Hun. Edward Blake like definit- ely accepted the invitation of Irish friends to take a seat in the Diaper. ial Parliaruent as a representative of an Irish constituency. We presume there will be no dilfiruity in his being elected for nu9. Though wo presume there are enough Irish- men of ability resident in Ireland to represent Irish interests, there is nothing wrong iu his acceptiog,the offer.
