o'ooSEoR's BLOW AT TIE HousE OF LORDS
The resolution Of Thomas P. o'Connor,
Home Rule member for Galway, that it Is
no longer Just or expedient that all meas.
ures for the improvement Of the condition
of the people of England, Ireland and
Scotland should be at the mercy Of BODY
consisting Of legislators hereditary and ir.
responsible, was moved in the House OF
Commons in the small hours Of Wednes-
day morning, after the passage Of BuEiAls
bill, and was seconded by Mr.. Labouchere,
Liberal member for Northampton. The
Marquis Of Harrington humorously dep
recated the raising OF 3 great con-
situtional question at half-past
three in the morning he said. He
hoped the House would proceed
with as little delay as possible TO the more
serious business on the paper.
The House then divided on the ques.
ton. The numbers were, l3 yeas TO II
nays. The minority consisting Of FIVE
Irish members and Bradlaugh, Briggs,
Broadhurst, Ashton, w. Dieke, Sir VIII
fred 'Lamcon. LauboucheIe, Charles Nc

INDIGNATION AT THE REJECTION OF THE
REGISTRATION LAW.
In the House of Commons to-day, La
bouchere gave notice that early in the
next session he would call attention to the
Legislative relations OF the Lords and Com
mons and move resolution on the sub
iect.
Arnold, Liberal, will move on going
into committee on the appropriation bill
that the rejection by the House Of Lords
OF the measure greatly promoting the
welfare Of Ireland has grayely increased
the difficulties OF the Executive, and en-
dangers the grant Of money for the ex-
pehses Of State.
Parnell gave notice of motion for tack
ing the legislation bill to the appropriation
bill.
The Marquis OF Harrington suggested it
would be better TO move q resolution re-
monstrating sgainst the rejection by the
House oiLords OF the registration bill. To
this Parnell assented.
rHE "rHuxDKRERn CONDEMNS THEIR LORD.
eHIPs.
Thos. Power o'Conner will preside at
the Irish demonstration sgainst the House
of Lords, in Hyde Park, Sunday next. A
number of the Irish membersof the House
Of Commons have promised to participate
in the proceedings. The Board OF Works
have refused permission for the erection
Of platform IN the park.
The Times says 1t is much to be regretted
that the House OF Lords should have re-
iecled the bill for the registration OF voters
in Ireland. II was 4 waste Of their power
when struggles can be foreseen on matters
Of great moment Its imprudent to pro-
woke III feeling over trifles. The bill pro-
Sided facilities for the registration Of
voters in Ireland, which were identical,
in the main, with those existing in Eng
land, and the House oil Lords might wise
ly have assented 70 1t as dealing with 9
matter peculiarly within the province OF
the Lower House,
