Most respectfully, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
GLADSTONE AGAIN.

The Salisbury government, in the
House Of Commons last night, was con-
fronted with the first test question Of
the present session of Parliament, and
was defeated. The question was on an
amendment to the address from the
throne and directly involved the mat
ter of amellorating the condition of the
irish people. 1t expressed regret that
the Queens speech announced no
measures for the relief Of sufferers by
The existing depression in trade and
agriculture, particularly in regard to
affording facilities to farm laborers and
others for obtaining on fair terms allot-
ments of small land holdings. The de-
feat of the Government was brought
about by the Parnell forces voting al
most solidly with the Liberals. There
seems to be little doubt that the Con.
servatives will retire from power, for
this defeat, by vote of 800 10 $50, was
much more decisive and by a larger al
verse majority than that under which
the Gladstone Ministry resigned.
1t is to be noticed, also, that the
same party, the Home Rule party, was
the cause of both, and thus is it made
more evident than ever that Mr.. Glad,
stone and Mr.. Parnell have practically
come to an agreement in relation to
ireland Mr.. Gladstone is in favor of
home rule for that unfortunate coun,
try, and If he and Mr., Parnell can but
join hands in some scheme to attain
that result the new Gladstone ministry
will be stronger than any Liberal gov
crnment for many years, and the
troubles that now threaten the internal
peace of Great Britain be in great
measure relieved. If they cannot agree
then there will be an early dissolution
of Parliament and further appeals tC
the country.

ENSIGN EPPS.

Ensign Epps, at the battle OF Flanders,
sowed a seed OF glory and duty
That flowers and flames in height and beauty
Like crimson lily with heart of gold,
To-day when the wars of Client are old
And buried as deep as their dead command
cfs
Ensign Epps was the color bearer
No matter on which side, Philip or Earl;
Their cause was the shell-hls deed was the
pearl.
Scarce more than a lad, he had been a sharer
That DAY In the widest work of the field,
Howas wounded and spent, and the fight was
His comrades were slain or scattered host,
But stainless and scathless out of the strife
lie had carried his colors safer than life.
By the, rivers brink, without weapon or
shield,
lie taced the yictors. The thick heart-mist
He dashed from his eyes, and the silk he
Ere he held II aloft in the setting sun,
As proudly us If the fight was won.
And he smiled when they ordered him TO
yield.
Ensign EIps, with his broken blade,
Cut the SILK from the gilded staif
Which he poised like spear till the charge
was made,
And hurled at the leader with laugh.
Then round his breast, like the scarf Of love
lie tied the coors his heart above,
And plungt In his arInor into the tide
And there H. his dress of honor he died.
Where are the lessons your kinglings teach :
And what Is the text Of your proud com,
nlandersg
Out Of the centuries heroes reach
With the scroll of q deed, with the word Of a
OF one mans truth and of all mems glory,
Like Ensign Epps at the battle OF Flanders:

EX-SENATOR CHRIsTIANcY of Michi-
gan, once man of influence and dis
tinction, is said to be hard at work in
his old age endeavoring to retrieve the
mistakes that resulted in his downfall.
1t is weary road for one to travel at his
time of life, and about the only vista Of
relief it discloses, is the certainty that it
cannot be long one.
The Washington critic., 1886-01-27
THE PLUCKY GREEK.

Greece somewhat saucily says that if
Il powers sanction the union between
Bulgaria and Roumelia and do not give
her an increase of territory she will
fight. Persistently and pluckily also
she refuses to disarm at the request of
the powers. Even the peremptory de.
mand of England, backed up by a
strong fleet of British iron clads, does
not bring about the desired result.
The Greek demand for more terri
tory is aimed at Thessaly and Eprus,
which forms part of the Sultan's do
minions, and the Porte is in consequence
very much perturbed. 1t cries ont to
the powers that the strain is unbeara-
BILE. Turkey is compelled to raise and
maintain huge army at ruinous ex-
pense, and asks speedy settlement Of
the question.
Altogether, the outlook for peace in
Europe is not favorable, not even
favorable to the postponement of war
until next summer, to which time it
has been thought actual hostilities
might be deferred. Minister Cox, by
the way, in recent letter from Con-
stantinople, says 1--WE have put of
war-until March 1st next"

through whose active, and by many
supposed to be peculiar work. the
franchise for u surface road on Broad
way was obtained from the Board of
Aldermen, is the chief parsonage in II
litigation that has grown up about that
road. There were subscribed TO build
it the sum of $2,j00,000. The road
cost but $1,000 and the rolling stock
but 5000, 600, the latter sum being paid
from the proceeds of mortgage. Some
of the original subscribers want to
know where all. the money that was
paid in has gone to. Hence the pend
ing litigation. 1t is perhaps not sur
prising that Mr.. Sharp does not want to
give the desired information; it is no
less surprising perhaps that the mem
bers of the Board of Aldermen warmly
encourage him in his rcticence.
