vass. He had to cable his election adj
dress from New York. His wife and
son, however, worked hard in his abb
sence and the result was that he received
majority of 1856 votes over his Tory
competitor. The Home Rulers consider
it the greatest Tory defeat since the
general election. The Liberals con-
Quoted their election on the ground Of
opposition to the clauses Of the English
local government bill which propose to
give compensation to saloonkeepers
whose licenses may not be renewed
under the prospective county board.
Opposition to the compensation clauses
OF this bill is fought by the Radical
Unionists as well as by the Glad

reunion of the radical secessionists with
the Gladstone party. Taking every

THE SOUTHAMPTON ELECTION

AS we were going to press last week
the glad news was received that the
Liberals had elected their candidate,
Mr.. Evans, for the borough of South
ampton, a Tory stronghold in the south
OF England. Under ordinary circum-
stances the success of a Liberal member
IN the town would have been great
victory for the Home Rulers. For gen
erations the borough has been the hot
bed of Toryism. In 1885 and 1885 the
Tories carried the place by large ma
jorities. The vacancy now was caused
by the promotion of one of the sitting
members to an official position. The
appointment was not announced till the
day before the issuance Of the writ of
election. The nominations were quickly
made and the polling was fixed for the
earliest day possible. The reason for
this haste was owing to the fact that
Mr.. Evans, the Liberal candidate. was
in the United States and could not re-

A meeting Of the Ladies' Literary
Society attached to the Church Of the
Immaculate Conception was held last
Monday evening with large attend
ance and varied programme Of exer-
cises, embracing history, poetry and
essays on various subjects. One Of the
most interesting papers read was con-
tribution by Miss Mary Moran, who
gave fine descriptive sketch Of Floci-
da where she spent the winter months.
The poetry of Adelaide Proctor was
ably discussed, several ladies participa-
ting in the criticism and contrasting
her style with other noted poetesses.
The question cards proved quite inter-
esting and a most enjoyable evening
was spent. The Society has now a
membership Of so, and it is gradually
increasing. The IRISH STANDARD
would suggest that the ladies invite
