Mr. Gladstone to Osborne tomorrow for the

The Pail Mall Gazette. commenting on the
Marquis of Londonderry's appointment, says
that in 1878 he defeated the Liberal candidate
in county Down by coquetting with the Nation
alists and giving them to understand that he had
no objection to supporting movement favoring
a proposed inquiry into the merits Of the Irish
demand for home rule and that he favored
new land law. The Gazette says it looks upon
the appointment of such q man to the Irish vice
royalty by Conservative Premier as an act aus
picious for the Irish people.
The Times fears that the new Cabinet is not
altogether what could have been wished in the
Interests of steady government and harmonious
cooperation 1t says: ''Sir Michael Hicks
Beach must show more force OF character and
steadiness OF purpose than he has shown of late
in order to grapple successful with the Irish
xprobietn. It would have been better both for his
party and himself if it had been possible to al
low time for Lord Randolph Churchill's position
to consolidate and mature He will have diff
ficult and arduous part to play, and will encoun-
ter much jealousy. His promotion, however,
gives rise to a new hope of vigorous era of Con-
servatism A serious question will be, how to
get on with the Unionists"
The Dublin United Ireland to- day SAYS "The
truce with the landlords is shattered, but the
Irish people have not the least intention to es-
TRANCE the English masses. It wocl3 be impos-
sible to produce a more eloquent example OF the
policy of ramming English rule down Irish
throats than is afforded in the Marquis of Sails
burys appointment as Irish Viceroy of the Mar
qnis of Londonderry, inheriting, as he does. the
blood and the name of the cutthroat and hldeous
Castlereagh."
The Dublin Freeman's Journal says the ap-
pointment of Lord Londonderry to be Viceroy of
Ireland, and of Sir Michael Hicks Beach to be
chief Secretary, is ominous of coercion Irish
men must be prepared for this The Loyalist
press is delighted over the appointment of Lord
Londonderry to the lord-lieutenancy.
