Tories choose to recognize adventitious aid or
not Mr. Parnell's chief claim to politicai ieau-
ership is grounded upon his shreTdness IN
holding aloof from close political alliances ana
in uniformly acting in Opposition against the
Government of the day. He voted with the
Liberals against Lord Beaconsfeld, and sub
seauently took his seat on the Opposition slde'
where he could lead an Irish revolt against Mt.
Gladstone's Ministry. He has had the politicai
intelligence to perceive that q Third Party, In
order to possess the elements OF strength and
permanence, must be under all circumstances
an anti-Minsterial party. He confidently ex-
pects that ireland will return at the next gen.
eral election n nearly unbroken Home Rule del
esation. ana that neither of the great parties
will have anything moro than scant majority.
The Government to-day commands only
nominal excess of twenty-six votes when the
Home Rulers unite with the Conservatives,
although the Conservatives have not made any
remarkable gains in the bye-elections. The
change of a dozen constituencies in general
election would render Parliamentary govern
ment irnpracticable, with the Irish members in
Opposition, whether the Ministry were Liberal
or Conservative. The Parnellites are not en-
numbered with political convictions in these
so-called alliances. They engage in them
from motives of temporary convenience, their
ulterior aim being TO make their own party
stumbling-blo in the way Of English lcgis-

IRIGH ALLIANCES.

natural He ip their responsible leader and
any structures upon their political tactics are
reflections upon his personal honor. lie has
chosen to deal with Mr.. BIight's recent utter
ance as wanton aspersion and breach OF
Parliamentary privilege; yet the vote of the
Commons on his resolution of censure amply
sustained the orators charge. Mr. Bright had
said that there was an alliance between the
Tories aud the Irish rebels" and when the
House divided the Tories and the Parnellites
were found practically in alliance voting to-
gether with unbroken lines, while the Liberals
were masscd ON the other side with majority
of thirty -four. The alliance then as on pre-
yious occasions was not the outcome of polit-
ical negotiation, nor OF any formal compact,
but of common interests. There was JOINT
action then as there had been many times be-
fore during the present session, and the debate
on the resolution was only one out OF hun
dred deliberate attempts to interrupt the serl-
Gus business of the House and to harass the
Ministry by squandering precious time that is
needed for so many urgent measures. Mr..
Bright had described the Parnellites as "reb-
els once before Ia the open House and had
been appauded for his vigorous diction by the
Tories themselves; and his use of the word
| alliance was not one whit more reckless
than the application by the Opposition OF the
same term to the Kilmainham negotiations had
been. There was no ground for the resolution
of censure yet it was brought forward as a
| fresh expedient for annoying the Ministry and

House, justfying, in effect the very charge
against which it was nominally aimed.

The Republican Central Committee have etaken
long step forward in promoting harmony
and unity in the party in this city. Yesterday
afternoon the report recently prepared by the
Committee on Suggestions was adopted by the
Executive Committee with only one dissenting
voice. In the evening the General Committee
took the same action with the same unani-
mity. There was considerable discussion but
it seemed mainly for the purpose of eliciting
information as to details. The time for the
new registration of the party is set for No
yember; but all Republicans, whether belong
ing to the District Association or not can
vote at the primaries, which will precede the
election this fail.
The Liberty of the Press was conspicuOusly
before the public yesterday. In the Court of
General Sessions, Mr.. John Dewey, of The Irish
Nation, was condemned to sixty days imprison-
ment for criminal libel. Before he was SEN
fenced, however he made few remarks
which were listened to with attention. In the
Madison Square Theatre the New York Press
Association was addressed blythe Hon. ChauE-
cey NJ. Depew. As was natural, both Mr.. Dewey
and Mr.. Depew selected the Liberty of the Press
for their theme. The points made by each will
be found printed elsewhere in this paper. The
Irish editor considered the subject strictly from
a personal point of view, while Mr. De2ew,
feeling freer, perhaps, discussed it timpersonally.
Mr.. Deyoy spoke in a tone of regret and left
the impression on his hearers that in his opinion
the Liberty of the Press in this country was
somewhat more restricted than it ought to be.
Mr. Depew, on the other hand, spoke cheerfully,
pointing out how much the Nation owes to the
Unshacked Press. Those who had the pleasure
Of hearing MIR. Depew yesterday doubtless
hope to hear him again but the friends of Mr.
Dewey certainly hope that he will never again
be called upon to speak under similar circum-
stances.
