LONDON, Feb. 10, IL p. Mt is the gen.
eral opinion that the balance of the advaut
ages resulting from the Boulogne negotia
tions remain with Mr.. Parnell Mr.. Nc
earthly and hrs colleagues are publicly
satisfied with their position, and assert tina
they will never attempt to renew the nego
tiations. Privately they are indig
nant at being check-mated by tn
| Parnellites. Their meeting TO-DAY
disclosed depression and apathy, only fif
teen members of the section being presen
at the appointed time. These proceeded t,
appoint a committee to organize the party
In Ireland to combat the Pnrnellites. TIL,
latter claim that there is no doubt that the
are rapidly gaining strength in Ireland
which will result in return of the bulk O
the nationalist to allegiance tn Mr.. Par
nell. The liberals aud McCarthyites de
| clare that Mr.. Parnell will be beaten at tn
| polls.
The NeWs says: with Mr.. Parnell him
| self neither MIR. Gladstone nor Mr.. McCar
thy has the smallest concern. Since tn
famous deposition in the committee room i
has been their duty to exhaust the chances 0
compromise with Mr.. Parnelrs follower.
not with Mr.. Parnell. The result will be
triumph for the liberals and the smashin
Of Parnellism."
| DAvITT TO KEEP MCCARTHY.
1t is exp ected that the McCarthyites wi
have the active help of Michael Davitt i
| Ireland.
The Lenten psstorals of the irish bishor
are already having an effect. 1t is know
that the church will wage an active crusad,
under the inspiration Of the vatican
Mr.. Parnell says he is certain to II
ceive the bulk of the money ser
from America, and he counts als
upon obtaining the public adhesion {
Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien upon their leav
ing prison. MIR. Parnell says the press he
fallen into grave mistake in treating ex
tracts from the McCarthy-Sexton repol
given TO the press as read at yesterday
meeting as passages from Mr. Morley
memorandum. Mr.. Parnell wants Mr.. Nc
earthly to publish the text of the meme
randum. If MIR. Mccarthy refuses Nj
Parnell will probably seize the first chanc
to publish the matter. Mr.. Parnell wi
speak at Roscommon Feb. %, when he wi
state the substance of Mr.. Gladstone's cor
cessions
