much enthusiasm. !
After the usual vote of thanks to the |

IRISH EDUCATIONAL INTERESTS.
On the oath ult., large and influential
deputation, composed OF several members
of Parliament, some Catholic clsrgymeD,
bodies in ireland, waited ON Mr.. Glad
stone, in reference to tho question of Irish
Education. The Lord Mayor of Dublin
explained to the Minister that the object
Of the doputation was to ergo him to bring
measure which will confer on the people Of
Ireland "perfect educational freedom and
equality" IL the members Of the deputA-
ton hoped to obtain . frank and decisive
intimati0n Of the views Of the Government
considerably disappointed; for Mr.. Glad
stones reply Is as vague a. 1t could we'll
be made even by him. It informed them
simply that the Cabinet still considers that
the Catholic people Of ireland, land like
wise some other religious communities in
grievance in the matter of higher educa-
ton that the Government will endeavOr
to remove that grievance con the same
principles as those it has endeavored to
apply to other Irish questiOns"-words
which may be interpreted to mean any
thing; that tue question of intermediate
and primary education ia, indeed, "a very
! proper subject for the attention of Govern
ment," but that it "stands to be consider
ed on ground of general policy rather than
of specific acknowledgements again, which
may be interpreted to mean anything; and
that, .tas to the question of time, it will
not be long before the Government is able
to deal with the question" In plain words,
Mr.. Gladstone considers that the Catholic
people of Ireland have no specific griev-
ance in the matter of intermediate or of
primary education, and that, although they
have such q grievance in the matter of
university education, he ought not put
himself at present to any trouble In remOv-
ing it. We may just observe that Mr..
Gladstone, in the course of his reply, made
the curious admission that the pressure OF
Scotch and English Parliamentary business
prevented any attention whatever being
paid to such important Irish questions as
that with which the deputation were con-
cerped.
THE MONAGHAN ELECTION.
The declaration of the poll at the Mon.
aghan election, which took place on Satur
, day, showed that Mr.. Leslie obtained
, 1888, and Mr.. Butt 1851 votes. The large
ness of Mr.. Leslie's majority may be &C
! counted for by the fact that while he hat
r canvassed the county and had made every
e preparation for the contest, there was NJ
4 canvass and no organization worth speak
n ing of on the other side. There seems T.
have been, also, a certain amount of land
n lord influence (Which can never be effect
v ually or entirely neutralised except by tn
4 Ballot) brought to bear in Mr.. Leslie's ia
yor Indeed, Mr.. r. B. Butt, in his speed
4 on the hastings, declared that he himsel
# knew baiIiffs to be in the booths, and a
d least, one voter-a tenant farmer-wh
n "avowed that he gave his vote contrary t
,e his conscience, and to please the bailif
n. Of those who supported Mr.. Butts yer
"a nearly fourth consisted of the tenant
and the immediate friends of Mr.. job
Madden, whose conduct during the eles
ce ton rebounds very much to his credi
sn The speech of Mr.. Leslie, if his few IT
I'll marks can properly be dignifed by til
to title of "speech," calls for no further NJ
100 tice than to say that it was exactly such {
eel might have been expected from o man Pc
