THE EAST LOTHIAN ELECTION. Tun return of Lord Ewno in East Lothian can bear only one signification. It shows that even in Liberal and enlightened Scotland there are county oonstituencies which need the protection of the ballot to enable them to discharge their political duties and enjoy their political rights without interference, and secure from the moral intimidation of the owners of the soil. No one who has the slightest acquaintance with Haddingtonshire can pretend to doubt that the majority of the electors would have preferred to send to Parliament a representative of serious and sincere convictions, and whose public charac ter and conduct would command the respect and the confidence of the House and the country, rather than a supercilious egotist wrapped up in a self-conceit which would be amusing enough on any other scene than that of a national legislative assembly. Men who pretend to explain the result of this contest by the " personal popularity " of the successful candidate, confound the contemptuous indulgence which -,ornctiines accompanies coxcombry with the regard and respect which are the recompense of consistency and sincerity in the career of a public man. Such regard and such respect were justly due to Lord Ex.cno's rival candidate, Lord WILL►Arr HAY. He would not only have repre sented ably and faithfully the constituents of East Lothian on local questions, but would have contributed a thoughtful intelligence and a ripe experience in the public service to the die cussion of imperial—and more particularly of Indian—politics. But the territorial influence was LOO strong for him; and it was the influence of his own house, and of his own paternal home that cast him out. There is, perhaps, a certain dramatic grandeur in the Roman austerity which condemns a son in order that a father's principles may triumph. But it has also a more vulgar and prosaic aspect where an Rum° is the hero of the episode. No doubt there has been no such pres sure of territorial influence in East Lothian as we have seen daily exerted of late in English counties. Scottish farmers are not tenants at will. But there is a subtler and more secret form of intimidation which a good landlord worthy of all personal esteem may exercise without opening his lips or moving a finger, when his feelings and opinions are known to be engaged on one side, and that not the side of the popular candidate. One feet is enough to explain Lord ELeno's victory. He never addressed a single public meeting of his constituents before the nomination day. But he canvassed the electors by a house to house visitation, He flattered himself that his noble presence, his good looks, and his winning manners secured him an irresistible ascendancy. Many of the electors who voted for him - • -.•t'.;% THE • t - could tell another tale. however, as we %aro got Lord Et MO book wo must try to makeShohselb of him and there is somo comfort in knowing that hia wings are clipped, and that he may flo, what n mains of them, and crow his oyes out of his hood without disturbing anybody's peace. His " here- „ ” ditary i nstincts " will hardly succeed in discover ing • new Cave, and if he has not the deoeney to take his seat on the Tory side of the House, he mill be alone in hie glory and his self-importance in the midst of Mr. @Latino/nee liberal majority. If indeed he will be content to amuse himself with his own wit during the dinner hour, and to dedi cate big graver moments to the diminution of small arms, he will be tolerably ornamental, possibly men useful, and certainly harmless, and be may be permitted to mistake political obscurity and insignificance for personal popularity and inde pendence. ELECTION BIOTA Tun election of Piaeteztrr for the United States has just pawed over without, so far ae we know, a single act of violence; while the elec tions for the Parliament of England have been eignalia.ed by atrocities whioh stamp them with disgrace. Those who still regard American institutions with pious dread, and who profess to consider the pnblio manners and customs of the Republic to be immeasureably inferior to our own, may find food for useful ro flc in the contrast suggested by the ction intelligence this morning. That a violent death should make a man a martyr, no wetter how incurred ; and that a ringleader in a rtiret Mewl should bo followed to his grave by a procession of priests and magistrates,could,we may bore, only happen in one oountry in the world.. But Ireland has not enjoyed any monopoly of riot ing during the last fortnight. At Newport and the towns of Monmouthshire houses have been guttc , l and streets have been the pitched battle fields of the military awl the people. In South Staffordshire a violent and tumultuous mob was only dispersed by a troop of dragoons galloping an:ong them and cutting right and left with their swords. In Leicestershire, and at Barnsley, in Yorkshire, the police and the mob have boon fighting as desperately as if they were soldiers in opposing armies. Such is the news to-day ! Such has been the kind of news we have been reading for many days. There is something in expressibly hardening and lowering in the com mon occurrence of these brawls. Our boasted auperiority over the other countries of Europe is dragged in the dirt ; and Mr. DISRAELI'S " No " Popery" cry is proved to be es brutalising and dangerous as when shouted by Lord thongs Goa Lore long years ago. _.__ _ ~_ IVASON r. WALTER. Tus written judgment delivered yesterday by the Loup CHIEF JtrErme of ENGLAND gives formal legal authority to a practice which has been long estab lished by custom. That Parliamentary debates should be fully reported and freely commented on is essential to the proper working of Constitu tional Government. So thoroughly is this known that it has never been thought necessary to affirm the right by statute ; and the privileged character of such reports and comments has not until yesterday been laid down by authority simply because it hail not been seriously impugned. The standing orders of the house prohibiting reports of its proceedings are still maintained; but as Sir ALEXANDER COCKBURN remarked yesterday, " the members of both " Houses would deplore as a national misfortune " the withholding of their debates from the " country at large." He was careful, however, to add that a garbled report, or a report of de tached proceedings, or even of a single speech published with the intent of injuring individuals, would be still held unlawful. The whole judgment affirms, therefore, that which ordinary men have been taking for granted all their lives. Despite technicalities and traditions of the old time, when notes of the proceedings in Parliament were taken by stealth, and when Dr. JouNeon reproduced whole debates in which each speaker spoke the English of the Rambler, the common-sense side of the question is the constitutional and legal one. A free par- liatnent is not to be made the instrument of injury to any private citizen ; but its acts and words are to be submitted to the judgment of the nation. Beyond the mental gratification to be derived from the perusal of Sir Aumaenint Cocinuttres lucid judgment, and the knowledge that what is, is technically, as well as morally, right, ther3 is no very absorbing public interest in the question just settled through the action of Mr. WAsoN. That which few reamenable people doubted has been placed beyond the possibility of dispute; and a formal precedent is established for what has been carried on with tolerable success without it. Ik. GLADSTONE ON THE MAYNOOTiI GIANT 4!D REOJU i DOXUM. The Rev. W. W. Jubb, an independent minister of Oldbury, near Birmingham, wrote a letter to Mr. Glad stone, in which he said :—" There are certain voters in this town who are under the impression that you do not intend to take away the Maynooth Grant and the Rogium Donum at the same time that you disestablish the Irish church. This has led them to support the tory candidate, though they are liberal in principle on every other subject." Mr. Gladstone's reply was as follows :—" Not only my own declarations upon every occasion, but the resolution unanimously passed by the Rouse of Commons, binds me in honour, as I am bound in purpose and conviction, to propose that the Beginm Donn= and Maynooth Grant should be wound up, and should cease with the church establishment. Can words go further ? With best com pliments, yours, " W. E. GrAneroarn. Liverpool, November 17, 1888." Mr. Disraeli has consented to lay the founda tion dose of the new church of flt.

The Aril, lima reviews the state of political parties, and snticipatos the final result of the elections. Mr. Gladstone, it says, is absolutely secure of a minority of 77 votes in the new Howe of Commons. lie may have much more—he cannot have a unit lees. If, therefore, government by a minority is not to be henceforth the rule in England, and if the principle be not exploded which re quires that the minibters of the crown shall enjoy the con fidence of the louse of Commons, Mr. Gladdone's majority, placing it at the very lowest figure to which the most hostile criticism can reduce it, will give bim a parliamentary following without recent parallel. Its quality is as remarkable as its quantity. It is aot dimply pledged to support the dissetabliehreent of the Irish Church ; it reflects the country's hearty adoption of Mr. Gladstone as the ►ead of the liberal party and the neesssery chief of the next liberal government. The majority in the last Rowe of Commons was Palmer- IliOnalla. The majority en the House of Commons which is now in primer of creation is Oladatonian. ♦ WORD TOR CH The Tedeq►aph observes that the constituency of Green wich has dune a conspicuous service to the w►ole nation. The liberal Fluty would, no doubt, even in the abeam* of Mr. Gladstone, have joined in decisive conflict, under the leadership of Dune trusty lieutenant, wit► the tory mine try and its no-policy. Yet Mr. Gladstone's absence from the great debate which he has been the chief means of bringing on would have done much to weaken the liberal patty ; and his volnuteer constituency merits the thanks of the country for preventing such a mishap. tlf SOOTWD. The people a protestant Scotland have, says the Star, not only sent up an all but unanimous representation " " • " pledged to vote for the disestablishment and disendow• meet of the Irish protestant church, but so resolved have they been to give the utmost sruppoi t to Mr. Gladstone, that in order to do so they have in some cases thrown off the political yoke of ages. The county elections in Scot land teach other lessons besides the thoroughly safe character, as regards protestantism, of Mr. Gladstone's policy. They show that the extension of the county Iran ( bias has introduced an independent and valuable class of voters, who are able to measure themselves with the land holders, and to defeat them. INK ONX RIGHTEOUS KAN. Amidst the defeats which the conservative cause has sustained in Scotland the Herald derives consolation from the fact that Lord Eleho has been returned by a decisive majority.

'OVEMBER 2 H • FOR."IGN NE*S. 'TM DAY.) THE WAIL IN NEW ZEALAND. By the snivel of the New Zeeland naafi we have advice' to the find October. Well par ticulars are given of the disastrous re pulse of the ooloniel forces by the Mamba of the west coast on the 7th Sept.. in which four teen of the British. 'minding five officers, were killed. The engagement occurred at apiece called Bearers, in the Pates district, province of Tara naki, and it srose from the occupation ,by Euro peans of confiscated land. A earrespondent, writing from Pates on the 14th September, says : The rebels are down in the neighbourhood of Wand camp, sad fired a heavy volley there ea Saturday even ing, end danced the war dame. The rebels admit the tom of two chide, namely, To Hewed, a hied thief isf firaulintru, and Te Rangihekeilso, the chief of Mawhitl whiti. Haas, one of the Hatepi sem was also killed. There was a serious mutiny of Major Yea Temp. sky's divides yesterday morning at Wahl, sad but for the tact of Major Hunter they would by this time have been well on their road to Whangeani. I fear the force at that poet is so utterly demoralised through the late defeat that it will be a long time before, (mina ever they are fit for service is the busk again. Since the Ord affair at Te Ngutn-o-talleau, the salves there, it is said, have received considerable reinforcements from the Taupe country, and even from the Waikato. They mean to make the west coast the scene of a trial of strength with the Pakeha. The whole of the friendly natives at Taiporoaheaui and Siatensarers, with the exception of Nokias, and about twelve men, have joined the rebels. On the night of the 14th September, Sweeney'• public-tiome, near Howbera, was burnt, and on the following morning Captain Morri son's house and outbuildings were also burnt. On the lith, the rebels crowd the Tongshoo river, end set fire to the blosk-house and other buildings at hfokoia. This last movement confirmed the news that the Pakakohi would join Titokewaru. The rebels bad also crept dews towards Threraromokai, and Led a very heavy volley at the outlying sentry, but fortunately missed him. Ensign Morrison, in the absence of Captain Spilbw, who had gone to Waihi on duty, immediately ordered all bands under arms. Soon after the volley at the *entry, a settler's house was set Ere to, and immediately following Mr. Oil fillan's home also was burnt. The rebels were clearly seen from the camp, and one or two volleys fired at them, which caused them to take cover rapidly I. the adjoining bush. About a quarter of a hour after the destruction of Mr. Oilill/an's house, the rebels were men running towards Mr. Cameron's wham, in the direction of Matangarara, and the force at Turoturomokai again opened tire on them, but could not save Cameron's house. LATER PARTICULARS. A communication dated September 27. says : On the 20th instant McDonnell and the friendly natives attempted to surprise Iltokowarn in his fortified pa at Taiporehenui. Every effort had been made to keep the intention eecret, but on reaching the pa it was found to be deserted, the plane of McDonnell having been betrayed. The pa and fortifications were destroyed. On returning, Colonel Baultain ordered the abandonment of all posts beyond Tangahoi river. Manawapou and Pates are the only pods to be defended. The Pates settlers contemplate rebooting to Whanganid. Great indignation is expressed at the adoption of this frontier policy. The Whanganui friendly natives declare they will fight no more. PROCLAMATION FOR A GENERAL RISING. A correspondent of the Southern Cross, writing from Whanganui on the 29th September, sap : Intelligence reached town late lest night that the enemy has crossed the Pates river in force yesterday. The news was brought to town bye stampede of frightened friendlies from the Waitotara district, whose lives (they had consi dered) were no longer safe from the Henbane. The greatest excitement prevails, not only among the European popula tion, but also among the Whangs.nui natives, among whom the impression (and it is not without signal canoe) prevails that the safety of the district is imperilled. They are clamouring for arms, every man of them—even those who before, from apathy or contempt of danger, hung back from volunteering to the front. Titokoweru, it is reported, bad with him 600 warriors ; this, however, I am inclined to think, is an exaggeration, for although in the best informed circles it is believed there are fully this number in rebellion at this moment, yet it is not likely that the whole force would throw themselves into a single and hazardous movement, leaving a large force of Europeans in their rear and dank. The enemy by this movement threatens not only the settled district of Waitotaro, but also WhanganuL Added to these ominous movements, the fact of the Maori King having issued and extemaively circulated a proclamation calling for a general rising in October, things conspire to look dark enough for this district. The whole of the militia and volunteers of Wanganui were paraded this afternoon, and the lit class militia (companies 1 and 2) are ordered to the old Wereroa pa to-morrow morning. Upwards of 100 natives, under Colonel McDonnell, leave along with them, to follow up and ight Titokowars. THE REBELS ON TUE EAST COAST. The government has received iuformation that To Koti, the fanatic chief of the Chatham Halasiss, now en. trenched at Puketapn, Poverty Bay, has admitted to some neighbouring tribes having suffered a lose of 6 killed and 18 wounded in the encounter with Colonel Whitmore, where Captain Carr and Mr. D. Canning were killed. Te Koti himself was wounded in the fight. (THROUGH ZROTRIeII AG)NCT.) HUNGARY. PENS, Nov. 23.

There is already evidence that the great legal consultation at Compiegne which I mentioned yesterday has resulted, not in the wise resolution to drop the Baudin prosecutions, but in a determi nation to terrify the judges all over the country by the various means which the administration commands, and to prevent them if possible from following the example of the Tribunal of Cler mont-Ferrand. M. Pinard's journal, the Eteraard, has been set on to insult the Auvergne judges in terms which would have certainly drawn down a prosecution upon any non-privi leged paper. "It is the first time for the last seventeen years," says the Men dard, " that a court of law has been found assosiating itself with political passions and quali fying itself to receive the compromising compli ments of hostile parties." The Procureur-General of Riom, in order to get the Clermont judgment reversed with the greater theatrical effect, has fixed the hearing of his appeal for December 2. The ground taken by the Cler mont tribunal is, however, so solid that the appeal court when called upon to overrule it must feel the government a hard taskmaster. The dictionary defines " manceuvres" :—" A combined move ment of troops ; and (figuratively) intrigues." Now, the judges stigmatised by the Eteadard as demagogues simply laid it down that the fact of publishing a list of subscriptions to build a monu ment to Baudin, by a Clermont journal which had no connexion whatever with the people who were at the Montmartre cemetery on Nov. 2, or with the Paris papers, could not, in any same of the word, be a " mancenvre." A long string of fresh Gaudin proeecutions will occupy the Paris Correctional Court on Friday. The Temps is to be defended by the grave M. Dufaure, who will not be so violeut as M. Gatnbetta, but far more terrible for such of the judges as are troubled with a conscience. A country judge of high rank, M. segsndy, first president of the Appeal Court of Montpellier, made a sharp speech at the opening of the courts after the long vacation against M. De'tingle's law, which forces judges to retire at a certain age. For this breach of discipline he has been severely ro priummled by the Minister of Justice, and, more over, the matter was brought before the last Council of Ministers, and the presumptuous judge has been called upon for explanations of his conduct. The Ministerial Council which was to have met at Compiignn to-day has been postponed, on ac count, it is understood, of the Emperor being somewhat fatigued by the duties of hospitality, and doing the honours of Compi4no forest in changeable weather. M. Casenave, who lately made a speech at a public meeting in the Pii-aux-Cleres, has been summoned before M. de Gonet, the judge of in struction, to answer • charge of exciting citizens to hatred of each other. This is the first prosecu tion since the new Public Meeting Act. In this case the defendant contests the accuracy of the report of the policeman on which the indietnient is grounded. _ _ The Mon iteur announces that the Prince and Princess of Prussia will probably prolong their stay at Windsor till December 15. This is a round about way of saying that the news published in Paris two days ego that they were expected at Compiigno was not true. It is said that Queen Christina, who now takes the title of Duchess d'Aranjuer, is included in the third series of invitations to Compi4ne. Don Carlos. calling himself Duke of Madrid, es atfeadastg his accession to the title of Charles VII., has gone to shoot at one of the oountry homes of the Duke de la Itoehefoueauld. ♦ otter in the Gass* eh Praire, with no other date than " the Spanish frontier, says that CI. Marquis de Villa-Pam. a staunch " Isabellist; brother of Count de' Zaldivar, brother-is -la w of the Marquis do Novaliches, and san-ia.4„ the Duchess of (}or, has committed suicide.
