LONDON, Jan. 3.-A rumor is being
perSistently circulated here that the
GladStOnian managers are determined
to find seat in the house of commons
for Sir Charles Dixie, taking advantage
of the absence of Mr. Gladstone to ac-
cOmplish their purposes in order that
no responsibility for the movement
shall attach to him. 1t is asserted by
many liberal members that the pres
ence in parliament of Mr.. Dixie is
really necessary at this time, in view of
proposed further extension of the
franchise in the counties, upon which
subject Mr.. Dixie is presumably better
informed than any other English pOliti
clan. 1t is, however, not alone because
of his value as a specialist in this par

Few men in England are able to cope
with him in debate, and still fewer are
as thoroughly equipped with valuable
information and telling points on the
Irish questions, and had everything
gone well with him, and he retained his

that the present phase of the Irish

Phillip Vanderbilt and Richard Moss
are respectively the Liberal and Con-

for Winchester in the election which
will take place on Thursday. The Con-

have no expectation of winning the seat,
but are confident of greatly reducing
the Tory majority.
The Duke of Norfolk was received by
the queen at Osborne house to-day, and
handed to her majesty the pope's auto

jubilee gift and its accompanying eX-
pressions of kindly feeling.
1t is rumOred that Lord John Manners
will resign the chancellorsnip of the
duchy of Lancaster, and possibly his
seat in the house of commons on the re-
assembling of parliament. Mr.. Herbert
Gladstone will visit Belfast on Jan. 7
for the purpose of fulfilling an engage
ment to address the Young Ireland So
ciety. There is said to be considerable
suppressed excitement among the Bel
fast Orangemen over the announcement
of the coming of the son of the English
champion of home rule, and it is feared
that his address will be made the pre-
