LONDON, Oct 16.-Lord Salisbury came into
Office to prevent the Acknowledgement Of the en-
pire. The empire undoubtedly needs to
strengthen itself as far as possible, in view of
the dangers which at any time may beset it from
the outside. Mr. Gladstone held that one ele-
ment of such a strengthening would have been
found in conciliating Irish fellow-subjects by "a
reasonable concession. But Lord Salisbury
does not understand nationalities, and
accordingly his policy in Ireland is
making impossible that imperial policy which
the times urgently demand. A government
employing methods of despotism in Ireland is
morally, as well as physically, incapable Of as
sisting the cause of freedom in Bulgaria. There
is danger that the wrong which is being done
so near home may indirectly lead to serious
troubles, even in the most distant portions of the
empire In spite of the assertions made in GER
tain quarters that Lord Randolph Churchill has
in preparation a bill for the govern
ment of Ireland, it is highly probable
that the Tories will make no proposals upon Irish
government for the next session. The discussion
of the recently published measure has disclosed
the fact that Ministers thoroughly understand
that the present position Of political parties may
be relied upon to endure so long as the Irish
question can remain untouched. Among the
higher lights of the Conservative party the
opinion prevails that the moment they IN
dertake, in the face of Parliament
to provide a settlement, the decline

nothing so long as possible towards the salts
faction of Irish claims must. it is felt, be the
safest policy of the government Lord Sails
bury and Lord Randolph Churchill are expected
to return from the continent next next week,
when events may render meeting of the Cabi-
net necessary. But the Prime Minister parted
from his colleagues with the understand
ing that the Cabinet would not be
called together, except under pressure Of
special circumstances, before November. Every
day it is felt that affairs are growing worse in
Ireland, and there is no belief that the sit
tngs of the new Land Commission, presided
over by Earl Cowper, will effect any improve
ment. The case of Father Fahy, which has
now, like the case of Mr.. Parnelrs land bill, be-
come an affair of political strife, has tended to
deepen the impression among Conservatives that
the future is full of difficulties. Gladstonians
believe that it is impossible to drop the Irish
question, and that it will press more closely than
any other measure kpr settlement at the next
session of Parliament Until it has been set
tied, Ireland will remain disconnected, a con-
slant source of trouble and anxiety, and it must
be added, in one sense, of humiliation. The feel

Mr.. Gladstone has no doubt of the success of
the Liberal party in the event of another general
election.
