LOUIS, '1.4 IM:3 GTON, P. h emetic.) 'a KEY WEST, The Typographical Union and the.Asso. dated Press. The N. Y. Tu nes of Monday has an arti cle on the position assumed by the Nation al Typographical Union, which demands that all newspapers be unconditicinally admitted to the Press Association. The Times says: The Associated Press is a voluntary aisociatton of several journals, for the purpose of obtaining news by telegraph, for common use and at the common expense, the object being to avoid duplicating, at an enor mous expense, news which all must have. The Association never assumed to ex clude any responsible vapeet from sharing its advantages; but in view of the im mense labor and expense incurred in building , it up, it has been thought just and proper to demand a price for such a privilege, corresponding to its value and its cost to the members of the Associa tion. No journal strong enough to go alone objects to the demand. It is only those , who desire ! to reap the prollt - of publishing a newspaper without incurring the expense of it by' that ob- ject. The Typographical Union objects to thus increasing the priceof publisning a newspaper, because it keeps printers out of work. This 'is quite in iteeping with the general policy of the Union, to secure for -- printers as much money _ for as jittle work as possible; but the hostility of a com bination, which assumes to fix the prices for which printers may work, and to regulate their hours, and degrade and brand all who will not obey their dicta tion, and which seeks legislative interfer ence to sustain their abburl assumption of the monopoly and tyranny of the As sociated Press, is simply ridiculous. They might just as well demand every person who desires to start a now newspaper man shall have the right to use the correspondence, the editorial force,' the law, mar ket and general reports, and itener ally whatever In an od establish journal he might find useful in his enteedr prise. This would greatly facilitate the starting of fresh-newspapers and so In creaiae• the demand for printers, and would be quite as just as the Union's de mand concerning the .

The Times this Morning, in a leader on the prospects of the Irish Church bill in the House of Lords, says: "The week opens with all the elements of a dramatic situation. The action Is great. the rue dre is great,• and the end is certain. We are' conviced that the bill will pass to its second reading. Every day it becomes clearer that England, after an agitation of eighty - 30MB, will volun tarily Made Injustice so long perpet uated. No Orange dernenstration can affect the sincoeskot the measure._Tide scandal of-the--Irish Church establish ment is at the root of the alienation of Ireland. Its destruction - is an act df peace and unity between jealous aim disubited races. • Ther Tinto reviews the opinions of the - leading men of the opposition and concludes; "By such arguments justice may be as often delayed, but not when the nation is awake to a sense of its de nial, We feel assured that justice , will not be delayed. By yielding now, the reputation and authority of the House of Lords will be established firmer than ever." • In the House of Peers, to night, in an ticipation of the debate ,on the Irish Church bill, there was a full attendance. all the seats on tho.tloor being occupied. At the opening of the 'MUTT, the gal leries and lobbies were crowded with spectator's, and in the streets in the vicin ity of the House of Parliament a great throng otpeople was collected. In the House many.petitions were pre sented against the bill. Earl Granville then moved the bill pass to its second reading. He declared he had always thought the Irish Church was au 'smear alye and faded to fulfil the position for which it was intended; that it was a great injustice' and should be legislated on in a reareinable,lwise and moderate way. He traced the history of the suspensory bill of last year, and the resignation of • theD'lsraell Ministry showed their ac ceptence of the decision of the country in favor of disestablish went and disendow went. After explaining the provisioue of thei hUI under consideration, Lord Granville continued: Ihe Government did not desire to sever the spiritual con nection between the Irish and English Churches. He would leave the explana tion of the endowments to his colleagues. He declared there wall nothing in the act of union to prevent the passage of the bill. He did not undervalue the act, but maintained that it was not unalterable, nor should it be allowed to stand in the way of a measure deemed necessary to the major ity of the , people 'and constituencies in Ireland: . The bill had no effect on the Royal supremacy. After referring to the threatened opposition and comment ing on the bigotry of past times, he ate Pealedle the bench and to the Bishops to . weigh well their course. Noth log was more suicidal than to • point to the principle on which the Irish Church stands as that on which the Eng' limb Church is to stand, for this step was not the preclude to disestablishment. The dignity of the House, atter due pro test, should allow the bill endorsed by the voice of the country to pass. The House of Peers has. great power for. good; but there is one thing it does not possess. It has no more power than the e of mmons. It has not power s to thwa rt the national will. It was said that -the method of conduct ing thebill in the Commons was offers, stye, and the House of Lords had been advised to be conciliatory in their pres ent declaration. He well knew the value of conciliation, but there was no need for it here. For he would assure th that though the Liberal party a d here d d strong lto the polic of the they would g rate fully welcome and carefully consider • any alteration of detail pro. poied* be their Lordships.

The sense of the country h d not been tested ()tithepoint, point, and he be ieved the country was now earnestly looking to and expecting the House of Lords to reject the bill. Lord Clarendon said he did not recipro cate the feeling of the Earl of Harrewby $s as to the result of the bill. Simil fere bodings were expressed in regar to the reform and free trade xneastires." e be lieved the sentiment of the count had been fully Amsted on the tAipid. t had been discussed for the past year and a half, and Was so thoroughly exhausted and understood that he was unable to -say anything,new on it.

He never felt it stronger than when he saw crowds' kneelipg outside a hovel with a handsome! parish church those by unat tended. ,fflie 'believed that Ireland was the.question of the hour. Her condition had' burdened the Government. After the upiOrsal assent of the country, and the inwessibility that such a state of things i t ouid continue, imposed on Mr. Gladst e the duty of settling the. Irish Chum grievancee. The Duke of Rutland opposed the bill, bee:A.Bodt overthrew the rights of prop ertyorAlated tho religion of a majority' of the people of the United Kingdom. and destroyed the union of church and state. He denied that the Irish Church 'was a badge of corkquest, and declared his conviction that the voluntary system would never answer. Lord Stratford de Radcliffe objected to many details; of the bill. but warned the Ilotise not Ito sacrifice the' substance for 'the shadow,. He believed the passage of the Pill as it now stood would result in ir reparable injury to the Church and would not relieve, the condition of Ireland. The relative positions of the 'two Houses 1 of Parliament, however, demanded the second reading of the bill, after which 'the upper House could go to work and emend its objectionable features. - Lord Rornilly regarded the idea that this bill would prove the • destruction-of Protestantisin wile myth. It would only deprive the; rown of the nomination of some Bishops. In the House of (Ammons, to-night, W. Otway, Secretary for the.
