by the UniOnists.

by the UnfOnists.
LONDON, Jan. 27.-The Gladstonion
weekly journal. The Speaker. which gave
the first reliable forecast of Mr.. Gladstone's
home rule bill, gives from what it terms a
trusted source. the outlines Of the scheme
for home rule proposed from the headauar-
tiers of unionism and favored by eminent
tories. This scheme, The Speaker says, is
now under consideration by both sections
of the Irish party. with view to making
1t a unionist plan for solving the question
at the next general election.
These proposals summarized are, the
abolition Of the castle and the lord lieu
tenacy, the formation Of five great national
councils. two for England and one each for
Ireland. Scotland and Wales, the endow-
ment Of a Catholic university for Ireland
and the establishment. of four provincial
councils in Ireland similar to the English
county councils.
The Speaker calls 1t daring scheme
well baited, especially for English and
Catholic consumption, but 1t asks what
will the Ulstermen, old tories and liberal
Anionists think of 1t.
