LONDON, July 6.-The Times to-

the anniversary of American inde-
pendence. The writer SAYS:
The Americans now feel they can
speak of themselves and of their
Telghbor In a calm and dignifed tone
without the b0asting Of old times.
We may expect most Of the old acri-
mony tovanish. The American people
ought to be in a friendly spirit after
their monster festival. Such a demon
stration in favor of peace-sucha pro-
dIgious condemnation of strife-ought
TO have a softening upon the most
strenuous asserter of the Alabama
claims.

LONDON, July 6.-In the House of
Lords, last night, the consideration
of the Irish Church Bill was re
sumed. Lord Lefford moved an
amendment granting the value of
their masses to the Presbyterian
Church. Earl Granville opposed it
on the ground that il would aggra-
vate the mischief of the decision
arrived at by the House on Friday
night, when it rejected the amend
ment to permit churches to retain
their Ecclesiastical Ordinances with
out payment therefor.
Lord Lefford withdrew his amend
ment.
The Archbishop of Canterbury
moved an amendment to clause 29th,
that private endowments made since
the Church. He pointed out large
prior to 1860, and said there was no
reason why they should not be dealt
with In the same manner as those
made after that. To show such an
unjust discrimination he thought was
most dangerous. 1t would shake the
faith Of the people in private endow-
ments.
Lord Halbery opposed the Arch
bishops amendment on the ground
that private endowments made prior
to 1860, were purely mythical. He
said the Ulster grant was an appropri-
alton to churches of public money
and Of land won by the English while |
putting down the rebellion. In no
sense was it a private endowment.
The Bishop of Peterborough sup
ported the amendment, urging that
neither On the ground Of justice nor
of legal tight ought the church to be
deprived of these early endowments
Earl Granville said that the difiieul9
ty IN establishing the legality Of
these early endowments would swal-
low up the whole amount Of their
value in litigation. and he proposed
to grant half q million sterling in
money instead.
The Marquis Of Salisbury objected
to the bringing in at any moment of
fresh proposals by the Government.
and proposed that the consideration
Of the clause be postponed
Lord Cairns suggested the passage
of the clause without date or amand-
ment, leaving the Earl Of GraDvllle's
proposition to be considered IL the
report.
The Archbishop of Canterbury
then moved an amendment that all
Giebe lands granted by the crown
since 1860, be given to the new church
BODY. After long discussion a divi-
sion was had, and the amendment was
carried-105 to 50.
Clauses 30, 81 and 30 were agreed
upon.
Clause 33 was taken up.
The Earl of Limerick moved an
/ amendment that the poor rates be
deducted from any rent change, sold
in lieu of tithes.
The Marquis of Salisbury remarked
/ that this clause was an arithmetical
puzzle, but was evidently intended as
a cap to the Irish landlords. The
/ Government proposed to act fairly,
/ but the Government thought it was
| the most peuurious measure ever de-
yised. If the Government had come
forward and avowed these clauses,
which distinctly represented their
principles, they would have COM
mended themselves more to all
classes Of the country.
The House divided or the Marquis
Of Limerick's S amendment, and 1t was
adopted bY 81 to ~.
