Morgan (Liberal) was re-elected unopposed for Eastern Denbigh, and Mr Stanley (Tory), was elected for the West Houghton division of Lancashire. The Standard believes that the Liberals will secure a majority of from 20 to 30. Mr H. H. Champion, in a letter to the Times, says that the Labor Party are adopting the swiftest method of compelling Mr Gladstone's attention to their demands, and that they do not want to punish the Liberals. Anti-Parnellites up the roads in South Clare in order to prevent their opponents attending meetings. Two hundred men, armed with pitchforks and knives, chased Parnell’s supporters for miles, and ultimately the latter were compelled to seek refuge in the police barracks. Mr Tom Curran, a McCarthyite, was elected for Sligo South ; Mr J. A. Rewtoul has been re-elected unopposed for Down East; Mr T. D. Sullivan was elected unopposed for West Donegal. The former members have been returned for Dumfries, Banffshire, Carnarvon, East Limerick, Abingdon, The Tories secured Chippenham (Mr Payder), Lowestqffe (Sheriff Forster). The Liberals gain Forfarshire (Mr Rigby), North-West Devonshire (Mr White). The Anti-Parnellites gain North Kildare (Mr Kennedy). The Ulster men are making great preparations to celebrate the Orange Anniversary to-morrow, and resolutions similar to those carried at Belfast will be submitted. At the elections the Unionists have polled 1,200,121; Home Rulers, 1,311,351; Labor representatives, 32,706. Mr Crombie, a Liberal, has been elected for Kincardineshire.

Mr Harold Renshaw, a Tory, has been elected for Western Renfrewshire. July 12. The latest returns give the Conservatives 199, Unionists 27, Gladstonian Liberals IGB, Nationalists 30, Parnellites 5. Professor Decey, at Chesterfield, taking Victoria as an example of the privileges bostowecj on the self-governing colonies, qon tended that it would be impossible to concede Ireland similar privileges. Sharp faction fights have occurred at Ennis, Armagh, and Meath. Mr W. Redmond and Mr Davitt were both subjected to personal attacks. Mr Balfour, commenting on Mr Gladstone’s Midlothian speeches, argued that it would bo impossible in every difficulty aqd danger which the United Kingdom ipigKt’ encounter, to count upon the material resources of the colonies in the same sense that it could rely on Lancashire, Scotland, or Ireland without Home' Rule. The Daily Chronicle believes that Mr Gladstone is not sure of a majority outside of the Irish members. At Ennis IVfr Redmond formed Ids supporters hjto squares and charged and routed his opponents. At Meath Mr Davitt was forced to draw a revolver to defend himself, and a riot was stopped by the intervention of the police. Mr Gladstone appeals to the national conscience to decide whether Ireland shqU bjO a nation or not. 'phe Whitehall Review thinks it probable that Mr John Burns \yiU bo made an Under* Secretary in a Liberal Government, and that Mr Gladstone will make labor the first question after the autonomy of Ireland. Calcutta, July 11, The Indian press is jubilant at M. M. D, Nr.oroji’s success. ' 11 1
