LORD HARTINGrON's SPEECH.

AOhA nanAAN01ON . 0tEECd.
LONDON, Oct. 25.-At a liberal demonstration
in Manchester yesterday, Lord Harrington, re-
plying to the criticism upon the supposed atti-
tude of the liberals regarding foreign affairs,
and to the charge that q change in the govern
ment would unsettle present arrangements,
said the liberals aware that international
obligations must be respected a. long a. the
circumstances under which they were made re-
main unchanged, and we haze felt from the
beginning that one of the worst consequences
OF our mischlevous and misguided foreign
pollcy was that its consequences do not cease
Immediately with tenure of power of its au-
thors. We know that the engagements the gov
eminent has entered into must be respected,
and defy any man to put his hand on any
statement by any responsible leader of
the liberal party to the contrary.
we are asked what our policy will be. tits
Impossible to describe in its details the. policy
of the future under circumstances of which we
can know nothing certain, and of which we. can
only make a forecast. highlands policy should
not be an imitation of the policy of any other
power. There is no power in Europe except
England which has not known the horrors of
foreign invasion in the present century. It is
natural that the foreign policy of every other
state should be greatly Influenced by dread
Of recurrence of such disasters. It ia not to
be wondered that other states view with
suspicion the policy and every movement of
natlonalities for the disturbance of the bal.
ance Of power, and say that England, which is
to great extent free from apprehension
OF this kind, may see unmoved great deal
that passes IN Europe which naturally excites
the suspicion and apprehension of other ma
tons. But while part of our empire is a
source of all its power and weakness, and en-.
joys this remarkable, this exceptional security,
England - through her many colonial possess
slons and her Indian possessions more likely to
vital injury, to injury of a different character
but not less vital, than any other State. The
! conclusion which derive from these consider
atoms is that England is less fitted by her po-
sltlon and the nature of her resources than any
power for policy of military administration
The prime minister spoke the truth when he
said that the resources of England were
SO great that if she went to war
she would not have to consider whether she
could maintain was for one or for three cam
paigos. That 1 believe to be true, but it is
also true England is less prepared than any
other power for the first campaign, and no
minister ought to threaten war or 20 to war
unless he asks himself the question whether
the cause is obviously just in the eyes of the
whole people that they will be ready to make
those protracted sacrifices which would be ne
cessary for the prosecution of war for one or
tor three campaigns, or for five campaigns, nor
does 1t follow from these opinions that the
policy of England ought to be one of selfish
aud tlmld isolation ; but ought to be used for
the purpose OF forming and joining in com
bination Of the States of Europe for the pur-
pose OF preserving the peace and independence
e a1 E"'0pe expressing the aggressive
the weak against the strong, the free against
oppressors. This is the policy which has al
ways been in the main adopted by the liberal
party. 1t is the policy believe that will be
adopted by the liberal party. 1t has been the
policy OF the present government.
THE THUNDERER SPEAKS.
LONDON. Oct. 25.-rhe Times, in a leading
editorial article commenting on Lord Harting-
toms speech a. the liberal demonstration at
Ma yesterday, says; Lord Harting
ton cannot be congratulated upon his speech
Neither in its general character nor in its de-
tails was it equal to the occasion or to what
might be expected of the leader of a great
party at critical moment in the political his.
tory of the country. Lords Harrington and
Salisbury differ respecting certain broad facts,
and the country will not be on the side of the
liberal leader"

THE ROwERs
LONDON, Oct. 25.-Elliott, in reply to Han
lan's notification that be, Hanlan, is willing to
allow Elliott !s1O0 for expenses ana will row
him in Toronto, desires to say that should he
win the race with Boyd, we will accept Ham
lan's terms. Elliott says he was about for
warding articles to Boyd, but the news from
Toronto alters the position of affairs, as Hanlan
having refused TO compete in England forfeits
| the trophy. Elliott, therefore, hopes the
match with Boyd will be for 200 pounds side

OF the trophy TO sanction these arrangements.

ances.

ROBBED BY BR1aANDs.
PARIS, Oct. 25.-Barun Ring, the French rep
resentative in Roumelia, has been attacked
| and roboed by brigands in Macedonia.
GAMBETTA.
Gambetta has returned. An evening paper
states that Gambesta is opposed to reopening
the amnesty question and that he declines the
responsibility for the utterances of La Repub-
| Aqme Francaise, but whether Gambetta oppos-
| ed or supports the amnesty, the chamber of
| deputies will certainly reject it. The ministry
! will not need to make it q cabinet question.
| They have strengthened themselves and have
| treasured moderate men by the recent presecu-
| tons. 1t seems also unite settled that clause
seven of Jules Ferrys bill will not be made a
cabinet question:; thus the cabinet will not fail
on two questions which menaced it; though if
it lives through the coming session of the
cham bers, France will certainly show itself /.
country Of surprises.
