Home Rule for Ireland Discussed
in the English Parliament.
Critical Condition of Affairs in
France. '

LONDON, July 3.-The debate on
home rule concluded. Disraeli was
unable to agree that Ireland had right
toa greater amount OF self govern
ment than Scotland or England. He
demonstrated the groundlessness of
the complaint that Irishmen were not
appointed to high offices of the
Government, and denied that Ireland
was treated as Il conquered country.
He said that two separate Parliaments
would be constantly in collision, the
minority in each Parliament would be
always appealing to the Imperial Par
| lament. He opposed the motion be-
cause it was injurious to both coun-
tries. At the great crisis Of the world,
which was nearer than some supposed,
he wished the people to be united. To
accept this motion would produce dis
Indignation in England and might re
suit in the obstruction of the empire.
Mccarthy, Mitchell and Nolan, the
O'COnner clan and others spoke in
support of the motion. At late hour
the House divided and DIR. Butts reso-
luton was rejected-6l yeas, 458 nays.
PARIS, July 5.-The political situa-
ton is serious. The Legitimists have
resolved to make an attempt to unseat
the present Ministry on Interpolation
/ in regard to the suspension of the
Lee Union, which comes before the AS
sembly next Tuesday. They are nego-
tiating with the Left to obtain its sup~
port. A counter. coalition of the Left
Centre with the Right Centre in favor
of Casimer Perier's constitutional bill
is also proposed. There is GROUND for
the belief that Marshal MacMahon has
intimated to the Legitimists that he
will not accept the resignation of the
Ministry, even If it is defeated, and it
is reported that he will send his mes
sage to the Assembly on Tuesday.
The Lee ErdncdiS says passports are
