NEWCASTLE, Oct. The annual meeting
of the National Liberal federation formally
assembled in the town hall about 10 O'Clock
this morning. Right Hon Sir George
Ireyelydn introduced resolution condeinh-
ing the registration laws, which, the res0-
luton declares, excluded many really Iuai-
fed voters from the polls The resolution
further declared in favor Of shorter sessions
of parliament, and that elections should be
held upon the same day and recognized the
principle Of paying members OF the house
Of commons is being the only means OF Sc
curing an adequate representation OF the
working class IN parliament. All proposals
met with the approval of the delegates. and
IS evidence of the fact loud cheers and
other forms of vigorous applause greeted
their introduction.
In speaking of the resolutions Sir George
pointed out the crying abuses which now
infected the electoral system OF the BRITISH
Isles, and again urged shorter parllamentS
and payment of parliamentary representa-
tives at the rate of 200 year.
Samuel Storey, NJ. p. seconded Sir
George Trevelyan's suggestions, and IN so
DONG warmly denounced system which,
he SAID, imposed every dlIncultS between
man and his undOubted right to share in the
management OF ms country affairs.
The resolutions were then passed unanl-
mously. The Marquis OF Ripon was the
present condition of the rural population of
Great Britain, paying particular attention
TO the abuses from which farm laborerS and
small farmers are suffering. At the close
of this preliminary Grafton the marquis
presented Il resolution to the effect that the
condition of the rural population impels us
TO require immediate attention upon the
part OF parliament. According to the
speakers II was OF primary Importance That
parliament should provide for the establish
ment of district and parish councils or local
governing bodies under some such title to
attend 10 the district and parish matters
of their vicinity.
The members OF these committees, he
suggested, should be elected by popular
vote. The marquis also held that parlla-
ment should concede full and broad powers
to the local governing authorities TO &C
quire aud to hold land for the purpose of
making allotments OF mall holdings Tor
villages for places of worship of all creeds
and denominations, for Iaborers dwellings
and for other proper public purposes. y

QUEER PENSION CLAIMS.

Some OF the Strange Claims That
Hsa Brought Before the Pension
Among the thousands of applica-
tlons for government pensions there
are, as a matter OF course. many that
are oddly expressed, az well as may
that are put upon queer grounds.
The Washington Post mentions few
examples.

that a. was incapaeitated for manual

The widow Of a Pennsylvania volun-
teer reported that her husband had
received an axe wound in the right
foot. A question or two brought out
the TACT that the accident occurred III
1875, IN Pennsylvania, while the man
was splitting wood.
