dom, if" etc.-by no means answers the
question put to him. Whalley adds: "This
extraordinary inference is drawn by Glad
stone, not from the question put to him,
Church of Rome. but from two separate
propositions which Mr.. Gladstone himself
devised or imagined" How true il the
saying, g He that's convinced against his
will, is of the same opinion STILL" But if
these over-zealous Protestants feel them
possible denial from Mr.. Gladstone him
self, they owe it to the public to explain
why they continue to prosecute him with
interrogetions which he has declared to be
insulting. Mr.. Gladstone's sister has, no
doubt, for many years been q convert to
the faith, and is devout and exemplary
AID charitable Catholic lady.
No doubt, also the Premier himself has
all along been the intimate friend of sever
al distinguished Catholics at homo and
abroad: notably Of the late Cardinal Wise
man, and of his old schoolfellows and OK
ford friends and associates, John Henry
Newman and Archbishop Manning. No
doubt also he is at once q man of first rate
intellect, and great theological attainments
and Of deeply religious sentiments-quali-
ties which, meeting in the same individual,
| are certain, as the experience of all ages
has shown, to bring their professor very
near the Church, il not into 1t. Bat it ls
equally certain that Gladstone is not a
concealed Catholic. He is too much i'm
mersed ut present in the turmoil Of affairs
to attend to the practical bearing OF
those religious questions which he has
certainly mastered intellectually. ALI good
Catholics must pray that SO great and hon.
est q mind may be brought at last to the
recognition and reception of the fullness OF
religious truth, and their prayers will not
be the less fervent because for the present
Gladstone is really serving Catholic inter-
ests infinitely better than he could do if he
were an open and avowed convert.
The great gun, weighing thirty five
tons, surnamed the "Woolwich Infant"
has broken down and must undergo
a process of renovation before it can again
safely resist the enormous strain of sixty
six tons to the square inch. II. w.

A COOP ExAMPLE.-The Irish Primo
Minister of Australia, Charles Gavan Duff
fy, has few antiquated ideas about the
duties of Office holders, economy in the ad-
ministration of government, honesty, etc,
which have, doubtless, earned for him the
contempt and ridicule of majority of ofi-
| Gals in more enlightened countries, (these
glorious United States for instance,) but
which, nevertheless, he seems fully deter
mined to put into practice. Says an Ex-
change:
The Victorian Prime Minister, Mr.. Gayan
Duffy, amongst other reforms, is efecting
considerable retrenchments in the Civ!i
Service estimates. When moving tho estl-
mates Mr.. Duffy stated that with regard 10
the general question of reductions, Minis-
tiers had begun 10y reducing their own sara.
