Irish Affairs.

London, Nov. 17.—The Times comments on the reticence of Chamberlain, president of the board of trade, and John Bright, at the opening of the reform club at Birmingham, last night, says: It was well that the condition of Ireland was the subject of ministerial deliberations and it was understood that there were serious differences among members of the cabinet as to what should be done. Rightly or wrongly, in this case we believe rightly, Ministers and Chamberlain were credited with a resolution to resist to the utmost, we say to the last, the adoption of any measures savoring of coercion.
