THE SCENE IN THE HOUSE.
| AS the hour for division approached the
excitement increased till. when Gladstone rose
to close the debate at Que clock, the house was
SO crowded that many membels were unable
spoken with such yigor. All his Old fire seemed
to have returned. There was not the slightest
oppositloQ. The latter seemed completely
cowed. No doubt Gladstone knew perfectly
well what the vote was going TO be. This added
sharpness to his attack.
GLADSToNEs BRILLIANT SPEECH
HIS deence OF the budget WAS mastery, of
course. but when it came to attack on the
con eiVatiNes for their tactics, the house WAS
reused INTO the greatest enthusiasm. The eli

THE CONSERVATIVES PREpIcAMENT.
What Will now be the result? The ministry
will resign, but the conservatives will find their
victory worse than a defeat. They must lind
money, arrange the Irish crimes act, and set
Tie with Russia. All this in the face Of large
Hoefat majority. The tax on tea which they
propose VIII be far more unpopular than the
tax OH beer and spirits. Therefore they prob

the liberals will not be sorry to traRsler all the
troubles 10 their shoulders.
