CHURCHILL TO GLADSTONE.
LONDON, May $50. - Lord Randolph
| Churchill, in a letter to Gladstone, says:
| regret that was absent from the House of
! Commons on the occasion of your speech on the
! 2lst instant. From the reports | observe that
you completely mlsapprehended the meaning
/ of certain remarks of mine on recent occasions
| in regard to the Ulster Loyalists, and conse-
| Guently pronounced an impressive condemna-
ton upon my opinions referred to-. You
will not consider me wanting in re-
spect when l assert that you completely
miSstated my doctrine, My opinion that an
inevitable result of establishing Parliament in
Dublin such as your Government proposes
will be civil war, harmOniZes with the opinions
expressed by an overwhelming majority of the
public men of England competent to
give judgment, and almost every person
| in Ireland Of experience, position and re-
spectability Moreover, it is the unanimous and
immovable conviction of the whole Protestant
community of Ulster. My close examination of
the position led me to the conclusion that the
Ulster Loyalists are justified in contending that
such Parliament at Dublin would be composed
| mainly OF National Leaguers, who, in the guise
| OF Parliament, would be more tyrannical
| than in the past do not hesitate
to say that should their fears be real
| in resisting by force of arms such u
| monstrous yoke. If the protection of the Impe-
| rial Parliament should be withheld. the Loyal
| ists would be IN duty bound compelled to pro-
| tect themselves also oontended that Parlia-
ment has no moral right to divest itself OF its
| responsibilities towards the Ulster Loyalists
nor transfer the allegiance of the Loyalists TO
what must to them be not only a foreign
but hostile body, without the full
| and free consent OF the Loyalisis them
selves Sucn has been my doctrine
elevated into constitutional law by the action of
the Wings against the arbitrary Government of
James II. Nor can il be doubted tbs the actionf
of the LeaSuers, through Il Parliament, would
he far more awful than James would have been
upon England. never urged resistance other
than rigidly constitutional one, and if had
any influence, | would exert it at any sac
rfce to prevent the line being overstepped.
declared that in that struggle they, in my
| clearly be entitled to the sympathy and support
of the British people. This is what | would
have tried TO say in the House of Commons. l
feel confident that you Will admit that your de
scription of my doctrine was entirely inaccurate
and erroneous and that nothing in the above is
inconsistent with an eX-Miuister of the Crown
and Privy Councillor.
Gladstone has replied to Lord Randolph
Churchill as follows:
greatly regret if have misrepresented your
statements. My words rested mainly on your
speech i'll Ulster and the closing paragraph of
your letter to Mr.. Young on the 7th inst. To the
latter l am constrained to apply exactly the
same words expressed in Parliament
