Some Enlightenment from the Express.

When the Cabinet went out Immediately after
the adjournment of the Legislature Of 1880 it
pleased the King to appoint Messrs. Moreno, Bush,
Walker and Davidson TO a new Cabinet In the
evening of that day the members of the new Cab
met met and severaiy accepted the Office to which
the King had appointed them, with thanks to the
King for the great honor he had conferred upon
them.
Just here let us turn back and see the reasons
why the King had confidence in the Wilder
Ministry. In their conduct of the Government it
is not difficult to the reason Of their being dis
missed. The members Of this Cabinet showed by
their reports to the Legislature they we're divided
and their conduct of the Government was wrong
In the biennial report OF .ho previous period Of
CARDS the other members of the Cabinet, and, said
the Minister Of Finance (S X. K)., when that lit
tie haoe saw that his opinion, to report independ
emily to the Legislature, did not conform TO the
law, only then did he apologize and unite his
port with mine-proud little haOle indeed is this.
These words were repeatedly heard by the Hon.
CRADLES Of the last Legislature. We viii not speak
at length concerning the time the House was
in session, nasmuch AZ the record of the deeds of
the Ministry was made in the House. In matters
of great importance and in little things their OPP
position to each other was always apparent. On
the appropriation pertaining to the Royal
dd ss other sss Mnssr Of
voted in favor Of the Bill 10 permit the importa-
ton of opium into this place, and his colleagues
were opposed to 1t, 40 also with regard to the
China steamship Line, notwithstanding il was
won by man and at times the House turned
in favor OF the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Thus
did the Ministry act III Inockery in the face Of
the people until tho time when the Legislature adj
journed. Smith Of the nobes said to one of his
fellow mobiles: /" an, ashamed of this Ministry;
it was never so with former Cabinets OF this Gov
ernment" As though he had lost all confidence
| in them account of these strange PROCEEDINGS.
1t was commonly reported previous to the sitting
of the Legislature that the King had no confidence
in his Ministry but 1t was not clearly understood
| by outsiders. But when the reports of the Min
listers seen and their speeches We're heard, al
SO their opposition to each other, then those who
had eyes and those who heard, understood clearly
| that there was reasons and good reason, why the
King should have no confidence in his Ministry.
On Sunday, August 10Th, 1890, after meeting
| Of the members Of the new Cabinet the 18th,
| the Commissioners of England, America and
Walker, member of the new Cabinet, concerning
Moreno. After they had expressed themselves with
angry words, Mr.. Walker shrunk hack through
| fear, also with Mr.. Davidson, and wrote to the
| King resigning their Offices. II rumored that
the grounds lof the COMMISSIONER opposition To
Moreno were-on the part Of the English Com
| missioner ON account OF book written by Moreno
| while he was Secretary for = certain Chief IN
| India aud the American Minister he sought oc-
| casion for q SANDER IA TO the untruthfulness ol
| Mr. Moreno's word to him about his intimacy with
| Mr.. Garfield and Governor Foster, Of Ohio; this
French Commissioner was OF the Same mind a.
the others without amy special reason.
Al this time certain missionary children with
certain merchant haoes were exciting meetings Of
treasonabe nature against the King, aasisted
moreover BY certain supreme judge u mlAsion-
9ry Ill. On account Vt tbs PAle taken by the
Fo,eign Representatives the little ha0les were
firmly united to stir up the meetings hat wers
