4 TORY DEFEAT.

The Salisbury Government Defeated $50
to 329, in IL Test Vote in the House of
CommonS
Sir Michael HickS-Bcach, the Conservative
leader. gave notice in thehousr ofCommons
Tuesday afternoon the 2Gth inst, that
the government would introduce on Thurs
day Il bin to suppress the Irish National
eaguc and other dangerous societies, to
prevent intimidation, TO protect life and
property and maintain public order in Ire
land. This announcement was greeted
with loud cheers. Sir Michael saidh would
ask the house to gave the bill precedence.
The notice given by the Conservative
leader of the governments intention to ia.
troduce a bill TO suppress the National
league was greeted by the Parnellite mem
bers with cries of"Cowards,'' "Shame,' and
~ironical laughter, the uproar c~Ontinuingfor
some moments. Mr.. Ceilings moved his
amendment TO the address on the subject Of
allotments. Mr.. Gladstone strongly sup
ported Mr.. Ceilings amendment, and the
marquis OF Harrington opposed it.. Sir
Michael Hicks-Beoch said the government
would willingly accept the decision OF the
house. as they had assumed office with
reluctance and would resign without regret,
The amendment was adopted by a vote OF
329 to ESQ, the government thus being de-.
feated. The result was received by the
Irish mombers with dcrisive cheers and
cries OF "~Boycotted"' The house, at the
suggestion OF Sir Michacl- Hicks Beach, adj
iourncd. Lord Harrington, Mr.. Groschen
Ny. Courtney, Sir John Lubbock, and other
moderate Liberals, voted with the Con-
scrvativcs. Mr.. Gladstone, NJ. Chambers
lain, Sir Charles Dixie, Mr.. Trevelyan, Mr..
Labouchcre, Mr.. Bradlaugh, Lord Rich
ard Grosvenor and all the ParnelIites
voted against the government.
The Morning Post says that the ~resigna-
ton OF the government will be announced
on Thursday.
Thomas Power O'Connor, in an inter
view, said:
The proposed introduction in parlia-
ment OF c~Oercive measures for Ireland was
a party trick based upon the hope of Wing
support-a hope that would probably
prove delusive. The anti-Irish feeling in
England was not so great as the govern
ment supposed it to be. The ministry would
certainly be defeated, and Mr.. Gladstone
would form a home rule ministry which
would have the full support OF the liberals
and the Parnellites. Mr.. O'COnnOr Charac-
terized the action ofthe government as dire
frenzy"
William O'Brien, member of parliament
from Mallow and editor OF United Ireland,
agreed with Mr.. O'Connor that the idea OF
auppressing the nationalleagu was absurd.

mostwholesome which has emanated
from that body for a long time. The
taxes which, under various devices,
werelevied on those who sold goods
on account of business houses in other
states were not imposed for the pur-
pose Of revenue, but as a measure OF
protection to their own merchants.
They might with equal right levy du-
