New York, l5.-The Worlds cable
letter contains the following points:
Gladstone, who had long interview last
night with Lord Granville and Lord
Csrlingsord, his lieptenants in the lords,
gave them liberty to say that be will not
yield hairs breadth in this struggle Of
the land bill, aud that he will seize the
opportunity Of calling the attention of
the country TO the fact that the work Of
the entire session of vast msjority Of
the peoples representatives can be de-
troyed in few hours.
The Duke CT Argyle is denounced by
the radical press as the instigstor Of the
Obstructive policy of the lords, and il
certainly does seem that as if to prepare
himself for marry ing into a tory family,
he had done his best to break the minis
try which be had deserted. It is said,
indeed that the duke is so incensed
TO the Marquis Of Lorne, recommending
him to resign the governor generalship of
Canada, so that the house OF Argyle may
not be beholden in any respect to the
ministry Of the day.
on-AVon next week.
The Duke of Edinburgh will visit the
new Cunsrd steamer SerUtG on August
23d.
London, IA james Edwin Therold
Rogers, liberal member OF Parliament
for Southwark, sailed for the United
States.
The Observer says: We understand
yesterday the cabinet council decided
practically to insist on the land bill as it
finally passed the Commons, and in the
event of the lords remaining obdurate,
Parliament will be summoned again in
November, when the bill would be REIN
troducd, but there is no disposition to
then force on the House Of Lords bill
more distasteful to them than the present
one.
London, 15.-Ministers are determined
to allow the peers lOophole for escape
from the menscing dilemma in which
they are placed in reference to the land
bill. On one or two minor points con-
cessions will be made SO as to afford
the peers an opportunity for timely re-
tirement under cover of partial success.
The Earl of Pembroke writes to the
Times protesting against the cry being
raised that the amendments Of the lords
to the land bill are an attack on the prin-
ciple Of the bill. This is not true in re-
gard to 8 single amendment except that
dealing with the termination of existing
leases and that amendment only restores
the bill to the shape it entered the Com
mons. The obstinate injustice Of gov
eminent towards landlords, he says, is
the sole cause of the deadlock.
The Times says the temperate judg-
ment Of rational men is unanimous that
the difference between the two houses
ought to be compromised, nor is there the
slightest reason to believe that a fair,
moderate and practical arrangement is
out Of the question.
The Nei0s says il Gladstone resigns he
would make the peers our masters. If
the vote Of q majority Of the hereditary
legislators could at any moment overbear
the decision Of the country, parliamentary
government would be farce. The same
may be said Of the dissolution of Parlis-
ment and 8 general election. The NeWs
discredits the idea of conference be-
tween the two houses.
