Lokdov, September 98.—Mr. ParaaH’* Jlttor to Mr. Fltegprald. President of the ■Mirof In America, la hotly availed by of the leading govern mrnt organs. m,— gat b that evictions (diminishing. The i ire charged with trumping up imaginary eases of eviction and represent- toga state of affairs that has no foundation In not. The landlords, on the other hand, are held up to public admiration as lenient and forbearing under Circumstances of ex treme provocation. They are described as reduced to the verge of ruin by the re fusal of their tenants to pay the rents justly due. Finslly, the statement that evictions, Instead of being general, are rapidly dimin ishing, is capped by the bold assertion that H would be next to impossible for Mr. Par nell to point out in these days a really harsh eviction. A singular illustration of the value of these declarations is furnished in the col umns of the Standard itself, the most in fluential Tory dally in the kingdom. Here we And a matter of fact report of a case of eviction, which for cold-blooded cruelty it would be difficult to beat. In the instance referred Id, one of the members of the family to be evicted was a dying woman. The knowledge that site was at the point of death had no weight with the evletors. The scene that ensued mused keen distress among the onlookers, who were powcrlcs* to interfere without bringing on themselves serious consequences. There have been many well authenticated cases of eviction of persons whose removal was almost ccr tain death; but the Tory papers Ignore them In their attacks on the case made out by the Parnellltea. A reference to the latest published returns of the Irish land commisaion falls to bear out the assertions of the champions of eviction, and fully sus- tains the allegations of the Parnellltea. A reduction of the number of evictions is shown in certain localities, but over the whole country the number is increased. The Tories appear to have taken the soli tary cases of reduction and applied them to the country st large. The Liberal press generally, except the extreme Unionist press, favorably notice Mr. Parnell's letter. Reports cunent to-night at the clubs point to an extraordinary attempt on the part of Bismarck to cripple British inflo * coos In tbs present crisis in European af- fairs, and the center of Interest again shifts from Bulgaria to Egypt. Bismarck, with the view of inducing Prance to enter into a friendly understanding with Germany, ami abandon her schemes of a "war of revenge." has undertaken, according to the reports ■Motioned, to direct the attention of French statesmen to a scheme of foreign conquest, the main object of which is the ejection of the British from Egypt, and the annexa tioa of that country to the French empire Bismarck i Journal d A bar* openly ad vises the French to prepare for a canqiofgn to drive the English out of Egypt and anxe the short cut to India.
