rha ministerial majority on the Caudahar resolu-
Z lion was rather larger than the Liberal whpS ex-
pected and largely exceeds the Conservative calcu
j lnfions. When Mr. Stanhope proposed his motion
Il cou,,ted on mum erous Liberal defsctions. The
rssult IS that only four Liberals abandoned the
Goyernraent, OF whom Mr.. Cowen. of Newcastle-on-
Z Tyne. and Sir Edward Watkin are Liberals in name
only. The other two are unimportant Many
Home Rulers supported the Government. The de-
bate showed striking preponderance OF debating
mower ON the Libsral side. Sir Charles Dhkes
spoech was lucid convincing and excellenty deliv-
sred /. it has much improved his Parliamentary
position. dis announcement OF General Skobelef's
recall from Asia destroyed an important part OF the
Tory case and threw the whole Tory line into con-
fusion. Lord Harrington made an equally good
;mpressicn. Mr.. Herbert Gladstone's maiden speech
delighted the house. 1t was modest and sensible
and in some parts brilliant. The opinion OF the
country is unquestionably with the Government by
ayast majority.
! WHAT is SAID OF THE TRANsyAAL PEACE.
The country accepts the Boer peace as fairly salts
factory; finding little fault with the terms although
sploring softly the necessity of making any peace
y with An unyanquished enemy. In quarter is there
any such explosion of indignation as the
.Jngoss forstold. In the House, the an
nouncement was received with cheers from the
! Liberals the Tories were silent The Tory press
criticisss the terms with moderation. The peace is
net decidedly pl,pppnlar except with the Army.
wAiiiiSd ron THE LAND Bill.
Irish affairs hive been without interest during the
= week. excepting Mr. DiIlons anticipated arrest
Expectation Is concentrated the introduction of
tho Land BILL which, Mr.. Gladstone now promises
for the 9TH of April The Liberals, though cheering
s Mr.. Gladstonss announcement, consider that
statement of it's provisions before Easter is tactical
mistake, giving the opposition in both the Irish and
Conservative ranks fortnight to organize resist
ance. Mr. Gladstone yielded his own objections un-
der Radical pressure. though this obliges him to
deliver in the Same week the two most important
speeches of the session.
LOOKING FOR THE BUDGET.
The budget is awaited with scarcely less interest
than the Land bin.
ANXIETY FOR THE PRINCE OF WALES.
The alarm respecting the visit Of the
Prince and Princess Of Wales to st.
Petersburg continues though little public
mention is made of it. 1t is known that warnings
covering explicit information from the st. Peters
burg police were received before and since their
departure General Mslkoff declines to answer for
their safety, though he gives assurance that every
prccaution win be taken.
EXAGGERATl0N--BY TELEGRAPH
The Philadelphia correspondent of The Times con-
Hnues to transmit extraordinary accounts of co.,
. lict between President Garfield end Senator
! sonkling The Pau Mall Gaseste says the Philadel-
phia man has completely lost his head.

& sxaminaton, disclosed Incredible ignorance of ee-
8 nsntsry facts in the Eastern question, though
alleging that he deserted the Liberals because he
nasppfoved Of Dir. Gladstone's Eastern policy. Mr..
