The New York Tribune says: "When the Pacific Mail carried letters to Australia they reached there twenty-four days from Sau Francisco. They are now sent b Lon don and Brindisi, and under the best of cii cumstances fifty-three days are occupied in transit. So much for a democratic adminis tration. "Private advices from London indicate that the Australian steamship service will be kept up monthly until congress or the postoffice department have had an oppor (unity to decide whether they will devote money already appropriated for extra com pensation for mdis carried in ships bearing the American flag.

Panic!!, sneaking at an open air meeting after the'eonvention at Dublin this week, said home rule would stop all disloyal pro ceedings and outrages and the thirst for dis union.
