Tho Australian Press Agency learns that Mr. Lloyd George is agreeably surprised at the conciliiory nature of one of Archbishop Manuix's speeches, in which ho urged tho Government to make Ireland a friendly ally by conceding the right of self-government. Archbishop Mannix "has not yet decided when he will visit Rome, and has ■not made arrangements for his return to Australia. Father Vaughan, his secretary, spent several weeks in Ireland.— Aus.-N:Z.
