Austrian authorities, is, for a man In his

none such ever came from premier be-

apology for statements made under the
influence OF an erroneous understanding as
to the avowed attitude of Austria on the
question of the Balkan provinces. While
it is not improbable that Austria has
wishes in the direction indicated in the
statements, yet her disavowal OF them
demands that she shall have the benefit of
the doubt, and credit for the good inten
tons expressed. Mr.. Gladstone is severely
criticized in several of the London papers
which term this act humiIiating and dam
aging, but most intelligent people will take
a different view of il. 1t is simply carry
ing the morality of private life into diplo-
macy, which has been regarded generally
by the high professors in that art as moth
ing more or less than Machiavelsianism.
Mr- Gladstone's diplomacy is of the open
kind. as distinguished from that of Bea~
consneld' who could not exist outside of
90 atmosphere of mystery. It is evidently
Mr.. Giadstone's idea that, as a rule, the |
Macbiavelsian system is a humbug when |
the nation has honorable motives ia view |
and he entertaIns only that species of
motives Gle has.expressed his opinions on
public matters so frequently and plainly |
10 print. that he is 10 no sense the enigma
his predecessor took pride in being, He
is willing and desirous of being perfectly
understood. His frank letter will only
serve hereafter to strengthen the general
In preston of the complete integrity of his
character which prevails. Notwithstanding
the tact that his political life has been

youth. he finds himself in his old age an

progress is believed to have resulted from
convictions.
