Parliament In Blast Again.

LONDON, July 7-Parhament reassem-
bled Monday afternoon. In the house Of
lords the marquis of Salibury, the new
prime minister, and also minister for for
sign affairs, made the following
concerning the attitude
which the Tory ministry had decided to
assume in its relations with foreign powers
He said that the parleying with Russia
would be resumed at the point at which
Lord Granville, his predecessor in the for
sign office, had ceased his negotiations, and
that all the pledges which had been already
made would be respected. His lordship said
that he deemed it unwiss at this time
to attach an excessive Importance to the
result of the parlsying. One thing, how
ever, was imperative, and that was to at
once make active and complete preparations
for the maintenance of Englands power in
the east In referring to the Egyptian
question Lord Salisbury said that it would
be impossible to entirely abandon the
Soudan.
He sail that every thing concerning
Egypt must await the rene wal of the present
financial deadlock in which that country
was involved and he concluded by making
an appeal for time "The ministry" he
said, "could not at such short notice disen-
tangle the web which his predecessor had
wound around Egyptian affairs"
The house Of commons refused by vott
of 26S to 2l9 to seat Charles Bradlaugh al
member for Northampton.
