LONDON, Feb. 4.-The opening of Par
lament is the absorbing topic among
politicians. The Liberals say it is their
duty to call attention to the way
In which Ireland is at present governed,
and to the neglect of the administra-
tion. This will involve two important
amendments and if the report is then
published it will be mentioned in the
speech, and will form the subject Of at
least one great debate. There will
then be the further question of the cir
cumstances in which the false charges
were made against Mr.. Parnell, and
there is increasing probability that the
proceedings on the address cannot be
concluded before the end of February,
if oven at so early date.
