r. Passuell is doing his best for the Liberals in
Coventry, by sust Address seshich he has issued to the Irish electors, entreat- ing thorn to vete for the Tory candidate, if only to defeat the Goverament whirsh has passed the Coercion Bills.. "I have no hesitation ia saying that a Conservative Government would have been =aisle to impose coercion,—that their Land Bill would have been at least as good as that which is likely to struggle through the present Parliament." Mr. Finigan and Mr. A. O'Connor left London, it is said, yesterday, to sup- port Mr. Parnelre appeal to She Irish electors of Coventry, and we eonfess that we hope a good deal from that part of the canvas for Sir Ughtred Kity.Shattlevsorth'e cause. It will certainly render the Liberals more popular in Coventry, and not im- probably pip them a few Conservative votes, Otherwise, the
prospect of Mr. Eaton's candidature is rather formidable. He hos immense local popularity in Coventry, where Protectionist views are not a little popular. Sir U. Shuttleworth, though an excellent Liberal, is hardly a Liberal whose Liberalism is as. contagious as we should wish all Liberalism to be.
