THE QUKEN'H SPEECH.
Special Telegram to The BKE.
LONDON , August 10. The queen's speech
is an epitaph by the present ministry ou tlio
acts of the Into ministry. Official decorum
fotbida direct ctltlciim by her majesty , of her
formr servants , but it is known that the
queen slmrcs the vlowa of the existing govern
ment respecting the Nile expedition , tlio gen
eral condition of Egypt , and England's rela-
tioni with Hassln. Her Baying that she had
learned with deep sorrow that the Nile expe
dition arrived too Into , Is understood hero ns
meaning that It started too Into , llcr premise -
iso not to relax her ( forts to place the gov
ernment and good crdar of Egypt upon a firm
foundation , Is Intcrpretad in connection with
Sir Mlchajl Ilicke-Beach'ii recent speech , as
pointing to an indefinite ) occupation. The
queen' * hopes of a satisfactory settlement of
the Afghan frontier with Husiia , ere not san
guine enough to exclude a reference to the
necessity for placing the Indian frontier In a
condition ol adequate defense ,
THE MIKIHTRl'd FOREIGN POLICY.
Lord Randolph Churchill's answer to a
question In the house of commons on Thurs
day shows plainly that ho expects no nub-
stnntlal progress of ncgotiatiocs pending elec
tions in England. The departure of M. Les-
sar from England confirms this inference.
The truth Is that Salisbury , thinking it im
possible to deal with the Umslan and Egyp
tian diificulties.elmultaneously , has devoted
himself to Egypt , reestablished good rela
tions with the chief Kuropaan powers , and co-
cured their sanction of the Issue of the Egyp
tian loan , which for four months they had ru-
fused to the Gladstone ministry. If Sir
Henry Drummond Wolff succeeds in his mis
sion to Constantinople and Cairo , the con
servatives hope to convince the country that
they have achieved a real success In their for
eign policy.
TUB CATALOGUE OF COMPLETED LEGISLATION
in the queen's speech Includes no great meas
ure passed by the Hbaral ministry , electoral
reform cxcoptecl. The prfsont ministry unex
pectedly succeeded in carrying overv import
ant bill It undertook , including the Irish land
purchase and the dwolling-for-tho-poor meas-
uris , both of which it once thought it would
be obliged to abandon. Its success is duo
partly to the loyal co-operation of the liberal
majority , and partly to their compact by
which the Irish members , for value received ,
-abstained from obstruction , nor did either
party , in view of the coming election , wish to
oppoeo the measures which wore- believed to
promise direct benefit tj the people.
THANKINQ TIIK EGYPTIAN EXPEDITION.
The adoption , in both houses of parliament ,
ofotojof thanks to the officers , soldiers and
sailors of the Egyptian expedition , was unan
imous , radicals like Sir Wilfred Lawson and
Mr. Libouchero absenting thomselvoi. Lord
Hartlngton supported the motion In the house
of commons , vainly attempting to excuse the
refusal of the late ministry to propose similar
votes on the ground of want of precedents.
Lord Wolseley'u well-earned viecoiiatship de
scends to his daughter if ha shall have no son ,
Wednesday's resolution was the first parlia
mentary tribute to Gen. Gordon , to whose
character Lord Salisbury offered a just and
adequate ministerial hoinago.
MEANS TO INQUIRE FOR ITSELF.
Lord Iddolsleigh's ( Sir Stafford Northcote ]
-commission of inquiry Into the causes of the
depression of trade and agriculture , in spite
of the refusals of loading liberal * , contains
many strong names. Free traders are
alarmed , and protest against it , became the
commission means to inquire for itself , in
stead of blindly accepting free trade dogmas.
DILKE'S DIDOS ,
Discussion of the charge against Sir Charles
Dilke is mostly confined to minor tory or
irovinclal papers. His letter to the Chelsea
{ iber.il association , ottering to withdraw ai a
candidate fur the next parliament , elisits no
xoiponse. Must of the printed gossip i wholly

that the accusation will ultimately break

mittoo of the Irish National League , com-
> osed of ono member from each elate , went
nto session hero at 11:30 : this morning. The
ilef purpose of the meeting of the cimruit-
eo was to detormeno when and where the
ext national convention shall bo held ,
onator Riddlebergcr arrived about noon and
was taken in charge by Alexander SuUivan
nd Gen. Kirwiu. During the session of the
oinmittco a letter was rood from Parnell In
which ho advised that the date of the convon-
on bo fixed at a period after the Euglish
eueral elections ,
AN ADDRESS ISSUED ,
The following is the aidrois formulated
nd adopted tin3 afternoon at the meeting of
10 Irish National League of America :
In obediencs to the suggestion of the chosen
oader of tjo people of Ireland , the natiuuil
oinmittco of the Irish national league of
Vmcricn , nscombled to designata a time tind
> lace for holding the next national convention
f the league in the United States , have do-
idod to postpone the date of meeting until
aninry , 18SG. It mupt bo manifest to nil
members of the league , anJ all friends of
elf-government in Ireland , that it would bo
mpoasiblo for Mr , Parnell to attend the con-
ention in this country or to send any of his
bio associates pending the general election ,
which will probably occur next November ,
leuce the wisdom ot his suggestion that the
invention bo postpone 1. lu tha meantime ,
lowover , the league should
INACaUHATK A PERIOD OF ACTIVITY'
not less earnest and energetic than that which
irevailod when Ireland \VM threatened with
nether artificial famine , and when her load-
rs were imprisoned and her press silenced
under a so-called liberal government. The
mty led by Mr. Parnell needs support ,
low well that tupport is deserved we need
hardly tell the world. Assuredly we need
i3t tell men of Irish biith or descent , Serv-
ng without compensation , without official
lower or patronage among aliens who ha\o
> orscuted and who have sought to degrade
hem , being numerically less than ono-twen-
leth of thi body in which they have achieved
a success uaparalelled In the history of the
trugglo for Ireo government , by their ability ,
heir unity , their discipline , their faith In the
mtico of their cause , and by their restless
abors , they have forced not only their enemies
mies , but tbo world to look upon this opprea-
ion and to listen to the recitals of an out-
aged , plundered , misgoverned people. They
have with matchless skill aeizad upon every
pportunity to thrust beforu tha world their
auao. It la ono which will
BEAR THE SORUTINV OF LIGHT.
They never allowed it to be hidden. They
) lockadod the legislation of the English par-
lament ; tuoy objected t ) , postponed and do-
eated local legislation , intended to foster and
xpedite English business interests In retalia-
ton for the dull , brutal indifference which
was shown to Irish interests. For the first
imo in English history it was imposjlbla to
utend the franchise privileges in Eagland
.ud . Scotland without giving Ireland absolute
quality in the extension. While they have
lot been able tfi compel tbo government to
lisgorge the surplus of the unexpended fund
used to support the now disestablished
hurcb , they have wrung from the champions
jf that colossal robbery the admission that it
belong ! to the people of Ireland , and have
compelled the return of a portion of the stolen
unds. They have not secured the land of
reland for the people of Ireland , but they
lave forced the snactment of legislation
ralch , although inadequate in its effect ) , it so
xtraordinary in its terms and confessions as
o amount to a confession of the enormity of
he system which has eo long ground down
ind
ISIPOViRISHED Tit J IRISH PEOPLE ,
They have not been able to get back Grat-
an'a parliament for Ireland , but they boldly
mnounco that no lesser measure will bo ac
cepted by them ; and , pending its restora
tion , though prohibited from the government
of Ireland , they have been able to dictate who
must cease and who must assume the work of
; overning England , They have driven the
> arty of coercion , the party of judicial mur
derers , the party of eviction , the party which
vainly souzht to imprison Ideas when it
hrust men into dungeon ? , the party led by
jladstono , who wrote boastingly ot the oown-
'nll of the American republic , into dl ° gr&co-
; ul retirement from Dublin castle ; and they
mvo shown that while Dublin castle was the
lomo of so-called English liberalism and the
seat of tyranny , its unnatural vice and im
ported English bestiality made it only worthy
if a situ in ancient Sodom or Gomorrah , or
n modern London. Their labors have been
lerculoan , Their accomplishments under
; ho most adverse circumstances , nro
almost miraculous. When they next np-
ioar lu parliament their number will bi In
creased from thirty to at least eighty. They
will have more or less of tin only reliable
ICogHsh support that which comes
rom fear from a number of En
glish mempera who will owe their election
.0 tbo judicious exorcise of the balance of
x ver by the exiled Irish in England and
Scotland. With that strength they will ba
able
TO THROTTLE ENQLIHH LEGISLATION ,
and thus to compel the English to allow them
to retire from the atmosphere polluted by
royal and aristocratic bestiality , and to estib-
Ish a free parliament for tbe government of a
free people in Ireland , lu the accomplish
mentofthii work they need more American
mxlll tries. We appeal to every branch of the
ieagua to give r newtd life and determination
to the work , Wo earnestly request all who
are not members to join ibo league ; and wein-
vito all members of our own race , whether
members of the league or not , to forward sub
scriptions for the uarliamentary fund to the
llev. Charles O'Reilly , D. V , troaiurer ,
Detroit , Mlcblpau , At the convention to bu
neld in January it ii more than probable
that Mr , Parnell will bo present. It Is cer-
Lain that tbe Irleh parliamentary pirty will
bo represented. At that gatheilng thu pro
gress and condition of the IrUh people will be
itated to your representatives ; and we be
lieve , as wo earnestly hope , that the next con
vention after that will be ono called to receive
a delegation which will come from the Iiinh

RMM1B310XER MILLKR REPEALS TUR SEVEN
MONTHS1 CLAUSE ,
pecial Telegram to The BEG.
WASHINGTON , August 16. Mr. Millar ,
ommiisionor of Internal revenue , yesterday
olegraphod to all revenue collectors
who have been receiving' transportation bond ? ,
n which the time specified for the delivering
f spirits at the port of exportation exceeds
huty days , that they nro not torocovo ] ! such
lands after the 15th ins t , , thus virtually ro-
isallng the coven months' clause contained in
ho circular c f January 3 , IE So , extending the
ondcd period. Collectors were further in-
tructed that they are not to approve trans-
ortation bonds after the expiration period of
lirco years mentioned in the warohoueiug
and , thernby shortening the time by ono
month , allowed under circular 283 of January
D , 1833.
The order of Secretary McCulIoch based
n an opinion of Attorney Genera IBrewster ,
vhich had the effect of adding seven months
o th'j bonded period of whisky , was frini the
irst

r of benefit to the distillers. The law very
' .early limits Itho period bonded to seven
nontha , but in the cisa of whisky that Is
landed for oxpoit , various margins of time
TO allowed by law within which the ccrtlfi-
ate that spirits were landed In a foreign port
must bo filed at the port of shipment , in
irder to rrJaaso the bondsmen on the export
iond. This mirpln of time varies from n few
veoks for North America , to Hightuen mouths
or Australian ports. Of course It
ioes not take eighteen months
o roach even the most remote
> orts nnd gat tbo landing certificate back.
Srowster and McCulIoch apparently rcasaned
hat if the spirits started asven months after
he bond was filed , they could still ro.ich the
mtipodes and get their landing certificates
jack iu eighteen months , ep they allowed tha
listillcrs to keep their spirits In bond here
hat eeven mouths , during which the distillers
10pod to find purchasers or get more relief.

id to the whole eighteen. They have

rom tha seven months' extension. Its effect
was that $ ? ,500,000 tint should have been ej
ected during the last fiscal year is still owed
he government. The first lot of whisky
lauded under secretary McCulloch's order
will have to travel or pay taxes next week.
There are about l.COl.dflO gallons of spirits
under export bonds and 5OOUOOJ , under trans-
rortUion bond ? .
The second order of the treasury respindod
iad the effect of giving the dittillera thirty
days after the tax was duo in which to de
late the uplrlta for export , Now they have
; ov. to corny right down to business and pay
axes when their three years are up , unless
hey previously gave notice that they were
'olng to expire , and if they bond their spirit *
or export they must got them out of the
ountry within thirty or forty days. The
act is that no extension except an indefinite
me Is of any real use to the dlatlllers/.and the
.iresont administration has shut down on the
vhole thing , and is going to stick to the law ,

Prcllcr , at the Southern hotel in this city last
April , arrived hero abaut seven o'clock this
morning from HAH Francisco , In charge of Do-
tcctivo Tracy and Oflloer Hadgor , of the St.

thousand men , women nnd children were at
the depot when the train ariivcd ;
tliero wai n rroat ; Bcrainbto among-
them to r/et a view of thn prisoner , but
good order was preserved , Maxwell and his

and placed iu a { utrol wagon , and driven to
the four courts , where after a brief stop in
the detectives' room in polici headquarters ,
ho was put in the "hold over , " and Is being

thing about it. Ho says all storlcut to the
contrary are entirely imtruo. Detective
Tracy also saya that Mnxtrell hai made no
statement. Maxwell wrote out , whi'p ' on the
train , for the reporter of the Republican , an
nccMint of his tilp from St. Louis to Auck
land , bis artcst there and return trip , but it
is n common place story of minor events , and
contains uo information or interest. Detec-
vo Tracy thinks that further developments
will show Maxwell to bo a wenk man men-

iis mind , that his safety depends upon his
lenco , and that ho will sUrtlc nobody with
surprising or romantic defence. Tracy
aintts ho killed Prcllor for money , _ that the
ory few admissions ho has made point In that
irection. Unit his voyage from St. Louis to
Auckland was a money spending debauch ,
nd not a well planned escape fiom justice ,
nd that it WAS the luck that takes care of
runkard sand fools , that stood instead , and
ot good management of his own.
