GLADSTONE ON THE IRISH QUESTION
Mr.. Gladstone's speech at Liverpool, on
a late occasion, contained the fullest and
most emphatic expression of his opinions
on the state of Ireland to which he has yet
committed himself, and, with Il keen appre-
citation of the gravity of the crisis to which
things have come in this country, displayed
generous sympathy with the people, and
an earnest purpose to remedy the evils by
which they are tormented. The tone and
matter of the speech are alike reassuring,
oushly generous and statesmanllke policy.
Mr.. Gladstone accuses the Government OF
having persisted in refusing ITO take any
true and adequate measure of the great
evil by which ireland is afhicted-the es-
arrangement of the people from public au-
thoriIy, from this country, (England), and
he repudiated, as utterly preposterous, the
Home Secretary's theory that this state OF
feeling has been produced by political agl-
tation, keeping alive the ancient traditions
of hatred to the Saxon race, and declaring
that the language held by the Government
i'm reference to Ireland was the very Ian
ruaoe and the very excuse used by the ty-
rant in every country in which tyranny pre-
vailed He considered it idle to deny the
existence of real grievances where such a
state of feeling existed, for it was lmpossI-
BILE to believe that the generous and kindly
mind of Ireland could have been SO dis
eased had the country been governed justly
and we'll. To show the depth and intensity
of the hatred ITO England possessing the
mind of the Iri sh race, as well as to dissipate
the false impression that Fenianlsm was
confined to the vary scum of society, Mr.
Gladstone quoted largely from Mr.. Ma
guire's 'Irish in America a book ON which,
he said, full reliance might be placed, and
| alluded to the Ballycoohey evictions as a
specimen of the injustice in which the SEN
| timent Mr. Mcguire described had origina-
ted. He then contrasted with the discon-
tent and disaffection of the Irish at home
their tranquil and loyal attitude in Canada.
where they were free from the irritating
influence of unjust legislation; and after
quoting Darcy M'Gee's eloquent exho ,;
miraculous agency of equal and exact JUS
tice for one or two generations" could eff
feet, affirmed that he was resolved to act on
the advice, with the fullest confidence IN
the efficacy of the policy it recommended.

ROME, Oct. 9.-It has just reached Rome,
on excellent authority, that another at
tempt has been made by the Menabra Cab
met to induce the Emperor, on the strength
withdraw the troops. His Majesty is said
to have replied that IL such q threat was re-
newed, HIS answer would be TO double the
garrison.
The Pope visited the villa of the Roman
College at Monte PariOlia, yesterday, and
passed some time in conversation with the
students and the Jesuit Fathers who direct
their studies, their new rector, the Canoni-
co SantOri, and then, having visited the
chapel, returned by the Porta Pia, inspect
ing the orphan schools of the province, di-
rected by the Belgian Sisterhood of Mount
Calvary, On his way home.
The Antilles Legion has just received two
recruits who yield nothing in devotion and
disinterestedness to the ZOuaves - NJ.
Edouard de Muligay, who, during the
past winter (being then in too delicate
the wounded in st. Spirito, and who is the
second son of one Of the principal noble
families of Marseilles, and M. Brignault,
who formed part of the French volunteer
ambulance at Montana, and who resigns o
brilliant position at the Bureau des Affaires
Etrangeres in order to offer his sword to
the Pope. Both enlist as simple soldiers.
The improvement in the religious and moral
tone of the Legion since it left Montana is
remarkable, and the efforts of its admirable
and Jealous chaplain, Mgr. Bastide, have
been crowned with the fullest success. The
Sisters of the military hospital state that
the change is most remarkable.
The effective force of the Pontifical army
is now IL 900 men and three batteries of
aifled cannon, besides the mountain battery
and the guns which are placed on the Aven-
tine and other Qualifications. corps of for
.eign artillerymen, drafted from the Zouaves,
has been formed, and volunteers are re-
ceived for it who possess certain know
ledge and aptitude for gunnery. Two small
war steamers have also been received for
service on the Tiher, SO as to-prevent any
decentralization of men in arms between
Conese and Frimiceico, tho length Of its
course in the Pontifical territory.
Three hundred Remington guns were dis
tributed this morning to the first compa-
mics of the Legion, the Swiss, and the

MORAL, CHRISTIAN ENGLAND.-The more in
dependent and honest of the English press are
not slow in showing mp the core spots in NOR
al, Christian England. The Pail Mall Gazette
says:
"That England is not innocent of Mormon.
ism is evident from statistics in an account OF
a half yearly conference lately held by the Lon
don Mormons The metropolitan district alone
has nine branches, with upwards of a thousand
members, the receipts amounting to 9S19, the
whole of which, almost, has been devoted to
emigration. Now, Mormonism in London Is
weak compared with other cities and towns
In Liverpool, for instance, it is believed to
flourish more than most persons are aware,
while. as we some time ago stated, and again
repeat, in Wales the progress 1T has made
| would astonish us all, if it could be accurately
| measured. But such an estimate is Impossible,
because the Mormon population is constantly
thinning off by emigration: None but the
| Mormons themselves can reckon on their con-
yerts, for almost as fast they are won they
are sbipped off to Utah. The Protestant min
| listers in Wales could probably supply the ma
| terials for an interesting work on this subject
if they were so disposed, and if some one with
a turn for writing the history of peculiar mo-
derr religions would take it up. We suggest
this subject to any brilliant writer anxious tx
produce the sensation book of the Forthcoming
] season.
