Political Gossip.

LONDON, April 6.-lhe Liberals in
London ara preparing for great dem
Onstration in honor OF Gladstone on his
return here.
The following political gossip from to-
days World is given for what II may he
worth: On the recommendation oi
Beaconsfeld the Queen will, on the oc-
oasion OF her anniversary, create the lm-
perial Order Of Merit Tor civilians only.
A large number OF civil servants and
others will be in the first batch Oi per
sons decorated. Among the titular Ia
vors that Lord BeaConshcld will bcstow
beiore quitting his office, BaronCt-
cies will bo conferred on Bonthwlck,
proprietor OF tho morning Post, and j.
NJ Levy, OF the Daily Telegraph.
1t is generally believed that Lord
Beaconsheld will only announce his
resignation in the first sitting oi the
new Parliament. On tie formation Ol
new cabinet Parliament will adjourn
for a fortnight 10 permit the reelection
OF ministers now holding seats IN the
House of Commons. II is rumored at
the Carleton Club that Bcaconsiicld will
advise the Queen to send Tor Gladstone.
Bcaconstield holds lytton's resignation
as Niceroy OF India, to take effect abso-
lutely IN case the elections are adverse
to the Government. Bcaconsticld might,
therefore, appoint his successor, but hc
probably will not, us the new ministry
would almost certainly cancel the ap-
poiutment. 1t is probable that Lord
Northbrookc will be asked TO - To
India for couple oi years to put mat
ters in order there.
