John Brighrs Reply TO Mr.. Glad
stone

LONDON, July ,6.-John Bright has
replied TO Mr.. Gladstone as follows
81 am sorry that my speech irri ated
you. 1t has been as great grief 10 me
to speak as / have spoken as it can
have been to you to lis en- or read"
Mr.. Bright then argues that Mr.. Glad
stones asking last November for ma
jority to enable him to be independ-
ent OF Parnell wes by the country as
well as by the Liberals understood to
mean msjority to resist Parnell,
and not make comp'e etc surrender to
him.
Referring to Mr.. Gladstone's objec-
ton TO his quotation CT the phrase
describing the Parnellites as marching
through apire to the disruption of the
Empire, Mr.. Bright says he believes
the Irish movement is now euch q
conspiracy, and that it is expecting
and seeking its further success through
Mr.. Gladstones measures.
Concerning the land purchase bill,
Mr.. Blight thinks that both Mr.. Glad
stones friends and enemies throu b.
out the country have a right to know
the Premier's inteltious conce ming
his future action on the measure and
adds: Your language seems to me
rather puzzle than an explau alton,
and the language of your colleagues is
contradictory, though little clearer"
In conclusion Mr. Bright says; 81
have urged no man in or out of Par
Lament to vote against you. i alb
stained from speaking until / was in
face of my electors. / adhere to what
l said. stall be surprised if the new
Parliament be more favorable to your
Irish measures than the one you
thought necessary to dissolve. Though
/ thus differ from you now on this
question, do not imagine / can ever
cease to admire your great qualities or
to value the grsat services you have
rendered to the country. Very sim
cerely yours, JOHN BRIGHT"

Lord Sal sbury has contributed to
The Quarterly RerieC an unsigned
article.wbich has been eagerly awaited,
as his final manifesto. The author
does not. however, state the Irish
policy of the Conservatives. He
indicts Mr.. Gladstone as "aspersistent
political Notwithstanding by whole.
sale doctrines solemnly advocated and
adopting totally new doctrines when
ever the shifting minds of popular
favor seems TO call for them" He
states that he once heard Cornwall
Lewis say that If Mr.. Gladstone should
ever become Premier he,would lead the
Liberal party TO perdition. Referring to
Mr.. Chamberlain, the author declares
it childish to think that the Conserva-
tives and Radicals will continue to act
together, except in union sgainst sep
aratiop. In conclu ion he Gays:
"Whether Mr.. Gladstone succeeds or
fails in his present enterprise, he will
still leave legacy of woe TO the coun-
try. II bis plans be carried civil
war will be certain, as cure as an ex.
p!osion follows the application of the
torch to the magazine. A foreign war
is also poss BILE. If his plans be re-
jected we shall forthwith pass into the
most critical stage of Irish and English
history"
PRESS COMMENTS.
TIE Daily Ne,Ds Liberal Gays: at
would be absurd to ignore the fact
that in the boroughs, especially in
London, the government has lost
fairly. The moral 10 be deduced from
the defeat is that the electors require
time in which TO digest home rule"
The Standard CONSERVATIVE Gays:
at is impossible for anything to hap
pen in the rural districts to convert
the Gladstone disc ster into a success.
The judgment Of the county voters is
awaited with keen anxiety, mainly to
ascertain to what extent thsy will add
their voices to the national verdict" :"
