the lie and health Of the grand old
man"
The animal, Il q said, had been de-
prived OK rs calf recently and has been
dangerous since. Mr.. GlAdstOne was
taxing a walk about hls estate, unaware
OF the dangerous character of the COW,
when the COW made sudden and lm-
petuous rush a. aim. Mr.. Gladstone did
40. nave time % get out OF the way Of
tue furious animal and stood ms ground
h0olng that g would 20 10 one side.
.ue COW dashed madly forward and
Knocked Mr.. Gladstone down, tramp
Ing upon hlm and endeayOring 20 gore
nim with Is horns, which, fortunately,
We're not firted u DO as mucn injury as
rs feet. Others, seeing the predica-
menI Of Mr.. Gladstone, rushed 20 his
assistance and drove Oft the COW, which
OtnerNlse might have made fatal end
ing 10 the attack. Mr.. Gladstone was
found TO not be seriously hurt, a.
though mucn shaken and somewhat
hFu sed by nls encounter with the ylel-
Cas animal.

The Pail Mail Gazette. also liberal,
says. 'Ihe premier. IN complying with
the objection or the sovereign To a

The ~. James Gazette conservative
sts-. "The radical view of the queen :
position aud rights IS OF more import
auce than that much cracked vase, Mr..
Iabouchere's reputation for decency.
IL the queen acted as described sne was
absolutely justified. On the strictest
c1nstitunonal theory that the crown
has q choice, II the premier begins q
course Of hardly concealed revolution
With chance majority dependent upon
the IRISH vote the sovereign might dis
O. s. the N nisters, dissolve parliament
and appeal 10 the country"
me Globe (Couservstive) says q IS an
exceedingly strange doctrine that holds
the crown has no sort Of right to an
opinion "a to the choice OF ministers.
Cases are easily conceivable where the
negIecting Of the sovereign would be Il
grave oieach OF duty.
