IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.
(Per Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) [Pee Press Association.] (Received 1 a.m., Feb. 25th.) London, Feb. 24. In the House of Commons to-day the Home Secretary, in moving the introduction of the Suspensory Bill, admitted that it was the first step towards the disestablishment and disendowment of the Church of Wales. Sir John Gorst moved an amendment, that it was inexpedient and unjust to interfere with the Welsh dioceses while the principle had not been approved by Parliament.
After a brilliant speech by Lord Randolph Ob archill, Mr Gladstone made an eloquent reply, and the amendment was negatived by 301 to 245. Twenty Liberal Unionists abstained from voting, and twenty voted with the Government.
