Another Pamphlet from Gladstone
ON the PhIaCy.

LONDON, August ll.--Gladstone has
published another pamphlet, in which he
discusses new question relative to
Pupacy, which formed the ,ubjcrty of his
former pamphlet on "Naticani,n. The
present publication takes some very
strong grounds against papacy, and
predicts trouble in the future,
bo:hin Great Britain aud on the conti-
ncnt from that source. The pamphlet
declares that the Papacy will seize the
frs, opportunity, through blood>hed, to
maintain It's will. and will, if necessary,
even plunge the world into war. The
new doc1ment of the cx-prcmicr Is much
d ussc and IS calculated to revive the
religious conflict raised by his first efforts
on this subject.
The government ha, prohibited the
sale IN France of Right Hon. NJ. Glad
stones writings against the Pope.

Wheat and oats suffered the most. OF
the former two thirds of crop will be
saved, and of the laster less than half II
crop can be- saved. OF corn there will be-
more than an average crop. Owing to
the increase OF acreage, potatoes will
WELD largely, although some few have
