Northcote Attacks Gladstone.
In the House Of Commons this evening
Northcote attacked the whole policy OF the
government. He accused the government of
keeping back the facts Of the Madagascar af-
fairs. Gladstone, in reply, praised the work
ing of the land act and Earl Spencer's vigor-
ous government Of Ireland. In regard to
Madagascar, he declared that nothing had oc-
Cured to disturb the cordial relations existing
between England and France.
Gladstone Questioned About shaw.
A lively discussion was caused in the House
lsof Commons this afternoon, in regard to the
case of Shaw, British missionary in Madagas-
car, who is held in custody by the French. Mr..
Gladstone warmly declared that he had no
reason to believe that there had been any ex-
cess of Jurisdiction exercised by the French in
the arrest of Shaw. He said it was certainly
a serious matter, and it would be the absolute
duty OF the government to carefully watch
events in Madagascar He was unable to say
when or where the court-martial of Shaw
would be held. The discussion of the affair,
he sasd, was calculated to impair the good will
and smity existing between England and
France. (This remark was received with
cheers) Continuing, Gladstone said there
was no reason to presume that friendly and
civilized government would lack the elemen-
tary principles of justice towards impr soned
foreign subjects. He was not aware that Ad-
miral Pierre had thrice refused to allow Mrs.
Shaw to see her husband, Notwithstanding the
fact that she had been absent from him two
years He said he would inquire further into
the matter
Notice was given Of several questions TO be
submitted tomorrow in connection with the
case of Shaw.
