Gladstone and Dlsraell.

From the Outlook: Gladstone was
needed to bring out all that was keen
est and brightest in the Parliamentary
eloquence Of Disraeli. Gladstone. on
the other hand, would have been liter
ally thrown away on any Tory antag-
onist beneath the level of Disraeli.
Never since Disraeli left the House of,
Commons has Gladstone found a Tory
antagonist worth his crossing swords
with. Among other differences be-
tween the two men were differences in
education. Disraeli never had any
thing like the classical training of
Gladstone. The mind of Gladstone was
STEPPED in the glorious literature of
Greece and of Rome, about which Dis
raeli knew little or nothing. Disraeli
could not read Latin or Greek: he
could not speak French. In famous
speech of his delivered in the House
of Commons at the height of his fame
and in opposition to a measure of Glad
stones, Disraeli made it plain that he
thought the meaning of university
was a place where, everything was
taught--a place of universal instruc-
ton. In another famous speech he
described John Henry Newman's
Apologize pro Vita Sua" as an "apolo-
gy'' for Newman's liSe. When the con-
gress of Berlin sat in 1878, and was
presided over by Prince Bismarck, the
great Prussian statesman opened and
conducted the business in English. Dis
raeli, accompanied by Lord Salisbury,
represented England at the congress,
and it was at first supposed that Bis
marck spoke English simply as mark
of compliment to England But Bis
marck kindly spoke English because it
had been made known to him that Dis
raeli could not speak French.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1897-06-05

In answer to questions IN; the HOUSE
Of Commons last week. MI, Long. pres
ldent Of the board Of agriculture, gave
some interesting figures as to the inn
ports Of cattle and meat and the value
Of cattle and sheep. in the United
Kingdom, says English Live stock
Journal He said that United. States
cattle had been required to. be slaugh-
tered at the port of landing since
March, 1879, and Argentine cattle had
always been subject to that require
ment. The number Of cattle imported
from the United States was approx
mately 800 In 1876, 400 In 1876, 1850
in 1877. and So, 600 in 1878. In the
last four years the numbers have been
397, 900 In 1892, $4,000 in 1893, SS1. 900
in 1894, and 274.OOO in 1895. Very
few Argentine cattle were imported
prior to 1891. In that year we received
about 1000 head; in 1892, $500; in
1893, $500; In 1894, $500: and In 1895.
nearly $4,000. The imports of beef
averaged about 100000 cwt. in the
period of 18S1-1SS5, 100000 cwt. in
1SS6-1S90, and 100000 cWt. in 18S1-95.
No figures were available as to the inn
ports Of mutton in 1Ss1-1SS5. In 1886
1890 they averaged rather over 1,00O,-
900 cwt., and in 1891-1S95 2,150,000 cwt.
There were 0,753, 600 cattle and 29,775.-
600 sheep in the United Kingdom at
the date of the last return. No official
estimate of their value existed, but If
f9 per head in the case of cattle and FL
per head in the case of sheep were
taken as a fair average, the value Of
the cattle would be nearly f97 100000,
and that of sheep f3O,O0O,00O. Com
pensation of cattle slaughtered to pre-
vent the spread of pleuro-pneumonia
was payable in cases where the animal
was found to be affected with the dis
ease at the rate of three-fourths of the
value Of the animal before 1t became
so affected. with a maximum of f30,
In every other case the full value was
paid, with a maximum of f40. The
amounts paid in Great Britain only by
way of compensation had been E129, 900
in 1890, E146, 900 in 1891, FAB 900 in 1892,
