Policy of the Conservatives in Ireland.
LONDON, June 27th.-The only Minister
of the new Government who has, up TO
date, publicly addressed his constituents is
Ralfour, Chief Secretary for Ireland, who is
sonin-law Of Salisbury, and the only
man that has ever been permitted by the
present Premier to speak for him. His
address has attracted profound attention.
Before his advent to power, Salisbury vas
a most persistent advocate of coercion in
Ireland. esponsibiity, however, has APP
parently tempered his views, and he feels
themccessity OF letting the Tories down
easy The striking uttcrance in BalfoUr's
speech Is The unqualified declaration that
he desires NOS less thau Chamberlain 70 see
Ireland governed by equal laws with
England, and to see all exceptional legiSla-
ton against TIE Irish people forever abpl-
ishcl. The new Chief Secretary strongly
supports home rule for Ireland, but CON
tends that this home rule shall extend to
local interes.s only. il must be admitted a
remarkable change Of attitude III ConsarVa-
tive feeling toward Ireland is indicated.
IN fact. all reports from COnseTvate clubs
aud political circles show that Lord Ran
GOiFh Churchill. though Ostensibiy eXhiD-
iUag a surprising responsibility, has become
the prophet of the Tory party on the Irish
question. His policy. which from all pres
cHt appearances viii! prevail with the pres
ent Government, favors a gradual replace
m@ut of the yice-Tcgal Government at
Dublin Castle by the formation Of an
elective central board. TO sit in Dublin and
possess the power Of dealing with all
internal questions of Government.
Boroughs That VIII be Contested.
L.oyDoX. June 27th.-The interest for the
next week will center on the tiny pocket
borough of Woodstock where, with one
single exception, the only sharp contest
against the new Ministry is TO be waged
The borough has 1,t29 voters. Lord Ran
| dolph Churchill had 5l2 votes, and a weak
| Liberal candidate 452 votes, at the last cleo
| ton, leaving nearly ohe-sixth of the whole
vote unpoled The register is said to show
! few changes The Liberals have selected a
; bright likeable young London barrister and
! journalist. Corrie Grant to make the fight
| against Lord Randolph, and the greatest
/ possible aid from the Liberal organ cation
! will be given to him. The report that the
! Duke OF Marlborough, who is at his Blen-
| helm seat, is quietly using his influence
! against his brother if true, would be inn
pOrtant. for many of the electors are his
! tenants. The election will be held July 4th.
! The brothers are on bad terms for reasons
/ growing out of the Dukes scandals. The
| OtneT contest IS 10 DC At lduutSStOl, where
/ Webster is working tooth and nail for an
I election, which will make him Attorney
/ General The chances here are about even.
! No other of the Ministers is TO opposed.

VALENCIA. June 27th.-Dr. Ferran con-
siders that the utility of incubation with
| microbe vaccination is now proved. His
! opinion, however, is shared only by local
! physicians. Several independent author
tiles speak in harsh and disparaging terms
OF microbe vaccination and its champion.
/ His motives are even viewed with suspi-
/ cion This IS probably due to the fact that
/ in number indeed, in a majority, Of eases
he has accepted fees for incubation

LoxpoY. June 27tlf-Rev Mr.. Spurgeon
