w -rroted with cheering by Mr. Parneil'. op-'
Mr Clansy then offered his amendment, which
wvided that, in view of the difleren-e of opin?
ion between Mr. < .adstonc and Mr. Parneil a. to
tbe aceuracy of the latter's recollectlons of the

lnformation on tbe departure from the bill of 1. SO
gaade by Mr. Gladstone in his ouggestion* a_"cctin__
the oontrol of the Irish constabulary and the
iettlement. of the land question.
A prolonged debate took place on the a .end
fcent.
Mr. Parneil intimated that if the party took
the respousibility off liis shoulders and would in
tist upon the Liberal leariers promising to carry
an aeeeptable Home Rule bill through the House
of Commons, in tlie faee of opposition, he would
retire from the lea detship. Hc asked thc meeting
to aoeept Mr. (lancy's resolution. when. pon, he
?aid, the alliance between thc Xationalists and
LiberalB would l?e renewed.
Mr. Healy refused to submit to Mr. Parnell's
ttipulations. Hc deciared that they were even
beyoti'l the llncs of the comprouiisc suggested at

tho meeting adjourned. It will reaissemble at
noon to-morrow.
A rumor was circulated this afternoon to the
effect that a division had been taken by tlie
Nationalist meeting oa Mr Claney's amendment,
ond that it had been rcjected. Inquiry proved
that thero was no truth in the rumor. On thc
contrary, the latest pha.se of the siiuation bids fair
for an agreement, a committee having beeu ap
pointed to w_it upon Mr. (iladstone aud endeavor
to obtain from hi*n the MMMM desirod by .Mr.
Parneil. The committee consists of Messrs Par.
nell. Sexto_., Healy. .Mistin McCarthy, John Red

Whom to negotiate
Refore the appnintment of thc committee Mr.
ParneH asked tne meeting for an informai __._
of hands on Mr. Claney's amendment. Tliis dis
closed the faet that only Measrs. llarry and t liaik-e
eontinued to hold out against the anicniiinent.
Hcaides Mr. Gladstone, the committee will also see
Sir William Vernon Ilarcourt and Mr Morley, aad
will endeavor to conc.lude the uego'iati.itis t?.
tnorrow.
At a caucua -his morning of the oppoa__rf_ of
Mr. Parneil, who compriae a majority of tlie mem?
bers of the S'ationalist party iu the House of < <nn
Biotis. a resolution was adonted not to aecept the
(Jlaney compromise at to-tlay's meeting. I.ut to
foroe matters to a decisive issuc forthwith.
Jam_. L. Curew, Memt?er of Farliainent for
North Kildare, is ill, and is coutined to bll b_l.
Nevertheless, he has sent a message to Mr. Far?
nell. sayiug he will support him. .
During yesterday'? discussion on Mr. (lancy's
toropnsed amendment, Mr. I'limcy arnmmice'l that
ne had authority f?r tbe statement that Mr.
Farnell would retire lf the oou.rminications with
Mr. Gladstone had a satisfactory result. .lohn
Redmond eonfirmed Mr. (lancy's siatcment.
Mr. Sexton said tlie ai.nouncenient had given
him creat gratitlcation, nnd enabled him to hope
that Mr. Farnell wonld viiTuntarily resijtn his place
under circumstances that would enal.le tln.se
differing with him now to IffRC t'nat he had made
his retirement from public life the _____ of ob
taining an advantuge for his country. iCheers.
Timothy Healy, speaking with eniotion, said
that if Mr. Farnell felt able to n.eet the party
on the points put forword, his voice would bc

Bouant with thc liberties of his <_uiitr.v. to eull
PanneU baek t<> bis propei place :i* lcmler of tlie
irish raee. Tliis declaration was j-reeted with
enthusiastio cheers.
Mr. Cbane. held that Mr. (lancy's proposal
raised a false issue, and could not possibly effecf
w aettlement^an assertion that brooght criea of
diw-nt from manv of the meml. rs
Mr. Farnell asked tlio ineeting to pause fur
twenty-four hours in order that he nii?l.t consider
whether his retirement frotn public liie should
be governed by the ______ of the party or by
his own views regarding the nature of the replies
of the English statestu .i to vital questions, such

Ihe Irish Parhament, nnd ihe land question. I'pon

Concord, N. HL, T-C ..-ThirW-seven RepBl
licaus, about one fourth ol the I.cpnblican atrengtb
in the lower houae of the NcvV-HaniPNlure [.esris
lature, voted with the Demcorats to-day in favor
of the Judiciary Cornmittee's report declnriiif
that it ia not cxiiedient to -dapl any lcgialation
instructing the clcrk how he shall aet || making
up tho roll of the n< xt House. Thi* r.-sult re>
<|iiircs the clerk to construe Me constitution an4
thc statutes for himself. It calls upon him ta
perform an aet of judgment upon each of seventy
two ccrtiHcatcs that wiil Ih- proscnted to him ncxl
January by claimanlf. to scat* from the so-callrd
classe.l towns, nnd from Ihe wards and towns thafi
have clcctcd additional menihers by virtue of an
increasc in their populatien as shown by thc cen?
sus ?f lROO. It leavefr him able to turn ou* anv
political result hc pleases, ar.d to citc cmin^nB
legal aiithoritv in suppr.rt of whatcver action ha
thinks lit to tr.ke.
When the Legislature was eloet.'d which has jnM
vofcl (o leave thc aff.iirs of New Ilampshirc in
this perilo is position, it was openly ebarged thal
it was "a Posfon and Mainc body." Hy this waa
nicant that tlic Democratic politieians, witli Frank
Jones at their head, who own thc IViston and
Maine Knilroad would be able fo control tha
votcs of the enrire Democratic party and of a
snflioient number of I'opubltcans to obtain anm
legislation thcy wished. No docisive test of IM
r-iiirond's htrrn^-tli was had diirini the sessicm af
1**9, hut whrn tlie Popul.lienn caucus, hy a two
thirds majority. resolvcd to cloot Senator Chand
ler, il was nllogcd by tlic Senatot's l'opulilicp.n
opponcnts, who composf thc GtUtafH faction, that
he was aldod in his cunvass and Ln the vote of
the. caucus by Fn.nl; Jones's influence. nnd that
Mr. Chandler had laid himself and the Republican
party with him under obligations to Jones aa<1
his nll-powerful railroad. No evidence in supp.rt
of this allc-'afion was over prodnood, and, ns hnfl
been fully d.-moiistratc.l in tiie incidents that h-MJ
takcn place in this cxtra session, none existed.
.lones did not lind it nccssaiy during thc regular
session to round up his l.cpuhlicnn allies, ar.d un?
til to-day no positivc proof of their identity had
been a.lduced. Hut to-day thcy wcre uncovcrel.
Every man of thcni was MMpdM to stand up
wher his name wns called and l>o conntcl, nnd
thc Ucpul.licans of New-IIampshiie now discover,
not so much to their suipii?e as their dis?ust, that
the men who made those chir^cs a.'airs" S'nator
Chandler arc thc vcry men who arc covercd by
Frank Jones's m.,rtg:i?cs, and at his dciiiand thev
have yiel.led the safcty and peace of the State ami
thc interest and honor of their party to f.-ed Den*.
ocratic ambition.
In the light of this result the motive of the ex
traordinary pamphlet which Senator Chandler is?
sued just, liefore he went to Washin_;ton b'oon.es
apparcnt. IIc had Ivoon falscly and maliciously
acoused of intriuuing with Jones t<> the hurt of
thc Ivepubli.an party, which was just the offenca
which he knew his accusors would be g__-f of
so soon as .Jones ehose to put the screws on them.
He foresaw tliat Jones would be very likely to
apply the acrews at this session in the interest ol
Democratic supremacy in the next legislature;
and, if it came to that, he meant that the Repub?
lican party of New-IIampshire should witnesi iha
spectacle in clear and plain relie-f. Ile meanB
that the party should know who among ita
supposc 1 leaders and who among its trusfed
n-prescutatives were Kepublieans and who were
not, who were true and who were disloyal, who
were influonce.l by honest motives and genuine
party spirit and who wcre thc creatures of a
Democratic boer-maker with a po.-ketl'ul of gold.
The issuing of that pamphlet was not a blunder,
It was not the "aet of a sick man."' lt was a
brilliant stroke of political sagacity, an.l every.
I.o.ly says so tii-night. It needs to be added that
not every member who voted lp favor af tha
Judiciary Cornmittee's rcport is open to these oi
any harsh imputations. Several?it isn't, ncees
sary to mention their names, as they are oasik
picked out?ncted in good faith and according t<
their conscientious convictions. Their judgment
may bc impcachablc, but their motives are not

IiCgislaturc, whose servauI lic was, mark out MM
line for him to follow:* Shoul.l thc risk I>e nm
of partisan conflicts which threaten to end in tha
organization of two differcnt Legislatures and ia
the ohoiee of two Govemors, or should that risk

accorfl with the confetiuitimn l-" It may hc hard
to see how there could Iie two opinions on aa
issue so clear, execpt as they wcre dictated by
pcrsonal ambition or party interest, hut it is hu
doubtcdly truc that si'ver.U of the Kepublieans,
possibly half a do/.cn, wjio voted with the Demo?
crats to-day, did so with purc motives and a good
consciencc.
\_ for thc rest they were the creatures of a
