The Church and State Question In Ger an Other Foreign Intelligence. QJtEAT BRITAIN. GLADSTONE CHEERED. London, Aug. 15.

Gladstone wm loudly cneered on bis arrival at the House of Com mons this afternoon by a large crowd a eembled at the entrance. The galleries were crowded. A large number of peers were present EGYPT. The Under Foreign Secretary was pressed to answer the question as to whether or not the government would advise the Khedive of Egypt to disband nls army. He sold The gravity of the circumstances lying behind the question prevented him from being explicit" THE LAND BILL.

Various petitions were presented amid cheers from the Liberal side against the House yielding to the amendments of the Lords Impairing protection afforded tenants by the land bill Gladstone, replying to Parnell, said there would be no preliminary statements with respect to the' land bill, bat that the House would proceed to consider the amendments of the Lords forthwith. After Gladstone's reply to Farnell, Dillwyn (Liberal) said he had aincerly hoped no material concession would be made to an irresponsible body like the House Lords. Daniel Grant (Liberal) said he would feel it his duty, if a large concession was made, to vote against the government. Gladstone replied he was not surprised at these statements, and said it waa unnecessary to repeat the declarations he had already made1 respecting the main principle of the bill Gladstone assented to the amendment of the Lords authorizing the land court, if It saw fit to award to the landlord who had broaght up the tenant right of the holding, compensation out ot the Srice paid when the holding changed hands. also assented to several merely verbal amendments, and then moved to agree to the amendment of the House of Lords giving the landlord access to the lana court when he failed to come to agreement with the tenant.

Parnell objected to this concession, and a long discussion followed. Healy (Home rule) said he foresaw the germs of surrender in Gladstone's tefuaal to make a distinct statement GLADSTONE SATD he did not wish to have the word "compromise" applied to the proceedings of the government The House, he said, had trusted the government so far, and he hoped it would continue to trust. The House, thereupon, agreed to proceed with the consideration of the amendments to the lana bill, and on motion ot Gladstone the first amendment of the Lords, excluding from right of free sale tenancies on which "permanent improvements had been made by the landlord, was disagreed to. ANOTHEB AMKND1TET ADOPTER The last amendment of the House of Lords, striking oat the provision for staying proceedings for debt, was adopted by 100 to 70 after severe remarks on the part of the Parnellites against the government. A committee was then appointed to draw bp reasons for the action, ot the House.

EABL PEXBBOKS'fl PBOTEfT. Lokdox, Aug. 10. The Earl of Pembroke writes to the Ttmei protesting against the cry deing raised that the amendments of Lords to the land bill are an attack on the principle of the bilL He says this is not true in regard to one single amendment ex cept that dealing with the termination of existing leases, and that the amendment only restores tne bill to the shape it entered tile House of Commons. The obstinate injustice of the government toward the landlords, he says, la the sole cause of the deadlock, fbess comment.

The Timet says the temperate Judgment of rational men is unanimous that the differ enoea between the two houses ought to be composed, nor is there the slightest reason to believe that a fair, moderate, and practical arrangement is out of the question. The Jfev says: "If Gladstone resigns he would make the peers our masters. If the vote of the majority of hereditary legislators could at any moment overbear the decision of the country parliamentary government would become a aroe. The same may be said of the dissolution of Parliament ana a general election." The A'rws discredits the idea of a conference between the two houses. Several Irish Conservative peers have urged Lord Salisbury to withdraw his opposition to the land bill, on the ground that the rejection of the bill would be followed by the renewal of the land agitation, which would probably entail upon them greater losses from non payment of rent than they have yetnustained.

Balis bury advised the peers, at the meeting on Friday, to adhere to all their amendments, on the ground that it would only be by doing so that they could force the government to make concessions. THS HDOmi A HP TBI PEKB8. London, Aug. 15.

It waa also resolved that the action of the Lords raises a eonsti tutional question tending directly to compel the country to consider the possibility of maintaining a system which will enable an irresponsible chamber to defeat the will of the nation. Gladstone received 100 messages and let ten from Liberal clnbs and other organiza toons urging the government to remain firm. THS LATEST. London, Aug. 16 The J)aQy Art says It Is understood the Lords will accept further revision of their amendments carried out by the Commons, and that before the end ot the Week the bill will receive the royal assent Other journals speak In a similar tone.

THB 1CUXDEBOP SPOTTED TAXC Washington, Aug. 15. The following report, containing additional details of the killing of Spotted Tail, together with important suggestions proposing a change in local Indian government was received at the In terior department to day "Bosebup Aoenct, Aug.

10. Sir: I stated In my letter of jesterday the murder of Spotted Tall by Crow Dog and complice named Black Crow, both head men of the Brule Bioux, and that it waa the result of a long standing feud. While this is partially true, new evidence has been de veloped which thews different light upon the affair. It seeps to have been the object of a long and wel? matured plan to rid them selves of Spottel Tail. The conspirators were few, but of a desperate character, who had fully maae their minds it the chief would not resign they would kill him, The ringleader was Back Crow, who now makes no secret ot his Utentiona.

rjj iinmoi waa to hold Spotted Tail's position, and it it could not be sotomplished by fair means, they did not scxtple to use the most foul and cowardly means. Upon ascertaining these facta, 1 hat Black. Urow arrested as accessory to the murder. Crow Dog and company, with tfaeir leader gone, the disaf fected element wtl rapidly disperse, and no lonarer exist as am organization. In connection with the Butiect of a head chief over the people, I begfeave to offer the following suggestions wnioa a trust wiu receive your early consideration The position bead chief is a hindrance to civilisation.

I The main object of this person to centralize all power in himself. To do this he must strive to continue tribal relations. To prevent his people scattering! over the reservation for the purpose of tajang up allotments of land, he must gather thim in Tillages, where they can keep alive tieir barbarous customs, dances, eta In slort to retain his hold as chief over the natitn, he must act in opposition to the measures adopted by the government for the ultinate civilization ot the Indiana The minor khiefs are ALBXADT BQUAElLXSO POB THE OITTOX, but I have informal them the appointment and recognition of Bo Important a position must come from ttt office of Indian affaire I have, thereforejto recommend no successor to Spotted xdi be appointed. That his son, young Bpoced Tail, be recognised as chief of hisyown lnmediate band, and that, If at anjetime tkt representative ot the tribe shall be deired at Washington, for conferring upon tn interests of his people, he shall be chosen. With special reference to his intelligence era loyalty to the government Of this, thaagent would be the best judge It the ofuoi ot Indian affairs should direct II will forever pre clude the potability of such an occurrence as that of yesterday.

Being of the opinio that this is necessary, it should be represented at the conference with the honorably Secretary of the interior. I appointed Wx Thunder, chief ot the Loafer Sioux, TO TAXX I tail's place in the delegatfoa He is a man of barely or dinary ability, bo Of unquestioned loyal tv. and waa tne outr available person to be fauna at the tlmei I trust my action in the matter will reoeiw your approval. I have to ada that prompt ction in arresting the murderer of Spotted il baa had the most soothing effect upon tht people at large, all excitement allayed, knd at present one would not imagine we lad Just passed through a crisis during whin some rash Indian or white might easily have turned a peaceful ending into a terrble tragedy. As It is, we have every reasol to be thankful.

Monday orders will be giTtt to 200 freighters to proceed to landing applies, aa I deem It a better plan to kesp as young men busily engaged, thus preventing them taking advantage of the preaes situation and stirring op trouble.
