loyal of them say that the grand old man

GIadstone's Pupgent I;eioinder-
LoNDoN, July 15th.-Giadstone has writ
ten reioinder to the Duke of Westminster
in reply to the Premiers charge that his
Grace had struck blow at the aristocraey
by deserving Liberalism and aiding in the
election of Tory candidate in bis district,
Chester, by the use of money and carriages.
GLADSTONE twits the Duke with working
tor Tories harder than he ever worked for
Liberals :" and suggests in doing so he is
striking a similar blow at the aristoeracy to
that which he gave it when he helped to
defeat the reform bill in 1866 Gladstone
said he does not challenge the proprieSy of
the Dukes action, but that he grieved over
il. 1t was an act against patriotism T"
continued Gladstone. And" he adds,
to disunite the classes, and So
impair the strength of the Empire,
are acts as grave as 10 strike blow at the
aristocracy. which you did in 1856, when
you took the chief part in destroying the
reform bill and in ousting the Government.
1t is possible what you did then you may
be doing now. In my eyes the gravity of
the present issue involves the honor of the
empire, and the civilized world has stamped
England's Irish policy with disgrace The
Government sought to cancel the past, on
which you shut your eyes and meet the
present and future demands, thinking that
England's honor should be closed. | la

ments on British politics in somewhat
raging style Among other things it SAYS:
The tricksters, soreheads and mounte-
banks who are about TO assume office in the
present tremendous crisis in English his
tory, have in common but one dominating
impulse-to grab the emoluments of power:
This is indeed grotesque sacrifice. 1t is
as if a rascal had imbued himself With the
vestments of a priest for the purpose of
robbing the altar" In another paragraph
the paper says Gladstone's opponents
deliberately concerted the Belfast tragedies
for political purposes. Murder, particular
or wholesale, will not stop them any more
than it did Irelands enemies heretofore.
The Marquis of Salisbury, Joseph Cham
berlain and Lord Randolph Churchill are
as INSCRIPTIONS as Pitt, Clare and Castle

of the Times and Lord Harrington are as
infamous as those of Lord CORVALLIS or
