London, August 25. In the House of Commons to-iay the debate was commenced, on the motion of Mr Gladstone, that the House should disallow the proclamation against the Irish National League, as the necessity for the same has not been proved. Mr Gladstone said he deprecated boycotting, but the League he declared had brought invaluable benefits to the Irish people. Mr Balfour, Chief Secretary for Ireland, m reply, stated that nearly five thousnd persons were now being boycotted, and contended that the League labors to destroy landlords, not to protect tenants. The debate was finally adjourned.
