ENGLAND.

LONDON, November S.-The Teleqraph saws
Eoglishmen can hardly contemplate with
equanimity the probability that the next
president of the United States will be a
Democrat, as it is doubtful whether the
changes Democrats are certain to introduce
in the American tariff will be of advantage
to England; and it is also worthy of rec
election that he Democratic party was
always deeply dyed in autagonism to En-
land. SILL, whether the elections resulted
in Republican or Democratic victory, En-
glishmen may heartily wish their kinsmen
deliverance from machine politics, which
are fra ght with menace 10 the best interests
of America.

IDIoTIC.
The Findncier states that among the minor
effects of the Democratic gains in Tuesdays
election in the United States there have been
transactions in Confederate bonds of consid-
cradle amount, and during the past few days
they have increased in extent at firm quota
lions.
IN THE COMMONS.
In the Commons this afternoon Gladstone
Unexpectedly arose 10 reply TO attacks on
the closure resolution, and asked whether,
after seventeen nights of debate and seven
teen divisions, they could not dismiss the res
olution to oblivion, thus losing the fruit of
all their labor. There was no reason for
further continuance of the debate. The
alarm which had been expressed in this
House, tina the ultimate working of the reso-
luton might be unpleasant and calculated
to disturb the harmony of the counsel of
the nation, was unfounded, because being
only standing order, it could be repealed
at any moment, if desirable. He denied in
| positive manner that it would interfere
with freedom of speech. Its only intent and
effect would be to prevent small number
of members from subjecting the House 10 a
| yoke by uubrldIed license oil speech, and
from stopping legislation. He denied that
there was desire on the part of the gov
| erument TO apply gag or arbitrarily cur
tail debate, but the country would be unable
| TO reconcile the redundance of talk with
the paucity of action. He had made up his
| mind to instruct the House to do more and
| to talk less.
Debate then adjourned at o'clock.
The government perseveres in its inten-
ton to force division on the question and
settle the whole subject to- morrow night.

IN opposition to Northcote's amendment fol
the rejection of the closure rules, he having
said that the present procedure rules pre-
vented him dealing with local self-govern
ment for Ireland, about which he was more
profoundly anxious than any subject he
could name, has given rise to reports of ne
gotiations between the government and Irisf
leaders on the question of home rule.
