Mr. Parnell, in the House of Commons on the evening of the 7th inst., moved an amend- ment to the address in reply to the Queen's speech. The amendment is as follows :-- * The relations between the owners and oc- cupiers of the land in Ireland have not been seriously disturbed in the cases of those who granted tenants such. abatements as Were de- mauded by the prices of agricultural and pastoral produce. The remedy for the crisis in Irish ugrarian affairs will be found, netin the increased stringency of criminal procedure or in the pursuit of such nove', doubtful and unconstitutional mneasures as those recently taken by her majesty’s government, but in such reform of law and system and government as will satisfy the needs and secure the confidence of the Irish people.” Mr. Parnell maintained that if the bill for the stopping of evictions, which he introdueed last session, had been passed, the condition ot Ireland would have been greatly improved. the operation of the measure would have eifectually prevented the present disturbed relations between landlords and tenants in Ireland. The blame for the present serions position of Lrish«domestic affairs rested with the government. The government, despite this, seemed about to renew the mistake of attempting coercion in Ireland. The speaker solemnly warned the government if they again tried coercion they would again fail as they always had failed when trying that policy. Coercion would never bring about a better state of affairs in Ireland, or assist in establishing peaceiul relations between two countries. if the government’s proposed alteration of the criminal procedure act meant an attack on the rights of Ir.shmen, the imme- diate result would be that Sir Michael Hicks- Beach, Chief Secretary for Ireland, and the Marquis of Londonderry, Viceroy, would find themselves rapidiy descending an inclined plane, and weuld soon come asking parlia- ment for more coercion. Sir Michael wished to attack the authors of the Plan of Cam- paign. He thought to crush the plan by muzzling his opponents and putting them into jail, All past experience had shown that the work of suppression would only _ be- gin when such things were done, for secret societies would spring up and agrarian and political crimes would revive in the worst forms. The government had already been guilty of unprecedented action in the manner they had conducted the prosecution of John Dillon, They had been equally arbitrary in the method empleyed te suppress the Sligo meetings andin the adoption of the method of striking off juries in such a way as to ex- clude Catholics. The speaker asked if the government could expect a nation, three- fourths of whose population were Catholics, would be content to have no representation of their faith in the jury trials of their contry. Referring tothe Glenbigh evictions, Parnell decided that the National League never tter- fered until the work of eviction was in ful! swing. As one who had no responsibility in bringing forward the plan of campaign, he could speak freeiy uponit. Many tenants who now had a roof their heads would have been cass out upon the bare hilis but fo: the plan. The reduction inthe number of evictious the ‘last quarter was mainly due to the plan, The government had wailed two months before declaring the plan illegal. Was it illegal? That remained to be seen. In the meanwhile he attached no importance tu the assertion of illegality. The government talked of the robbery of the landlords, forget- ting almost every title to Irish land was founded upon wavlesale robbery and confis- cation. The bulk of the improvements made hy tenants had been seized by landlords, who had long been robbing tenants of the produce of their labor, and embezzling their rights. (Ivish cheers.) Parnell went on to condemn cvercion as an incitement to conspiracy. Even now, at the eleventh hour, if the gov- ernment refrained from a policy of exaspera- tion, and stopped the infliction of injustice is by legal enactments and a system of repress- iou which had done more to demoralize the Irish tenants than all Fenian agitators from New York te San Francisco; if they would give Ireland power to do for herself, what England seemed to have neither the wish nor the power to do, Ireland would show by laws, tranquility and prosperity how unfairly she has been treated in the past and how unjust was the assertion that the Irish were not law- abiding people.
