He declared\nthat there need be no fear that the opposition of the Lords would prove a permanent\nbarrier to Home Rule. The wisest of them\ndo not pretend that they will have auy right\nto disregard the measure when it shall be\nbrought forward by the oountry again. The\nreason why the bill would not be\nintroduced again in this parliament\nand before an election was, because\nThe Lords Would Promptly Rojeot It\nuutil it had been determined by the people\nat a general election.

Irish Nationalists intend first, to\nsettle their own differences, to maintain so\nlong as the Liberals and Radicals are faith\nful to the pledges the alliance whioh Mr\nParnell formed with these two par ies. We\nwill co-operate with them but will not iden\ntify ourselves with them. In ro elusion he\nsaid that the Irish cause depended to-day\nas it had done in the past, largely upon the\nsympathy of the liberty loving people of the\nworld. Thu friends of Ireland had quit\nsending money to that oountry merely\nTo Pay Rent to Their Landlords,\nbut now contributed it instead to the National movement, \"We require for this\nyear,\" he said, \"about $240,000, of which\n$45,000 is needed for the payment of a1-\nlowaucos to members.

Lockroy in the\ndebate on Monday in the Chamber of Dep.\nuties on the condition of the French navy\nmust be somewhat alarming to the French\npeople. M. Lockroy, who is a member of\nthe committee appointed to enquire into the\ncondition of the navy, took a very pessimistic view of matters, in connection both with\nthe navy and with French coast defences.\nSince the conclusion of the war with Germany, France has expended immense sums\nupon her navy, and now according to M.\nLockroy over one quarter of the French fleet\nis composed of old ships, and their artillejy\nis inferior. An irchy, he says, reigns in the\nnaval depaitmeut. Deficits had occurred\nat the Toulon arsenal, and the guilty parties had uot beeu brought to punishment.\nSince 1871 the naval strength of France,\nsaid M. Lockroy, had only increased six per\ncent., and her vessels were inferior in number, speed, and every* hing else to those of\nthe other powers. At the same time the\nwaste and disorder in every part of the\nnaval administration, he declared, was flagrant. The coast defences, according to M.\nLockroy, are if possible in a worse state\nthan the navy. The forts at Roehefort,\nL'Orient, Brest and Cherbourg are, he said,\nin a bad condition. The torpedo boats at\nToulou are notably worthless. Corsica is\nabsolutely undefended, and the Italians if\nthey choose could land 15,000 men on the\nisland in an hour. Havre and Dieppe, said\nM. Lockroy, were at the mercy of any fleet\nthat desired to bombard them, while Rouen\nAnd Boulogne were practically defenceless.\nEngland, he declared, need, have no fear of\nCherbourg, and she could laud forces if she\nchose at Coletin. Such, according to Mr.\nLockroy, was the condition of the\nFrench navy and the French coast defences.\nThe navy was poor and week, many of the\nships old and ill-armed, aud the coast defences worthless. He summed up his observations wiih regard to tie latter by say\nthat in Ihe event i*f w,ii* being uddenly declared against Frauoe, her coast, defences\nwere not prepaied to prevent an enemy\nfrom landing. Descending to particulars\nregarding the navy, he said that the French\nironclads, were defective. The Magenta, recently built, had failed to meet her\ncontract requirements. The Neptune,\nand Marceau were also faulty. Fatal accidents were constantly occurring\non board the ships, owing to their badly\nconstructed engines. Other speakers confirmed to some extent at least, Mr. Look-\nroy's strictures. Cassimiri Perier, the Premier, said that tbe facts related con-\ncerned the governmeut immediately\npreceding the one now in power.\nHe asked the Chamber to adjourn\nthe debate until Thursday to enable the\ngovernment to examine the charges. This\nwas done accordingly. If in the resumed\ndebale the government ie uot able to meet\nMr. Lockroy'h charges, the state of things\nin the French navy and the coast defence\nmust be assumed to be serious. If this\nshould, on inquiry, prove to be the case,\nFrance's neaiest neighbors, limit Britain\nand I'uly, will have no reason to be sorry.\nThe fact., if it be oue, that the Freuch uuvy\nis defective will do more to secure the peace\nof Europe for several years to come than almost any other that could be mentioned.\nOne result of it undoubtedly will be, if Mr.\nLockroy's charges are eveu approximately\ntrue, the disruption of the Franoo-Ruesian\nalliance, at least so far as it threatens\n-Great Britain.

Work is interrupted at some of the mines, and coal\ncannot be hauled till the typples, which the\nrioters destroyed, have been restored.\nThirty-nine of the rioters have been indicted\nby the grand jury on charge of unlav.fu\nassembly and I luce on charges of arson and\nriot.

Lord\nRosebery, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, is dissstisfied with the Khedive's hostility to Great Britain, and will\nraise the question of his deposition for consideration by the cabinet immediately after\nthe recess. The official opinion is that the\nKhedive will not cease intriguing against\nthe British regime, and surrounding himself with officers hostile to the BritiBh, to\nwhom alone he gives his confidence. The\nTimes says, significantly, that the Khedive\nmust be made to understand that Egypt iB\nnot his plaything. The chief danger from\nAbbas' capers is that perhaps he may ultimately succeed in embroiling the British\nwith the French or Russians, thus bringing\non a great war.
