MISCELLANEOUS TOPICS.

The Other Place.

One of the Most noticeable points in the debate
on the third reading of the Land Bill was the hint
thrown out by Mr. Hardy, that the measure might
.be " improved ' in another: place by the removal of
the anti-landlord provisions. Mr. Gladstone
thought this a "most ominous " remark, and plainly
intimated that " it is not possible for the Government to
hear the expression of that opinion without feeling
that any alteration of the principle of the bill in the
sense indicated by the right lion. gentleman would,
in our opinion, deprive it of all its force and
value." There may perhaps be a little trouble
on this point. The Standard is exceedingly
angry with the reply of the Premier, just as the
Liberal journals are dissatisfied with the indiscreet
remark of Mr. Hardy. If the measure fall through,
this year, says the Standard, Mr. Gladstone will
have only himself to blame. Mr. Hardy's remark
had an ugly ring, says the Telegraph. The peers will
think twice before they do anything very awkward,
intimates the Daily News. The " dictation "of Mr.
Gladstone is regarded by the Standard as insolent,
impertinent, and unwarranted: The peers, says the
Telegraph, cannot fail to appreciate the terrible con-
sequences of throwing out the bill.
The Nonconformists and Education.

The Nonconformists, as far as they are represented by
the Birmingham Central Committee,have pronounced
against the Government amendments to the Educa-
tion Bill. They have passed resolutions condemning
those amendments, inasmuch as it is still left in the
power of the school boards to require the schoolmaster
to teach sectarian formularies and dogmas; and that
unless such amendments are introduced into the
Bill as shall secure that the religious instruction
given in schools supported or aided bv the rates is
confined to the reading of the Scriptures, it will be
the duty of the Nonconformists to do their utmost to
prevent the passing of the measure.
