In the House of Lords Continued.

GREAT BRITAIN.
LONDON, June 1e.,-,The Times in an ar
ticle orklast night's debate in the House
of Lords, says: The speeches of Lord
Stratford de Radcliffe and the Arch
Bishop of Canterbury leaves no doubt as
to the result as'to the bill. While they
dislike it,.and are unable to persuade
themselves it will' have - a benefidal of
,
feet, they advise the House to give its as
sent. The practleil- good sense and pat
riotism of these speeches contrast strong:.
ly with the tone of Mr. Bright's hasty
effusion. ,
The Telegr,aph says: After the first
night's debate on the Irish Church bill
the issue cannot be doubted.
The Star thinks that since the speech
of the Arch Bishop of Canterbury every
thing appears immediately - favorable to
the passage of the bill.
. Mr. Bright has written a letter to a
meeting in Birmingham,in which he
says: ' ll .lf the House of Lords delay the
passage of the Irish Church bill, they
will stimulate the discussion of the sub
ject which might Slumber for years. The
value of a Constitution which gives a
majority in one House in favor of and
in the other House against a given
policy may -be questioned.. Why
is it that when the Crown and the Com
mons are harmony with the nation,
the Lords are in direct opposition? As
Jong as the House of Lords act in, har
mony with the country, they may go on
for a long time. When they thwart its
course, they may meet with unpleas
ant accidents."
Mr. Bright concludes with the hope
that the counsel of a few good and wise
men id the House May Festal!.
The Admiralty Court has ordered the

Lomas, June f,15.—1n the House of
Lords to-night, a vest number of pe
titions against the passage of the Irish
Church bill were presented.
Lord Cairns gave.notice of a question
to ascertain if the Government intended
to endorse the opinions' contained in Mr.-
Bright's letter., to the - Birmingham
meeting.
The debate was then resumed. Lord
Gray said he felt all the circumstances
under which the bill was sent to this
House, but urged the Earl of Harrowby
to reconsider his , motion for postpone
ment, in viewer the consequences which
might result, should it be carried. : „lithe
bill passed,lt must be materially amen
ded. The Hours of Lords now had, but
might not hereafter have, power to
remould the measure. The • result
of the late elections was emphaLicailt
id favor of the bill, and it would be im
prudent for the Lords to oppose it. If
they were' successful - for the moment,
they would soon have it returned, 'per
haps in more. objectionable. forrhs. He
urged the consideration of amendments
in a fair and conciliatory, spirit, and ex
horted the House to accept the measure
with dignity, and not incur the odium of
the'people by collision with the House of
Coninions, which ripiesented the dein.-
erata opinion of the nation.
The Archbishop of 'Dublin complEiined
of the' hard, ungenerous and illiberal
manner in which the Church was treated,
and denounced the bill. lie thought if
it was necessary it might.have been lees
severe. • .
The Bishop of St. David's said the
superior sanctity: -of property was
Hot to be ( considered,. but the
best means ,to apply it in view
of the public )deed. lie disapproved
Of excessive demonstrations of Protest
aritisyn; and laid he' valued its ascend-
ancy,-not . as it was political and religious,
but as it was Moral. He considered the
Irish church - an anomaly. It had failed
to fulfil Its :Waite and promoted
cord. He urged the passage Of the bill to
a second reading and afterwards the in
troduction of amendments. • '
• The Duke of Richmond, though he felt
the injustice of the bill, after great hesi
tation bad resiolved to act in opposition
to his perty. He was sensible of the
inexpediency of popular agitation and
was convinced that the oonstitutional
course worto pass the bill, after ainvud

responsibility of accepting the amend
ments Or withdtaWing the bill on the

\ THE PRI
MEM
could not be heard; the combatants ap
proached 'eaetiother and engaged in ter
ribly close quarters. In a few seconds
they clinched and rolled over side by
aide, and in close conflict. While both
were hugging mother - earth, Allen
placed his hands on the eyes or McCoole,
gouging them desperately, when the cry
of 'afoul" was raised from McCoole's cor
ner. The ropes were cut, and• the , wild
est excitement prevailed for, a few mo
cents, but the crowd soon afteidispersed
towards.the boat. The referee was afraid
to give nis decision. Several pistols were
presented at his head, but he refused to
decide the matter until he reached • St.
Louis.
Allen outfought McCool all the way
through and to all appearances would
have won the fight if it had been allowed
to proceed. McCoole ,was much blown
and badly punished, and was in reality
whipped. The fight lasted about twenty
minutes. The brief accounts, so far as
received, have been put on the street,
and extras are selling with wonderful
vapidity. Great excitement ' prevails
much disappointment is expressed
at the evident inability of McCoole to cope
with Allen. The boat which the party is
on will not be here before eight o'clock.
Nothing further, therefore, can be learned
at present. •
LATEST AI3OIIT THE FIGHT.
ST. Louis, June 15.—The 'steamer
LosisTllle, withl , the prize fighting party,
arrived here about eight o'clock this 1 .
evening. It seems to be the very general
opinion of those present at the tight, and
competent to judge, that there was neither
a foul blow struck nor any gouging done
by Allen. It is also quite a general. belief
that MoCoole's friends determined
from, : the outset that Allen ":should "",
neithr win the fight nor yet the
money. It is freely said that MeCoole's
friends acted-in the most shameful man
ner, displaying knives and pistols with ; .
the view of intimidating Allen, and in
other ways showing that they intended
to have everything their own way. The •
rope is stated to have been cut as early
as the sixth round, but as Allen was
evidentlythe master of the situ
ation, neither he nor his' friends
made a point of it. The 'conduct of the
whole affair was so outrageous that it is
denounced by many of the roughs them
selves, who say that prize fig' hting isstmk.
solost that it. Is a swindle -and a cheat
and a mere struggle for spoils. The see- •
and round ,was not in .failror of McCoole,
as, previously retorted, but. on the con
trary Allen punished his antagonist very
severelV, and from that time it was evi
dent BleCdole was no match for /.4.11en. '
i No deCision has yet been given by the •
referee, 'hut it is stated. it will be an-
nouncetti in the morning papers. Mo-'
Kinney, the referee, was afraid to decide ' 1
in the ring against a foul, far fear of be- •,
int. killed on' the spot. Of this there
seems to be no doubt, and •the reserve- ,
Lion of the decision is believed to be fa
vorable to Allen and to give McNinney
time to leave:4ola- and- escape the yen-
.geanee of McCoole's friends.

The Supreme Court Decides Negroes
• EUgible to Office.
ATLANTA, June 25.—The Supreme ‘
Court of Georgia to-day 'rendered 'a de
cision'that a negro is eligible to,, office, •
Judges Brown and McCoy in favor and
, ,
Judge Warne/diiienting.
Judge McCoy held that the State was*
'without a civil, government before the
Coiayentien that , made the present Con-
stitutiom.that the b:acks and whites par- '
Hawked in getting rip the Convention'
and framing the Constitution, and it was, t
against its spirit to exclude blacks or
'l
'whites from the 'privileges, unless ex- '
pressly prohibited. t
Judge Brown claimed that ,the Four-
teenth Amendment forbids, anybody
being deprived of, its priyileges, and as
the code gives citizens the right to hold
office, and the Constitution' makes him a
citizen and'does net forbid him to hold '
office, it - was not the intention of the law
to break the Fourteenth amendment and
deprivei the negro of hie rieht. , -
Judge Warner held that the negro was '
a new political creature in the body poll- •
tic; that -he must hold office by special
enactment; that the code which defined ,
the powers of citizens was enacted before ,
the negro became a citizen, and therefore 1
At did not apply to him; that he did not ,'
have the right to hold office under ihe
common -law, nor by statute,' since he
was made a citizen, but the Convention
voted down the proposition .to
. make
him eligible to office, and ~until.
he was specially. authorized to hold•of
ilea he was ineligible.
