while the country was on the eve of
an important change i'm her CONNER
cial system. were intended to pave the
way for the extensive modification in
the restrictions on commerce imposed
by the corn laws, and contain an able
and comprehensive summary of the
beneficial results of the tariff of 1872.
In 1851 he published a work of diff
ferent kind, which created considerable
interest both at home and abroad. Dur
ing a visit to Naples in the previous
year, he learned that a large number
of citizens of that place, who had
formed the Opposition" in the Neapo-
Titan Chamber of Deputies were eXiled
or imprisoned by King Ferdinand, and
that above 10000 of his subjects had
been thrown into prison on charge
of political dissatisfaction. Having
ascertained the truth of these state
ments, Mr.. Gladstone wrote to the
Earl of Aberdeen, urging his interpOsi-
tion in their behar; and that noble
lords remonetrances proved ineffcc-

1ect of the state Prosecutions at Ma
pies, which was translated into several
foreign languages and was sent by

dom, and placing his civil loyalty and
duty at the mercy of another" ana
that she had equally repudiated mod
eln thought and ancient history
Challenged by his Roman Catholic
friends to substantiate these grave
charges, Mr.. Gladstone published (NOv.
I, 1870 a bulky pamphlet entitled THE
Vatican DEGREES in their bearing on
Civil Allegiance; a Political EXpostula-
tion," which elected numerous elabor-
ate replies from Mgr. Capel, Dr. New

distinguished members of the Roman
Catholic church Mr.. Gladstone's re-
ply to his opponents, published Feb.

Answer to Replies and Reproofs." Mr..
Gladstone followed up his attacks on

the marquis of Harrington was chosen
by the Liberal party to be their leader

took part in the discussions of that
assembly. In 1876 he published HON
eric Synchronism: An Inquiry Into the
Time and Place of Homer" and on
Sept in the same year appeared his
famous pamphlet on Bulgarian Hor-
rors, and the Question of the East"
1t was followed (Alarch 13, 1870 by an
other pamphlet entitled lessons in
Massacre: An Exposition of the Con-
duct of the Porte i'm and about Bull

took an active part in the agitation re-

Conservative government, which re-
suited in the treaty of Berlin and the
