HOME RULE BILL.
In the House of Commons, on July I 22nd, the Premier submitted the new financial clauses with respect to the Home Rule Bill. These fix the contribution by the Irish Legislature at £2,300,000. Mr J. Chamberlain, in discussing the clauses asserted that Ireland was now asked to pay £550,000 less than at. present, and £1,800,000 less than she ought to pay. It is expected that the House of Jjords will, by ten to one, reject the HTraie Rule Bill. The Duke of Devonshire will move the rejection of the Home Rule Bill in the House of .Lords. During the discussion in the House of Commons on the financial clauses, Mr Chamberlain said that owing to Irish patriotism being simply a plant which required watering with British gold, Mr Gladstone had fixed Ireland's contribution under her taxable capacity.
