LORD RANDOLPH CHURCHILL AT NEWCASTLE. A meeting of about four thousand people was held in the Circus of NewcastO to hear a political address by Lord Randolph Churthill. Mr. Cruddas, ('hairnaan of the Conservative Aseociatior, presided, and the Earl of Davit am (Liberal Unionist), the Earl of Zetland, Lord Ravensworth, and sev ml other members of Parliament were on the platform. Lord Randolph Churchill, who was enthusiastically received by the meeting, criticised at length Mr. Gladstone's objections to the Irish Executive's action, the "plan of campaign," and the Noll. eat manifesto. flossed there was a precisesimilarity between the No rent manifesto of the Land League of 1881 and the "plan of campaign" of the National League in 1887. Both denoted action of this kind--an illegal withholding of legal obligations by violent resistance to the process of the law and by intimidation of the Queen's subjects. Mr. Gladstone at Derby had the extraordinary daring —tlaughter)--to assert that the reason why he could not be accused by them of having resorted to coercive mentor, s for Ireland was because the Irish party of today had totally changed from the Irish party of his day. As well nrght they expect the Ethiopian to ..hange his elen or the leopard his snot.. I (" Hear, hear," and cheers.) Lord Randolph sought I to show that. Mr. Gladstone had recourse to coercion for Ireland before the No Rent mdaiteetto, and that the present Government did 166 have recourse to coercion for Ireland till after the wide adoption of the " plan of campaign" As to their adminat ration of the law in Ireland, Mr. Gladstone had averted that owing to the action of the Gevernment there was no freedom of speech in Trelwid. He quoted' gems" out of Mr. Dillon's speech delivered In the Rotunda, at Dublin, without interference from the Government, and asked if that war not freedom of speech with a vengeanee. United Irela,d had been prosecuted be nose It aided and abetted a League which had been declared a dangerous and illegal association. The Yere,adte Lewler or any other paper would be liable t t the same severe pro.ecution if it made similar publications. Mr. Gladstone said, " Remember Mitcheletown." His mind Was poisoned against the police of the whole United Kingdom; but if they got the truth the Unionist party did not fear to remember Mitchelstown. As to the murder of the policeman Whelan, he denied that the moonlight attack had been incited by the police or the informer; but even if they did, would it be an abomination ? Were they to be squeamish? They must meet these ruffians, those fiends in human form, with their own weapons. The secret of the colossal wealth of this country was because for 2 ta years the revolutionary force in the country bad been kept under. Once let this Irish revolution succeed, and, like other great empires, they might wane and sink into the ocean of the past. A vote of confidence in the Government was palmed. Lord Churchi I has distributed the prizes to them, cessful students in the Newcastle School of Science and Art. Addressing a large ass: mbly. he commended technical education, sod said that Mr. Gladstone gave one of the finest answers robes asked about the invasion of German clerks. "You must try and show that.your are better than the Germans." It had this incest peculiar merit; it was perfectly impoesible for any man to misunderstand itameaning. (Laughter.) Pointing to the openings for students, he referred to the new law courts in London that give judges and and barristers colds, none the better because they might be Gothic colds. Als Ought to be weed to make any man who constructed a Gothic budding for civil purposes liable to be tried for his life, Lord Beaconsfield he pointed to as cue of the greatest example. of indomitable persevenume, and his advice to the priceless students was never to admit failure, to persevere; no succeer WSB obtained in the world with. out hard work.
