ParnelI ana RaIfnnr

LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE final winding
up Of the parliamentary session has at
tracted no attention whatever. With
one of those exhibitions of cold sub
tlety with which his whole career is
filled, and yet which warmer mortaIs
meyer quite grow accustomed to, Mr..
Parnell has allowed the session to end
amid an exchange of courteous phrases
between him and Mr.. Balfouf. No
body to hear the gentle tones of the
Irish debate the last night or two
would have dreamed that this WAS the
finale of a session which had witnessed
the killing of Irish peasants defending
their right to the cabins they them
selves had built, the wholesale impris-
onment of Irish members and the un-'
paralieled outrage of the conduct OF
the Parnen commission; but we are
again at the stage where policy comes
to the front.
1t is known that the tories are going
to produce two big Irish measures at
the opening of the next session. Mr..
Parnell's sudden amiability means oGIy
his desire to have these as sweeping
and comprehensive as possible. He is
sure enough of the English liberal sup
port, so now once more he turns the
smooth side of his tongue toward the
tories to lure them into the wild idea
of outbidding the liberals for his friend
ship. 1t is not everything that chiv-
alric mind could imagine, but dare
say 1t viii turn out very good business.
