It'is the last of a series intended to work great and wholesome ohanges in Ireland?the fire^ being the disestablishment of the English Church, and the second tho regulation of the Irish land tenures. The design was to secularise university education, without giving umbrage tb the Catholics. Its basis was a university embracing several existing colleges in' Ireland, Catbolio and Protestant, wherein the university facul? ty proper should tench nothing whioh has the remotest bearing on ecclesiasti? cal questions, but leaving tho separate colleges to follow freely thoir Protestant or Catholic, bias. Every advantage was to be put equally within the power of the adherents of each faith. Intended to pleaso two sides, it secured the ap? proval of neither. As a concession, it went too far for the church at home and for the bulk of the English people, who feared tho precedent it would make, and yet it fell far short of the demands of the Catholics, both in England and Ire? land. Even the Liberal Irish members Toted against it. What was exoogitated j with the greatest care, and framed with ' apparently conscientious oonvictiong of | its justice, its generous concessions and beneficent tendency, has fallen between two extremes of opiuion, and caused the . defeat of the Ministry, whiqh staked its official existence upon it. Gladstone is justly disheartened, and Derby and Dis ' raeli, tbe leadora of the Conservative party, decline tho responsibility-of un? dertaking to form a now Cabinet. The old riddle is unanswered; the old pro? blem still asks for solution. Will this beautiful, fertile and roman? tic island of brave men and iuir women, and virtuous as fair, the home of piety and enthusiasm, of genius and oourage, of eloquence and poetry?the land which produced Burke, Goldsmith, Sheridan, Gurfon, Moore and the "confederates" of 1703?shall it ever have internal peace, and a government which will bring to its tender and brave-hearted people the happiness for which they long, and to whioh thoy are entitled? Countries, like men, live fast in these days. Great ohanges are abroad. The discrepancy between England, and Ire? land is deep, radical and unchangeable, while their present relations continue. The best efforts of English statesmen can never devise measures which will be unobjectionable to Ireland. The onion betweonlhe two countries rests on force, ?and is hateful to Irishmen.

Dear Sjb: Xoat reporter took a wider latitude in the'use of the name of Col. Thomas,, in the Ohaires case, as reported in this morning's Phcenix, than the facts warrant.' The statement that I allowed Mr, Ohaires to visit Col.

A Chewless Snip.?Tho Liverpool Globe's correspondent at Gibraltar writes: "There is a little vessel in this port whose recent history is even still more, mysterious than that of the Murillo, and, perhaps, similarly tragical to that of the Northdeet. The Mary Celeste, an A*ue rican.brigantip e, was fallen in with by a British vessel, some 400 miles East of the Azores, and brought by her to Gi? braltar, on December 13. When dis? covered, ehe was tinder foremast stay? sail and jib, and under this light oanvaa she had been'pursuing her way for ten days, without a soul on board, the last entry on the ship's log being on Novem? ber 24.

(Silber of plunder or of peril, why she was ever deserted at all? is still an absolute mystery, for up to the present moment no trace has been found of the lady or child, of the cap? tain, or of any one of the crew." -??-? # ? ? A youthful band of assassins and rob? bers has just been discovered by tho po? lios in Paris, The oldest of the crimi? nals is but twenty-seven, and the youug est seventeen. In all, the gang number? ed sixteen persona, three of whom were yoang girls not over eighteen. Many robberies have been traoed to them, and not a few murders. Some of the mem? bers of the band belonged to quite re? spectable families. After all, they do j not seem to have realized much from their crimes. Seventy, ninety or a hun? dred francs appear in tbe account of their arrest as tho plunder of men they stabbed to death. The discovery of this association, so yoathful, yet so depraved, coming so soon after the details furnish? ed by the papers of Germany of the ar? rest of a similar band of criminals in a j quiet German town, shows that atrooious I crimes are getting to be as frequent in I Europe as with us.

The inquest was held by Coroner Colemaa. Dr. H. N. Sloan was the principal witness examined. It appears the lye was drank, about a month ago, and that when-the physician was called, the tongue of tha man -was in a state of mortification. Coroner Cpleman sent his constable for several witnesses in.the case. The constable returned., saying the witnesses refused to come.

A Terrible Revenge. ?A fashionable young Parisian, during his last summer's shooting, became intimate with the pretty wife of a game keeper, and has continued to visit her. Quite recently, the husband beoame aware of his dis? honor, and oontriveil to be near on the occasion of one of these visits. He ap? proached ? the house, singing and whis? tling, and the terrified wife oonoealed her lover in a closet, and that closet had been prepared for his reception by the game-keeper. Entering, he ordered his wife to light the fires and get breakfast. She obeyed, and at the end of a few minutes a thick smoke issued from ihe closet. The husband had dis-conneoted the stove funnel, which ran through it. He affected not to mind this, nor to hear the groans of the suffocating man within, and when his wife fainted at her work from fright, he ooolly got breakfast him? self, eat it, and departed. The poor wo? man soon recovered, and dragged her lover from his plaoe of confinement, but the husband's revenge had been com? plete; he was past human aid. The most remarkable suicide of the time is that of T. F. Anderson, cashier of Lamberton'a Bank, Franklin County, Pa. He gathered and placed in the fire bank notes, bonds, and bank papers to a very large amount, and then rah homo ana shot himself.
