GLADSTONE VERSUS GLADsToNE.-There
Giadstone's movements lately. Every shot
of his aimed at Beaconstield turns out to
be boomerang unskiilfully thrown, and
a. returns to plague the inventor" not to
say to hit him somewhere among the but
tons of his waistcoat. Whether a state.
ment or suggestion emanates from him
or from some other prominent Liberal, it
is refuted by circumstances without giving
the government any trouble whatever
This is the fate Of the objection made by
the Opposition to the action Of Beacons-
fields government in undertaking the war
against the Amer without consulting the
people, and summoning Parliament only
after operations had been carried SO far for
ward that it was impossible for Parliament
TO do anything but support them pecuni-
arily, or bring disgrace on themselves and
on England.
This same sort Of independent govern
mental action was practiced by the last
Gladstone administration in the Ashantee
war, which was not submitted to tn con-
sideration Of Parliament until after it had
been inaugu-atcd by the Premier and the
Cabinet. So much for the threatening
speech of Earl Granville. who, with the
conscious rectitude Of the Opposition,
warned the government that this indepen-
dent use Of its prerogative might be tried
once too often, and pass the endurance of
tie people. In word, all the spokes are
flying out Of the Gladstone wheel, and the
approach to temporizing tone which is
dscernible in a few of the Opposition jour
nails must ripen into a virtual surrender to
Beaconsfield, or the Liberal party must
ii nd itself high and dry by the progress of
the nation under the Premier's able leader
ship.
