ENGLISH PARLIAMENTARY. [REUTERS TELEGRAMS.] London, February 21.
In the House of Commons to-day a motion was introduced by Mr Labouchere in favor of the seat to which Mr Bradlaugh was elected tor Northampton being declared vacant. A debate ensued, and the motion was finally rejected. Shortly afterwards Mr Bradlaugh entered the House, and walked to the table, and, in the absence of the Clerk, swore the customary oath. The Speaker at once ordered him to withdraw, and Mr Bradlaugh obeyed, but subsequently returned and claimed his right to take his seat. Lord Randolph Churchill thereupon moved that a new writ should be issued for Northampton. The debate on the motion was, however, adjourned till to-morrow.
