House Of Lords on the Land Bill, and thu
political crisis Is serious, The House o
Lords met yesterday and insisted on rein
Sering their important amendments 70 thu

Commons. The Marquis Of Salisbury
resumed his remarks, and, 10 q determined
attitude, be said their Lorduhipa' objections
to the bill had not been met in q proper
spirit; that the bill must be admitted q
the judgement Of the country, and thai
AlonSlhe individual rights muat be protect.
cd against the violent invasion promoted
By temporary passion. The Marquis Of
Salisbury then laid bis reasons on tho table
a. q protest thereafter. In the House oil
Commons Mr., Gladstone announced that,
In consequence oil the action OF the House
Of Lords, the Land Bill could mot DO CON.
BideFed till Monday. This announcement
created Q sensAtion. Il 10 believed that
the bill will DO lost, There are Tumors oil
m autumn session OF Parliament.
In the House Of Commons last night,
Richie (O~onservative) moved an address
70 the Grown praying the Queen TO with
hold consent from any commercial treaty
With FIanCe, which shall substitute
specific Tor adyAlorem duties 10 any way
iujullng the British manufacturer, and
which shall bind England Tor more than
one year. This 10 . reconnaissance OF the
Conservative. P~rotectionlsts, intended 90 q
prelude 10 demonstrations 10 the prov.
tnces during Q recess Of Parliament.
Richie pointed out that free trade had
made no progresa abroad, and Of home
there was q growing feeling that much OF
the present depression In trade was owing
TO our commercial policy. Though he
held that protection was no avail for our
manufacturers, he insisted that stspsought
to be taken 10 saws them from exclusion
from foreign marketa.
Dixie, Under Foreign Secretary, opposed
the motion, but repeated that the Govern.
ment would not approve any treaty preju.
dicisl to British trade,
The Times commenting upon the action
Of the House oil Lords ON the Irish Bill,
Oaysit hopes Lord Cairns, Lord Chancellor,
may not interfere with his aootbing In.
~auence, But II ConfesseS that the pros.
pect 10 very dark, and that q storm has
suddenly arisen which may have q most
disastrous effect
Rev. Frederick W. Farrar, one OF the
Canona OF the Westminster Abbey, and
author OF the well known "Li!e OF Christ"
will probably succeed this late Stanley 40
Dean Of Westminster.
The Pail Mall GaGett this evening says:
The situation 10 serious; we might even
say dangerous, but tina II 10 difficult to
credit the Peers with sufficient folly TO
persist In q preoipitation Of the consutu.
tionsl crisis. II they persist In resolute
hostility the whole work oil the eession
will be- sacrificed, Ireland will b ec~onyulsed
with evil and wal aud aggression will be
started, oil over the revision Of the Consti.
tuition, which will have stronger conse.
quences than they probably imagine.
Commenting on tho remarks that
have been published concerning the
lack Of GignS OF populIr indignf.
ton 81 the action Of the Lords,
the Pail Mall Gazette concludes % fol.
lows: As much 90 We dislike the recog.
milton OF monster meetings and torchlight
proceeaiona 90 necessary Adjunets 10 onr
Constitution aud machinery, II 10 evident
that they only are a check upon the Con.
eefvattve peers. The time 10 abort, but
long enough 10 enlighten Lord Salisbury
of the resl public opinion, aud save the
peers from suicide. The moderate Con.
SeIyatives cannot render better service TO
the Constitution they desire 10 maintain
than by organizing . demonstration.
