In our columns will be found an
advertisement of the far famed White
Sulphur Springs of West Virginia.
These springs are situated on the G.

reach of Ilopkinsville and all sur
rounding points. The situation of
these springs is quite elevated,
which renders the air pure and exhil-
rating. The curative powers OF the
waters are wonderful, as thousands
of visitors who have been benefited
will testify. The fashionable people
from both north and south spend a
greater portion of the summer at
these springs, where health is regain

MR.. PAKNELES C1NTISS.

Mr.. Parnell follows Mr.. Gladstone in England
and Scotland. No more important announce
ment has been made in connection with the APP
preaching elections than that contained in one
of The TRIBUNE's cable letters published yes
terday. Mr. Gill, Nationalist Member for
Louth, outlined the Irish leaders programme
and briefly explained the reasons for this sngu-
lar and unexpected line of action. Nj. Parnell
has suddenly resolved to make series of eight
speeches in the chief cities of England and
Scotland for the purpose OF removing religious
prcudices and scctalian apprehens;ons that
have been excited by the opponents of Home
Rule. As he is himself Protestant, he i'll be
in sympathy with his audiences and can do
much to reassure them by calm, dispassionate
discussion of the religious aspects of Home Rule.
At the same time, by supporting Mr.. Gladstoucs
policy with the same heartiness of manner and
moderation of speech whicE Ire displayed on the
night of the great division, he can scarcely fail
TO produce a favorable impression i'll England
and Scotland. The appearance of the Irish
leader so soon after Mr.. Gladstonc's retirement
from Midlothian and Glasgow will have "A most
invigorating effect upon the Home Rule can
vass. 1t will be an outward sign Of the inner
grace of the reconciliation which will be effected
between England and Ireland, if the Govern
ment be sustained by the people.
This wise resolve on the part Of the Irish
leader may possibly inspire Mr.. Gladstone with
a corresponding motive for journey to Dublin.
There is no platform on which the great Liberal
could speak directly to the voters of the
United Kingdom as the one which the Nation
alists for years have reserved for themselves.
II Mr.. Gladstone after brief rest at Ilawarden
were literally to exchange audiences with Mr..
Parnell and address Irish assemblages in Dub
lin and Cork, the effect would be inspiring.

leaders is a development which may well en-
gage the attention of the country
In addition to those lamcntabe disqualified
tions The Orqan says Mr.. Ames is tho very en-
bodiment of the com monplace in point OF
ability and the sort of man whom genera
ton ago it would have been considered prepos-
u ferrous to suggest as n possible occupant OF the
slightest office in the State" This Will go tar
to settle the case and make an end OF the effort
on the part of the Republican leaders in Nlassa-
chusetts to nominate Mr.. Ames. There Is no
disputing the absolute justice of me organs
view. Of cDurse And yet we cannot help feeling
sorry for Mr. Ames whose political career is
thus suddenly terminated. 1t may be said that
he had no business to be OF an amlable dispo-
siton.r and esteemed by his neighbors and re-
spected by the community in which he ives.
Pcrhaps he couldn't nclp it. True, he might
have toned down those disqualifications by
dIigent study of The Ertning Post but the
chances are that he never heard OF that paper.
He was two years member of the Massa-
cbusctts Senate has been observation-disclosures
If the State for four years, and now, as we are
crediby informed, without any effort on his
mart is nut forward by the leaders of the party

nressive sign of the Generalization of the party.
The Bcecher Organ in the discharge of its duty to
humanity has sat down on him. and that ENDS
him. We do hOpc that he will not have the
temerity to continue in the field after being ex-
posed as "a man of amiable disposition who Is
esteemed by his ncighbors and respected by the
community in which he lives 1t would be
very improper on his part and might excite me

from those for whom he has made so meny sac
rifices and for whose liberties hs is fighting so
grand battle The spectacle of an English
Prime Minister bearing message OF peace to
Ireland and being acclaimed as its lberator
would be unique in political annals. 1t would
appeal to the imaginatiOns of English voters.
1t would be an earnest of the era of good feel
ing which the advocates of Home Rule believe
will follow the establishment of the Dublin
Parliament.
Such expedents as Mr. Parnell's English and
Scotch canvass are necessary because the Home
Rule canvass is made under many striking dis
advantages. Nearly one-thrd of the Liberal
candidates at the last election are no longer
available on the GladstOnian side because they
voted against the Home Rule measure 1t Is
difficult to replace them at short notice and
there is very little money for election expenses.
The Conservatives and Coalition Liberals have
their candidates in the field and ample imam
cial resources. The abruptness with which the
appeal to the country has been made has
allowed scant time for the selection OF Home
Rule candidates and Mr. Gadstone's canvass
will suffer in consequence Probably it is the
weight of practical considerations OF this sort
which forced Mr.. Cowen to take so gloomy
view of the immediate prospects of Home Rule
as that unfolded in his cable letter in yester-
days TRIBUNE. Mr.. Gladstone and Mr. Par
