to dAy. Mr. Edmund Lesmy, mem
Der Of the House Of Commons for south
Sligo presided Mr.. Leamy made al
address, in which. referring 10 the re-
ports Of withdrawal Of Parnell from

leader Of the party, and that tie party

combat in Parliament during the COM

Mr.. John Redmond, member of the
House Of Commons for North Wex-
ford, rldiculed the idea Of Mr.. Parnell
being preiudiced IN politics by the YER
diet IN the O'Shea case. His colleagues,

Nanonalists were the members Of the

PARSEIL AND HIS CRITICS.
DUBLIN, Nov. lS.-The Freeman's
Journal. commenting upon the out
come of the O'Shea divorce case, and
the predictions that have been made
concerning the etfectnpon Mr.. ParnclPs
future. recalls the private lives of the
Duke of Wellington, Lord Nelson, Lord
Palmerston, AID a number OF other
prominent parsonage who, it says, IN
their time were subject TO scandals
similar TO that in which Mr.. PANEL is
now involved The Journal say that
the gable about the social ostraclsm 10
which Mr.. Parnell will be subjected Is
absurd, because he never went into
society. The pastors charged With AIS
moral well-being are not the pastors of
the majority of the IRISH people. 1t is
neither our duty nor our province TO
adjudge his private life, nor 10 examine
his conscience. Ireland's business with
him is entirely of political nature.
He has ably, faithfully and successfully
served the country. and has brought
her out of bondage and led her 10 with
IN sight Of the promised land. \ june
ture has now been reached where there
can be no swapping or changing OF
leadership. We would not change II
we could, and we could Motif We would.
The Irish, not the English people, will
decide ii the toll Of the nation for years
is to be lost or the fruit OF that toll
risked because a man has been weak
and woman frail.
