SPEECH OF MR.. GLADsToNE-THR POLICY OF
THE MINISTRY EXPLAINED.
LONDON, Saturday, Oct %, 1871.
An immense gathering of the inhabitants of
Greenwich took place Blackhesth Common, to-day,
to hear an address from Mr. Gladstone 1t lie estimated
that nearly 1900 persons present Mr. Gladstone
said no profoundly impressed by the grandeur OF
this welcome and sorry that his duties the head
of Her Majesty's Government prevented him from
oftener visiting his immediate constituents He then
proceeded to discuss the subjects which agitated the
public The chief complaint against the Government
that 1t attempted to do too muoh But the necessity
existed for stating views and producing measures
subjects than 1t possible to carry into immed
ate effect The present Liberal Administration had had
the longest life Of similar Administration since 1884,
and there to believe that Its vitality
impaired
Mr.. Gladstone then delivered glowing eulogy Of the
Queen, and spoke In warm terms Of praise Of his col
leagues In the Government. Their labors had been
arduous, and the result showed they had not boon in
vain. Ireland seemed well satisfied with past
of concatlon and there every to hope for
future Of content In that island The facts connected
with dsnnissals from the dockyards had been grossly
exaggerated. The total number OF men discharged
only 146s, and this reduction of the force made in
accordance with policy which was originated by his
predecessor. The nation could not but be grated by
the economies Effected by the present Govern
ment through the abolition Of official patron
age, the concentration Of the military and
naval forceU, the withdrawal OF troops from
Canada and New-Zeaand, and 1.-THE introduction of the
system Of army reserves. There reason for much
congratuaton the abolition of the purchase system
in the army The House OF Lords might need reforming
but nothing should be done precpitatey. The Lords
had not acted wisely In rejecting the Ballot BILL which
would again be introduced In Parliament at the next
sion The act would be dealt with at
the next session In manner TO command the sympa-
thes Of the nation Other would be brought
forward which, he hoped would meet with the approval
of Parliament and the country.
At the conclusion Of his address resolution welcoming
and thanking Mr. Gladstone was put and carried with
enthusiastic demonstrations Of approval.
