CAUSING TROUBLE.
LONDON, Monday, July H. 1880
In the House Of Commons this evening Mr.. Glad
stone moved that Wednesdays and part of Thurs
days sittings heretofore both devoted to private
business be for the rest of this session surrendered
to the Government. This will leave for private
business only the evening session of Fridays.

conne themselves in regard to the ballot to the SIM
pie continuance of the existing act abandoning the
Irish Borough Franchise bill. All other Govern
ment bills will be persevered with.

Scotsman says be has the best authority for saying
that movement is afoot below the gangway in the
House of Commons to present an address to Premier
Gladstone assuring him Of the Willingness OF large
number of Members to support him in continuing
the session of Parliament as long as he may deem 1t
necessary to sit TO carry out the Government pro-
gramme.
