London, December 3. — Mr Parnell dominates at the meeting of Irish members, and his bold and brilliant tactics for the purpose of securing delay, and enabling the Irish people to influence his party, and extort admiration from some of his Irish opponents. Excited meetings have been held in Cork, at which cries were raised of 11 Gladstone is a slippery devil," and both Gladstone and Money were hissed. The partisans of Parnell shouted, "To Hell with Dillon, O'Brien, and Davitt." The Dublin National League is almost unanimous in favor of Parnell. A priest at one of the meetings seconded a vote of confidence in Parnell.
At a meeting of Irish members last night, Colonel Nolan's motion to adjourn for a fortnight and resume at Dublin was rejected by 44 to 29.
WRANGLING AMONGST IRISH PARTY.
At last night's meeting of tho Irish party there was incessant and bitter wrangling among those present. Mr Parnell professes to be more than satisfied with the result of the meeting. At a meeting to be held to-day, Mr J. J. Clancy, member for Dublin North, will move "That Parnell temporarily resign the leadership." The Standard says that 53 members of the party are in favor of retirement, while 33 are opposed to such a step. Cuioago, November 2. — Harrington, Secretary of the National Irish League, is at Chicago organising a strong support for Parnell.
Many of the Irishmen threaten they will never subscribe again unless Parnell is retained in command.
