GLADsToNE's WAR wHOoP.
The speech of Mr.. Gladstone in the
house vi commons on Monday, upon q
vote OF credit of $55, 900, 600, was received
with profound interest throughout
Europe and published in full in all the
newspapers. IL has dispelled any idea
entertained heretofore that England
will make concessions to Russia. The
general opinion OF the press is that the
speech mai es war certain. The news
probable alliances the respective
belligerents may form in the event of
war. IL is now thought to be so near at
band that it cannot be confined TO Asia,
but will be extended to Europe.
THE TIMES TALKS.
The Times, in its review of recent
past actions of Russia, says the spirit
thus revealed gives little hope that
England's last overrnres will receive
satisfactory reply. The refusal to treat
upon that basis will involve a diplo.
matte rupture which is, but little re-
moved from actual war.
AN IMPORTANT MEMORANDUM.
1t is staGed that the government has
received an important memorandum
from Lord Dufferin, Viceroy of India,
upon the views of the Indian govern
mept upon the action of Russia since
the beginning OF The existing. contro.
versy over the definitive boundary of
Russia and Afghanistan.
The Standard, referring to the occn-
patton OF Marnehak by the Russians, In
an editorial, says: "Fhere cen be no
question ol Afghan provOoation in this
instance. The occupation OF Marnehak
stand out boldly and undisguisedly
as clear invasion of the
territory of Afghanistan, without
even the pretense OF military necessity
Assuming that the news CT the occupa-
ton OF Marnechak is correct, there is lit
tie room 10 doubt that it cssn be consid-
+. cred any thing else than deliberate act
of aggression, and this acf of aggression
has the appearance OF being specially
chosen ia order that there may be no
possibility of further mistake. 1t Is a
deliberate breach OF solemn covenant,
fragrant violation OF Russia's prom
ises and assurances.
THE LAST HOPE OF PEACE DIsPELLED.
The Russian advance south of Penj-
deb and the occupation of Marnehak is
regarded in parliamentary circles as
dispelling the last hope of peace and as
the precursor of Russian attack upon
Herat.
The Channel fleet is coming from Ire
land.

cussed the question OF the removal Of
