Indicates that the private secretary Is to write
an answer OF certain kind and to send that let

Gladstone eNacts from bis secretaries that
they should learn the handwriting OF his near

tiers. As a matter OF course. letters to Mr.
Gladstone from Cabinet Ministers. whether
they be his colleagues or not are unopened by
his secretaries. as also are any letters from

ing haze of partisan prejudice through which
some OF his countrymen still regard him will
finally disappear. Then his heroic figure will
fore the world. pre5minent. majestic. sublime.
