Parnoll'o'careful study of the now rule has enabled him to be ono of the ear liest to turn them to practical use. The discmcion-on the arrears aot was . of the greatest value and waa most " \adroifcly introduced , and it was ielt X when Parnell abandoned his mo- iion that the subject had boon jprooonted > to the house in no spirit of partisanship or obstruction , but on its plain merits aa a government question requiring con- fllderation for reasons of absolute urgency. The statements of the Irish members made it very-clear that the coming winter will bo fraught with fearful hardships for the Irish peas antry. Never cinco 1840 has the outlook - look > boon so bad in the west , or the .prospect of adequate relief ao hope- leaa. The immense number of people who are without shelter by reason of wholesale evictions makea the situa tion worao.than over before. Already iho country presents perhaps the aad- deat spectacle that in all ita aad his tory it has known. Mr. Trevelyan'i able speech on Thursday raakos the best caao possible for the arreura act , but it ia certain that the nct'lmu ' noi answered the ex pectations of ! either ministers or Par- nelitea.

Mr.JUrnoll intnnda to renew the si- tatiouan parluvinent , in spite of Mr. Gladntooo'o.rafuaal . to introduce a now arrears Act. All iudicutiona now point to en ad- journnieat of parliament in ton days or a fortnight , most everybody fceiug tired of the preaent session , and itcnay be said , cod not without cause , that the government has ibeon suddenly awakened by the discovery thstiho new rules forihe pioper aubordination .of parliament can bo easily brought to .naught , aah&z boendhown by the fact that two wotions for adjournment were mudo duriog the patt ureok and fo nd the neceaiary tupport.

After the matter had been patched up the opposing councol , aud everything cut and dried , Judge Duudy said : "I understand this result to have boon brought by agreement between the counsel for the respective partior , and hi view of all the circumstances I think both sidca have acted wisely. Whatever may bo thought of the sen tence to bj pronounced , I fool that the defendant haa already boon fully punished for anything ho ha < > dono. Ho has boon subjected to the coats und vexatious of n long litigation , and has probably lost the value of his time , besides the mental suffering ono necessarily undergoes while lying un der n criminal charge. "This caao has once been tried , and after a fair and impartial trial of moro than a week , the jury were unable to agrco , there being , ua popularly re ported , a majority in favor of the de fendant. Having heard thnt trial , and bearing in mind the fact that the recollections of the witnesses were fresher than they would bo again , I have alwnya doubted , and still doubt , that the defendant could bo convicted upon a now trial. Indeed , it Booms extremely probable that another trial would cither result in another disa greement or an acquittal. "Whilo it ia understood that the court was not a party to the agree ment of counsel , and no assurance given that such na arrangement would bo curried out , yet in view of all the facts I think the agreement a wise ono for all parties , and shall act in ac cordance with it.

The facts set forth iu it are not now to mo. From coiuldora- tlon of legal aa well aa official policy , I have thus far abstained from calling your attention to these matters. I am much bettor satisfied that Bliss , aelint * aa counsel iu the caao , of his own motion has aubmittcd to you the subjects therein dealt with. Since I received the letter Merrick and Kor , colleagues of Bliea , called upon mo and invited my attention to the nub- ject in the same manner that Bliaa nas in the letter written by him to you. It ia my opinion that thu ends of justice have been interfered with by the persona complained of by Mcr- riolc , Bliss and Korr. The marshal of the diatrict U ro- oponsiblo for much of the opposing Bontlment to the case of the payern- mont that waa exhibited in oour llur- inn the trial of the ctar routd pise. His negligent and irregular fcolduot in selecting talesmen 1 stoutly , ob jected to at the tirno. and BO infornaed him. I recommend hia Immediate .re moval. Ho is an unsuitable" parson , and haa injuriously interfered vwitlV the proper conduct of the atat jrduto caseandhas.given bin p6i * ! gXf''Pl pathy and the Bympstiy' ) * wf'oflico to atar route defendants. D. B. Ainger.poBtinastorin this city , and hia asoUtant , Myron M. Porker , arc justly subject to all the charges presented by Bliss , and I think they should be removed. No mon holdinu publio appointments should bo per mitted to use the power and influence of their ponitions aa they have uoed them , or be permitted to interfere with auch prosecution or any prosecu tion urged by the government iu vin dication of law. The man Hnlm , recently appointed to the head of ono of the depart ments in the publio printing office , is by law incapable of .hiding that office , inasmuch as ho controls publio newspapers , but I will further add that thu paper he-controls is a paper notoriously and confessedly owned by one ot the defendants. Ho is the most culpable of all since it was by hia official criminal malfoasuuco that corrupt orders were mndo and frauds successfully perpetrated. His _ paper has been engaged f com the beginning of these prosecutions down to the dis charge of the jury in the most violent ojbuso of all wno wore supposed to be interested in bringing the defendants 'to justlci The judge was not oven Spared.tho counsel were persistently olandijrod , ami witnesses openly as- anultbd , denounced and terrorized by 'o'no.continuous current of peruonat abuseaud calumny. I am of the opinion that this man should be removed moved , and I am astonished that those who have charge of thu public print ing with the knowledge of these facts ahould venture to appoint him , Ho is no ) , a man to bo trusted in the ro- eponsiblo position he holds. In conjunction with Bliss I respect fully call your attention to the con duct of George E , Spencer , .Upon the day of your departure from thia city , Immediately after the adjourn ment of congress , a communication by Bliss end other counsels in the cauoa was sent through me with your com plaint against George K. Spencer. Those papora did not reach yon at that time , This was during the latter weeks of the trial ; in fact , the evi dence had closed and counsel were addressing - dressing the jury , Those papers are now before you , Bliss , by ills letter , which you have referred to me , called your attention to them. By them it appears that George K. Spencer is a delinquent and absconding witness ; that ho testified to material and important facts , aud that ho loft thia city and has ever since accreted himeolf and avoided the process of law. He holds an important public position , and ia the last man who ahould hesitate to be preeent in cpurt to testify in a ease of magnitude , and in which the honor of the govern- ipurif'uml Administration of public juat/oo is concerned , and because of hia censurable delinquency I unite with BlUa aud the other countol in the case in asking his immediate re moval , Gee , 0. Miller , ono of the policeof the district , ia the recent judicial in quiry , with the audacity of a criminal , confewed"undcryoath that ho had been engaged and retained in the service of the defendants in the ttar route c.-vsb , nnd had porsUlentlv nsilstod them during Ilia trial. 1 localise of this confusion made by him' , I applied to the commissioners of Ihin district to remove him. That rcmornl haa tnkon pUce , After serious nnd nrolonqod deliberation over alt the detail * of the the OMO , my investigation * luvo satisfied mo that the men who were indiolod were guilty men , and merited the extreme puniihment of the law. They had projected under cover of official power , and under the color of official authority , a systematic plan ot doliboratc robbery of the pub lic troaiury ; to carry ont that plan thuy had laid their hands upon n fund dedicated by law to n great publio per- vice a norvicothat ia conspicuously ono ot the fruits and causoa of our civilisation , our social comfort , our commercial prosperity , our national growth. Millions of that money they perverted to their own private gain and divided It for their own personal purposes. It was the condign act of an infamous conspiracy and deserves the severest punishment the law can inflict. Such men are traitors to so cial and official duly , and they are publio enemies against whom the au thority of the law must bo cxortod without hesitation or reluctance , The higher their past position the greater their siu and nterner must bo their punishment. I dcoiro to call your attention to the fact that officers of the law and those who havu boon directly aiding mo in the discharge ) of my duty in this buti- ness have boon from the first encircled with urmroB , pitfalls and every species of vile device that could bo invented to harm them , hinder their usefulness and prevent the administration of jus tice. Sotno portions of this commu nity who surround those defendants , and who nnjuyod , or do ntill enjoy minor cllicuil positions , know no ulloplatico to nny ono but this band of robbery , nnd render no ser vice to any ono but these evil employ- on , from motives of gain or other cor rupt considerations. They are satu rated with affinities to thoeo bad men , they IIM o contributed by every moans in their power at the bidding of their masters to obstruct publio justice and bo defame id officora , with the hope of scouring acquittal aud escape of the worst band of organized scoundrels that over existed since the commonoemont of the government.

Oolonol Ingcrsoll , of couueol in the star route cases , said in an interview on the nubjoct of Saturday's dismissals by Prcaidont Arthur : "It ia effort on the part of the government to terrorize the jury. I believe Marshal Hunry ia as honest a man as over lived. Ho never did the slightest favor for the defendants ; ho dimply did hia duty- no more , no losa. The reason why they want him out is that they raitj ut oomo ono in who will do more that absolute ' 'control of the 'jury , j never dreamed Aingor or Parkei were cither friends or enemies of the defendants. Those mon have boot cut down without a ho&ring. Nothing more unjust , nothing moro infamout has over boon done in the history of the country. The idea that a citizen and officer cannot give his opinion of the innocence of a party buit. proae- outod by the government without re moval is simply horrible. Their idea is that every officer ia a dog thnt can bo hissed on by the attorney general. The doctrine is tco contemptible to find lodgement in the brain of any de cent man.
