Gladstone's Retirement.

The manner in which the queen announ-
ces the retirement of Mr.. Gladstone to the
people will prove interesting to Ameri-
cans. 1t is contained in the court circular
and is written by a court official Every
word of this circular is generally submitted
10 the queen in advance. 1.-The announce
ment is dated Windsor Castle. Sarch ),
and begins thus: ''The queen, accompani-
ed by her royal highuess, Princess bea-
trice, drove out yesterday afternoon.
Then follows list of the arrivals at the
castle, headed by the names Of the chill
dren of the Duchess of Albany, Prince and
Princess Henry of Battenberg, the Hon.
Thomas F. Bsyard. American ambassador
TO the court of St. James, and the French
ambassador, ending with the names OF MI
Gladstone.
1t then goes on to enumerate all those
who attend her msjesty's dinner party
wherein the names of Mr.. and Mrs. Glad
stone come last. This is followed by the
information that the queen and Princess
Beatrice went out this morning, and tnen
comes the act that cabinet council had
been held. Finally, following the an
nouncement anent the council comes the
announcement that the Right Hon. W. Z.
Gladstone had an audience of the queen
and rendered his resignation. which was
graciously accepted by her msjesty. IL
adds the queen has summoned Earl Rose
berry, X. G., secretary of state OF foreign
affairs. and offered him the post OF PRIME
minister vacated by the Right Hon. W. L.
Gladstone. NJ. P, and that Rosebery mas
accepted her msjesty's offer
Mr.. Gladstone wrote letter to Ear
Rosebery, congrsiulsting him upon his ac-
cession to the premiership. In his letter
Mr.. Gladstone promised to aid the new
prime minister whenever bis assistance
was asked. 1t is understood that Earl
Rosebery's communication to Sir William
Vernon Harcourt has resulted in the latter
consenting to retain his position as chancei-
lor of the exchequer and to his accepting
the government leadership in the house OF
commons.
