FOREIGN NOTES.

LONDON, July 30.-In the commons Glad
stone said that before any action was
taken regarding a second Suez canal, the
house should have an opportunity of ex
pressing its opinion on the subject. Ths
government, he said, desired merchants
and shippers to have ample time to con
slider the matter. The government do MOI
intend an early renewal of negotiations, a:
it is helpless to consider the question
fairly as long as it is entangled in poll
tics.
Dodson said the government would con
slider the question of appointing a com.
mittee on the cattle disease next session
1t was receiving definite reports regarding
it from the American government and
from British consuls abroad.
Northcote, conservative, moved an ad-
dress to the queen praying that in any
negotiations relative to the Suez canal she
decline to recognize any claim of the Suez
Canal company, to such monopoly as
would exclude other undertakings design
ed for the purpose of opening a way be-
tween the Mediterranean and the Red sea.
The motion wasI received by the Tory
members with loud cheers. Northcote
begged for calm discussion of the mo-
uon, which he said was
not of party character. He
wished not to do anything to discredit the
government. He only asked the house to
express such an opinion as would relieve
them from the embarrassment arising
from the practical recognition of the mo-
nopoly of the Suez Canal company bv
some members of the government. Nor

claring it undesirable to prejudice the
action of the government and that the
house declined to pass resolutions con-
corning further negotiations or proceed
lngs in connection with the canal. Glad
stone, amid great applause, cordially
supported Norwood's amendment.
LONDON, July 30.-Northcote's motion
was rejected and Norwood's motion, in the
nature of an amendment, was adopted by
2S2 to 1873, the Parnellites not voting.
LONDON, July 30.-Gladstone maintain
ed that the late government was aware
when it bought the Suez canal shares that
DE Lesseps claimed rights even more ex-
elusive. than he does now. The passage
of Sir Northcote's motion he said would
greatly diminish the governments san
guine hopes of coming to an agreement
on the canal question. The house of COM
mons would not be bound by the opinion
of the executive. He declared it would be
useless to pronounce an opinion on the
subject which would probably have to be
settled in the courts of Egypt. H.C.
Childers, chancellor, said he was confident
that before many months or years the gov
would succeed in making a salts
factory agreement with regard to the
canal
LONDON, July 30.-At Cairo there were
