BRITISH POLITICS.
AN IRISH MEMBER RESIGNS. Received December 27, 8.40 a.m. LONDON, December 26. Owing to Mr Sheehan's expulsion from the Nationalist Party and the stoppage of his Parliamentary salary, he will resign his seat for Mid-Cork and seek re-election.
Mr William O'Brien, who is supporting Mr Sheehan, denounces the despotism of the Irish Party, whose control of the Australian funds is the beginning and the end of the whole trouble. Mr O'Brien described them as politicians shaking the wand of Australian funds over the heads of Irish representatives, to terrify and enslave them.
