THE ENGLISH PREMIER AND THE
LATE GEORGE PEABODY.
From Wc \, 7. Times.

From the n. y. Tines.
The Lord Mayors dinner is an occasion on
which it becomes necessary for the Prime
Minister of England to make a long speech
without saying anything. The city of Lon
don has, in its time, made great sacrifices on
behalf of the government-more than once
it has melted down all its plate in order to
provide some ready money for impoverished
monarchs. 1t consequently has become a
tradition Of the government to keep ON good
terms with the 'City, and on the day when a
new Lord Mayor comes into Office, which hap
pens on the 9th of November every year. the
chief Ministers of State condescend to eat
some turtle soup and green fat at the Man
sion House, in the presence of crowd of
gaping aldermen and their wives. In return
for this hospitality speeches are exacted from
the guests, and as the Prime Minister is rarely
willing to announce a definite policy for the
first time at one Of these civic feasts although
Sir Robert Peel once made an exception to
the rule-he usually endeavors to tickle his
audience with straws. Few nOen are 80 COM
petent to construct an endless tangle of
words without beginning middle, or end as
Mr.. Gladstone He is a great man with an
unriyaled talent for prolixity. A Lord Mayors
dinner, therefore, presents no difficulties to
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1869-11-12

him. We saw by his speech on Wednesday that
he produced "windbags" one after the other,
with rapidity which Lord Palmerston could
not have excelled
All that the Premier said in reference to
Ireland we may set aside as so much talk,
intended to satisfy his hosts without retard-
ing the process of digestion by calling their
intellects into play. His reference to this
country is of greater interest, because it is
less encumbered by the manifest effort TO
avoid the revelation of Cabinet secrets. Mr.
Gladstone once more avows the most cordial
feelings towards the United States, aud we
have no doubt we shall find, when the full
reports of his speech reach us, that he ava
kened a sympathetic response in declaring
that the recollection of Mr.. Peabody ought
to make England more anxious than ever to
preserve friendly relations with America. We
need scarcely say that in England the name
of Mr.. Peabody is ''household word, and
even the poorest of the poor know that he is
an American, and honor him not only as
benefactor, but as q representative OF his
countrymen. The working classes generally,
and the unemployed poor, have never shared
that jealousy of America which the middle
and upper classes have at times enter
tanned, of which Mr.. Roebuck was the fitting
spokesman, and which led Mr.. Gladstone him
self to declare in 1868 that Jefferson Davis
had made nation. He has since confessed
that she took moro upon himself than he
ought to have done" in making that announce
ment, and there is no reason to quarrel with
his later expressions Of opinion in reference
to the United States.
Mr.. Gladstone is especially happy in his
eulogy Of Mr.. Peabody when he says that he
has ''taught us the most needful of all les
sons-how man can be master of his for
tune, and not its slave This must always
be the most instructive feature in the his
tory of Mr.. Peabody's life. He gave away
the greater part of his wealth while he still
had health and strength to enjoy it-for it is
only within the last two years that his con-
stitution seemed to collapse. Last summer
he was able to go on a fishing excursion with
Mr.. Bright. He believed that he had formed
a plan for doing good to a vast number of
people, and he was anxious to see the work
begun in his lifetime. His native nobility
of character his unselfshness and self-denial
for even the voice of envy and detraction
can never say that he spent his money upon
himself-have won for him greater honors in
England than have ever before been paid TO
q private citizen of foreign birth From
the Queen to the pauper, all classes have
united to pay respect to his memory Mr..
Gladstone is quite right in saying that incl
dents of this kind do more than all the cum
brous devices of diplomatists to promote a
right understanding between nations.

EXTRAORDINARY NAVAL MOVEMENTS
HAVE THEY REFERENCE TO CUBA?

From the NJ T. Herald.
The unusual activity of the Navy Depart
ment and extraordinary movements of war
vessels are not without cause, OF they indi-
cate precautionary steps,sat least, to meet
some particular or possible contingency. The
question naturally arises whether all this has
not reference to Cuba and the policy the
Government is about to pursue with regard
to that island. II is certain there can be no
other reason for these movements; for there
is not the least probability of trouble, either
at home or with foreign nations, except that
which might possibly arise with Spain relative
to the Cuban question. Not that we believe
or that the Government thinks there would be
reason to apprehend war with Spain should the
United States recognize the belligerent rights
or independence Of Cuba, but if such a step
be contemplated by the administration precau-
tionary measures to meet even a contingency
So unlikely are proper. Besides, powerful

$50 you have changed your seamstress
l see" said Mrs, NJ. yiew to her fashiona'
bic friend, Mrs. Harris.
"Oh. yes, and you cannot think what
difference it makes in our expenses; you
know paid Amy Chilson half-a-erown q
day, and she only came at eight and
worked till seven.
"That was reasonable, certainly" in
terrupted Mrs. Mayhem; II am sure |
don't see how any one could veil work
cheaper"
"You don't ?-wcll, then, only pay
the girl have now one-aud' sixpence, aud
she works an hour latter, and sews beau
,ifully; what do you think of that?" ex-
claimed Mrs. Harris, triumphantly.
Z" think that it is not enough" an
swered her friend, "Only consider, my
dear Mrs. Harris, twelve hours of steady
labor, for the pit,ful sum Of onc-and-
sixpcnce; surely it is hardly just"
:" II | pay the girl all she asks, don't
see why it is not just!" replied Mrs,
Harris, reddening, "Sle is a better
judge, probably, than either you or ], Of
what she can or cannot of r.; il til
chooses to do my sewing for one-and-
sixpence, | don't know why should offer
her more"
Poor girl; probably she is afraid to
demand the price which is.by justice hers,
lest, from that grasping aud oyerbcaring
spirit with which such demands are too
umet, she would be refused all en-
ploymcat," said Mrs Mayhem.
Mrs. Harris was nov really angry,
and answered accordingly.
Indeed, Mrs. Mayhem, l did not
know that was accountable to you for
my actions; when J am, it will be time
enough for you to assume the Office Of
Mentor p
II am sorry to have offended YOU"
said Mrs Mayhem, rising camly from her
seat, when We meet again trust all will
be forgotten. One thing more; can you
tell me where Miss Chilson liyesE
"No; for l never asked her." un-
graciOusly replied Mrs Harris.
