ParnelI says that during the ten years of
independence OF the Irish Parliamentary
party, it has, because Of its independence,
forced upon the English people the neces

believes The party will obtain home rule

In conclusion. he says: 81 do not believe

PRESS COMMENTS.
All the papers comment at great length on
Il
| been exploded in anger, and Parnell turns
| states evidence against the conspiratorS to
! save his own political life. His manifesto
has rendered the prospects Tor home rule
| worse than at any time since 1885.
| The Daily News says: This is the last
| fatal disservice which obliterates many ii
not all of his Incompatible services.
The News appeals TO the Irish clergy and
people not to allow Parneil TO drag down
The home-ruie cause in his own fall by a
| belief IN the serious misapprehensions of
| their Eugish friends.
The Chronicle says Parnell's most power
full blow is a revelation of the abject par
| alySlS OF the Gladstonlan party over The land
| question and MGrley's confession OF their
| Inability to assist sufferers from the plan OF
| campaign. The manifesto shows that Par
nell is not the person with whom any states
| man can venture to hold confidential rela-
| tions.
The Standard says the manifesto is highly
damaging 10 the credit of Gladstone and
Morley as straightforward statesmen. No
| English politician will ever trust Parnell
again, but lie has chosen the right line to
win back the regard Of Irishmen.
The Times says the manifesto shivers
forever The Suppositlon that Parnell can
] fiiendor honorable foe. The Times thinks,
however. that it will probably sffect its
| purpose in Ireland. and refers to the severity
| Of the blow inflicted ON Gladstone's i'm
| practicable schemes.
| GLADsToNE's SUCCESSOR.
| In case the Irish National members, at the
meeting Monday, favor Parnrll. move
meDt willimmedately be started among the
| Liberals 10 give English reforms precedence
| over home rule, and meeting to advocate
the reverting to the progr mme ofs 1885 will
be summoned. Sir William Vernon Har-
| couIt, it is bel eyed, will succeed Gladstone
| in the leadership of the Liberal party In the
| event of the latter retiring.
The Star (Rome Ruie) opposed the Irish
| Land Bill introduced in the Commons last
night. The measure. the Star says, is based
upon fraud, ard is sure TO end in disaster.
ARCHBISHOP wALsH's LETTER.
| DUBLIN, Nov. 28.-In a letter published
to-day, Archbishop Walsh declined to make
| pubic statement of his opinion OF the
| Parnell case until he has an opportunity to
consult his Episcopal brethren. He says
next Mondays meeting OF the Parliamentary

upon the Bishops OF Ireland the grave
duty of considering whether or how lar it
| Will be IN their pnwer 10 continue or place

deuce which, as a body. they have felt iusti-
in placing in it in the past. In conclusion.
the Archbishop says he does not feel con.
yinced that I'VE are yet in a position toIform
| a final judgment on the case out of which
the present unhappy crises has arisen. At
| all events, it is matter that must be de-
cided one way or the other before many
days"
AN APPEAL TO GLADSTONE.
