GLADsroNE's VIEWS.

Gladstone, in a letter regretting his in
ability to address the electors OF Cheshire,
says: "The Tory policy OF twenty years of
coercion for Ireland is more rational and
contains more promise OF being effectual
than any one OF the intermediate and fam
tastic charges which have com to birth
under the %exigencies Of election. The Duke
Of Westminster recently said it was time
for the Liberals to put their country before
their party. That is first what I tried to
do when l made known to the Marquis OF
Salisbury my desire to support him when
he was Prime Minister. If he should intro.
duce a comprehensive measure OF reform
for the Government and peace of Ireland,
in conformity with, as We now know them,
the views then entertained by his own Lord
Lieutenant"

the Whole (Mr. Regain, Of Texas, in the

Reed remarking that the sensible wing OF

by Mr.. Warner, of Ohio, providing that no

In the caucus tonight the attendance
was large, nearly all the Democratic Rep

nothing wal said directly about the tariff
or the pension tax proposition. The state
OF business in the House was discussed,
Speaker Carlisle, by request, ran over the
calendar, calling attention to almost mex
tricable confusion of special orders on
every subject OF general Importance. After
hearing the statement, the caucus decided
to select q committee of three members
which should be charged with the duty of
selecting and pushing to a point of action
such of the measures as it should deem
proper to attempt to pass, and Messrs.
Carlisle. Morrison and Randall were named
as the members of the committee. The
sentiment OF the caucus seemed to be in
favor OF passing. appropriation bills and
and then adjourning. Soon after the selec-
ton OF the committee, Mr.. Randall rose
and asked what the action of the caucus

chorus of "yes, yes" from all sides.

Kingston's Loss.

The village of Kingston, TuscoIa county,
was visited by destructive fire on the 18th
inst. Only one store was left standing in
the village. The losses foot up over S25-
600, with insurance barely reaching $4,000.
The fire originated in a barn which had
been occupied by some boys, and it is
thought was caused by IA cigar stub being
carelessly thrown into some hay. When
frst discovered the barn was envoloped in
flames. AS strong wind was blowing at
the time it was at once evident that the
there was no fire protection the flames
leaped from one building to another on
both sides of the street until there was
but one left, which was situated on the
windward side Of the fire.
