PARNELL'S AMENDMENT TO THE SPEECH.
Mr.. Parnell has announced his inten-
| ton OF moving an amendment to the ad-
dress in reply to the Queens speech with
reference to the recent conduct of the
| governments policy in Ireland. Its ten
| dency, he says, has not been to TRANQUIL
| ize the people. He especially depIOres
the wantOn prohibition Of legal and con-
stltutlonal meetings, whereby free
| speech has been practically quenched
in Ireland. The amendment cOndem ms
the Irish Executive for having
permitted Magistrates publicly and with
perfect impunity to applaud the conduct
OF Lord RossmOre, who had been super
seded as Justice of the Peace for disturb
ing public order, provoking ill-will and
strife between the different classes in
ireland, and thereby directly melting
Irishmen to illegal acts, disorder and
deeds of violence. The amendment con-
cluded by humbly assuring her MAJESTY
of the firm conviction of his party that the
policy of forcing or stimulating state
aided emigration of the Irish people
should be definitely and forwith aband-
Oned.
