Chamberlain has now said enough
abont his personal facrifces. Other
men who are totally silent about them
have made much greater sacrifices
than he. Mr.. Chamberlain would do

THE "TIMHs,"
commenting on Lord Randolph

regrets that his "honest indignation
has caused him to lapse into his

tinuing, the Times says: "The vigor
and pungency Of the manifesto can
not be denied, but it would have
gained in effect II II had been couched
in more chas'ened language"
SECRET CIRCULAR
The Times publishes what II says Is
copy OF the private special circular
recently sert by the president Of the
Supreme Couocil to the different
"centers" OF the Irish Republican
Brotherhood throughout the Kingdom
Of Great Britain aud Ireland. The
document fills column OF the Times
in fine print. The gist OF Il lies in
the claim that 10 the efforts OF the
Fenians is Ireland indebted for the
present advantageous position occu-
pied by the Irish cause, and in the
statement that while Mr.. Gladstone's
scheme is inadequate, because Ireland
must have nothing short OF independ-
ence, 1t is the duty OF Irishmen TO
support the Premier in every way in
order to cradle h m TO complete the
step he wishes 10 take. The Times
says the document is marked, ITO be

RANDOLPH cHURcHmL's ELECTION MANI

Lord Randolph Churchills mani
iesto TO the electors Of Paddipgton
Gays;
IA peoples dissolution has come
upon u.s." Such is the title given by
Gladstone to the most wanton political
oonVulsien that In our time has afiliCt-
ed this country. By the caprice OF an
individual elevated to dignity by the
act OF the people, by the boundless
egotsm OF the Premier, the kingdom
Is to be dtunited for the purpose of
securing office, II only for a little
while, by the aid OF a disloyal faction
BubJisting upon foreign gold. The
government has been deserted by all
who could confer upon II character or
reputation. Gladstone has reserved
for his closing days q conspiracy agsinst
the honor OF Great Britain and welfare
OF Ireland more startlingly base add
nefarious than any OF those numerous
designs and plots that for a quarter
OF century have occupied his
imagination. Nor are the re-
suits OF the repeal of the union
A matter OF moment TO him. No
practical responsibility will fall upon
his shoulders. He regards with in.
conceivable iiivolity the fact that upon
his successor will devolve the impossi.
BILE labor OF rebuilding shattered en-
pire. Let the credulous electorate
give him a maj ority; TO aid which an
other Irish revolution may bs con.
summetad, aud this most moderate OF
ministers will be satisfied 10 com.
placently retire to repose. Nature
cries aloud-nature, to whose cries he
30 long turned deaf ear"
Churchill stgmatises thu home rule
as "insanity, trafiicking in treason,
condoning crime, exalting ti.loyalty,
abusing loyalty, and monstrCui mix.
ture OF imbeoility, extravagance aud
political Mysteries" He rldicules the
anticipated beneficial results from the
bll, snd afiirms that "the united and
concentrated genius Of B-dlsm and
Colney Hatch would strive 10 produce
n more striking tissue OF absurditieF
than those grsyely recommended BY
senile vanity TO people renowned
for common senee."
Churchill, strongly denounoes one,
man po wer and holds Mr. Gladstone
responsible for the commercial de-
preston, delayed reforms, suffering
irom injustice and Ia xlessness ia Ire
land, scredit and bloodshed abroad
and colonial alienation. He asa
speaks OF Mr.. Gladstone a. "the be

OF Commons, no longer able 10 conceal
his personality under the shelter oil

leading light OF non.coniormity, nou
demanding vote Of confidence 10 him.

from the worst days Of the second

Churchill concluded: Gentlemen. n

glish vocabulary may contain OF p ain

the man who makes the most unpar
alleled claim OF dictatorial power con

j have deliberately addressed mysel
TO the personal Ispect OF the question
and have drawn the character of thu
claimant from recent history. Mr.
GLADSTONE, at Edinburgh, on Friday
