LONDON. Friday, Jan. 5-ta. m,
Mr.. Gladstone, in Withdrawing as leader Of tho
Liberal party, writes TO Earl Granville: "The time
has arrived when ought to revert to my letter OF
March last.' ....Y
After reviewing number of public and private
considerations Mr. Gladstone says: 81 see no public
advantage in my continuing to act as leader Of tho
Liberal party. After AZ years Of laborious public
life, think myself entitled 10 retire with the pres
ent opportunity. This retirement is dictated by
personal views, regarding the method OF spending
the closing years of my life. Ny conduct in Parlia-
ment will continue to be governed on the same
principles as hitherto and arrangements for the
treatment Of general business and to advance tho
convenience Of the Liberal party will have my cor
dial support" .
Earl Granville replies: al have commnnicatedin In
detail the reasons for which profoundly regret and
doprecate your decision. My late colleagues fully
agree in this regret at the failure Of the eDdeavors to
dissuade you from your purpose, and doubtless
the Liberal party also with in the obserya-
tons We addressed you, prompted by considerations
Of public advantages and not merely by sense OK

OPPOSING THE LOUISIANA OUTRAGE AS A
REPUBLICAN.

A CARD FROM THE HON. WAYNE hACVEAGH-oSh
MANLY VOICE FROM PENNSYLVANIA.
70 the Edttor or The Tribune.
SIR: was sorry, but not at all surprised, to hnd
in your issue OF yesterday virtual acknowledgment
that the meeting at Cooper Institute ON MONDAY
night was in q great measure composed oil the ad-
herents of the Democratic party. For that result
Won blame Republicans, saying that " they generally
seem to have determined TO make partisan matter
of the Louisiana affair and to adopt blindly what
ever measures it may please the President to deter
mine upoD."
The gravity of the charge thus made can scarcely
be exaggerated, and ask you to enter my protest
against the accuracy of your inference. No man
honors Mr. Bryant and Mr. Evarts more heartily
than do and it was the plain duty of the latter as
the leader of the bar of the country,.to give the
weight of his learning and his character 10
the imperiled cause Of constitutional liberty.
/ can even appreciate the generous disregard
of misconstruction which led those gentlemen
to express their opinions upon the subject ~
that meeting; but surely it Is possible Tor other
members Of the party to be loyal to the cause
of good government and yet to feel unwiihhe W

MESSAGE OF GOV. SMITH OF GEORGIA.

cage was read in both Houses of the Legislature
to-day 1t shows that there is balance In the
Treasury of 81 00312 and that the affairs OF the
State are in prosperous condition. At the close OF
the message he deprecates Federal interference in
the affairs of the Southern States and shows Its eVlI
effects The message concludes as follows:

exercise OF the elective franchise and the purity OF the
baOtbOx are al once the form and essence OF public
liberty. The recent attempt TO peryert the popular
Will in Louisiana may well excite the Rravest
approximations There would indeed be little ground OF
hope for the peipetuty OF free institutions ii such
usurpatlon were met with public apathy. Happily.
however, 10 has produced the contrary effect, and
patriotism finds announcement in the almost universal
