The Weekly Cable Letter.
CAUTIOUS AND PRUDENT,

LONDON, June N,-The Tory govern
ment is skillfully feeling its way
along. Even Lord Randolph Church
Ill has become prudent since his party
has had the responsibility Of govern
ment thrust upon 1t. The young ora
tor has exhibited surprising repressi-
bility. He has judiciously held both
his pen and his tongue. In view OF the
impatience of all Britons to know
what the policy Of the new govern
ment is to be, all this is remarkable.
The only minister of the new govern
ment who has, up to date, publicly adj
dressed his constituents is
MIR. ARTHUR JAMES BALFOUR,
the Tory member OF Parliament for
Hartford Borough, which he has
represented since 1877. Mr.. Balfour Is
about 81 years Of age aud is son-in-
law OF the Marquis OF Salisbury, the
new prime minister, whose private
secretary beyouDg man has long been.
The selection OF Balfour for the i'm
portaNt Office of chief secretary for
Ireland must be looked upon IS espe-
daily significant, because he knows
the ideas OF Lord Salisbury upon the
only msu who has ever
bSen permitted by the present
premier to sspesk for him, hence Mr..
Baliour'n speech has attracted pro-
found attention. Before his advent TO
power Lord Salisbury was a most per-
aistent advocate OF
OoEKCIoN IN IRELAND.
Tho very crisp which crowded bis
party into poror found him
actively engaged in opposing every
tendency toward Liberalism in Ire
land. Responsibility, however, has
apparently tempered Salisbury's
Views on TING important question, and
he evidently shriuks from
doing himself these things
for the abstinence from
the performance from which he cas-
tigated tho Gladstone ministry. To
use an American expression, Salisbury
feels the necessi!y OF dieting the
Tories down easy" on the questisn, and
Ralfour iR pushed forward IS the chief
instrument of the process. The most
striking instance In Mr.. Balfour'B adj
dress was the unqualified declaration
that he desires not lSsS than Mr.
Chamberlain to 300 Ireland governed
by equal laws with Eng lane
end 10 zee all coerciVe logisler
'tion against the Irish people
forever cease. The Radicals ana FAR
nellites who worked the Liberal MN
istry out Of power never stated theil
wishes on this subject moro tersely
and fully. Not satisfied with this bolC
statement, Baliour has just caused Il
be published for general information
q brochure on the Irish question. II
this the new Chief Secretary strongly
supports home rule for ireland, bu
continues that this home rule shal
extend to local interests only
His argument for this linn

Britain, that in 81 national Affairs til

brochure, namely: That in any neV
