with GeUranitay, and abandon her seichmesof a 'war of revenge," has uiuertcaken, (' or(ling to the repiorts Inentioned, to direct the attenti 'n of French statesmen to a schemu+ of foreign conquest, the main objct of which is the ejection of the British from lX:yp, and the annexa tion of that countryv to the French enipire.

BARTOW, N. Y., September 80.-A ter rific explosion occurred at the Ditmar Powder Works at Baychester, on the liar Icm river branch of the New York and New Haven railroad, about 10 o'clook this morning, resulting in the instant death of four men employed in the factory. The explosion occurred in the packing house, a one-story frame building 20x30 feet, in the center of the grounds and about two Ihun dred yards from the main factory, a large building near the water, where the bulk of the giant powdler and nitro-glycorino used lo the ace(uclet works is manufactured. The n)Un were hard at work putting up lund packmng c:lrtridges, when suddenly an xplosion occurred, shattering the building to splinters and blowing four men to frag iniits. '[lhe explo(ing powder, of which there was a large quantity, shot up in the ir to a heigl. of fifty feet, a nd the splinters ;)f the buildini; were blown a mile away. The inames of the victims were Ernest D)ralcn, John lHusch, Max Shafholt and leinhart. Nothing was left of them cx aept fragments of their bodies. Ilands, feet, legs, arias, pieces of skulls, Iackboms and charred bita of flesh were scattercd in every direction from h;U to 0U feet from the packing house Max Crager, foreian of the works, says the explosion was caused by two muen shoot ing into the buihling,. Hie was in the pack ing house, and on going out saw tWo in who said they were shooting at squirrels. lie says he threat ned thema with arrest, and they becane iit pudent.
