THE rapidly increasing circulation of TRE
NEWS compels us to put the paper to press
at an earlier hour than heretofore, in order
to secure the delivery of our whole edition
in good season. To accomplish this result,
as well as to allow a proper classification of
all advertisements, we beg to give notice
that on and after Monday next, May 2, all
advertisements must be handed in at THE
NEWS OFFICE by half-past nine o'clock at
night, to iusure their publication on the fol?
lowing day. This rule applies to advertise?
ments coming through other newspaper of?
fices, as well as to those sent direct, and will
be rigidly enforced as to all advertisements,
excepting notices of meetings, notices of
deaths and funeral invitations.
This regulation will, we are confident, be
highly advantageous to advertisers, as it
will allow ns to put their announcements at
au early hoar in proper form before the read?
ers of THE NEWS. "We count, therefore, on
their kind assistance and co-operation in car?
rying out a rule which is now absolutely es?
sential to the proper conduct of our business..
Thc Encumbered Estates Court in Ire?
land.
By a recent report it appears that thevalae
of the lands sold in the Irish Encumbt-red
Estates Court from the commencement,
rather more than twenty years ago, to-the
present is ?:i8,03G,403.
The court was instituted with the view of
relieving the holders of entailed estates and
those having no mortgages upon them, and
it may be imagined from the above men?
tioned sum how largely those interested
availed themselves of the act. Its operation
fell very hardly upon many who were forced
to sell when they were unable in anv other
way to settle claims upon their property,
and, in consequence of the excessive de?
pression existiog in the country, saw the
lands which bad for ceuturies belonged to
them pass into strangers' hands at ridicu?
lously low prices.
There were frantic scenes in those days in
the Encumbered Estates Court, which sits
in one of the mansions formerly tenanted by
the ?lite of the Irish aristocracy in Henri?
etta street, Dublin. It was said that the late
Lord Gongh's splendid seat,Loughcooter Cas?
tle, in Galway, brought less than had been
spent thirty years before in the repairs and
decoration of the castle itself.
Although the act had in a considerable
degree the effect of relieving Ireland of a
pauper aristocracy, it was by no means at?
tended with results so salutary as its-pro?
moters anticipated.
It had been hoped that wealthy English?
men and Scotchmen would be induced to
purchase largely and put capital into the
country; but this was not done to any very
great extent, ullnough there aro a few nota?
ble examples of it, such as that of Mr. Allan
I Pollok, a Scotchman of large fortune, who
bought vast estales in Galway, which he
farms himself on a gigantic scale. More
thau three-foi.rtl?3 of the land was secured
by Irishmen; a good deal by persons who
managed to raise money and bought in their
land when it was put up. Lord Portarling?
ton, who, for example, owned immense
estates, with fabulous encumbrances upon
them, sold off his English property and
bought in a portion of his Irish lands.
"Many of the purchasers, however," says
an Irish poor-law inspector, "were land
"agents, or deputy agents, farmers, shop
"keepers and attorneys." These hitter, be
it remembered, have ever nourished on Irish
soil, and the best house in a provincial town
almost invariably belongs to one. "Many
"more were speculators. The eager desire
"to become proprietors of land for social
"distinction, profit, &c, induced men to
"purchase more than they could pay for,
"and thou they had to borrow. One of this
"class, in my district, borrowed ?20,000
"from an insurance company. "With the
"speculative purchasers increase of rents,
"as far as could be borne, was made to pro
"vide for interest on ca3lt and loans, and for
"the discharge of debts incurred. Under
"purchasers of this description, evictions or
"exorbitant increase of rents ensued."
A notable illustration of the squeezing
process to which the tenantry have, iu some
cases, been subjected by the new proprie?
tary, is afforded by the case of the celebra?
ted Martin property, in the wild Atlantic
washed district in Galway, known as Con?
nemara.
The la3t Mr. Martin, on succeeding to Bal
linahinch Castle and estates, extending over
some two hundred thousand acres, found the
property deeply embarrassed, and most as?
suredly was not the man to extricate it from
difficulty, or hi3 heiress might be enjoying it
now.
Having some connections of influence in
Londou, he contrived, a few years before the
famine, to get a large sum of money ad?
duced on the property, with the viow of
enabling him to make remunerative im?
provements.
However, whe* thc famine came, scarcely
a sixpence of reut could be collected, and
aa a consequence, no interest could be paid to
the Law Life Assurance Company, which had
advanced the money. MeanwhUe, Mr. Martin,
who had caught the dreadful famine fever,
died, leaving an only daughter, and toe Law
Life presently foreclosed. Miss Martin, who
had been regarded as the heiress to the vast
territory of Ballinahinch, married her cousin,
Mr. Goune Bell, and emigrated to America,
where she died a few days after her arrival,
at the Union Place Hotel in New York Cit}-.
The rent of this property, much of which
is bog aud mountain, at the time it came
into the possession of the company, amount?
ed to ?3000 or ?9000 a year. One-third has
now been sold to various people, and yet it
was stated lately in the House of Commons,
on competent authority, that the tenants on
the remaining unsold portion now pay a ren?
tal of some thousands a year in excess of
the rent paid in the first yenr of the purchase
ou the entire estate: while the tenants on
the lots sold by the corporation have suffered
still more severely by the change of owner?
ship, inasmuch as numbers of them have
been evicted, and the rent3 of those remain?
ing have iu some instances been raised from
40 to 100 per cent.
The member from Galway recently stated
that at an early period of the Encumbered
Estates Court he sold a property, and the
result was that the tenants upon it had their
rents doubled. "These poor people," he
said, "were now existing-existence was the
"only word for it: they were hardly living
"and were all ruined. Still thej were cling
"ing to their holdings; everybody knew that
"an Irish tenant would do anything rather
"than quit his holding."
It seems that although in certain cases,
such as those of Mr. Pollok and the late Sir
Benjamin Guinness, the millionaire brewer,
whose encumbered estates fell into the hands
of wealthy, large-minded men, the peas?
antry were the gaiuers, yet, upon the whole,
thev were better off under the old proprie?
tary, who, while doing nothing to improve
the condition of their lauds and of those
upon them comparatively, rarely resorted to
extreme measures.
THE Barnwell Sentinel is, we think, un?
reasonably touchy about the Blackville vian
damus case. We hope that we appreciate,
as well as our contemporary does, the im?
portance of the questions involved in that
case, and we cannot admit that there was
any sneer in speaking of it as a "muddle,"
aud as a "business." If there really is any?
thing awfully offensive in those innocent
looking words, we beg that they may be
understood in a purely Pickwickian sense.
