LONDON. June 29.-Lord Derby made 1T per-
fecty clear in the House Of Lords Monday night that
Great Britain does not intend interfere in any quarrel
between Turkey and her suzeran States, and therefore
prospect of immediate outbreak OF war between
Turkey and Seryia has much less concern Tor us th IL
otherwise would have had But Lord Derby declined 20
commit himself any degree to the course to De puf-
sued in the event of intervention OF any other out
side power. lie enuncated the policy OF wait
Ing TO see how the present Sultan carried out his profess
sons and how far he viii improve the internal condition
of the country Lord Derby thinks IL b too early 20 state
what expected from new reign but he does NOT
hesitate say that the deposition OF the late sultan was
an act thoroughly justified by the of great pub
lie danger and by the proved impossbty OF hoping lof
any reform in the administration In the late reign
Joseph Chamberlain has been returned unopposed
for Birmingham and. but for attack OF gout would
have taken his the House of Commons last hsht
as one OF the colleagues of Mr'Bnght. lie was, now
ever wen enough 10 address immense meeting ol HIS
constituents at Birmingham on the day OF his election
If this meeting IL fair example OF what is to come
Mr.. Chamberlains success Is quite assured IL was
dcnsely crowded enthusiastic and united. Indeed Mr.
Chamberlain the locality Is concerned, goes 70
Parliament with the good wishes OF every wing OF the
Liberal party in the midland capital The speech ne
made on Tuesday night has attracted good deai oI
attention The Times thought worthy OF extended
is an indication Of the feeling aroused by Mr. Chamber
lains entrance 10 Parliament, and OF the Importance OF
his utteranccs. Mr. Bright who was unable TO be pres
en wrote expressing his satisfaction at the selection o
Mr. Chamberlain in Mr.. DiXon's place, and hope that
Mr. Chamberlain may find himself strong for the new
field Of duty on which he is about TO enter The speech
of the newly-elccted member was in many re-
snecis remarkable II displays n healthy vgor which
the Liberalism Of the present hour sadly lacks
and it betokcus the uncOmpromihns character
Of The man and Of the political creed he has gone to
Parliament cspcusc lie not content to believe he
said that the Liberal programme was destined to speedy
exhaustion and II he could do nothing else he could
carry to another place the lessons which he had been
taught in Birmingham Of fidelity to the principles OF
liberalism and hostility to the compromises by when
they were sometimes betrayed. This sentiment was
loudly cleercd by the meeting but it has been received
by the metropolitan press with disayor But the whoe
gist of Mr.. CLamblrJns creed lies rs he expressed
himself in single sentence lie trusted the people and
had firm confidence in their good sense and patriotism
and I'm celebrating this belief De asked II The greatest
happiness Of The greatest number was the cMti
end Of government then lie thought the people
best understood tn r affairs and were likely best to
sccur, their highest interests. He quoted the diclm Of
Burke that when the people have feeling 1t is com
monty m ;ho right direction, aud he added that the mis-
takes o. the people ice, dangerous To the common
wealth and more easily rcmodicd, than the mistakes of
the minority ia tie pryles classes. There i radical
ring about this which quite unaccustomed TO nov"
MI Chamberlain is not for merely local fame. II
ne does become popular with the House he Wil make
himself heard there indeed he already has done ln ihr
country Tor to-day three of the principal metropolitan
uatrrs have greeted him with fun column leader. The
Diy Sers is The ptiou hcingat present silent The

reception by he Iim,S is decidedly cold uy NE Ids-
