The Leadership of the House of Conn
mona
London Correspondence of the Manchester Guar
dian

lLondon Correspondence of the Manchester Guar
diah.J
A feeling exists that more debating
strength is needed on the Treasury Bench
in the House of Commons. Sir George
Gray's forte does not lie in the cut and
thrust of parliamentary battle; and the
weight of the ministry of the Indian en-
plre is more than enough to absorb the
physical and mental energiesof Sir CHARLES
Wood. Mr.. Gladstone has the weightand
spirit of a giant but ever giants are gifted
with but one voice, and though its echoes
may be louder than those of ordinary men.
the rules of debate do not allow its utter
ance to be more frequent. What. then. is
to be done to make up for the loss of the
First Minister of the Lower House? A
friendly notice to quit is felt to be floating
IN the air, and people are busy coniectur-
ing at whose feet it will fall. l still be-
heve that Lord Granville is likely to take
Lord Cowley's place at Paris, and I shall
not be surprised if next week we had a
new Postmaster General, and a new Sec
rotary for Ireland. Mr.. Chichester
FOrtesend is spoken of as a probable sue
cessor to Sir Robert Peel in the latter
position.
III OlduhtOne WOULD like to slpnahZe
his promotion to the leadership of the
Commons by some measure of magnitude
worthy ofcomparison with those already
identified with his NAME. He was foiled
in the cabinet last year when he sought to
obtain the sanction of his colleagues for a
comprehensive measure of railway mr.
chase by the government. One of his chief
opponents is said to have been Nh. Miner
Gibson, whose sense of caution has grown
peculiarly acute in all that relates to con-
testable measures, and who succeeded in
persuading the majority of his ministerial
comrades that, whether theoretically right
or wrong,the Chancellor of the Excheouer's
cheUat de 6ataiAe, however spirited well
groOmed and well ridden, would be certain
to throw its rider. Since then a roval
commission of inquiry has been appointed
and most important evidence will be found
in its report, when completed, on the prac-
teal working of the present system. Mr..
Gladstone is not a man easily to
an idea, and 1 hear that there is q notion
of his "trying it on" as the phrase is, with
reference to the Irish railways, Just by way
of a beginning.

Governor Bramlette, of Kentucky, has
issued a proclamation informing the peo-
pie of the State that the President has ap-
pointed the It'll of December as a day of
thanksgiving, and calling upon them to
observe it. He says; 1.-THE wal that en-
sanguined our fields with the blood of our
homes with the anguish of grief, is Ger
past, and peace, gentle peace, has spread
her balmy wings DER all our beloved land.
We this day rejoice in peace returned, the
Union preserved, and the government re-
stored. a klnd Providence has added Che

West virginia.

The proposition to reunite West Vir-
ginia with the remaining portion ofthe Old
Dominion seems a little like the ancient
custom of claiming a living man to n
dead body. There has always been a
strongIy-marked difference between the
two divisions, and recent events have ten
ded to increase it. The separation was a
natural one. Connecting West Virginia
still more closely to those free States
which she so much resembled has served
to intensity the life and vigor that always
characterized her. The energy with
which she has assumed her new position
has heightened into glaring contrast, the
difference formerly existing between her
thriftiness and prosperity and thedeclining
fortunes of that older and impoverished
portion, which so madly completed the
work of its own d~esolation and ruin, by
taking part with the seeding States and
becoming the theatre of war.

Strange Occurrences at PaImerstOn's
Grave.
[From the Manchester Guardian.J

From the Manchester Guardian.
1t is stated that when the Dean of West
minister pronounced the words "dust to
dust, ashes to ashes over the grave of
Lord Palmerston the chief mourner, as q
last precious offering to the dead, threw
into the grave Sererat diamonds and gold
rings. Another account says that the
vault was Sc constructed that it would not
permit of the throwing in of any earth at
the most solemn portion of the service.
The novelty attracted a great deal of notice
and ives received with various degrees Of
appreciation. To some it appeared a great
improvement, as taking away all the earthly
~hideousness of burial; but others thought
that the traditional solemnity of the grave
suffered when the dread words, "ashes to
ashes, dust to dust were not accompanied
by the usual symbolic sprinkling of earth
on the coffin. The chief mourner respond
ed to the words by casting several Talus-
bic rings into the grave.

The Declaration of War by Chill
against Spain.
PROCLAMATION BY THE PRESIDENT OF
chilli.

PROCLAMATION BY THE PRESIDENT OF
CHILL.
The government of Spain his Just
opened hostilities against the republic,
placing a WITH Tire squadron
which she has in the Pacific, to the port
of Valparaiso, and according to reasons for
presuming, to other CHILEAN ports, not
withstanding the reiterated protests which,
in the name of the government of Chilli,
have been addressed to tho chief of oaid
squadron, agrinst an aggression which is
justified by nothing, and which wounds
deeply the honor and rights of Chill.
Provoked in this manner to war, the peo-
pie and government of the republic find
themselves compelled to accept it as the
only recourse to vindicate its dignity and
privileges, unjustly trampled upon, and
to provide for its security, now menaced.
Therefore, in use of the power which part
Is of article 50 of the constitution of the
State confers upon me; in conformity
with the authority with which the law of
the oath instant, in section l of its only
article invests me, l now declare and de-
cree sOlemnly;
l. The republic of Chill accepts the
war which the government ofSpain has ex-
cited against her.
2. All trade and commerce and every
kind of relations between the beligerent
States are broken off.
3. The authorities and citizens of the
republic will exercise by perfect right, and
will comply with a sacred duty by COM
hitting hostilities against the enemy, re-
pelling his aggression and defending the
national territory by all means which the
law of nations permits, and are allowed
among civilized people in any unforeseen
case in which they may not have received
especial instructions on any part to the
purpose.
4. The minister of foreign affairs of the
republic will communicate to the friendly
nations this declaration, and will explain
the motives of the war and the justice of
our cause; and the minister of the interior
will cause it to reach the knowledge of all
citizens of the republic, and order it to be
published with due solemnity.

How to Stop divorces.

Bya Prussian law passed in 1914, no
divorce case can be tried until the clergy
man of the Parish in which the unhappy
couple live has had an opportunity of re-
conciling them to their chains. In the
year 1864 there were seven thousand five
hundred and ninety-six couples who
wished to part, and out of these no less
than three thousand seven hundred and
seventy-four were induced by the clergy
man to give up their unamiable intentions.
In this way the lawyers lost no less than
forty-eight per cent. of their expected
business.

Prosperity of the New York Tribune.

Inc New 1OrK correspondent OF the
Cincinnati Gazette says:
1 would mention as a specimen of the
newspaper business of New York that the
Tribune, on the first inst, divided $4,000
on four months business. As the entire
original stock of that institution was only
100000, a dividend of $3.50, 900 per an
nun may be considered quit satisfactory.
The shares are not TO bs had, but they are
quoted at $4,000 each; the last sale hav-
ing been made at something less than that
figure. The Tribune is very far from
what it ought to be as a great newspaper,
in my judgment, but I presume it is an
interesting publication at least to the
s~tnckhnldnrs

And felt the ache which. pierces the sad heart
In the first lOneness OF rs agony

GEN. CLAY AT ST. PETERSBURG.

Cassius NJ. Clay, u minister to Russia,
makes up by warmth of social nature what
he lacks in tact and refinement of culture.
With all his occasional ~brusqueness and
his impulsive utterances he is one of the
most characteristic and popular represen-
tatives we ever had in st. Petersburg. The
Russian court was accustomed to diplo-
matists of the Pinkney stamp, who did all
in their power to misrepresent the free and
to exalt the slave States. Cassius M. Clay
is a prominent diplomatic evidence of the
new era abroad as we'll MS at home and
particularly with aview to the information
al Attitudes between the growing power
OF America and of Russia, it is rather 3
matter of cong~ratulation that we are rep
resented there by so sterling a patriot as
he. He has a semi-military, semi-convi-
val appearance, which is instinct with au-
thority, and at the same time wins the
heart. He has been severely criticized for
his violent speech in this city in 1861, but
the sequel has shown that his excessive
zeal on behalf of the Union was fully
warranted by the unbounded hostility in
England to It's restoration and if his zeal
outran his discretion, he will be more read
lily pardoned than many of his captious
critics, whose discretion was greater than
their zeal. He has also been blamed for
his republican manner of addressing the
Gar, to whom he declared on his first in
PRODUCTION to his majesty that he looked
upon him as the greatest Emperor of Rus
STA since Peter the Great, on account of his
emancipation of the serfs. Although such
a frank expression of feeling may have
been contrary to etiquette on that p%articu-
lar occasion, it was not the less appreciat-
ed by Emperor Alexander, with whom as
well as with the ladies of the Imperial
family, Mr.. Clay is quite a favorite. His
wife and daughter have returned to Ken
lucky, but Mr.. Clay seems to enjoy his
bachelor life. His annual "jams" have
become institutions at st. Petersburg, and
he keeps on good terms with everybody
about him-not a difficult thing for q man
of his social position.

ouR MINIsTER AT vIENNA.

[1-@
The Hon. LOthrop Motley, our minister
in Austria, may more fifty be called a rep
resentstive of the highest order of Ameri-
a literature than of American states
manship. ApIr from his reputation as
an accomplished but rather laundering
historian, he possesses remarkable social
requirements, and his prediction for the
society of Austrian and English aristocra-
cy is, to some extent, accounted for by his
cordial reception in these select circles. In
his communications to the State Depart
ment, Mr.. Motley is apt to trespass upon
the ground of his colleagues in other parts
of Europe, and they read rather like lite
rary essays or the general condition of
European politics, than like diplomatic
dispatches emanating from the minister ac-
credited to the court of Austria. Coming
from such a high quarter, however, they
are not the less welcome in the State De-
partment, where, in proper time, they will
serve as a historical record of Mr.. Mot
Iey's literary achievements.
