assume, tho Ieins OF government, the
Parnellite members of Parliament have
begun comforting with the leading Con-

reminded the house that the govern

der compact regarding the redistribu'
fying to himself and his colleagues in
the retiring Cabinet, II before they
ceased their public duties they could
regard the bill as sealed and delivered.
Sir Stafford Northcote, on behalf OF
the Conservatives, responded that MS
party desired to proceed with the redls-
tribution bill as soon as possible. fhere

to the bill by the House of Lords should
not at once receive the assent OF the
House OF Commons; but the question OF
these amendments was In this peculiar
shape: The amendments were not yet
printed and he thought it desirable TO
have them printed before formally act
ing on them.
Mr.. Gladstone expressed acquies--
cence with this view and the sitting OF
the House was suspended until the
amendments should be received.

don all ordinary business.
