London, Nov. 3o-Mr Morley writes TO the
press as follows:
The manifesto of Mr Parnel contains two
or three statements affecting me which desire
without loss Of time TO correct
FirSt-I made no sort Of attempt 10 fctIcr Nr
Parnels action with reference 10 the Land bIl
He agreed with IN all our conversations that
the bill ought 10 he opposed omittne the piIa-
ciplc of local control and for other spccI-
fed in his speech Of April -. The only quest ou
was as 10 the form Of motion tor thc rejection
of the bill. | pointed ont 10 him On April "a
that, as many Liberals objected 10 the whole
principle of the bill, an amendment staiing then

its rejection smpliciter. Parncll aesentcd. Two
days later lie explained 10 me his alternative plan

my colleagues had formed any conclusions against
legislation. ] never said or limited that it would
be impossible for Irish Parliament to do any
thing in the matter did say that, whether BY
direct or indirect action. evicted tenants ought

cepiion Of difficulties and the despair which Alr
Parnc aScribes 10 me.
Mr.. Gladstone is well able 10 deal with his
own share OF the manifesto, but | am bound 10
say that on November 10 | was under the most
distinct impression that Mr. Parnell did not oh

year ago as subjects for provisional examination,
if those suggestions were likely To make the
scheme generally acceptable TO Great Britain
Mr. Gladstone, writing 10 Mr.. Mellor, the Lib

Mr. Parnclls manifesto has widencd the gulf
made by recent disclosures, and separated him from
the Liberal party, who have now 10 consider the
