introduced Again.

LONDON, November 27.-It Is Impossible
to exsggerate the political excitement now
prevailing In consequences Of the Parneil
episode. Such crisis has never been wit
oessed In English politics before, except on
the occasion Of the overthrow Of party by
a vote In the House or at the polls. In fact,
the fate Of both the Liberal party and OF
nome rule In Ireland Is recognized as de-
pending upon the outcome of the present
lmbrtglio. The clubs and the House Hobbies
are filled with groups Of earnest debaters,
nothing but this alLabsorblng subject being
heard Of II may be said, without hesita-
tion. that Mr.. Gladstone's letter to Mr..
Morley has raised him to the pinnacle of bis
country mems estimation. Never has the
Grand Old Man shown his true grandeur In
~ striking "a manner as by this letter, which
may very easily prove tO be the death war
rant OF his prospects Of ever again reaching
ne Premiership, but which places him in
efrOLt rank OF those who would rather be
right than be rulers. The Tlm IS and one or
two ether papers which have always shown
inalignity toward Mr.. GladstOns are the
nnly ones which venture TO withhold the
meed OF praise for his conduct on this occa-
sion, and their carping voices are drowned
~ the accla'naiiOns which come up from all
parts OF the country, and in which men OF all
PARTIES join alike.

Many Liberals are beginning TO suspect that
the true inwardneS5 Of the Stubborn atti-
tude maintained by the Parnellites Is that
they desire 10 delay the advent Of home rule
for a selfish purpose. It Is limited that this
would be more OF an object To them than the
speedy success OF the Cause which they pro-
tess 10 have at heart This being the Case,
hen, II Is charged, they played upon Mr..
Parntlls very natural dislike Of "retTeating
under fire." and iuduced him to retain the
leadership, knowing that sucn action would

Irish societies 10 the North Of England

Thanksgiving Day was honored by sunny

and eaten both by those who have reason to
be thankful for the prosperity which makes
good things possible and by those who. for
their share OF the feasting, are thankful to
others remembrance. The services held at
the various churches were attended by con-
gregations of about the usual size on this
day. On the streets there was almost Sun
day stiffness, the closing of places of busi-
ness being very general. The theatres had
packed houses and the other amusements
were well patronzed.
