LORD AMBERLEY ON EDUCATION.
Yesterday afternoon Lord Amberley, on laying the
foundation-stone of a new Congregational Day School in
Newcastle, said that while he believed it to be the duty
of the nation to provide education for the people, he
should regret to see any measure adopted which would be
the means of putting an end to voluntary effort. In the
evening Lord Amberley attended a public meeting in
Newcastle, and delivered an elaborate and carefully-pre-
pared speech on the education question. He advocated
secular education, and urged the I:7;:mconformists to re-
main firm in their demands. Grants to denomination-
alism meant grants to Catholicism. Mr. Glad-
stone, he said, was supporting this bill with
all his eloquence. The Premier had not been a
Liberal all his life, but he had gradually advanced
in Liberal opinions, and they had every reason to
hope that he would advance in the future in the same
way. That being so, it seemed to him that the Conser-
vative party were doing wisely in accepting the offer now
made Then he trusted, however, that more liberal opi-
nions. witn respect to education would force themselves
j upon Mr. Gladstone.

DEVON CENTRAL CHAMBER OF AGRI-
CULTURE.
At the Devon Central Chamber of Agriculture a dis-
cussion, which has extended over three sittings, on the
condition of the agricultural labourer, was concluded yes-
terday afternoon. Canon Girdlestone was present, and
replied on the whole discussion. A resolution was
unanimously adopted thanking Canon Girdlestone for his
generous efforts to improve the condition of the agricul-
tural labourer, but considers that while wages are pro-
perly an occupier or employer's question, the considera-
tion of the homestead or dwelling of the labourer is
mainly an owner's question. The discussion was gene-
rally favourable to the substitution of money for cider
as wages, and of giving labourers good cottages and gar-
den plots.
