GLADSTONE ON THE IRISH QUESTION
Mr.. Gladstones speech at Liverpool, on
II 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 keen appre-
citation of the gravity of the crisis to which
things have come in this country, displayed
a generous sympathy with the people, and
an earnest purpose to remedy the evils by
which they are tormented. The tone and
matter Of the speed. . are alike reassuring,
oughly generous and statesmaniike policy:
Mr.. Gladstone accuses the government OF
having persisted in refusing 'sto take any
true and adequate measure of the great
evil by which ireland is af1icted-the es-
arrangement of the people from public au-
thori1y, from this country, (England), and
he repudiated, as utterly preposterous, the
Home Secretary's theory that TINS state OF
feeling has been produced by political agi-
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 lam
ruage 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 imPossl-
BILE to believe that the generous and klndIy
mind of Ireland could have been SO dis
eased had the country been governed justly
| and we'll. To show the depth ana intensity
of the hatred to England possessing the
mind of the Irish 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
CURES "Irish in America" book on which,
he said, full reliance might be placed, and
alluded to the Ballycoohey evictions us
snecimen of the Injustice in which the sem
timent Mr.. Mcguire described had origina-
ted. He then contrasted with the discon-
tent and disaffectiop 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'GeesT eloquent exnof tia-
| tion to English statesmen to try what 1.-THE
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.

The Antilles Legion has just received two
recruits who yield nothing in devotion and
Fdisinterestedness to the ZOuaves - M.
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 a
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 600 men and three batteries of
sifled cannon, besides the mountain battery
and the guns which are placed on the Aven-
tine and other Notifications. A 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 Tiber, SO as to prevent any

MORAL, CHRISTIAN ENGLAND.-The more IN
dependent and honest of the English press are
not slow in showing mp the sore spots in NOR
al, Christian England. The Pail Mdtt 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 toI9, 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, ana again

| would astonish us all, if it could be accurately
lmeasured. 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-
verts for almost as fast as they are won they
are shipped off to Utah. The Protestant mill

terials for an interesting work on this subject
