question of social order, the question of
land reform and the question of self-roy-
ernment. The desire for self-government,
he says, must necessarily be subject to the
law OF imperial unity. The Government
hopes TO find a safer and more effectual
method than coercion as a remedy for
social troubles.
The Daily Ne,cs interprets the manifesto
to mean that Mr.. Gladstone intends to deal
with the Irish questions in the order in
which he has mentioned them 1t thinks
that the scheme will secure the unanimous
support of the Liberals, while the Consery-
atiyes cannot, with decency, oppose. and
Will almost certainly support the measures
Tor the establishment of order and the re-
torn OF the land law. TIE Ne1rs adds that
II MI. Parnell really has the welfare of his
country at heart, he will have an opportu-
nifty to evlnce his patriotism but ii he oh
structs the completion of Mr.. Gladstone's
scheme, Parliament will turn ready ear
TO the proposal of coercive measures.
MI: John Morley's opponent in the re-
cent Parliamentary election at Newcastle is
preparing to contest the seat at the coming
reelection.
Mr.. Chamberlain, in his election address
says he hopes to devote his attention to the
land question. He is willing to support
any just and reasonable proposal TO settle
the Irish question in accordance with the
desires Of the people, subject TO the suprem-
acy of the Crown in Ireland and the inteo-
rity of the empire.
Archbishop Walsh, in an add1ess at Dub
lin last evening, said he was personally un-
acquainted with MIR. Morley, the new Chief
Secretary for Ireland, but appreciated the
Kindly spirit which inspired his speeches
and writings from purely political aspect
" hIlQ Welcoming hin, o+ b.,,
under other circumstances Mr.. Morlev's
views on matters pertaining to the Church
merit an emphatic protest from every Irish
man who values the faith of Catholic neo-
pie.

Mr.. Gladstone, will appoint a successor to
Lord Carnarvon, Lord Lieutenant of Ire

PRESS COMMENTS ON THE CABINET.
LONDON, February 4th.-In COMMENTING
on Gladstone's Cabinet the Times remarks:
The Government cannot, as a whole. be
described as strong one.
The Ddity AeUS SAYS: The standing
aside OF Lord Harrington is matter of re-
gret that at no distant day will be removed:
but with this single exception, both friends
and foes Will admit that Gladstone. in an
ticipation of the herculean task he has ap-
pointed for himself, is happy in starting
with strong Ministry
The Standard says: 1t is not an ideal
Ministry, as would have contended Glad
stone seventeen years ago, but, on the
whole, 1t is as efficient combination as we
have right to expect under the circum-
stances. In the absence of those states
men who constituted the strength of Glad
stones former administration, and secured
for HIM the confidence of moderate, indie
pendent men, a really powerful Govern
ment was next to impossible: but 1t will
hardly be denied that Gladstone has made
the best of bad situation
The Pal MaH Gazette says There is only
one distinctly bad appointment and an
other is debatably bad. The bad one is
Granville's. and the debatable one Ripon's
but, on the whole, Gladstone has done
much better than we expected.
