Cable-Special to tlio UiiKl Tlio debate on
Mr. I'm mill's amendment , which came to a
close nt about I this moinlng , was ono of the
most powerful and best sustained we have
had in the house of commons for many
ycais. Parnell's own speech was singularly
Impressive , and was acknowledged such by
nil who listened to it Mi. Gladstone was
almost at his best I mean Ids best of recent
jcars. Chambeilain's bitter , spiteful and
malignant speech was , as a mere
piece of patllamentary polemic and
rhetoric , the finest display bo
lias ever made. Labouchero was delightfully
sarcastic mid dioll. 1 cannot say anything
hlirber In praise of Sexton than to declare
that while everybody was awaiting Ids speech
with the most Intense anxietv , no one was
disappointed with It when It came.
A roiincio.VH CONCI.USIO.V.
Of course the amendment was defeated by
nlarne majority. This was expected nnd
was , Indeed , Inevitable. Mr. Gladstone and
many other liberals who avowed themselves
favorable to the principle of the amendment ,
abstained fiom voting on the ground that It
\vouldnotbe reason.iblo to ask too much
from the government at the veiy moment of
their coming Into olllco. Two of our Irish
members are away in Ameiica. One other ,
who was In the house of commons all the
time , abstained from voting nnd even fiom
taking Ids seat , In the formal sense of the
woul , because ho wns advised on thy best
lojral authority that by taking his seat tor the
county which lately elected him he might
piejudlce his claim to be dcclaied elected on
n petition of the sitting member for an ulster
city , which bo contested at the general elec
tion. The actual meinbets. therefore , who
voted for Parnell's amendment do not by
any means lepresent the number of men in
the commons ! who favor Its object.
O.VK onr.AT HISUI.T :
of the debate Is that the Irish landloid's
chances of being bought out at the cost of the
rent payers of three kingdoms Is gone for
ever. Gladstone's pamphlet on the Irish
question , which has just been published ,
makes it clear that he will never a aln try
nnd attempt to buy out the Irish landlords.
"Their sands are fast tunning out , " he said
In his speech In the commons last session.
Ills pamphlet now declares In substance that
their sands have run out.
A ct'wous Hinirr.
In the commons thlssession ono sees a cur
ious sight. As most of your readers know ,
what Is called the tiont opposition bench
the bench which faces the treasury bench , on
which ministers sit Is usually occupied by
members of thogovernmcntwhlchhave latest
gone out of ofllcc. Men who come Into olllce
occupy the treasmy bench , while the men
turned out occupy the fiontopposltlon bunch.
This time , however , Ilaitlngton and Cham
berlain , who helped to turn out Gladstone's
goveinmont , Insisted on the right to sit on
the fiont opposition bench , on the ground
that they am still Ilbcials , still members of
Gladstone's party In their general princlnles ,
nnd woio members of Gladstone's govern
incut. The lusiilt of this resolve has been
thai men langed side by side on the same
bench get up and
IIKNOUNCU IACII oTiir.n
Tvlthall the fervor of political rivalry , fury
and peiaonal hate. Chamberlain stands up
Justbesldo John Motley and rattles at Morley -
ley as If the two had been life-long opponents.
Harcourt gets up and declaim ? away vigor
ously and vehemently at Chamberlain , who
Is sitting on the same bench nnd just under
his eyes. I remember Disiacli once humor
ously complaining to the house of Glad
stone's energy of invective , and observing ,
miild the delighted laughter of the house ,
that ha was often glnd to remember that
very solid plecu of fuinltnro stood between
the right honorable gentleman and himself.
That solid piece ot futnltnio was n table
placed between the treasury and the opposi
tion bnnches , coveied with reference books ,
Etnndlng orders and big despatcbo boxes.

lint now , In the now divisions of paities ,
the iiiotcction of n solid piece of furniture Is
not always of nuy avail , If , in some future
debate , Chamberlain should sting Haicoiut
Into uncoiiipii'iablo fiuy , theruls no ban let
between the two men nothing to piovonl
Haicourl simply falling with all his vast bulk
and weight upon the slender form Of the
hapless Chambeilain nnd crushing him out oi

on Thursday , Chambcilaln was interrupter
by bimuiiomaikfiom n tormer colleague it
ofilco--Hairy Fowler. Clumbeilaln got
angry , and , looking sharply at Fowler , who
was sitting at tlio same dcik miltu ne.tr , said
the roinnik was nonsense. Suppose , now
thnt Fowler had lost his temper. What bar-

Something will have to be done.
IN TUi ; OLD DAYS.
I think In days long past It used to be the
way with the men of both parties to sit side
by tide. Many a time ilia Sir Itobert Wai
jiolomid Putney pitch Into each other fi on
the-sell-same bench. Hut om generation has
never before seen any thing of the kind. I
adds immensely to the oddity of the whole
condition of things. IVihaos , when Cham
bcrlaln Is backing up the torles and denonne
itigthe Irish luitlonalUts , when Han-omth ,
tbuudcrliiE for k < mio rule and speaking as If
ho rather preferred Parnoll to his own
brother , It Is but natural that there should bo
some curious novelty , also , in the outward
ispect nt the debate.

majority of the government seemed to take
the opposition aback. This Is accounted for
when one considers the number of the lib
eral abstentions , Many walked out of the
house , following the example of Harcourt
and other piomlnont Gladstonlans. Parnell
imiit have known that he could not win , but
be looked dejected , ns did his pai ty genernlly ,
w hen the numbers were announced. There
never having been nny doubt on the toty side ,
there was
xo GIIIAT : nxn.TATiotf
at the victory. Thoeheois were soon over ,
and the house quickly dispersed , worn out
by the hot nlghi and by nearly nine hours
Bitting. The debate , In spite of every elfoit
last night , llaggod much. Sexton could not
fail to score good hits hero and theie , but It
was generally admitted that he did not eiinal
his usual form. Ilarcomt was hampciod by
his past iccord , and found moie difficulty
than ordinary In casting oil his avowed
opinions. On bis declaring land purchase to
bohencefoith quite distinct fiom the home
rule question , taunts at
THIS NT.W SOVIintSAUl.T
were levelled at him from both sides ,
lint In making the statement he evidently
only fullilled the Insinuations left by Glad
stone. The gcncial line of dlscaiding the
land purchase bill Is clcaily Indicated In Mr.
Gladstone's pamuhlet , Issued to-day. When
Sir Michael Hicks-lteach asked him If his
chief had iiuthoii/cd him to make an an
nouncement , he replied , "You will see In a
few hours. " The cntlie Ilbet.il paity , except
Morley , have demanded that the puiclmse
scheme bo thrown oveiboaid. The course
Morley will take is looked for with sonic lu-
teiest , because ho has always constantly de
clared that the two plans are inseparable. So
Dublin was very glum last night when Har
court was making his statement , Hohad not
seen the Gladstone pamphlet , and possibly
the revelation came on him by surprise.
One thing is certain , namely , that the
LAND I'L'itcii.vsi : SCIITMI : is DIAD. :
No party daie levlso it. The lory patty. It
Is quite clear , could not suppoit any such
proposition. Whether there was any use in
having , a heavy defeat registered against
them thus eaily , the Pamcllites doubtless
know best. In what Its usefulness consists
Is not obvious to others. Such a harmonious
majority must necessarily discourage the
lank and file , and go far towaids convincing
the public that the homo rule party is help
less In ptiliamcnt. The abundant rumors in
circulation of n split among tint unionists in
the libcial camp are all knocked summailly
in the head. It anybody supposed Cham
berlain or Haitingtoii was Inclined to return
to the true told , yesterday morning's de
cision undeceived him. The position re
mains as indicated two weeks ago. While a
separate paillamcnt In Dublin Is the plat
form ot the liberal party under Gladstone ,
the secessionist will stand out practically for
division. Yesterday may bo taken as de
noting the course of future events. The an
ticipations that the toiles will take up Glad
stone's policy are
MKIU : cmi.mmi DP.EAMS.
Their leaders nnd followers nlike believe
the country dead opposed to that policy.
Consequently it would bo sheer madness to
adont It. This is their view , right or vviong ,
and , holding it lirmly , they are not -likely to
follow in Gladstone's path or bring In any
measuio establishing a separate parliament.
cnAMiii.iti , UN'S IITICTIVI : : : si'iicir.
Chamberlain's speech , undoubtedly the
most effective delivoied throughout tlm debate -
bate , showed wonderful lenliness , In spite
ot continual Interruption , and great quick
ness of icpartee. He stiuck out light and
left with uncirlng success. This even Ids
opponents concede. It Is notsurptising that
ho stirred up much agitation in the Irish
party and the mote Impulsive members
showed temper Indlscietcly. Even the Pall
Mall Ga/etto on Friday , though supposing
the Paincllito cause , had a few words of re
monstrance against violence In parliament.
The Irish leaders aio Ireo fiom blame they
are always decoious but some of their loi1
lowers need a Irlondly hint. O.hei wise pub
lic prejudice may bo 111010 deeply excited
against them than ever. P.irllamuntaiy dis
order can do no uooil now , bo the llnal results
what they may.
A COM ) KACT TO PACK.
The fact must bo faced that a majoilty of
those letuined to this house aio against a
separate parliament tor liDland. Thu union
ists on both sides of the house will adhere to
that decision , but the Painollitcs and Glad
stonlans hope to Indiico the country to in
verse. It. Modciatlon , the loadeis well know ,
may do what violence never can. It la not to
bo denied that troubled times nro before the
country , such ns nro calculated to severely
try nil sections. Hut the gravity of the eilsls
obviously supplies all the more icason for the
exciclso of patiencu and modervtton , unless
Ireland is to be plunged Into the
IIOI'.UOKS OK CU'II , VV.KIt.
Other amendments to thunddicss will bo
pressed , but assuredly with the same icsnlt.
Tliero Is nhvnys an ample number present to
suppoittho government , about two bundled
and twontj toiles being hold fast In London ,
und at least clifty llbeial-unionibts on the
other sldo. Tlio Ilbcials havii not jet Issued
any uigeiit call to their sui > po > ters. Indeed ,
It was whispered on Fililay night that the
chlet liberal whip was keeping his men out
of the house , This would account
for the empty bunches and the weakness on
division of thu party. If the Gladstonlans
aio only troing to give the 1'arnulllte.sii moial
support , and to absent themselves when a
division Is taken ,

Aio Gl.ulitonians , while , professing faith in
their loader's opinions , afraid ot the consti
tuencies ? The leader himself Is not anxious
to record his vote just now foi the Irish
party. 1 express no further opinion
on Parnclllto piospccts , but simply bilnz
to .vour notlco the nciual facts of the

with0110 uniform nisult defeat. This can
not be changed until the country changes the

Loxnox , Auctin 2 * . [ Special Cablegram
to the Ui.B.1 Gladstone's pamphlet on the
Irish question ends with a postscript , dated
the tM of August , and which Is ns follows :
"Since these pages were written the princi
pal Intentions of the ministers in respect to
Irehnd have been announced. The states
men who In January deemed coeiclvo
measures an absolute necessity , do not now
propose them , although agrarian crime has
rather Increased and Ireland has been per
turbed , so they said , by the proposal of homo
rule. This is
A 1IKAVV 11T.OW TO Cor.llClOX
and a matked sign of pro rcss. 1 am con
strained to say that on no other head do the
announcements supply nny causes for con-
cratitlntlon. l.ariro Itish subjects , ilpo for
treatment , are to be referred to commissions
of Inquiry. This Is a policy , while social
order Is in question , of almost Indclinlto
delay. Moreover , while a commission Is to
Inquire whether the rates of judicial rents are
or are not such ns can bo paid , the aid of
the law for levying the present rents In No
vember has been spcclalli nnd emphatically
promised. This Is a marked illscoitia eiucnt
to remissions of rent and a poweiful
STIVIUI.tlS TO EVICTIONS.
A project has been sketched ot Imposing
upon the state the payment of all moneys
icqulrcd to meet the difference between these
actual rents and what the land can fnlily
bear. This project is , in piinclplc , radically
bid , and it would bo an act of rapine oti the
ticasuiy of the country. Wheicas the great
est evil to Ireland Is that Us ministerial and
administrative systems aio felt to be other
than lush , no proposal is made for the ns-
conbtruction of what Is known as
Ilt.ltI.lN CASII.K OOVnilN'MllNT.
It Is proposed to spend large sums of public
money on public vvoiks of all kinds for the
material development of Iieland under Kug-
llsh authority and Dublin castle administra
tion. This plan is , In the highest degree ,
wasteful. It Is unjust to the Biitish tax
pajer , and it is an obvious attempt to divert
the Irish nation , by pecuniary Inducements ,
from Its honoiable nim of national self-gov
ernment , and will as such be resented. The
limitation of local go\eminent hi Ireland to
what may at this moment bedcsned foi Gtcnt
Britain is just to none ot our nationalities ,
rests upon no recognbcd principle , and is cs
pecially an unju > t limitation of Irish national
desire. In my opinion , such a policy tor
dealing with tlio Irish people ought not to be
and cannot be adopted. "

UF.I.KAST , August 28. [ New York Herald
Cable-Special to the Hun. ] Hollast has had
two weeks of peifeet freedom from riotinir ,
but durini : this period the inhabitants of the
disturbed distiicts suffeied incessantly fiom
the assaults and petty thieving of bands of
roughs. This has been especially so in tlio
Shank Hill dlstilct , whcio the abencc of the
police lelt the sliopkccpeis.il themeicyof

whisky or a hall crown contiibulion towards
the burial of somopuiciy Imaginaiy corpse.
Tlio authorities refused to replace the
police until some guaiauteo was given that
peaceable residents would no longer shelter
the loughs , but aid the police to auest all ills-
oidcrly persons. Forced loans and other in
convenient icsults of mob rule had become
so unbearable this week that to-day the Or
ange leaders and the Shank Hill shopkeep
ers met Major Harland and the police ofll-
ceis to discuss plans by which the police
should resume duty at Shank Hill , with the
promise of the aid of all respectable people
towaid the suppression of petty ci lines.
WOIIK OK itouuiis.
Several grocers said that ciowils of young
roughs made their trade almost Impossible by
demands for money and goods and attacks
on all exposed articles. If remonstrated
with for malicious Injuiy , the only answer
was an assault by all hands on the dealer.
After four bom's discussion tlm meeting ad
journed without arriving at a mo
dus \lvendl as Is alleged , because
the mayor retused to replace the
police unless the leading Inhabitants agreed
to assume all responsibility coincident ic-
sultlng trom nollco attempts to maintain tlm
peace. This Is now retused , but certainly ,
Shank Hill is so over-run with loutrhs gath
ered fiom all narts of the city that the icsl-
dents must soon term the desired vigilance
committee to help the police siibduo
the young hoodlums who have lived
on rioting for so long that they are
anxious ; to continue this Idle life.

A prominent maglstiato tells mo he tears
that Americans nro forming an Incorrect
Idea of the Hcllast authorities , lie says :
"Tho coroner's juries blame the law ofllcers
of the city for every death resulting from the
i lots , and this Is unfair. For instance , vvo
are blamed for the death of a little glil shot

by nn internal bconndiel who tired
Ills rovoher blindly up a stieet when
no one was looking , and then
ran away , the bullet mot tally wounding
the glil , Wo searched for the rnfllan at once ,
but ho was doubtless hidden by some
thoroughly respectable family nnd ho es
caped. The police are not to blamo. Wo
cannot possibly watch every door and every
loof in the city to prevent cowaidly roughs
of cither party from tiring such random
shots. Decent people come to mo nnd con
fess that their
i.ivrs AUI : NOT SUMS
unless they .shelter such roughs from the
police search , lint until decent people com
bine against the roughs the police
will bo helpless. Wo are now giving
Shank Hill an Idea of what life Is without
police protection. They are tired already
and pretty soon will boieady to take back the
police on a-iy terms. Wo have been called
cowards for not snmmailly suppressng ! dis
order , but vvo houo to make a more lasting
peace by convincing the better classes that
the police dcssivo and must have their sup
port in ictmn for tlio protection afforded.

Lookatlait Wednesday night when the
boys stretched a chain acro-,3 Peter's Hill ,
and then with stones provoked the police to

toseo the police go head over heels when
tripped by the chain. But suppose a dozen
cavalrymen had been thus killed. Suppose
the roughs hid foicud the police to the , Who
then would have been to blame for the ro-

This incident has been , by the way , greatly
exaggerated by many correspondents who
did not eeo It. It was
MMI'IiY A PJIAI71ICAI , JOKE
of doubtful merit , nud the stone-throwing
was only to provoke thu police to charge. It
wns not not teal rioting. In fact no renewal
of tlio rioting U thought possible until after
Sexton's contested election is de
cided. The question of the payment ot the
extra police has become Vie principal Issue in

would be done was n foregone conclusion
when the ram nnd 1U protective little roof
arrived. One can see what the latter moans
by lefeiilm ; to the pictorial edition ot
Josephus. In Roman times ashed protected

This was to overawe the people. The
crowd was soon thousands strong , but the te-
monstranccs of the parish priests against violence
lence were moio Directive , and tlio black frock
and beads more awe-inspiring , than the
crowds and shining steel. Around the
house two relays of police were posted , ono
supporting the other ? which formed the
storming party. The bailiffs and their as
sistants can led scaling ! ladders , Others had
pickaxes and ciowbars.i The ram was placed
in position against the side of a stone
wall. The ladders had been raised
and the tools made ready for work when

not to be such , and B ran howling away.

squad with pickaxes which , on the roof , did
what neither rain nor. crowbars could , and
soon made holes lixjho roof. Thesq holes ,
however , aided thfl hot.water men In getting-

about twenty Insiders rushed out , cairying
rude vessels filled with hot watei , which
they dashed In the faces of the police.
Some were aided by the popu
lace and escaped. The rest of
them , with about thirty defenders , were
captured and handcuffed. Meanwhile the
great popular tumult gave them more scalders.
"Time to throw It harder , " and like oxclama-

who during the slormlug got excited and
exclaiming , "Too bad , I leslgn , " handed bis

ernment , foreseeiu : how regretable the con
sequences of a inpture might bo to itself , en
deavored to set tip n modus Vivendi modify
ing Its hostile attitude. It proposed that
an extraordinary apostolic legate should be

with M. Constan , the Trench cnvov In China ,
as to the best waj of settling the questions
at Issue. The pope , wishing to give Tianco
n new proof of his kindly Intention * , has
consented to the expedient without , how

Iilnn to jump iiom the bridge was dullnltely

of escaping from It nltvo. Donovan
linnlly said ho wns not nfrntd to

The picpaiallons were mndo nt oiico nnd hist
night all wns ready. K\ei > body In the

nil were nnxinus to witness the jump. Donovan
evan did not woik last night He slept In

jump. A pnlr of heavily padded drawers
\\eio put o i. His shoes wcie of blue canvas ,

fiiond piocceded to the bi nice entrance , near
which a wagon wns In waiting. They
jumped on boant mid weio dilven to the
center of the biidge , wliere the distance to

tlian from the point where Itrodie jumped
into the Knst river. The printers ntul press
men employed on the morning newspapers
cathoicd In force at Dover sticet dock to sef
the daring act , nnd a bd.it was lowed out Into

As soon ns the wagon -was halted Donovan
nllchted , leaned quickly over the mil and let
liimselt down to the heavy cable which sup
ports the bridge. Donovan now looked un-
ward ngntn , held his bund stiaight and his
ieet together , and let go.
Soon after being picked up , ho said : "I
went straieht down stiaightnsn plumb line
nnd did not loose my senses nt all. It
seemed n lour tlinn coin ? down as many
minutes as It probably was seconds hut I
didn't tin n noi sweive Iiom n htinlght line.
1 struck the water with n clash and went
light thiougb. I was veil protected with

When I came up to the smtnce I was notex-
bausted , nnd was able to swim n bundled
ynids or so to the boat. They pulled mo out
and took mo to thp pier , whoio 1 was
ni rested. "
Donovan wns arraigned at the bar of the
Tombs police court this afternoon. The cotnt
room was tilled with friends of the jiimpei.
Judge Dully said : "This lellow wanted to
excel Brodio nnd thinks he's going to bo n
hero nnd post ) in some dime museum. " He
then questioned the bridge policeman and a
tram conductor , but neither could say that
Donovan had jumped from the biidge. The
policeman's attention was attracted to n
numbei of vehicles stopping and the drivers
looking down into the wnter. "Then what
Is tlicie , " said .Justice Duffy , "to show-
that this man Is not a fraud' , ' Ho may
have got a few men to get in a boat and low
out under the biidge nnd had his lilcnds
make a great aao and say the man had
jumped Irom the bihl e. " Donovan then
said he did make the jump , and then an afli-
davit was made out accoidingly , based on
Donovnn'ftadmlssion "thnt no jumped Iiom
the bridge Into the Kasr ilvei and thereby
caused ob ° tinotions to ( No vehicles on the

Justice Duffv iciteiated his foiiuer opinion.
