designations and Appointments.
LONDON, March 27.-Speclal to the Globe:
The cabinet meeting held yesterday, after
nearly O fortnight's interval, leaves the situa.
ton essentially unchanged. The interval has
been employed in strenuous eff orts 70 mitigate
the opposition OF Chamberlain aid Trevelysn.
to Gladstone's Irish scheme. These efforts
have resulted In q total failure. Liberal plrty
organs, abandoning the attempt to deny or
conceal the division In their party, admitted
that there was no hope Of bringing round
either Of the retiring ministers or preventing
either's resignation, and this afternoon MI.
Joseph Chamberlain, president of the local
government beard, AID Mr.. G.. O.. Trevelyau,
Gladstone's cabinet, and the Queen has ac-
cepted the designations Of both gentlemen.
Right Hon. James Stansfeld, Radical member
Of Parliament for Halifax, has been appointed
president OF the local government in the place
Of Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain. Mr.. Stansheld
occupied the came Office once before, but with
out a seat In the cabinet, resigniug In 1874.
The Earl Of Dalhouise has been appointed TO
succeed Mr.. q. p. Trevelyan as secretary for
Scotland. He will not. however, have a seat
In the cabinet. 1t 10 understood that Glad
stone yesterday laid before his colleagues,
Chamberlain and Trevlyan included, q
proposal. R.ther more than the
usual pains were taken TO prevent
disclosures, but o strong impression prevails
that the motion will prove even broader than
has been supposed. The Times believes that
he will propose a statutory parliament in Dub
lin, placed In position OF practical independ-
enc1, with a wide range OF Legislative authori-
ty, and entire control over home administra-
ton, including Law aud police. The scheme
~ieserves 10 the imperial government little
more than command OF the armed forces of
the crown. This account tsllies with the
known views Of men with whom Gladstone
has chiefly consulted, but afirms nothing but
a veto power which the Parnellites regard as
vital. Any scheme which limits the jurisdic
ton OF the Irish parliament, or prohibits to
Ireland any Of those powers which the Ameri-
can constitution prohibits to the states will be
accepted by the Parnellites as an installment
only. Yet Gladstone AID Morley have
broadened their scheme expressly In
order to relieve the imperial par
Iiament from Irish obstruction. Toe oppo-
sition TO the other branches OF Gladstone's
project involving q loan for buying cut land
lor0s, has 30 steadily increased mat he has
been strongly urged TO abandon IL and propose
home rule IN it's naked simplicity. LsbJuchere
again leads on In this movement, which WAS
started In order to secure precedence for
he Insn Parliament over land purchase,
but has now become q demand for home rule
only. The Standard retorts that an undis-
gulsed proposal TO place landlords at the
mercy OF u tenant Legislature would leave
Gladstone almost alone In the lobby with the
IsraeliIes. Dir James Card has unw!ltlngly
supplied some Ammunition ~ landlord hAters
like Lao.ucnere. His letter to the 1imss
seemed to admit thar a large portion OF the
existing nominal rent on small holdings Is
practically irrecoveraole by anybody. linen
why compensate owDers!" ask The lrlsh. Bat
Sir James Cards figures are challenged, his
knowledge Is tmpugned, and his assumption
that certain rents are irrecoverable Is denied.
shaw LIE Fefevre, among the strongest Eaglish
home rulers, publishes two letters, which tend
strongly TO discredit Sir James Card. 81 we
have the spectacle OF partisaDs on each side
urging on lin, Q fatal to their own case. Glad
/ stone Ia the meantime adheres to bis original
purpose. IL he has made any concession IL
refers only to the order In which his proposals
ehall be laid before Parliament. His AL
nouncement yesterday that he Intends TO in
troduc- q bill for the future government of
Ireland is II nterprettd TO mean that land pur.
chase Is postponed. But I believe this Is or
roDeous, II only because 1t would involve
Morley's retirement. Gladstone has re-
solved 10 ftand or fall on the whole
scheme. He has preferred to part
with his colleagues rather than modify 1t.
1t is not likely he will mutilate 1t In Difference
To hostility, which he still fully believes he can
be overcome. The faithful spt ctator tells him
plumply that home rule without purchase
would mean the turning over OF all the moral
responsibilities OF Eoglaud to loyal Ireland.
The Radical revolt which Lsbouchere heads
will not 90 TO the point OF voting against ex-
propriatioL. Bright, who was industricusly
represented as having been talked over by
Gladstone, remains an opponent OF tbe whole
scheme. The Irish Loval and Patriotic union
publishes today the frst portion OF tts answer
TO GladstOne's request for information res
pecting the condition OF ireland. 1t aims TO
show tn" supremacy Of the National league,
whose committees act as tribunals, exercise

decisions, pass sentences, enforce DEGREES, by
boycotting, cancel contracts. award damages,
and arbitrarily limit the liberties and private
rights OF loyal citizens. Over a hundred cases
supported by testimony are cited. The Irish
question C .me near being settled by a side
