CAUSE OF OPPOSITION.
In political circles the explanation of Irish
opposition In commons to the emigration
clause of the land bill, is that they wish to
prevent the passage of the bill and believe q
rejection of that clause will increase animosl-
mostly to the bill in the house of lords.
BRADLAUGH.
Bradlaugh served formal notice upon the
speaker and other officers of commons. pro-
testing against his previous exclusion from
the house as illegal, and giving notice that on
or before the Sd of August, he will present
himself atthe table of the house and that any
one endeavoring to prevent him will be acting
illegally, and he will resist physical force
and endeavOr to overcome it if offered
GLADSTONE EXCITED.
LoNDoNJuly .14.-The house of commons
tonight went into committee on the land bill,
Britts complained of Irish obstruction and
said the Irish membes dared not vote against
the emigration clause.
Parnell protested against Britts statement
and said he would vote against the clause
himself. Parnell then asked Gladstone what
limit the government proposed to place on
the emigration. The expenditure clause f.
nally passed at $50 a. M, 1876 to %.
Edmund Leaing, Qiberal and home-ruler)
member for Wexford city. moved to report
progress.
Gladstone then energetically attacked the
home-rulers for their persistent and systematic
obstruction Having miserably failed to de-
nounce the bill in Ireland the hom- -erulers
sought by obstruction of the emigrant clause
to re-establish their damaged reputation. The
house must choose between succumbing to
the attempt made with such unblushing open
ness and carrying the cause to a definite con-
clusion at this setting tremendous cheers
Progress was then reported and the house was
counted out at $40.
The Daily Neacs states that the ministers
had arranged to sit all night to pass the emf
grafton clause if necessary. The feeling of
Indignation against he members who i'm
peded ran very high in open benches, where,
hitherto, hom-erulers had found generous sup
port. Capt. Nolan finally abdicated his func-
tions as Parnellite whip.
