Rumors concerning.CIadstone's irish
Land Bill.
Thirteen Persons Perish by an Explo-

LONDON, March 31.--RepoTts from all quarters
of Ireland which have been sent to Mr.. Gladstone
indicate that the people are in state OF feversh
expectation, and that the failure OF the nome rule
policy will lead to an outburst of violence.
RuinOrs were rife in the lObbies OF the House OF
Commons last evening that there would be further
designations from the cabinet The Tories calcu-
late that sixty Wings and forty Radicals will Sc
cede from Mr.. GladStones party.
The part of the Irish bill relating to the presence
of Irish representatives at Westminster has not
been settled. There are two proposals before the
cabinet, first to reduce the number OF Irish mem
bers to thirty with power to vote on all questions
second, to allow the Irish larger representation
with the right to vote only on Imperial questions.
The Post says that Parnell and Gladstone are
both confident that the Irish vote will secure sixty
additional seats in England for the Liberals in the
event of dissolution oil Parliament
The Standard congratulates the Tory party upon
the return of Lord Salisbury to muster the oppos-
ing forces against MIR. Gladstone. 1t asks whether
the seceders have decided to help the Conser-
vatives or to allow the Conservatives to help
them; and adds, "To sink party differences is
now public duty"

BeIgiunn's Labor troubles.

BRUSSELS, March 31.--M. Beernaert, minister
of finance, made speech in the Chamber of Dep
uties yesterday, on the subject of the prevailing
labor troubles. He referred to the depression that
has existed in all branches of business for the past
eight years, and said that the capital invested in
coeries was yielding only one per cent interest.
The rioting of the last few days, he said, was
chiefly the work of convicted felons and this fact
justified the stern military measures which We're
adopted for the repression Of outbreaks. The
government he added would do its utmost to as
sst the unemployed workmen, and with this object
in view wonld ask for a credit of 43 000,0 900
francs, which sum it was intended to use in the
extension Of railways.
The minister of the interior has asked M. de
Freycinet to send French troops to the frontier to
prevent the escape from Belgium of persons i'm
Ilicated in the riots.
Work has been resumed in all the collieries at

KNIGHT OF LABOR FABLE

There is one place at least where persons of
SuCiaiistiC tendencies can realize their cream Of
equality and equal distribution the state
prison.
This is the sentence that caught the
eye of a valiant Knight one morning as
he was on his way to enter upon the pur,
suits of the day. He was wondering
about the words, when suddenly turning
a corner he came upon a gathering of
people listening to the words of IA man
who Was speaking to them with great
enthusiasm.
And the multitude Of them that be
heyed, the speaker was saying, were
of one heart and one soul neither said
any of them that aught of the things
which he possessed was his own, but
they had all things in common. Neither
was there any among them that lacked;
for as many as were pO9sessor~ Of lands
or houses sold them, and brought the
prices of things that were sold. and laid
them down at the apostles feet; and dis
tributiOn was made unto every man az
cording as he had need.
At this juncture policeman, who had
been listening with the rest, raped with
his club upon the stones of the street,
and then making rush at the speaker
grasped him roughly hy the throat and
hurled him violently to the ground,
The act was witnessed and applauded
vehemently 10y bevy of journalists, who,
with platoon of police answering the
signal of the guardian of the law, had
arrived simultaneously with the down
fall OF the person of socialistic tenden-
Cies

CHINESE AND MISSIONARIES.

1t is reported that at Methodist
conference at Richmond last Monday,
the reverend gentlemen passed a
resolution praying the attention of
the President Of the United States
to the international treaty with
China, the disregard Of whicb
threatens violence to the mission
aries of the church in that country.
1t would seem. then, that the mis-
sionaries haven't yet taught the
"heathen Chince" to "rcturn good
for evil. But if the missionaries
are to be protected at the cost of de-
grading Labor in this country, Cleye-
land had better not bother himself
about the missionaries. Let them
come home.
