The Fall of a Ministry.

The fall of the Gladstone Minis
try is no doubt due to complica-
ton of causes, some Of which must
remain undiscerned by those not in
timately acquainted with British
politics. There are some causes,
however, which are quite apparent.
One of these arises from the English
methods of raising funds for public
uses, so very different from our own.
If fifty or sixty million dollars are
needed to carry on a small war, or
begin preparations for large one,
the money may be raised either by
adding to the income tax, or by in
creasing the tax on spirits and beer
The former affects the rich, the lat
ter the poor, and in its effort to APP
ply these methods, the Ministry an
lagonized both classes. The landed
aristocrat and the merchant were
not favorable to a further pairing of
their profits, and the laborer resent
ed as an invasion of liberty a propos-
al to raise the price of drinks. These
may seem trivial matters, yet great
revolutions have often been produced
by small things. Probably the
"Stamp Act" bore very lightly in
reality on the mass of our forefath
ers, but it cost England almost the
whole continent of North America.
In April, 1850, after most bril-
liant campaign against the "Jingo-
ism" of DisraeIi's Administration,
Mr.. Gladstone came into power with
a majority of nearly one hundred in
Parliament. But by reason of his
succession to Beacons6eld, Mr.. Glad
stone fell heir to veritable "Pan-
dora's box" a legacy of small wars
and almost endless foreign compli-
cations. In his attempt to clear
them away, he found himself con
fronted by the very opposition he
himself had created to foreign wars
and buccaneering exploits. On the
one hand, the national prestige must
be maintained, even at some sacri-
flee of justice, until matters could
be settled. On the other hand were
his own party, educated by himself
to deplore foreign war and the ex-
penSe attending it. The Conserva-
tives, of course, were satisfied with
nothing he did or could have done,
as is usual with an Opposition out
of power. In trying to steer be-
tween the two he wrecked his Min
istry. Crushed between the upper
and neither millstones, he is really a
victim to the Inheritance Of the re-
suits of Beaconsheld's reckless but
dashing policy of foreign conquest.
If he had abandoned Egypt, and of
fered no resistance to Russian ope-
rations in Central Asia so long as
they did not menace India, he would
have saved millions to the taxpayers,
and on that ground have appealed
successfully for their support. But,
attempting to be warlike, he was not
bold and clustering enough. Being
in a quarrel, he should no longer
have been q man of peace, but have
precipitated the whole weight of
the British Empire upon its foes.
But though the Conservatives
have overthrow the Gladstone Min
istry, their victory does not bring
them unmixed Joy. If they take
Office now they must plunge at once
into the Afghan and Egyptian com
plications. Confronted with this,
they realize clearly that it is easy Il

The profoundest themes Of morals,
science, philosophy and statesman
ship are now being learnedly eluci-
dated by the young college graduates
of the land. Say what you will
about these young orators and essay
lists, the performances of some of
them are wonderfully original and
brainy, affording fresh and instruc-
tive thought for even the reputcd
old wise-heads. The average college
or high-school graduates of our day
and generation are not objects of
ridicule that some superficial wise
acres would deem them. They are
the "coming men" of the very near
future, aud their thoughtful elders
should bow to them accordingly.

The UNICORN NOT A MYTH.

At the Asiatic Society of Japan's
late meeting, a Mr.. F. w. Eastlake
read apaper on that mythical animal,
the Kirin or KILN or Unicorn, the
last existing specimen of which in
China was brought to Confucius in
the year $50 B. C. This is not the
Biblical unicorn-the animal whose
name is so translated in the Bible
being the Caucasian wild ox-but
the unicorn which we were taught in
our youth never existed, with the
body of a deer and one horn in the
middle of his forehead. One Lode
wiki Hartmann saw two young uni
corns at Mecca in the fifteenth GEN.
tury, and in 1920 most truthful
persons in Nepaul told Capt. Lotter
that they had often seen a unicorn.
Mr.. Eastlake accordingly concludes
that the one-horned, deer-like quad
ruped, known as the unicorn, now
extinct, did once inhabit the high
plains of Central Asia, and perhaps
also certain parts of Central and
Southern Africa. -.Shunghai Celes-

ATTACHMENT TO NEWSPAPERS

The strong attachment of sub
scribers to well-conducted news
paper is fully confirmed by publish
ers. "Stop my paper!" words of
dread to beginners in business, lose
their terror after paper has been
established for term of years. So
long as paper pursues a just,
honorable, and judicious course,
meeting the want of it's customer,
in all respects, the ties of friend
ship between the subscriber and the
paper are as hard to break an out
side third party as the link which
binds old friends in business or
social life. Occasional defects and
errors in a newspaper are overlooked
by those who have become attached
to it through its perusal for years.

A SHOWER OE ROCKS.

Mr.. r. T. Dunlop, of Lancaster,
S. c., has two negroes living on his
plantation whose house has lately
been showered with rocks from the
skies. This wonderful phenomenon
of rocks has been going on in that
locality for more than ten days, and
people for miles around gather there
to witness it. The rocks vary in
size from an egg to a cocoanut. A
popularity about them is that they
have fallen upon several persons
without giving any hurt or pain. A
number of white men who hooted at
the idea have visited the place and
are convinced of the truth of the
story. A number of gentlemen rode
out to witness the phenomenon.
They were not there long before q
sound on the shingles notified them
that rock had fallen. 1t was pick
ed up and found to be quite hot. 1t
resembled flint and had something
on it which resembled soot.-Lal-

They sometimes become dissatisfied

absence of the familia sheet at their
