Mr.. Gladstone resumed his seat amid bursts
OF enthusiastic cheers which were sustained
FOR several minutes. His eeeh was three hours
and twenty-five minutes in duration. He fin
iShed at clock.
AN EXPLANATION BY rREvELYAN
When the applause had subsded. Mr.. GEORGE
QUO lfeVeiyan, who res emily resigned the po-
sltl2n Of secretary for Scotland arose, and after
euicgiziSg Mr.. GladstoneS Grafton proceeded
TO say that he interposed shns early in the le-
bate IN order to explain the reason OF his Tesj.r-
nation. lie resigned with extreme conjunction
ana regret, although the step, when finally de-
cIded upon, was taken with neither doubt as 10
Its propriety nor the least hest.tion He had
joined the Cabinet BECAUSE as he considered at
the time, 10 have remained outside would have
been fantanOunt to a cOnies ion that the Liberal
party was home rule party. This was q CON
iessi0n which he should never be willing to
make. lie could never consent to such q
scheme as Mr.. Gladstone had proposed. He had
done his best to prevent the Liberals from iden-
tlfylng themselves with what he regarded as
neither for the welfare nor benefit of the
country. Not longer ago than last June the
who'e Cabinet was of the same opinion as him
sell. What was 1t, he would like 70 know, that
heg happened since then to change them? The
only security, he urged, that Parliament would
have, in acceding to Air. Gladstone's plan, for
the money they world be called upon TO vote
would be the willingness of the Irish farmers
to keep UP their payments. How much depend-
ence could be placed upon that?
The Speaker at this point interr1fy,ted NJ
Ireyelyan, and reminded him that no land bill
had yet been submitted. ana he proceeded with
ms speech by asking. " How long would it te if
the measure that has been submitted should be-
come law, before the Irish contribution to the
Imperial eX2hequer would be denounced by the
Irish and reprobated as an English tribute? For
my part, have no hesitation in saying that a
complete separation of Ireland from Great
Britain would be preferable 10 the plan of the
Government that has just been proposed We
should then know the worst at once"
PARNELLs E5MARKs
At the conclusion of Mr.. Treyelvan's speech
Mt Parnel arose, and was received with cheers
by the Irish members Mr.. Treyelyan he said
had stated why he had left the Government.
but not why he had resigned his post as Chief
Secretary. lCheers from the Irish benches
Mr. Parnel then went on to justify his past ut
teranees and action, which had been impugned
Dy Mr. Irevelyan. Speaking of America and the
assassination literature which comes from Amer
lea. PaInell said that most of the literature was
neither American nor Irish literature. If Mr.
! IrcVclyan he CON 1nued, were to study the
literature OF America at this moment, he would
ma that sympathy for a just settlement of the
grievances of Ireland by the concession of
whether Irish or native-born Americans and
more especially that native-born Americans are
welcoming the efforts of Mr.. Gladstone, in the
belief that they will bring peace between Eng
land and Ireland, and more especially be-
tween the Irish-Americans and England
II Is remarkable fact that the great
meetings now being held in favor
of an Irish Legislature are mainly called to-
gether and organized by native born Americans
by editors and conductors of Irish-American
newspapers. We regard the fact that during the
last five or six months we have succeeded in
nearly gaining the sympathy of the two great
parties in American-DemocTatic and Republi-
can-as good omen for the future" GCheers1
As to the bill before the House. while resery-
ing his full expression of opinion until he had
seen the bill, Mr.. ParnelI congratulated the
House on the fact that there was still living an
English statesman who could devote his atten-
tlon to this important matter, and he begged to
thank Mr.. Gladstone for what would surely
prove beneficial measure.
THE FEELING IN DUBLIN
DUBLIN, April sth.-The city has been in \
state of political excitement all day. There has

being received from London have been crowded
all day. The excitement here over Gladstones
action concerning home rule exceeds that
caused by Catholic emancipation.

lures are Catholics.
