mitted the principle of specific duties, as
claimed by the Rspu6liQue FrdncaiSe, said

The House went into committee on the
land bill this afternoon. On reaching
clause thirty-four, for the appointment of
commissioners, Mr.. Gladstone said that the
two law commissioners were appointed only
for seven years, In order that Parliament
might have an opportunity to review the
constitution of the commission. The
arrangement, as far as the present ses-
sion was concerned, he said, was purely
provisional, and that it was impossible to
estimate what the commission would have
to do. The government intend, instead of
the sum of Ell ,000, 900 asked for in the pub
lie works loan bill, to take 42,000000 from
the consolidated fund. About 10000, OO0
OF purchases, he said, might
probably be made within six years.

under the land bill, was adopted. The post
poned clauseswer afterwards finished, and
the consideration Of new clauses begun.

ment could only have passed the clause
afl D,rIa ,lzrv-s
AS the clause now stands the Home Rule

1t is reported that correspondence be-
tween England and France In regard to Tri-
poll will be published before the close of
