Parnell ' be suspended till Eriday next.' Mr. Parnell was called upon to explain. While the House was storming around him, and he was brought face to face with the prospect of undergoing Parliamentary censure after a manner unprecedented, and thus viewed with horror by all the men around him, he began by a technical objection. He pointed out that another motion had been proposed to the House before that of Sir Stafford Northcote's, and that, therefore, the m-otion of the leader of the House was... out of order. But the Speaker ruled tiiis objection as untenable ; and Mr. Parnell had to proceed with his own defence. He addressed to the House a speech full of the boldest defiance and of stinging suggestion. The House was now beside itself with rage, and there were loud shouts that Mr. Parnell should withdraw, as is the custom when the conduct of a member is under consideration. Mr. Parnell left his seat and calmly pro- ceeded to a place in the Speaker's Gallery, and from this point of vantage looked down on the proceedings in which he himself was the subject of debate.
