LONDON, June 26.-Mr. and Mrs. Parnell
entertained some friends yesterday evening
at WalsinRham terrace, and received TODAY
several intimates. Parnell has sent greet
ing to number of adhersnts in the COM
mons. expressing pleasure that the pro-
longed period of suspense is over, and
thanking them for their steadfast friend
ship during his troubles. He writes under
the apparent conviction that his marriage
will enable him to be reinstated as
Irish leader. A strong impression in
the same direction prevails in the COM
mons, in spite of knowledge of the fact that
the Catholic clergy will not accept the mar
riage as condoning his offenses. The Eng
lish liberals are ready to hail him as man
doing his best TO atone for his fault. No
immediate restoration Of confidence be-
tween Parnell and the liberal leaders is
possible, nor is it probable that the faction
feud will end without long opposition from
some of his now irreconcilable enemies,
but the marriage has deprived his foes OF
one of their most potent weapons of attack.
His moral position assured polical resto-

Mrs. Parnell indicate that after period OF
seclusion it 1s their intention to enlarge
their social life. Mrs. Parnell talks of
leaving Brighton and taking large house
in London. If she wins her probate suit,
she will be rich and able to entertain.
Those knowing her best say she aims to
form a political and artistic salon, to create
which she has capacities equal to her am
bition. 1t has long been known that she has
been a valuable political ally of
Parnell. with whom she has discussed every
turn of affairs moro intimately than any
member of his party. It can be predicted
ance, Parnell will Immediately modify his
tactics. In the fight with McCarthyites
reconciliation will be the watchword. Th 9
first fight, Carlow, will be fought on the
Parnellite side with great attention to per-
| sonal amenities.
Mccarthy has practically, withdrawn
from the leadership of his party. His ply
sicians warn him to avoid excitement.
Parnell, during an interview at Brighton
to-day upon his marriage to Mrs. O'Shea
said he found it impossible to procure a
marriage license for any country church
and In order to prevent delay he thought il
best to have the ceremony performed at q
registrars Office in Steyning. Parnell added
that the church ceremony would be cele-
brated in London as soon as he
and Mrs. Parnell were able to- put in
a fortnight's residence there. This would
probably be after the elections at Carlow
for successor i'll parliament to the late
OGorman Mahon. Mr.. Parnell intends tc
devote special attention to the Irish indus
trial question, in which he is more inter.
ested than in any other at present. Re-

owners. Parnell said he intends, if posi-
'ble, to visit tho United States during the
coming autumn, being of the opinion that
the sentiment of Irish and Irish-Amer-
leans on the other side is in his favor. He
will try to attend the Irish convention tc
be held at Baltimore. When asked what he
thought would be the political effect Of hi
marriage he said he had not given that
question thought and did not intend tc
think of it: He was now experiencing
greater happiness than ever previously dur.
ing the entire course of his life. The
reporter with whom Parnell had this inter.
view adds that he never saw Mr.. Parnell in
