no power of the Government, there is no power of

From Jamaica Mr. GLADSTONE nat unatura
passes to Fenianism as affecting another colony.
He admitted that Fenianism derived its force from
a foreign agency and influence, though he hastened
to explain that he did not intend for a moment to
attribute the responsibility of their proceedings to
the American people. A sprinkling of persons in
that vast community may indeed sympathise with
the conspirators, but the great body of the American
people, he feels convinced, regard them with the
same feeling of condemnation as ourselves. With
regard to the threatened invasion of Canada Mr.
GLADSTONE asumes, we are glad to see, a most
decided tone. He is convinced of their ability
and their determination to resist the in-
vader ; and he adds, that if unhappily the
need arose there is no resource possessed by
this country that she would not fairly spend to
assist them in their holy work. The cheers which
greeted this announcement from the lips of a pro-
minent member of the Cabinet gave conclusive evi-
dence that Mr. LOWE'S Colonial policy met with no
more favour in South Lancashire than his anti-

Reform doctrines.
Of the Cattle Plague, his next topic, Mr,
GLADSTONE did not say much, except to
deplore the severity of the visitation in
particular localities, and to recommend the
example of Aberdeenshire to all agricultural
counties. Before coming to the discussion of the
Reform question, which was the " last, not least,"
subject to which he addressed himself, Mr. GLAD-
STONE hail a few words of praise to spare for the
New Parliament. Already, he said, it had done
good service in two or three important particulars,
such as the independent audit of every branch of
the public revenue, the control and superintendence
of public pensions (both reforms arising out of
the EDMUNDS'S scandal), and, finally, the Oaths
Bill. Mr. GLADSTONE took occasion to remark
upon the progress of toleration and good feeling
since that bill has passed the Lower House almost
unopposed, and has gone to the House of Lords
with every prospect of success. Part of the facility
with which this measure has been carried the Leader
of the House of Commons himself, not unversed in
the tactics of parties, attributes to the calm before
the political storm which may be expected to burst
upon the second reading of the Reform Bill. The
bill itself could scarcely find an abler advocate than
the right hon. gentleman. He reminded his hearers
that seven times had the subjectbeen recommendedto
the consideration of Parliament by her MAJESTY,
that " the great Lancashire nobleman," who was
the head of the opposite party, had expressed his
willingness to lower the franchise, and he repeated
in concise language the statistics which prove the
necessity of Reform. "We have a limited consti-
tuency, which amounts perhaps to 900,000. There
are four and a half millions of living and breathing
men, citizens, like ourselves, payers of taxes like
ourselves, bound to every civil duty like ourselves,
fathers of families like ourselves, having an interest
in the peace and order of the country like our-
selves, and in the face of these men these solemn
pledges have been given, which pledges there
are men who advise you to cast away with
scorn to the -winds of heaven." Mr. LowE,
who has put himself forward as the spokesman
of the anti-Reformers, was declared by Mr. GLAD
STONE to be the real leader of the opposition
to the bill, and his diatribe against the working
classes was held up, as it deserved to be, to indig-
nation and contempt. In reference to the motion of
the 12th of April, Mr. GLADSTONE humorously
asked, " Gentlemen, how often do you usually in
business transactions allow a man to renew a bill ?
. . . We call upon you to say whether you are
satisfied with this attempt for the seventh or eighth
time to put off that which I shall best de-
scribe in Liverpool as a mere renewal of a bill."
The warmth of his reception gave sufficient
evidence to Mr. GLADSTONE of the support of the
South Lancashire Liberals, who are at least willing
to accept the Bill as a step in the right direction,
better than the dreary inaction of late years; though
neither they nor its eloquent advocate can profess
,o believe that it is all that it might be.

The unsatisfactory condition of the Jamaica
peasantry will long form a subject of comment,
now that attention has once been called to it, and
those who have chosen to consider that the whole
thing has been far too much exaggerated, and
that in reality little or no disaffection existed, may
now discover their mistake, for recent intelligence
from Jamaica informs us that on the 14th of last
month the soldiers were called out to support the
civil powers, for-the first time-since the landing of
Sir H. STORKS. The cause of the disturbance was
the great irritation existing about the " land
question," which has 'been all along one
of the chief sources of confusion and con-
troversy. In the celebrated addresses which
preceded the outbreak and fanned the flame of dis-
L content until it reached a seditious heat and
violence, the constant theme of complaint was

the lands. The "back lands " were considered by

the peasantry at least to be their particular portion
and appanage, and the demagogues who unfor-
tunately obtained such influence are the people who
contrived to make great political capital out of this
fruitful source of misHchief.
tlands, Near
which has been Spanish Town
there is an estate called ar
of late years, and the free-
paid little regard to much what they
holders have been doing pretty
liked with the place. The innovations were
so great that at last the owner of the
place sought to enforce his " rights," and
of course was considered quite an intruder in his
turn. The Police-inSpector of Spanish Town and
the surveyor who went to fix the lines, according to
the order of the Judge, heard that they would meet

with resistance, and wisely withdrew accordinglY•
A striking instance of the harm occasioned by the
precipitate policy of the Home Government was
afforded in this case, because the people exclaimed
that the law they wished to enforce was Governor
EYRE' s law, and that the new authorities had brought
out new law. At any rate they preferred to offer
determined resistance to those who presumed to
interfere with them, and threw up barricades of
trees acrom the road which barred the entrance,
