THE ENGLISH BUDGET.
ME- GladStone's Assault on Disraeli's
Plan Of Finance.
LONDON, May o--1 A. u.

LONDON, May 81 A d.
In the House or Commons last night In the dis
pussion OF the budget Mr.. Gladstone censured
the method OF stating the treasury accounts,
whereby he said deficiencies were concealed. He
pointed out that the expenditures had increased
during the year OF conservative government to
the amount OF fl,S60,O 600. He contended that
counting the interest on loans, interest on the
deficiency, the savings bank ana friendly So
eieties' accounts, which are not mentioned In the
budget tho irish educational charge, &C., no sur
plus existed.
Mr.. Gladstone also contended that the proposal
Tor reducing the public debt Is totally unreal and
visionary, that the experience Of thirty years has
shown that the DEBT had been increased by fresh
loans more than 1t mad been reduced by surpluses.
Yet Sir STAFFORD Northcote had anticipated that
the gurpluses during the next thirty years would
amount to els, 100000.
Mr. Gladstone said that "a party pridtng itself on
its veneration for the traditions OF It's past ought
not TO delude the country from the safe road in
lnancen
THE MINISTER IALIsTs' REPLY.
Sir STAFFORD Northcote, in reply 20 Mr.. Glad
stone, conceded That the figures OF the budget
might be SO taken as to show a deficiency, but
,said that the system he had adopted was one
OF many years. standing. he declared that the
interest on loans had been fully considered In
his estimates and that no vote on account Of the
savings banks was necessary Tor the
present year. Doubtless supplementary esti-
mates might more than absorb the
surplus but II he anticipated additional charges
he had full right to anticipate that the addition
will be balanced by other items OF revenue
He said tnat Mr.. Gladstone had himself formerly
approved the system OF reduction Of the DEBT by
axed appropriation.
MR.. loves OPINION.
Right Hon. Robert Lowe said that the budget
was unworthy Of the confidence OF the House,
shat Chancellor Nortncote had manipulated his
accounts ana produced a fictitious surplus.
He said the liberals had paid 100000
OF the public debt left surplus in the treas
ury, which the present government had sqnan-
dered; that vie deficit was a national calamity
and that there ought to be a surplus OF revenue
