THEIR REMEDL

Lastly, the author points out that in order to extinguish
Irish grievances a tide of public opinion in favour of gene-
rous measures is needed, and " a man or men fit to take
the lead." It may be said that public opinion in England
only yields to fear. But among instances of the same kind
Lord Russell remarks, that the great Tory party did not
embrace household suffrage " until the railings in Hyde
Park had been levelled to the ground, and sundry meetings
had taken place, more remarkable for their numbers and
their physical force than for argument or for elo-
quence." As regards the man needed for the crisis,
the author refers us to Mr. Gladstone. " The Uni-
versity of Oxford, overflowing with bigotry," might re-
ject him, " but I feel persuaded the great county of
Lancaster would never fail him." The plan of operation
for dealing with the Irish Church is then described.
"Two steps only are required : one a resolution of the
House of Commons affirming the equality of the Churches ;
the other an address to the Crown praying for measures
to give effect to that resolution. Her Majesty's Ministers
could not refuse to obey this command. Mr. Disraeli has
already advocated the principle involved, and as he has
publicly declared that he will not allow the Liberal party
to have the monopoly of liberal measures, and he has
educated his party, "we may expect that so easy a lesson
as that of ecclesiastical equality in Ireland, the Pons Asino-
runt of political geometry, must have been mastered by all
the more intelligent of his pupils." Lord Stanley asks
for another year. "No ! let us say decidedly, No ! We
cannot, therefore, accept the Bristol stone offered us by
Lord Stanley as a real diamond." There must be a real
union of the two nations, not a repeal of the union. The
Liberals in this matter are like the pioneers of the Abys-
sinian Expedition—they clear the way

" We are fated to shew the way of Reform to Tory
Ministers. So it has been with Catholic Emancipation ;
with the Corn Laws ; with the Reform Act of 1867. For
fifteen years we preached in vain that the admission of the
working classes to the franchise was required by the state
of society, and that it would strengthen the Consti-
tution."

But Sir Robert Napier thanked the engineers for their
aid, whereas, says the author, " those for whom we
cleared away the obstacles find a pleasure in heaping abuse
and foul language upon Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright,
and the rest of the Liberals who have been the pioneers of
Reform." With an apology for any inaccuracies in his
letter, Lord Russell concludes thus :

" The English have the most perseverance, the Scotch
the most sense, the Irish the most generosity. But all
these nations, speaking one language, living in two islands
closely connected, governed by a mixed race of Norman,
Saxon, and Celt, are destined to form, as they have formed,
through dangers, convulsions, and disasters, a community—
or, if you will, an empire, distinguished by its high spirit,
its freedom, and its civilisation. Let us only add Hibernia
Pacata to our victories of peace, and the future may exceed
the past."

THE PENALTY OF DEATH IN SWITZERLAND.—
The Grand Council of the canton of Friburg has just re-
established the penalty of death, which was abolished 20
years ago. Out of 85 votes, 51 supported the reintroduc-
tion.

A MAN KILLED AND EATEN BY PIGS.—On
Sunday morning, about nine o'clock, the body of a man
was discovered in one of the pigsties adjoining the side of
the railway at Cowpen-quay, Blyth. It was identified as
that of Mark Long-staff, trimmer, a native of Morpeth,
who has followed the occupation of trimmer at Blyth for
some years. The deceased was found in a sitting posture in
one corner of the " outrake," with the clothes nearlyall torn
off by the pigs, and a portion of the body
eaten away.
A stretcher was procured and the body removed tohis home,
when Dr. Wardle and Son were called in. No marks of
violence were to be seen on the face, except a slight mark
upon the upper lip, as if it had been pressed upon some
railing or prop end. Deceased left the Ship, Crofton, about
twelve o'clock on Saturday night, rather the worse for
liquor, in company with a man named Thomas Richard-
son, who lives at Cowpen-quay. He left Richardson's
about one o'clock on Sunday morning for Blyth, and was
not again seen until the body was discovered as stated
