NEWS OF THE WEEK.

TIIHE past week has been one of unusual liveliness by air, land, and sea. There was the Dublin revolt, which as we write is still going on ; there were three Zeppelin raids ; and there was a naval raid on Lowestof t and Yarmouth, pigs a small sea action which took place when our very much weaker local naval forces drove off the German battle-cruiser squadron. The list sounds a formidable one, but the net result of all this sound and fury was very little.
