[By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.
(Reuteb's Telegrams.)
London, August 19,
(Received August 20, at 12.30 p.m.)
Parliament was formally opened to-day by Royal Commission. The Queen's Speech was very brief. It said that the country had confirmed the conclusion arrived at by the last Parliament upon the '-proposed, legislation for Ireland. The question of the finances compelled the summoning of Parliament at this time; but the present being the usual period of recess, on account of the past labours of Parliament this year her Majesty recommended that only financial measures should be considered during the session now
opened.
