After Lord Randolph Churchill obtained 'ne Pie''-

he demanded from the Central Political Comini''ee'
who have always held the reins, increased lullsde

Lord Randolph Churchill left the House without
voting. Lord Randolph Churchill finds much sup

substitution for Sir Stafford Northcote with the
Marquis of Salisbury the sole leader OF the
party in the House of Lords.
EXCLUSION OF CATTLE
Having enprafted on the Government Cattle
Diseases bill the principal clauses of the Duke OF
Richmond's bill, it is expected that the agrlcui-
tural interest will compel the Government 10
assent in the Commons In such case it Is beheved
that all foreign live stock, except that from CANADA
and Denmark will be excluded. The hide ana
tallow trades will suffer serious injury by the
closing of foreign wbarves at Brkenhead, HUI
and Deptford The German newspapers are al
ready crying out that the Peers are supporting
protection under the guise Of sanitary "fads."
THE SURRENDER OF ToKAR.
The absence of slaughter on the fall OF Iokar
minimizcs the Importance Of the event Every
body is asking what viii be done with TIE British
expedition, and the Government has asked 1or
General Gordon's opinion. 1t is highly probable
in view of the withdrawal Of the garrison from
Khartoum. and of Osman Digma's old grudge
AGAINST General Gordon. that General Grahams
force will occupy his attention on the coast Thss
more easy ofaccomplishlnent if Osman Dgma ohers
q battle. As was expected the Tory outcry against
General Gordons proclamation has fallen nat
General Gordon's work in the SOudsn is too well
known to lay him open to reproach. Being ordered
10 evacuate the country, lie had no alternative but
10 permit domestic slavery. Moreover, his
antecedents rendered explanations on the
slavery question necessary; otherwise the success
Of his mission would be irnpered. 1t is notable
that General Gordon is organizing pure Soudanese
force for resisting any attacks by the Mahdi.
ENGLISH VIEW OF THE LAsKER RESOLUTION.
While there is no sympathy here With the hard
but characteristic handling which Prince Bismarck
has given Congress on the Lasler resolution 1t IS
dehcately hinted that little reflection would have
Suggested this difficulty. Parliamentary mstitu-
tlons. as we understand them, are wholly unknown
IN Germany, where Prince Bismarck Is a pure
sutccrat.
THE PRINCE OF wALEss SPEECH.
The Prince of Waless maiden speech in the House
ofLords last night created 1utter among the Tory
Peers. The Marquis of Salisbury intended to limit
the inquiry to dwellings in towns The Govern
ment doubtless having in mind certain recent ref
erences TO the Marquis of Sslisbury's cotton
property in Hatfield, extended tie inquiry to rural
populations. The Princes speech justified them by
describing the condition of his Norfolk peasantry
when he acquired SaHdringham.
THE DUKE OF LBOROUGH's PROMINENCE.
TheDuke of Marlborough is just now almost as
prominent as Lord Randolph Churchill, his con-
pection with Lady Aylesford being again before the
law courts. The Duke has neglected the subpoena
and Is peremptorily ordered to attend His
Grace has earned further notoriety by his pro-
posal TO sell the Blenheim picture gallery to the
German Government During bis marquisate be

Carlton.
