The Home Rule question wan discussed at some length, and finally all those present pledged themselves to vote against the second reading of the Bill. The defeat of the Government, and consequent dissolution, is regarded as certain.

[PRE&S ASSOCIATION.] London, May 31. The evasive answers given by Mr Gladstone mi Friday, are tending to produce a revulsion of feeling, and many of those who had intended to abstain from voting on thu second reading of the Irish Land Purchase Bill will now be present and vote against the measure June 1. Mr Bright will vote against the Irish Land Pui chase Bill. The Daily Nows considers that should the voting on the Bill be adverse to the Government, there is imminent peril of an immediate appeal to the country.

He Decides to Oppose the Second Reading. London*, June 1. The debate on the Home Rule question continued in the House of Commons today. Mr Chamberlain said he opposed the second reading of the Bill because its pussing 1 would involve the approval of the general policy of the Government, as outlined in May.
