AUTOCRATIC POWERS, 7o the Testern Associated Prees. Loxvox, Feb. 5,—~The Standard says the lenath of the debate an second reading of the Coereion bill depends entirely on the dis- crel_.'on of the Speaker. The fullest oppor- tunity, however, will be given for the ex- pression of opinfon. It is not anticipated that the debate will close before Wedunesday, ¢ SPECTATOR.” ~The S.petator, speaking of the action of the Speaker of the House of (_Jmnmons in putting a stop to Irish obstruc~ tion mensures, says: ‘““In taking it he (Brand) saved Parliament itself, and the best system of free government man ever in- vented, from paralysis.” F TAL. The Economist says: “The extraordinary sltuation in which the Government had been viaced and the vague fears of a mofe violent outbreak of the agitation in Ireland undoubt- cdly exerelsed some influence in depreciating home and American szcurities.” Special Cabte. Dynrry, Feb. 5.—The excitement in Ire- laud consequent upon the arrest of Davitt has given place to & quiet determination to await the course of events and make the best preparations for mweting any action which the Government may take under the Coer- cloa act. ‘Throughout the country the great- est indignation prevaifs. Protests from every quarter are reaching the central ofices of the League. The Government shows Mo inclination to interfere with the meetings in public halls in the towns for this purpnse, but nearly all the open-air meetings calied for to-morrow have' been prociaimed to-night. To~day Mr. Brennan received private information that he would be arrested to-night, but on inquiry in ofticial committed suicide. Itis supposed the men are Irish-Americans. They are suspected ofseverul attempted robberies during last night. \ CLARE.

THE KING OF ASHANTEE DESIRES TO BE ¢ COERCED. o Loxwoy, Feb. 5.—The King of - Ashantee has declared war against England. Stores and ummiunition have been ordered to the Cape coast from Madeirn. The War Office held a special council to-day, and it was de- cided to take imme®ate and effective mens- ures to protect the British settiement on the west cozst of Afriea. It seews tho King of Ashantee spent a special - Ambassador to the Cape Coast Castle, demanding the Governor’s surrender of a refugee, a Chief of the Ashantee trive. The Governor declined, and the King at once declarcd hostilities. The Governor applied to the Governor of Sierra Leon for reinforcements, which are being pushea forward. THE EAST.

AX ENGLISH VIEW GF THE TRISH MANIFESTO. Socciat Cable. Loxpoy, Feb. 5.—~The manifesto of the Parnellite members, which was published to- day aud telegravbed all over the world, gives an atterly wisleading account of the fuipension of the Llowe-Rulers from the House, Itis untrue that the Irish members were remtoved for claiming their rights with- intherules and precedents of Parlinment. They were suspended for open, persistent, oiganized defiance of the rules and prece- dents of the touse a2nd the legitimate au- thority of the Speaker. The suspension was fected under the standing order and in pre- cise accordanee with its terws. First Dillon, then Pasnell, then TIE WHOLE BODY OF HOME-RULERS DELIB- DEATELY DEFIED the Speaker and refused to obey orders which were admittedly within his compe- teace. This conspiracy, coneerted originally for the debate on the new order which the Pamellites meant to protract several days, expluded prematurely in eonsequence of tielr exasperdtion at Davitt’s arrest. The resilt was fatal to the whole sthemé of obstruction. Ilence the Arantic efforts to usrepresent the facts. Few ornome of Parnell’s Eaglish champions pre- tend to excuse his last act.

Loxnox, Feb. 5.—The course of the Goy- emuwent this weck has been ina great meas- :m forced upon it by the intelligence it ad received of an arganized preparation o the part of Tiish agitators to :Slml‘.ea simultaneous blow in England and reland. Of this movement the Government lieves Davitt 1o be the ringleader, and so Se]l;imls Was the dangor Jdecmed that, on 5 “‘{Sda\‘ and Triday nights it was thougnt ecessary to keep ull the troops in London Uderanns.

I havethe highest authority for stat- g (hat, even after the passing of the Coercion bill, not more than four nrrests will be made in connection with the Land League. This is the present intention, butany attempt to fan the acitation into the dimen- sions attained in November and December will unquesitenably alter this wise resolu- tion on the part of the authorities. Indeed, it is not improbable that, if matters continune in their present satisfactory condition, the Coercion bill, as far as the Land League is concerned, will be almost a dead lerter. IT 1S NOT §0, HOWEVER, with the Fenians. Their organization will be mercilesly dealt with. The authorities have authentic information as to the number of rifles ilieutly - imported into the country, almost to with- in o hundred, and kunow wherz to lay their hamnds on a large number. This, per- haps, is ofticial Lraggadocio, but when in- formers are wanted in Ireland they are always ~fortiicominz.

In the meantime, the severity of prison disclpline will be relaxed in Davitt’s favor to the extent that he will be exewpt from hard conviét labor and from association with the lower grades of criminals.

Pumapereiis, Feb. 5—The misfortunes of trade have overcome onc of the largest cotton and wonlen manufactures in this city, John Brown’s Sons having suspended this morning. In April last they showed a surplus of $437,000, after taking the mills and the machinery at a fair valuation. Now they owe §700,000 in this city, Nev® York, and . Boston. XNo payments have been made by the firm since the first - week in Junuary, and a strong effort has been made in the mean- time to effect a compromise, but in yain, The fallure is caused by the shrinkage in value of stack and machinery. Worsteds and doe-~ skin feans, plain fabrics, were the prinetpal | gouds manufactured, and when the styles changed a few months since and faney goods cawe in great demand, the firm found itself with a large amount of machinery on hand which was practically worthless, not being adapted to making theclass of goous the markel demanded. A heavy expense was in- curred in purchasing new maehinery and in replacing and equipping the building burned last year. The profits arising irom the goods manufactured have not been as great as were anticlpated, and it has been impossible © to rally - from the heavy load of debt in time to meet ma- turlng obligations, the firm’s means being en- tirely loeked up in mills and machinery. The firm of John Brown’s Suns Is now repre- sented Mr. James Brown, son of the founder of the house. InApril last over $700,000 waos invested in the mills and machinery, but the decling in the prices of real estate has greatiy reduced its value. The finn operated two willk—one at Third and streets, and the other at aund ‘tasher streets. In Ji the mills at Eighth and Tasher s burned. But the losson the property was covered by Insurance. Tho foss of busine: however, was heavy. Last year another d astrous lir occurred, and this ®ss und the expense attending the rebuilding of the'mills at Eighth and Tasher streets and stock them with improved machinery, were the vegin ning of _the firm’s emburrassment, On June 5, 1879, John Brown retired from the firm, his sons Robert A. and James continuing the business. Robert A. DBrown died a few months ago, and his Dbrother is therefore the only member of the firm sur- viving. The wills are considered among the best in the country, and are varionsly esti- mated tv be worth from $500,000 to 700,600, The mills have been elosed since Saturday, Jan. 29, but can be run at n paying rate. Mr. Brown thinks if his creditors will allow him concessions in time he can recover. Abgut 50,000 is held in Naw York, most of which s secured by eollaterals. *"1y the Testern Associated Press, PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Feb. 5.—John Brown’s Sons, dry-goods dealers, have fuiled, Lia- bili ,000.

The follow- ing items give the pith of the statcment and sveak volumes for the rare skill and con- servative judgment displayed in the manage- ment of this solid oldl institution: Surplus over all liabilities, by the Massa- chusetts standard, $2,5585,900, sho about $120 of assets for ench S100 of liabi Increase of surplus during 1830, $709,763.46; aarket value of stoclis and bonds over cost, $1,873,026.17. We will hazard the assertionthat it would be time thrown away for insurers to search for a healthier, more vigorous showing than Is indicated by the above cita- tions from the New England’s statement, ‘The new non-forfeiture law of Massachu- setts, guarantecing pnid-up insurance in case of lapse after the payment of two or more premiums, or a very liberal cash surrender value in cases where the insurable interest lins terminated, is a feature which needsonly to be mentioned to linve' its importance tully apprecinted. The paid-up insurance under this lzw on nearly all elapmns of endowment policies, weare informed, will be a consider- eble in excess of the proportionate parts given in the coutracts of some ot the most fiberal companies. The law is universully reganded as the most Jiberal move yet made by statutory enactment or otherwise in the direction of equity to retiring members. AN OPEN LETTE Drs.
