LORD weLsELEY EXPLAINS.
LONDON, May 1.-THE House OF Lords
this evening was crowded with people
who desired to hear Lord Wolseley's de-
fence. The peers and peeressss' galleries
were filled. Mr.. Gledstone, Mr..
Stsnhope, Lord Randolph Churchill,
VIscount Cranberry ano ut er mem ers
OF the House Of Commons crowded the
steps of the House. Lord Wolseley, who
vas seated on a crossbencb, rose when
the Duke OF Cambridge entered and shook
hands with him. Upon the appearance OF
Lord Salisbury, Lord Wellesley asked
,eave 10 make personal explanation with
reference to Lord Saiisbury's complaint
of his attacking the government. He
could not see how an. un-
pre- JUDGED person could construe
mis- remarks into an attack upon the gov
eminent. He felt that he could not
honestly assault the government for neg
Iigence toward the army and navy. In the
position which he occupied in the admin
istration of the army he could not fail
TO be fully aware of what Mr.. Stanhope
mad done and was doing to render the
army efficient. He felt deeply the
necessity of keeping the forces eff
cient, and WAS convinced that more
might be done t1an had yet been
accomplished. He admit that he said
the government had done much toward
improving military defences. In the
osr quet speech referred to he ssid no
more than he did in his evidence be-
tore the commission OF inquiry
He still adhered to that evidence, word
for word, and hsa nothing whatever to
with draw. As long as the navy was as
weak as 1t was, no army could hold its
own, dispersed as it was all over
the world. The deiences at home
and abroad were in bad
condition. The military forces were not
organized as they should be, as they did
not guarantee the safety of the capital.
He old not want to create panic.

refer among other things to the clocks
shown them Some We're constructed

fashioned upon principle peculiarly
Japanese, and supposed to be more
convenient for the registration of their

are divided in Japan into twelve
periods of time. six of which are ap-

summer. The clocks are altered
