Mr. Gladstone wm greeted with ebesrs In
tha British Heuse of Commens Thcrsdsy
svsnlng whan be srra te move hit resolu
tion "that a humble address be presented te
the queen representing' Dial tba viceroy of
Ireland baa proclaimed Mm National League
sdsngereua association; that no Information
baa been furnished te Parliament te Justify
the proclamation by vlilue of which her
nisjaaty'a subjects are te be rendered liable
te be punlahed aaeruulnala without Judi
cial Inquiry Inte the nature til their acta, and
tbat thu Heuse, In the a'tMnen or such Infor
mation, pray tbat eeut proclamation aball
net continue In force aa te the aaoelatlon
named and described therein."
Mr. Gladstone said tbat tha Irish viceroy
In declaring that the League bad Incited te
violence muat have acted en Information, but
wbere was tbat Information T Tbe Irish chiefs
bad a right te demand te knew tba grounds
en wblcn the government had acted. If tbe
facta were withheld, the opposition muat
forthwith urge three propeaitloua upon tbe
liiiuae and the government
First That It was a alight, altnnet an out
rage, en the dignity of Pari lament te suppose
that It was te discharge aueh an Important
atatntery duly without knowing tbe grounds,
Hnoendly. Tbat It reduced te utter de
struction and lean absurdity tba main con
tention tbat tba government advanced
during the discussion el tbe crimes act tbat
the safeguard preuilaed bad proved a fares.
He asked t Wbat was tbe value or meaning
of a Parliamentary approval given In Ignor
ance of tbe facta? why net fellow the
course taken by Wellington and Peel In IR20
regarding the Oat helle League, and surpieaa
Thirdly. What could tbe lleusa tblnk of.

Mr. (lied atone aald be hail alwaya con cen con
eoutended tbat tha government were leglala
llng against combinations apart from crime,
and new was the time for the government tJ
ahew tbat ba and bis friends were wrong.
But the government shrank from tba teat
and declined tbe challenge. They bad sub.
etltuted an arbitrary will for regular legal
action. Tbla principle wasasBeat dangerous
and dl.graceiul one In any country, and
especially In Ireland. Law in Ireland was
still en trlaU A great tnlslertuna was tbat

were net In sympathy wllb tbe leellngs of
tbe people.
war ex TUB IHlHir.
The proclamation of tbe League, Mr. Glad
atone declared, waa a near approach te a
declaration of war en the Irtah people. Tba
people of Ireland generally sympathised
Willi tbe League, becauaed tbey be'ltved tbat
It bad been their salvation. Nobody did
anything for tbe tenants until tbe League
waa founded. The government waa pressing
Ireland very bard, and It waa evident that
tbey Intended te work and act by summary
jurisdiction.
Tba governments action absolutely ex.
oluded the Hhiish Irera anything except an
a'aurd and perluuutery oimratieu 111 connec
tion wltb the great duty develviug upon It
nnder tbe statute TbHr cegnlrauce of tbla
proclamation waa ivdeced te a mere farce.
There would be no Jury, Judge, errealdent
magistrate, and no Parliament te control Ire
land; there would be nothing but tbe abso
lute, unmitigated, arbitrary act of tee Irish
executive, which waa ceeneearlly partlaan.
He beprd that the Irish would continue te
bear tha prewure. Tney would net have
te suder long. It waa certain tbat tbey
would net etiay the law tbreugi fear, but
from a strei.ir, vivid, buoyant bepe which
even at the Let electieu waa net damaged,
and which new waa brighter and livelier.
Tbe Irish letlrved that tha government's
policy bad ret the sanction el tbe Brltiab ra
tion. Tbe government's louudatlec wassllp
plng from under them, and their action In
releieuce te tbe proclamation of tbe League
showed that tbelr strength waa fad in,-. lie
land arelng this, truattd the Kugllah nation 10

vinced tbat her txpectatlene would net be
disappointed.

BALKOUH'B REPLY.
Mr. llalfnur aald tbat Mr. Gladstone would
have been wiser bad be rented Ills argument
en tb e allegation tbst tbe Ueute waa ignorant
of tbe ground for tbe proclamation rather
tbau en a defense of the League. The gev.
ernment'a dlllleulty was nit tbe finding of
evidence te Justify tbe proclamation, but tbe
eelvctlng el It trein tba enormous masanf
evidence tbey possessed. There waa aufU
dent loundailen te Justify tbe procUmatlen
In tha columns el the local newspapers,
without going Inte tbe government's confi
dential reports.
Mr. Balleur argued that when Mr. Glad
atone proclaimed the Land League be did ae
when Mr. Parnell was Imprisoned and wben
Parliament was net sitting, and tbat he af
forded no Information te any one concerned.
Ha quoted at length from documents te enew
tbat tba League waa guilty of boyeottlng,
oearclog and inatlgattng inlractloue of tba
taw.
Sir William Verrnn Haroeurt asked tha
apsaker whether tbe documents from which
ha quoted would be submitted te tbe Heuse,
Mr. IUIfeur refused te submit tba docu
ments, and proceeding, narrated ether in
stances of tbe Lsagne's unlawful notion.

and shook bands warmly, declaring tbat ha
waa In excellent health. His face waa ani
mated and his whole bearing told better than

political prospects,
The reporter aald : " I am afraid, Mr. Glad
stone, tbat you won't beat tbe government
te-night en your motion for an appeal te the
queen."
"Ne," replied Mr. Gladstone, we cannot
expect te de tbat new, but the fact tbat a year
age tbe government majority waa 110, while
aw tba meat aangulue government sup
porters only anticipate a majority of 60 In

and remit te blm tbe prenta until tbe amount
advanced by Hecbrlst bad been psld, after
which Denley was te have a nuc-balf interest
In tbe business. A lew weeks after tbe store
was opened, Denley wrote te Hecbrlst thst
mere money was needed. Hecbrlst became
ausploleus, and began an Investigation as te
the buslneas carried en by Denley. Before

aklpped away from Newark. Constable
G Inter, who waa given the case, traced the
fugitive through several towns In New Jer

Dr. Walter F. Atlee, of 210 Seuth Thir
teenth street, has In his possesien an inter
esting letter written from Philadelphia te
Mrs. Judge Atlee at Lancaster, Pa., referring
te tbe ratification of the constitution in 1788.
Mrs. Judge Atlee wss the great-great-grand-mnther
of Dr. Atlee. Tbe letter le dated
July 13, 1788, and among ether things con
tains the follewing:
"Mr. Atlee was tbere In time te till bis
place In tbe grand precession; for grand It
was, and the most pleasing tbat my eye ever
beheld. My cousin took much eare of me,
that I might have a full view of all. We were
fixed directly opposite te Mr. Bingham's,
where tbere waa every compliment and at
tention paid te Mrs Bingham. We had an
opportunity In tbe first place of eeelng Mrs.
Bingbam present tbe colors te the troops
with ber own hand. Tbere were many dis
tinguishing compliments paid ber, all of
which sbe received and returned with the
greatest elegance and politeness. I dare
say tbere were fifty ladles In tbe second
story of her house all dressed In white,
no small addition te tbe magnificence of
that beautiful building. Before I take
leave of Mrs. Bingbam and ber beuse, 1
muat mention particularly Mercury, belong-
ma: levne punier, isiiins: uy one ei nis
pigeons wiin a new lanoeea te na ran. it
missed her and alighted en tha next corner
of Mr. Powell's house. After the precession
bsd all paaaed there we went home and ate a
bit of cold dinner, aa indeed I believe that
very few families at a het one that day.
Tbere was a carnage prepared te take ua te
Bush Hill. In esseins- we had another view
or tbe precession. Everything waa con
ducted wltb tbe greatest order and solemnity,
far beyond my most Anguine Ideas. As It
wss se early In tbe afternoon and I had ex
pressed a desire of seeing the curious Im
provements st Gray's Ferry, tbe remainder
of tbe day was spent tbere, which con
sisted of beauties accordingly as far be
yond my expectations as wbat I had seen be
fore "
Uopklnsen, In bla second volume of es
says, baa a detailed description of thla cele
bration, which dwells at some length en the
grandeur of the precession mentioned In the
letter.

A. Frame Dwelling Heuse Near BlaklstewD
Destroyed by Firs.
Tbe frame dwelling house of Abraham
Frankfort, near Hlnkletewn, was totally de
stroyed by fire en Thursday afternoon be
tween 2 and 3 o'clock. There was no one at
borne wben tbe fire broke out. Mrs.
Frankfort left home early in the morning
for Womeladert, and ber husband was haul
lag coal te New Helland, except when be
went te the house at neon te eat a cold meat
The fire was discovered by some of tbe
neighbors, and tbey male efforts te extin
guish the flames, but the supply of water
gave out and nothing oeuld be done te eave
tbe building. All the furniture was de
stroyed except some few articles en tbe
lower fleer. Tbe fire was first Hen In one of
the upper rooms, and as there waa no fire in
the house from early morning the suppesi
tien Is that tbe fire was the work of an incen
diary. There were about $70 In money In
tbe beuse, but It Is net known whether tbla
waa burnt or stolen. The theory of tbe
neighbors la that tbe house waa robbed and
tben fired. Tbe lese Is about (2,000 and tbe
Insurance $1,600 In the Penn Township Mu
tual Insurance company.
A Small Flre.
About 0:30 tbla a. m., fire and smoke wss
discovered laaulrg from the back building
of tbe frame house Ne. 4C.t North Queen
street, oecupled by Philip Glints, and owned
by estate of Christian .sober, deceased. Mrs.
Qlletz, wbe was In bed st the time, stated
she had no lire yet made, but it caught In
the fire place In whleh was s let or old rage
and a oeal oil can. Tbe fire doers were sl sl
mest burned off, snd ether portions of tbe
kitchen and part et tbe root Ne alarm was
sounded,as the neighbors ssw the flames snd
with considerable difficulty extinguished
them. Tbe less Is about $20 or $25, but no
insurance.

la a shame and a disgrace te a elty of our also
te sutler the Inoenventenoe and dangers of
having no lights en dark sod stormy nlgbta
similar te that of Tuesday nlgbt last
II tbe present company lighting our streets
can net furnish ua with tbe proper light at all
times (I simply give tbe expressions of my
self and many ethers), let the city procure a
system of lighting tbst can be relied en, net
only en moonlight nights, but also en dark
and gloomy nlgbta, Aa you have repeatedly
stated In your columns, our pavements are
bad. Tbe effects of the same are mera forcibly
felt wben pedestrians step into peels of water
which are net perceptible en account of tbe
extreme darkness, tbe oendltlon in which
our city la tee often In.
The present company lighting tbe streets
(greed, or at leaat the Idea waa ad vaneed, tbat
if they procured the lease ler lighting tbe
city tbls year, they would suspend their
lights across tbe streets at such points as des
ignated by the proper authorities ; and en
the strength of this, or expectation of having
thla premise fulfilled, a number of votes were
eeeured, which they will probably net obtain
next year en this account
Thla premise they have net as yet attempted
te fulfill and If net aoen done. It will be un
necessary, as tbe leavee en the trees, which
new obstruct tbe light, will have fallen.
Let us have light, net by tbe almanac, an
some smaller towns are governed by, but
every nlgbt, all nlgbt and plenty of It ;
whether It be gas, electric light or oil, and
net have a repetition of wbat we bad en the
nights wben light waa mostly needed. It la
a disgrace te a city of 30,000 Inhabitants.

Eni. Istki.i.ieknceb, Tbls subject may
seem probably a "cbesnut," but these lour
citizens wbe reside In tbe neighborhood of
Clay and Frederick streets feel that tbey 'are
a much neglected and forgotten aet of people.
Patiently bave they read In our dally
papers and listened te the members el
councils of tbe Gth and 9th wards giving rea
sons why tbls sewer Is net ballt until their
patience is about exhausted, and believe it la
time their representative aheuld be called te
an account
Toey certainly have geed reasons for se
doing, for the condition of the eellars, yards
and houses In this vicinity are simply dis
graceful te our city, and forbearance baa
eeaaed te be a virtue.
The email aewer in Cherry alley waa filled

But, why tbla delay in building tbla
much talked and much needed aewer T The
city baa decided te remove tbe pumping
station, tbe site bss been selected above tbe
drainage of tbe city and why de net tbe com
mittee en drainage and sewers have plans
and apeolfieatlone made and award the con
tract te bave tbla sewer built before the in
clement weather oemee 1 Thla could be dena
Build the main aewer, but allow no connec
tions, exespt for surface water, till the pump
ing station is reedy and In use, This would
afford roller te the great volume of water
which gathers at that point,
On account of thla aewer net being built or
started, beusea In this vicinity are empty and
cannot be aeld. But we de net wonder, for
every heavy rain these people are overflowed
with refuse and water from a large portion
