MIR. GLADsTONE,s MEASURES.
English and Irish Gossip Concern.
ing Them.

LONDON, April 30.-Mr. Gladstone de-
MES the story that he has decided to join
the Roman Catholic church and that he had
requested the matter to be kept secret for
six months for political reasons.
1t is stated that MIR. John Morley, chief
secretary for Ireland, in a speech to be de-
liyered at Glasgow, will announce that the
government has decided to abandon that
feature of the home rule bill which excludes
Irish representatives from Westminster
Mr.. David DaYit member of parliament,
a Liberal. will resign his seat because he
objects to Mr.. Gladstone's home rule
measure.
At conference between Archbishop
Croke and the priests of his parish men,
orial was unanimously signed expressing
deep gratitude to Mr.. Gladstone for his past
services to Ireland, and lauding him for his
heroic fortitude and utter forgetfulness of
self and fearless devotion in initiating his
present Irish measures.
The Dublin Nation, the organ of the
lord mayor, denies that the Irish-American
dynamiters will continue to worry England
unless an absolute separation of Ireland
and Great Britain is attained. Mr.. Glad
stones measures, says the Nation, mean
peace to the Irish throughout the world.
At Belfast to-day two anti-home rule
meetings were held, at one of which 6, 600
persons were present. Both Liberals and
Conservatives attended at both meetings.
Resolutions condemning Mr.. Gladstone's
scheme and Mr.. Morley's ''threats'' were
unanimously adopted.

THE NEGROES FUTURE.

Like the fox in the fable, who suffered
the loss of his tail from the incisiveness of
a steel trap, and then went around among
the tribe of foxes endeavoring to persuade
them that it was fashionable for foxes to
wear short tails, FRED DOUGLASS writes
all article for the May number OF the North
American Review in which he takes the
position that amalgamation is the solution
of the problem of the negro'S future
Having been successful in getting white
wife himself, FRED attempts to induce his
colored brethren to believe that it is the
proper thing for them to follow his example,
He expresses all apprehension that in case
the two races remain distinct there will
arise antagonism in the future between
them. which will result just as it has been
with the Chinaman-by the negro being
eXpatriated or annhilated. He does not ap-
prehend that this danger to his race is so
much to be feared from political complica-
tions as he does from the fact that as the
negro applies himself to industrial pursuits
and acquires wealth and education and be-
comes over-prosperous he will excite the
jealous hatred of the white man. AS long
as the negro remains poor, ig-
norant creature, argues Mr. DoUG-
LASS, he is more a source of amuse-
ment to the white race than an object
of resentment. but that malignant resist
ance will be augmented as he approaches
the plane occupied by the white man. The
only remedy, according to the DOUGLASS
theory, is in the assimilation of the two
races, which he thinks will be more easy of
accomplishment as the negro advances in
wealth and education, and that within the
next 200 years the Americans will appear
las the Ph9necians now appear OH the
shores of the Shannon in the features of
blended race" DOUGLASS insists that it
will not do to judge the negro of the future
by the negro of to-day, who is only in the
twilight of his freedom, and has not vet
outgrown the marks of slavery, to
which he attributes the twisted limbs,
shattered feet. deformed body and distorted
features of the black man. His argument
that sleeping on dirt floor in a cabin. cold
on one side and warm on the other, forced
circulation of blood On one side and chilled
and retarded circulation on the other, has
been check to both his physical and men
tai progress, does not hold good in the light
of facts connected with the history of the
races and the white pioneers of the frontier
settlements. The Indians have slept on dirt
floors ali the year round for centuries. and
yet so f.r as physical development is con-
cerned they are among the highest
types of the human race. From the hardy
white pioneers of the frontier who lived in
log cabins, slept on the ground, and en-
dured all the hardships and privations that
are possible to be borne came the ANDREW
JAcKsoNs, the HENRY CLAYs, the ARA
HAM LINCoLNs and long list of Ameri-
can patriots and statesmen whose names are

FELINE BOARDING HOUSE.
Strange FOndness for Cats Exhibited
by n baltimore banker.


The contest over the will of Gustavus
Nicholson, Baltimore banker who died in
March, 1885, has brought to light some of
the old gentleman's queer characteristics,
which add interest to the case. His love
for cats was the most peculiar of all his &C.
centricities.
He kept a regular free boarding house or
asylum for cats. He had over dozen of
his own Tables and these were permitted
to invite their friends, so that hosts of the
feline species were entertained at the bank
ers home.
He took cats to bed with him and some
times matronly cat would provide nest
in his comfortable feather bed and there a
litter OF kittens would be born and raised.
The old gentleman had several cats sleep
ing with him. o5
The servants testified that at one time he
had six Maltese eats living in his room;
these were the favored ones. Six COM
moner cats were kept down in the kitchen.
He loved his cats and grieved when any
died. The counsel for the vii! contestants,
in his presentation of the case said that
the death of Columbus Nicholson, the
brother of Gustavus and the fact that there
had been for some months difficulty be-
tween them, seemed to weigh upon the
mind of Gustavus. and from a genial gen.
tleman he became addicted to drink, and
lived in little room of his big and elegant
house alone with his cats.

The Austrian Administrator

commenting on the absence from Washing
ton of Baron Won Schaefer. Austrian min
lister to this United States, and the infer
anceI deduced therefrom that Austria meant
to retaliate for the Kelley affair and remain
unrepresented until it should be adjusted,
says that the reason for the baron's absence
is simply to enjoy a desired furlough on
account of ill health. He will spend his
Vacation in Europe, and if his health per-
mits he will return to Washington after the
expiration of his furlough. Otherwise
successor will be appointed to continue the
representation of Austria at the American
capitol. The Journal says in conclusion
that the relations of Austria with the
United States are of the most cordial AZURE.

THE REPRESENTATIONS.

The registration has been remarkably
light up to this time. A registration of
only 5000 is a mighty small showing in
comparison with the increase in population
during the past year. Unless the new
voters have been holding back for to-day,
which is the last chance for registering, it
would indicate that there is good deal of
apathy in relation to the approaching
election. There are now only about 1S, 600
votes registered, when there ought to be
from $4,000 to 10000. Remember that to-
day is the last chance to register.
CONFEDERATE GOVERNMENT.
To the Editor of the Globe.
Who constituted JEFF DAVIS cabinet and
in what essential features did the Confederate
constitution differ from the constitution of
the United States? A. NV.
st. Paul, April 80.
The provisional Confederate government
established at Montgomery, Ala, in Feb
ruary, 1851, embraced the following eXecu-
tive officers: President JEFFERSON DA-
Wis of Mississippi; vice president. ALEX.
AMBER H. STEPHENS of Georgia.; secre-
tary of state, ROBERT TooAIBs of Georgia;
secretary of the treasury, G. G. MEMIN-
GER of South Carolina; secretary of
the navy, S. B. MALLORY of Florida;
secretary of war, l.. P. WALKER of Ala
bama; attorney general, JUDAH p. BEN
JAAiIN of Louisiana; postmaster general,
j. FL. REAGAN of Texas. The special fea-
lures of the Confederate constitution were
| that the presidency was limited to one term
of six years; the importation of slaves and
the laying of a protective tariff were pro-
hibited; congress was denied the power to
make appropriations for internal improve
ments, except that local duties conld be
laid for local improvements: cabinet Off
GERS had the right to seats on the floor of
the senate and could participate in de-
bates relating to their special departments;
a citizen of one state was denied the right
| to sue citizen of another state in the Con-
| federate courts, the state courts being given
| exclusive Jurisdiction in such cases. In
view of the recent contests between Presi-
dent CLEVELAND and the senate the most
interesting feature of the Confederate con-
stitution was that which provided that the
president had power to remove from office
for special cause only, and in all cases of
removal was required to report to
the senate his special reasons there
for. With the exception of the
points above enumerated, the Confederate
constitution in the main was copied after
the constitution of the United States, eX-
cept that the providence of GOD was dis
tinctly recognized in the preamble to the
Confederate constitution. In the conven-
ton which framed the Confederate consti-
tuition a motion to insert clause to prohibit
Sunday mails and the running of Sunday
trains was lost by only one vote. If this
motion had prevailed it would have been a
considerable embarrassment to the SUISSE

At ro-day's market there was moderate at
tendance and a quiet tone prevailed, a limited

FIRST SNAKES OF SPRING.
Georgia Opens the Serpent Season i'm

A young man and woman while taking
a boat ride oh canal near Augusta. Ga,
says the News of that place, happened to
approach portion of the bank which was
covered with mass of weeds. Instantly a
bunch of serpents began to writhe and hiss
about the prov of the boat.
All the serpents ran away as if fright
ened except one, which, in trying to es-
cape, writhed into the boat and landed in
the oarsman's lap. The young woman
screamed and jumped to the shore. The
young man, while trying to get rid of his
hideous companion. was bitten by it in the
thigh. He then jumped into the water and
struggled to the land. BY the aid Of anti
dotes his life was saved.
Seven snakes were afterward found near

ATHENS, April 3O.-Greece, in her reply
to the ultimatum of the powers ordering
her to disarm within eight days, points to
the fact that she has notified the powers
prior to the receipt of their ultimatum
that she had accepted the counsel
OF France, thus giving formal as
surance that she, yielding to the desire of
the powers, would not disturb the peace.
Consequently she will maintain her arma-
ments but will gradually reduce them.
Greece trusts, the answer adds, that the

garded as having no further object.
