TILE LIRtRAL CONPRONISE.

The Discussions in the British Cabinet have
been readily healed. The majority headed by
LORD Spencer have insisted upon retaining four
provisions of the Crimes Act, and the minority
have carried their point in restricting the opera
ton of the act to one year. The clauses which
are reproduced relate to q change of venue,
trials by special juries, secret examinations and
summary proceedings for intimidation before
magistrates. These arc important provisions
which have enabled the Government to deal
successfully with criminals in Ireland and to
restore the authority of the Crown. If there be
renewal of Land League methods and sys-
tematic agitation be again followed by ntimida-
ton and criminal excuses, these legal measures

prvIyTSCtNCES or LINCOLN.

The American estimate of Abraham Lincoln
rs man and ruler grows constantly higher as
fine converts the struggle of the Civil War into
matter of history rather than OF political as
mutation. The memory of the War President
brightens in the fullest light that can be thrown
on that strong character and practical nina !;
and all that reveals him to new generation ana
recalls him to the elder one is eagerly wei
coined. The men who were in close official re-
lations with him and those who were his lhIi-
mate personal friends are rapidly joining the
great majority, aud not for long will their recol-
lections of the man and his time be available.
We are glad to announce that number oil
these friends and assOciates-many OF them
actors in the tragedy OF the war-have con-
scented to contribute to The TRIBUNE series
of papers embodying their "reminiscences OF Mr.
Lincoln's character and policy, and containing
n store of fresh anecdotes and striking MARIA
tiyes. The Hon. Charles \. Dana, ex- Assistant
Secretary of War; the Hon. Hugh McCulloch'
ex-Secrctary of the Treasury the Hon. Eiihu
3. Washburne; ex-senator wilkinson; the
Hon. Leonard SWEET (Mr Lincoln's former law
partner). Judge Lawrence Weldon and Cen
eral Mcclellan are among the writers who are
engaged in preparing this series. All the con-
tributors were chosen I'm consultation with
those who are in n position TO know who OF the
Presidents associates now living could speak OF
him with authority. The first paper of the
series will be by the Hon. Charles \. Dana. and
will appear in The TRIBUNE next Sunday.

The need of more efficient work in improv-
ing the dock facilities of the city must have
been apparent to the Mayor and the authorities
who yesterday inspected the water front. The
trouble has been in the composition of the
Dock Board. which for many years was used
merely to reward partisan friends. Under
Mayor Edison there was decided improvement
in the Board; but recent changes have again
lowered its character. new difficulty now
arises in the Constitutional amendment limit
ing the city debt, which interferes with the
further issue of bonds for such improvements.
A change in the law providing for its expendi-
lures and reorganization of the Board will be
a part of the work devolving on the next
Legislature.

I'm his inaugural address yesterday Governor
Currier of New Hampshire remarked that the
State had lost the distinctively agricultural
character Of its early history. While that is
true, New Hampshire has reason to be proud OF
the fact that under the fostering care of a pro-
tectiye tariff it has gained enormously as a
manufacturing State. In twenty years under
that policy it doubled the annual value OF its
manufactured products, and increased over
100 per cent the amount paid in wages to its
workmen. At the same time, its farms were
greatly enhanced in value. No wonder the
Governor "favors the continuance Of pro-
tective policy If the State had been COM
PEELED to rely upon agriculture it must neces-
sarily have fallen behind in competition with
the growing West. But the mills in furnishing

The Chicago gamblers do not show any fright
over Mayor Harrison's order requiring them to
close up their places of business Practically
no change was visible In their operations yes
terday. As this illegal business has been openly
conducted in Chicago during the four years
that Harrison has been Mayor, and no attempt
has been made to interfere with it, the gam
blers might naturally be expected to
regard the present order as mere matter of
buncombe. AS Harrison owes his success to
the frauds committed by this class OF men, 1t
Is doubtful if he will go far toward provoking
them. In fact the order itself is an open con-
fession by the Mayor, over his own signature,
that he has heretofore Intentionally. ignored
thelaws against gambling, which he had sworn
to enforce. For him it ID disgraceful matter,
