YOU WILL BE SURPRISED 1 JL at receiving a letter from me, but thank God, I am pleased to say I am getting better evary day. I shall be so glad to breathe the fresh air again. It has seemed a dreadful long time to be in bed. Yon know I was taken to the hospital last April to be treated for Bright's Disease of the Kidneys. Well, on the 31st of July tbey tapped me, and took away 304 ounces of water. The same thing was done again on the 18th September, and 408 ounces of water obtained. On the 9th October I was discharged from the hospital as incurable. In January this year (the 20th) was again tapped at homj and 360 ounces of water taken away. The St. Bartholemew's Hospital in London refused me admission as a hopeless case, and the St. Bartho- lomew's Hospital, Chatham, also refused me, as being the worst case they had seen for years, and two local doctors ^ave me up as hopeless. When I came from the hospital it took three to pat me to bed. My clothes had to be cnt off. I was an object of misery and despair. After the Hospitals had refined me, and Doctors given me up, my wife persuaded me to try Hop Bitters, and torn the com encement I have improved daily. I have only taken -hem seven weeks, and can now get down stairs and walk about without even a stick. With the aid of a few more bottles of the Bitters shall be well again. The water has entirely left my body and legs. The only ti^ce left is in my feet. It is a wonderful medicine. I Wish I had tried it sooner, as I have nearly ruined myself and family with doctors' bills and other expenses. I might have been well long ayo. At the Hospital I had no appetite whatever, but since using the Bitters eat everything with a relish. The only difficulty Is the expense, but must not mind that so long as I am getting well Am cheerful now that recovery is near, for every one had given me up as a bad job. With best wishes to Your affectionate Brother, (Signed) WILLIAM GRAYSON. 1, Bush-terrace, Cage-lane, Chatham, March, 14, 1886. To F. Stammers, 23, Cursitor-street, Chancery-lane.

HI G H A ~U~r H O R I T Y Dr. THOMPSON says Kidney Disease is pro- bably next to consumption the commonest cause of death among adults in this climate. YJU have nad a recent and mysterious attack of asthma, pains in the back aud around the loins, severe headaches, dizziness, inflamed eyes, a coated tongue and a dry mouth, loss of appetite, chilly sensation, indi- gestion (the stoma h never is in order when tbe kidneys or liver are deranged), dryness of the skin, nervousness, ni:ht sweats, muscular debility, des- pondency, a tired feelin r (especially at nigtit), puffing or bloating under the eyes. and your muscular system seems utterly helpless. Dr. Roberts, of England Prof. Thompson, ofr'New Vork and other celebrated authorities tell us that all these symptoms are sure indications of Bright's Disease With some patients the disease runs slowly and for years. With others it comes as a thief in the night This fact is an alarming one, and startles the inquiry, What can be done ? For the CURE of Kidney and Liver Complaints HOP BITTERS have no equal in the world, and those suffering from any of the above symptoms should use them at once.

topics of the Clattli. SATURDAY, JUNE 26, 1886. LOCAL. MR WHEATLEY AND WELLS' CHARITY, MR WHEATLEY, we think, has acted wisely in completely cutting his connection with Wells' Charity. Perhaps it is a pity that he ever had anything to do with it. Money is not everything in this life. His position as clerk and solicitor to the charity certainly brought him pounds, but it has also caused him no small amount of anxiety and trouble. Latterly, much sympathy was shown for the Town Clerk, the belief becoming pretty general that he was really being persecuted in the matter. It is quite possible to discuss public ques- tions without calling each other names and imputing the vilest motives. Mr Wheatley admits the extent of his errors, and pro- mises to make amends. GAMBLING IN PUBLIC. HOUSES. GAMBLING in public-houses is said to be pretty general, and to be rapidly on the increase in the several parts of Wales. It is quite a common thing, it seems, to see groups of customers gathered round tables playing all sorts of games at cards; and "sweeps" over important races are got up in the most open manner/imagin- able. What says the law upon the subject ? The other day the landlord of a public- house in Lancashire was summoned for per- mitting gambling to be indulged in on his premises. A detective and other witnesses gave evidence to the effect that two men, named Williams and Griffiths, were playing at cribbage, and that the de- fendant backed Williams, P and a man named Bann backed Griffiths. The defendant lost, and money was seen to pass. The solicitor who appeared for the defendant contended that no offence had been committed, because Williams and Griffiths were not playing for money or money's worth. The landlord was charged with allowing gaming on his premises, but laying money on the two men who were playing was not gaming it was betting, if anything, but he did not think it was even that. The magis- trates decided differently, and fined the de- fendant j35 and costs. How, then, is this gambling in hotels allowed in Wales ? The authorities in some portions of the princi- pality appear to be just as terribly strict in certain directions as they are inexcusably lax in others. I
GENERAL. ';
GENERAL. FARMERS' FRIENDS. MR WATERTON, the famous naturalist, made an offer to the farmers on his estate that if they would not kill the small birds he would make good all depredations to their fruit and crops, as he was under the impression that what the birds consumed did not entail one hundredth part of the loss caused by insects. The result was that the farmers had better crops, and Mr Water- ton had to pay nothing. A sparrow will consume about 50,000 grubs in a season, which, if allowed to live, would have con- sumed 50 times as much as the sparrow. In Norfolk recently the farmers formed a club for shooting the sparrows, but the clergy- man of the parish would not countenance it. The result was that the clergyman's garden became the refuge for the birds, and the only fruit that season in the parish was to be found in his garden. r v 6 » A BRAVE MISSIONARY BISHOP. BISHOPS of the Church of England are ecclesiastical princes, but missionary bishops often carry their lives in their hands. The late Bishop Hannington faced the most terrible dangers in Central Africa, and, in fact, courted them. He would have made a most excellent British officer, as he was as brave as the late Colonel Burnaby. On One occasion he shot a lion's cub, and then the lion and lioness came bounding towards him, but he retreated with his face towards them, and they stopped, apparently transfixed by his eye. After he had got about 100 yards away, he resolved to return and secure the skin of the cub. He did so, and the lion and lioness, who had been licking their dead cub, retreated. Fancy the Bishop of Gloucester, orv any home bishop, in a similar situation THE HEALTH OF CITIES AND TOWNS. IT cannot be impressed too often upon com- munities that good water and good drainage are the two chief requisites in order to render life more valuable in our great cen- tres of population. We find in such cities as Alexandria, Cairo, St. Petersburg, Calcutta, Bombay, and Madras, where sanitary regu- lations are lax, that human life is not half the value of what it is in such places as London,Brighton, Portsmouth, Baltimore and places where the authorities, arealive to the importance of sanitary arrangements. This i is no new discovery, but the fact ought to -constantly drugged iato Uze eart of all people who have to do with such matters. All decaying matter ought to be removed daily from oar midst, and eewers flushed with the same regularity, while baths, both public and private, ought to be as common as blackberries in September.
,.FOREIGN.
FOREIGN. THE EXPULSION OF THE FRENCH PRINCES. THE bill for the expulsion of the French princes has passed the Senate, and will now become the law of the land. This act on the part of the French Government shows weakness. We have tens of thousands of Republicans in the British islands, but while they obey the laws of the land we do not interfere with them, and the Monarchy is as safe now as ever it was. The French princes will come over here as they did before, and thus France will lose some millions of money and Great Britain will be the gainer. Some of the French princes fought on the North in the American war, but the Royalist cause in the States did not improve its position, while poor Prince Napoleon lost his life* in fighting the Zulus without creating any Imperialist zeal in Great Britain. v > „ « ■« BOY SOLDIERS IN INDIA. THERE are great complaints in Bombay and < other Indian "ports about the unwisdom of the home authorities in sending out mere boys to face the dangers of an Indian summer. The Jumna landed about 1,200 of these lads the other day, and it is felt on all hands that many of them must die in the process of being acclimatised. A British soldier costs some hundreds of pounds before he is efficient, and yet the raw material is used up and killed off like flies, as if of no value whatever. Mature men only are tit to face an Indian summer. Why not send these lads to some of our healthy colonies first, and so harden and develop them, like a gardener does his tender plants, before call- ing upon them to face a climate which only the strongest can endure ?
THE ISSUE MADE STILL CLEARER.
THE ISSUE MADE STILL CLEARER. No person can possibly pretend to plead that he cannot comprehend the issue now placed before the constituencies. Last week we mentioned that some of our ablest political writers were doing their utmost to bewilder the electors. They kept contending that support given to Mr GLADSTONE'S candidates would imply approval both of the Home Rule Bill and the Land Purchase Bill. We ventured to assert that no such meaning could be attached to the votes of Mr GLADSTONE'S followers. All this has been made still clearer and firmer by the PRIME MINISTER'S own utterances during his extraordinarily enthusiastic and brilliant campaign in Scotland. What he uttered upon this important point must be borne clearly in mind. Tories and Liberal- Unionists (or Paper-Unionists) are seeking to lead the people astray. What were Mr GLADSTONE'S own words ? We reproduce them here, and trust that they will be indelibly impressed upon the mind of every honest-thinking man. "There is," he said in the course of one of his recent orations, "there is a question to be answered which it is of vital importance that the electors should have clearly and beyond all dispute before them. What is the true issue which they are called upon decide ? That is a matter which is much disputed, and I wish to put two questions. Is it, in the first place, a choice between opposite politics in respect to Ire- land—between opposite principles of action ? or is it a choice to be made upon the parti- culars of a large and complicated bill ? I should not have thought of discussing such a question if it had not been the fact that very important organs of opinion have been addressing themselves to the purpose of showing that you are not to consider the policy that is to be pursued, but are to entangle yourselves in the particulars of this or that particular method of establishing that policy. I hold that the electors of the nation are excellent judges of the policy. In a question of this kind, which appeals to the broad principles of justice before and above all things, in my opinion there are no judges so competent as the electors of this country. But if we are to enter into the details of this clause or that clause, you will tell me that these are the very matters for the discussion and settlement of which you sent us to Parlia- ment. It is for you to decide upon broad principles. It is idle to say that the coun- try is to be asked •to vote upon the particu- lars of the Ministerial Bill. The Ministerial Bill is dead with Parliament." Surely, that language is clear enough to satisfy anyone. Still, some of the foremost politicians of the day and several of the most influential newspapers go on misrepresenting the ques- tion before the constituencies. Mr GOSCHEN insists that Mr GLADSTONE aims at nothing short of the dismemberment of the Empire. We do not like to use harsh terms. At the same time we cannot help saying that to speak in this way is far wide of the mark, and thoroughly misleading. Canada, Aus- tralia, New Zealand, and a score more of our colonies enjoy Home Rule. Yet they form part of the Empire, and are perfectly loyal. Why should it be otherwise with Ireland 1 The le&ding Tory journal in England asks this question—"Can the Irish people be trusted, or can they not, to manage their own affairs ?" We believe they can. The policy of coercion has cer- tainly had a long, and, as it proved, a pain- ful trial. Will the better plan not be to substitute concession for coercion ? Justice often succeeds where despotism fails. Bayonets can kill, but they cannot convince and convert. Men's bodies may be cast into gaols, but the minds of men who wish to see their country free can- not be imprisoned. Tories are terribly anxious about the fate of Ulster. One authority writes in this strain :—" Ulster, by the exercise of qualities to which the rest of Ireland is a stranger, has created for herself a great fabric of prosperity, standing in marked contrast to the condition of the Southern Provinces, and she contains, at the same time, a thriving and loyal population, very different from the population of those other Provinces which, on the Ministerial hypothesis, must be held to represent Ireland. Are we to hand over the smaller Ireland, which exhibits in so marked a degree all the virtues that pro- duce national prosperity, to the tender mercies of the larger Ireland, which exhibits so few of them ? That is the true state of the proposition, and that is the question which Mr GLADSTONE is really asking when he asks whether the Irish people shall be allowed to manage their own affairs." How terribly frightened the Tories are of any kind of reform When Ireland obtains Home Rule,. Ulster will be perfectly able to look after herself. The most influential of our Scotch contem- poraries alleges that the various utterances of members of the Government are attempts to bamboozle the electors. The issue they have to decide is, it contends, not whether there shall be an extension of self-govern- ment in Ireland; it is whether Mr GLAD- STONE'S whole plan shall be adopted. If," it goes on to say, "he should get the country on his side, the Home Rule plan— with the Land Purchase Bill included—will be reproduced, and the elector who aljows himself to be deceived on this point with the result of voting for a supporter of the Government does his bes4 to destroy the integrity of the United Kingdom." We refuse to bring ourselves to believe that the majority of the electors can possibly be misled or frightened after this fashion. The issue is one of the most simple ever placed before a people. It is—whether Ireland is to be allowed to govern herself or not. Mr GLADSTONE describes this as tho people's election, and he is convinced that the people will carry it tirropjfk in »*it« the defec- tion of chiefs. It is desirable on many grounds that this great controversy should be settled. The people understand the case, and it will be for them within the next few weeks to pronounce their verdict..
THE QUESTION OF THE HOUR.
THE QUESTION OF THE HOUR. THE Home Rule controversy is drawing the English and Irish people together. A better and happier understanding is growing up. The iron heel of English tyranny has been lifted from the neck of prostrate Erin, and the new democracy seems sincerely anxious to inaugurate a brighter and more promising era. Mr GLADSTONE has framed the articles of peace Ireland joyously accepts them, and the civilized world outside England gladly assents. But Great Britain is one of the high-contracting parties to the proposed treaty. Her represen- tatives in Parliament have refused to ratify the alliance. Therefore, Mr GLAD- STONE appeals to Great Britain herself. He has confidence in the country, and he asks, in the name of justice, that the cup of happiness may not be again dashed from the parched lips of long-suffering Ireland. Of course there are politicians who desire to dissuade the people from doing right. There are men who create difficulties, conjure up fears. But this experience is not new. Every great reform has encountered the most bitter opposition. Our fathers who insisted on Parliament being a representative institution, and not an aristocratic preserve, were obliged to show a stern front. The House of Lords doggedly opposed the Reform Bill, and it was only when it was seen that the people would resort to violence that the measure was passed. The military authorities had been consulted, but they assured the Govern- ment that the soldiers so strongly sympa- thised with the citizens that they could not be relied on. It was also stated that a man of some note in the Army was willing to take the field. Seeing how hopeless matters were, the nobles took fright, suffered the Reform Bill to become law, and so prevented a revolution. Fortunately, the people now possess so much political power that we are in no danger of being driven to ex- tremes. The country has only to make up its mind on any question, and Parliament will obey the mandate given to it. Many members who voted against the Home Rule Bill excused themselves on the ground that they had no authority from their consti- tuents. Mr GLADSTONE now means to get rid of any such pretext. He claims the decision of the electors on the Irish Question, and on the Irish Question alone. Either the nation is for Home Rule or it is not. The Tories and the Waste- Paper-Unionists, as Mr SEXTON humor- ously designates the Dissidents, affect to believe that the country is in favour of renewed coercion. They condemn Home Rule, and become hysterical regarding the safety of the Empire. We will credit the Waste-Paper men with sincerity. But the Tories are only playing a game. They do not consider that the Empire is in peril, or that the Ulster Protestants are in jeopardy. Less than a year ago distinguished Tories offered the Nationalists much more than is contained in Mr GLADSTONE'S Home Rule Bill. Lord CARNARVON conferred with Mr PARNELL, and the Irish leaders tell us that the Tories were then willing to give an Irish Parliament, protection to Irish industries, and a scheme of land purchase. Efforts are made to show that no understanding was arrived at but why was the Irish vote cast for the Tories ? If some tempting bait had not been thrown out would Irishmen have gone against the Liberal party, the prominent members of which advocated concessions ? Lord CAR- NARVON has not yet answered Mr GLAD- STONE'S pointed query—what did he say to Mr PABKELL 1 Certain it is that after the memorable interview the Irish leader preached protection, though he he does not now urge it because 0 it is distasteful to the English people. So long as the ex- Lord-Lieutenant preserves a discreet silence the public are constrained to admit the accuracy of Mr PARNELL'S version of the meeting, confirmed as it is by what passed I at an interview between Mr W. O'BRIEN and Mr HOWARD VINCENT, a trusted Tory scout. If Lord SALISBURY, Lord CARNARVON, and Lord RANDOLPH CHURCHILL were convinced of the justice of Home Rule last autumn, what has changed their views so wonderfully since ? If in August it was not inimical to the king. dom to set up a Parliament on College Green, why is it so wicked and dangerous at the present time ? The Irish people are no worse behaved now than then. There is no greater difficulty in carrying out the law, and, except for Orange rowdyism, quiet prevails throughout the island. Seeing that the Tory leaders accepted the principle of self-government in Ireland, their ravings at this moment are nothing better than a solemn farce. They are preaching an opposition crusade in which they have no faith at all. If the electorate had given them a majority in November, they would have erected the golden bridge which is to unite the English and the Irish democracies. But as the elec- tors were cruel and did not return more Tory than Liberal members, the Tory leaders have deserted the Irish, and wish to thwart Mr GLADSTONE in his generous attempt to solve the problem which has puzzled successive generations of statesmen. In many towns the Tories ha.ve not had the courage to bring forward a. man of their own political colour. They have taken in hand atlurnber of Liberal deserters who are thrust upon the notice of the constituencies. Such candidates must rely on the Tory vote, though it is by no means certain that all Tories will poll for renegade Liberals. Mr Mr H. R. BRAND has come down to Cardiff, and he struts about with the utmost assur. ance. In his own estimation he is a Liberal, but he knows perfectly well that without the Tory vote his position would be hopeless to the verge of ridicule. In his first speech a.t Cardiff, Mr BRAND made a strange assertion. He said GRATTAN'S Parliament was granted because the Irish were loyal, and there was no reason to be afraid. Mr Fox was the Minister whose duty it was to recognise American Inde- pendence, and if all had then been as pleasant in Ireland as Mr BRAND would have us believe, why was GRATTAN at the head of an agitation demanding Home Rule ? People glibly remark that the Irish Parliament railed. True. It failed as surely and as ignornm- iously as the Act of Union Jhas failed. But were Irishmen to blame because their Par- liament did not succeed? Was it their inability to conduct and manage a represen- tative institution that brought the Dublin Assembly to an end ? No. The Irish Par- liament was not a representative institution —it was less representative than the unre- formed Parliament in England. Only Protestants could sit in it, although ninety per cent, of the inhabitants of Ireland were Roman Catholics. The Irish House of Commons was in the hands of the landowners. In England there were corrupt boroughs, but in Ireland there were corrupt counties, and in a House of two hundred members, only 30 or 40 could be said to have been in any sense independent and representative. The Irish nation was fully alive to the defects in its Parliament, andWILLtAM PITT instructed Lord FIZWILLIAM to enter into an honourable understanding with HENRY GRATTAN, promising him that a Bill should be pas?.cd securing complete Catholic Emancipation, But this prospect of a happy future for Ireland vanished like an empty dream, and the foundations of the fabric of M*hd&txeat tmriftia vtfi lBJi too ftnnlj laiC. As has been said, a rapacious and sord id oligarchy stood between the Throne and the people." The BERESFORDS and FITZGIBBONS and others interested in perpetuating a cor. rupt system of government, succeeded in gaining the ear of Lord LOUGHBOROUGH, a lawyer whose memory has not descended to us consecrated. by an odour of sanctity. This per- sonage persuaded GEORGE III. that if he allowed Roman Catholics to sit in Parlia- ment he would commit a breach of his coronation oath. Thus Tory intrigue con- nived with regal stupidity in thwarting the most illustrious statesman of the age and, in denying common justice to Ireland, pro. vided an Irish difficulty for every genera- tion of English statesmen since. Everyone knows the immediate result of tho King's determination to allow no Catholics to sit in the Dublin Parliament. Lord FITZWILLIAM, unable to carry out the promise to GRATTAN, resigned office. The United Irishmen Club was formed, Protestants and Catholics joining it, and in 1798 a deplorable rebellion broke out, which was charac- terised by great brutality on both sides. It was after the Rebellion that PITT decided to abolish the Irish Parliament. But PITT'S expedient has proved disastrous. Irish national aspirations have long survived the parliament. Coercion Acts by the score have not suppressed nor intimidated the sturdy and persistent Celt. Imprison. ments without trial, long terms of penal servitude and banishment, have not deprived Ireland of patriots, but have greatly augmented their number. And the cry to. day is identical with the hopeless, helpless cry which O'CONNELL uttered in the English House of Commons in 1834. It has always been the same—ever Give us back our Parliament on College Green." Mr GLAD- STONE has devised a 0 parliamentary scheme which meets Irish wishes. It is for Great Britain to endorse the message of goodwill.
BRUTAL ASSAULT ON A j SOLDIER…
BRUTAL ASSAULT ON A SOLDIER AT WOOLASTONE. At Lydney police-court on Wednesday—before Mr G. B. Keeling, Major Cowburn, and the Rev F. Palcner — Thomas Prosser, Sydney Harris, Joseph Terrell, and Charles Cullimore, water- men, were summoned for assaulting Richard Richardscn, late private 1st Battalliou Cold- stream Guards, just returned from Egypt. Cullimore had a. quarrel with a man in the Woolastone Inn, and knocked him down. Richardson, who was a complete stranger to all present, remarked that Cullimore's conduct was cowardly, whereupon the four defendants set upon him, and beat him in a merciless manner. His back and ribs were bruised, his nose broken, his head kicked, and his eye cut severely, and his clothes destroyed by blood and dirt. His wife, who was with him, was pushed into a brook and otherwise ill-treated while some of the defendants were holding her husband down, and jumping1 on him. He, however, succeeded in punishing them rather severely, Prosser being nearly blinded.— Tho bench fined Prosser and Cullimore £2 each and 10s costs, and Terrell and Harris were discharged. There wera other charges arising out of the same affair.

At Pontypridd police-court, on Wednesday, Richard Evans, alias Dicky Puddler," a well- known pugilist in the Rhondda, who has been before the court 30 or 40 times, was charged with being drunk and riotous. Defendant was very obstreperous in court, and said that he would fight P.C. Lewis if he would have six months for it. He also threw his head gear about, and swore loudly in the dock, and demeaned himself alto- gether in a most ruffianly fashion. The bench fined him 20s and costs and, in default, sent him to gaol.

HOME RULE DEMONSTRATION IN…
HOME RULE DEMON- STRATION IN LONDON. :00 SPEECH BY MR SEXTON. A demonstration, under the auspice of the British Home Rule Association, was held at St. James's Hall, on Wednesday evening, in support of the metropolitan candidates who favour the Irish policy of the Government. Lord Sandhurst presided, and several members of Parliament attended. The hall was well.filled with an enthusiastic audience, including a. large propor- tion of Irishmen. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, spoke of Lord K. Churchill's manifesto. He expressed the opinion that a more contemptible document never came from the pen of any man who called himself a statesman, and there never was a more miserable attack made upon a states- man in the position of Mr Gladstone, who was a statesman when Lord Randolph Churchill was in his cradle, and whose shoes Lord Randolph was not worthy to black. (Loud cheers.) The Rev THEOPHILUS BENNETT, a Protestant clergyman of Tipperary, moved a resolution in favour of Homs Rule, which Mr G. E. GIBB, M..P. for East St. Pancras, seconded. Mr SEXTON, M.P., who was greeted with loud cheers and waving of hats, rose to support the resolution. He said he was glad, as an Irish representative, of the opportunity afforded to him to address at that tremendous crisis that great assembly of the electors of the boroughs of London. The question before th„.n concerned not alone the honour and interests of Great Britain, but the peace and the happiness of the country which es- pecially he loved. (Cheers.) He was glad I, to be able to say that tbe people of Ireland had already good cause to be grateful to the people of that great metropolis. He did not forget that the first use made of tbe democratic franchise in the boroughs of London was to return a Conservative majority—(hisses, and cries uf Never again ")~but Irishmen might be excused if, considering the circum- stances of the time, they did not regard that return as an unwise calamity. Lord Salisbury, as they knew, in his Newport speech discussed the Irish question with reference to the system of separate Parliaments in Austro-Hungary, and they knew that later, in a speech in the GUIld. hall, Lord Salisbury indicated his willingness to consider such a measure of native rule for Ireland as might be found consistent with the interests of the empire and of the Crown. (Hear, hear.) Therefore his hearers would understand why the Irish party should not have regarded the return of a. Conservative majority for London as a matter for lamentation. (Laughter.) Had Lord Salisbury won 30 more seats—had be won as many as would have made him independent of the Hibernian Orange Fran- kenstein-he (Mr Sexton) had not the least doubt that before this time he would have brought for- ward a Home Rule bill of his own. (Applause.) Some of the Tory leaders were tenderly nursing a Home Rule Bill last winter, and it might have proved a successful bill, but that was nipped by by the untimely frost of the general election. (Laughter and cheers.) The moment Lord Salis- bury found the result of the election did not answer to his hope's of power, be resolved upon a policy of Jim Crow. (Laughter.) Home Rule came to betobim amostaceursedthingaandnow theyknew that bis way to make Ireland free and the Irish people happy was to get rid of as many of them as he could beyond the sea—(shame)—and to scourge the remainder of them for 20 years— (groans)—with the scorpions of coercion into quiet and dumb submission. Cries of "Never," and applause.) If Lord Salisbury could accept a policy of Jim Crow, so also could the Irish party. (Loud cheers.) But there was a better man than he—one whose mind was opened visibly for many years towards the statesmanlike settlement of the Irish question one in whose honour the Irish had confidence- (cheers)—one in whose capacity they trusted. He bad appealed to this country to enable him to do justice to Ireland, and assist Ireland and the Irish electors to stand in the position of the Liberal party, and he (Mr Sexton) would tell them that Ireland was solid with them now— (cheers)—and that they were more heartily and fervently united with the Liberal party than ever they were heartily against them. (Cheers.) He reminded him that at the last election, leaving out the University, London returned 25 Liberals. How many of them deserted ? (Cries of "Two.") Two, and 23 voted for the second reading. The Liberal members of London were more faithful to their leader than any other part of England, Scotland, or Wales; and if the measure of fidelity to their great Prime Minister had been spread all over Great Britain as it was in the metropolis, the second reading of the bill would have been carried by a majority of a hundred. (Cheers.) So the Irish had cause to be frateful, and they had cause for hope in the liberals of London at the election now at hand. (Cheers.) He believed that there were no dissen- tients among the Liberals of London now, but that they were all for Home Rule, and all for the Grand Old Man. (Loud cheers.) They could win 15 seats, which would count for 30 in a division, and thus the metropolis had it in its power to extinguish at a single blow the majority by which the Prime Minister was defeated. The policy of the Prime Minister did not disrupt but consolidated and fortified the empire, and tended to the development of well ordered free- dom, and the multiplication of the blessings that fell from it upon the lives of men. (Cheers.) Mr Goschen—(hisses and groans)—who persisted in considering this great national question in the spirit of a money lender advised by a petty- fogging attorney—(laughter)—asked what were Irish affairs, meaning by his crafty question to suggest there was some difficulty in separating Irish from Imperial affairs. But no such diffi- culty was found in the case of Canada, of South Africa, of Australia, or of the islands round the English coast. (Cheers.) When Mr Obamberlain-(hisses)-said that the men of the Northern States of America fought to maintain the Union, the illustration was intended to mis- lead the people, because the men of the North did not fight to maintain the kind of union that existed between Great Britain and Ireland, but to maintain that union which he and that vast assembly were endeavouring to promote for Ireland. (Cheers.) The principle of the Government Bill was that Ireland should be trusted to manage her own affairs, but itjs opponents not having the courage to face it, strove to hide it in a wilderness of details. They had to deal with carping critics and prophets of evil, but Lords Kimberley, Spencer, and Carnar- von were all in favour of the principle of the bill, and there was but one man who had ever held the office of Viceroy of Ireland who had ventured to say a word against it, and that was Lord Cowper. (Hisses.) All the criticisms of the opponents of the bill rested upon the assumption that England was a nation of paralytics, and that Ireland was a nation of idiots—(laughter)—that Great Britain was peopled by the lame and the halt, and that Ireland was inhabited by the blind, that a people who carried their flag to the ends of the earth, and planted progres- sive colonies in all parts of the globe were too feeble to protect themselves from an island at their doors, and that the people of Ireland were reckles and rash enough to bring about their destruction. (Laughter and cheers.) A just and practical settlement of the Irish question, such as that which ihe Prime Minister had in substance proposed, would be admitted in Ireland. With that valuable quality of common sense of which Lord Randolph Churchill said so much, and of which he had so little— (laughter and cheers)—— Mr Gladstone now saw that the" Irish members were not men marching through plunder to dis- memberment, but marching through necessary social reforms to well ordered freedom. (Cheers.) The Ballot Act of Mr Gladstone set free the conscience of the Irish serf, the two Land Acts gave the Irish peasant a foothold upon his native soil, and the 1 ranchise Act admitted him within tho of the constitution 5 and those measures together had enabled the Irish people to struggle on in their own land until that auspicious hour, when, by the forms of the constitution, they laid their national claims before the people of Great Brltam with the most splendid prospect of success. (Cheers.) The so-called Unionists were not Unionists at all. They had been called Paper Unionists, and he should call them" waste paper' Unionists. (Laughter and cheers.) The Liberals of London owed a duty to Ireland and their great leader, and to his question, "Shall Ireland be allowed to manage her own affairs?" they should answer "Yes." By that answer they would vindicate in the eyes of a sympathising world the policy and the career of the greatest and wisest, the boldest and the most far-seeing of their statesmen. (Cheers.) They would vindicate his policy against the jealousy of faction and against the ribaldry of presumptuous impudence —(cheers)—and especially against such attacks as that which had proceeded from Lord Randolph Churchill, who appeared in his public conduct to take a peculiar and unenviable pride in exhibiting a detestable combination of the manners of the street Arab and the morals of the Welsher. (Ap- plause.) He (Mr Sexton) felt assured they would answer "yes to the Prime Minister's question ? and that their answer would reverberate to the north of Scotland, and bring peace and joy to Ireland. That answer would give his unfortunate country freedom, peace, and a chance of pros- perity in the future, and it would confer upon the empire the only impregnable security that any empire could have—the security that rested upon the voluntary union of a contented band of free men. (Loud and continued cheers.) The resolution was carried by acclamation, there being but one band held up in opposition. A further resolution was also enthusiastically adopted, cordially thanking Mr Gladstone for his lone and unflinching support to the cause of the Irish, and the proceedings terminated at-a late hour. t i.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES. [n A SOOTH WALES AGRICULTURIST.] Oar Irish friends complain of the restrict placed upon the importation of Irish cattle an f stock, weU knowing that numerous outbreak 0 pleuro occur from animals brought from tbere, but the Irish Privy Council still, according the Live Stock JTOur rial, prohibit the import" of animals from England and Scotland.

The French chamber, according to the same authority, have been discUSSjøg the effect of the prohibition of French cattle ÍJlt3 England. It is..said that the export trade, tfb'c amounted to 181,411 head about twenty SefS> ago, had been almost annihilated owing to tbíf prohibition. The British Government rectairtl evidence that disease does not exist in France ere removing the same. Only two have now cases of foot-and-mouth disease, it IS 1 true but 169 centres are infected with pl«or0' and upwards of 800 inoculated have been in contact with the sla^ tered animals. Under these circumstances France can hardly expect England to the prohibition; moreover, it would reversing the policy whIch. experience has tanf'1'. ns is the safest, i.e., that of the slaughter of animals that have been in contact with &lie diseased cattle. To adopt it in the case of our o.,ø herds and then reverse it in the case of herds affected, would be the height of folly. The Agricultural Holdings' Act seems to _or in a very lame and inefficient and counties or districts that have no well lated custom or agreements, are putting th'lf trust in a broken reed if they depend upoot^J act for fair compensation for tbe unexbau9^ manures and outlay made by the tenant. Messrs Burnyeat took a farm under & Lonsdale in Cumberland in 1862 of 224 »cte>i which they held till 1886. The farm was when they took it; the annual rent £340. tenants laid down a portion in pasture, a11 otherwise improved the farm, converting it frofll a poor farm into a farm in first-class conditIOn. The rent was raised from time to time, and it "I\S ultimately valued at JEMO annual rent. ^ie< some discussion it was lowered to £444. tenants gave up the farm in February last. an claimed £816 10s 4d from the landlord as sationforunexhausted manures and improvemeptS. £300 of this was for laying down thirty a.cres ¡ ore in permanent pasture. Arbitrators and tltnPld were appointed, and several witnesses Messrs Burnyeat reduced their claim leaving their nett claim £516 10s 4d. Aftøt" due consideration of the case, the umpire aw>r* the sum of £ 133 5s 3d as the full amount of cop1 pensation due to the tenants. This wo^ I imagine, about pay their costs in tIl' case.

For'0 stance, a tenant enters a farm, and under tb' oldest custom existing pays for lime applied; under the Act of 1883, unless the tenant &vet notice to lime, he loses all claim. Many t know nothing of the Act, and continue to litnB IU ignorance.

The Cyfarthfa and Llansan d herds may well feel proud of even taking secoll t in such company, when Hereford men bring °u their "best trumps "to do battle for the coun^ prizes, which are somewhat akin to breeders wb a prize at the great Yorkshire show is to shor horn breeders. I am glad also to see that grand old Hereford herd at Pencreeg, Mon., br d with such steady ability by the present owner his late father, have scored two firsts for a bo and heifer. This is a feather in his cap, and mistake. The piemier bull, "Maidstone," 3,0 cow, Sunflower," simply came and won, a3 tbe? have done db many occasions, and will do doubtless on many more. The Dairy Conference at Derby proved a success. Valuable papers were read and dlS cussed, and the results given of experiments on feeding dairy cows instituted by Lord under the direction of a committee of the D=,lr1 Farmers' Association. The result arrived at hy these experiments was that an excess of f°0. over and above what the animal can assimilate 18 over and above what the animal can assimilate 18 wasted." This will be explained more fully bY the following:—On March 11th one lot of cows. received food of the value of 6s 8jd per week I a second lot, food of the value of 8s llJ,d per week a third lot, food of the value of 118 3d per week. After weighing the animal3 and the milk produced, the conclusion arrived at was that all the extra food given lots two and three over and above the value of that given to lot one was wasted, or at least only con- tained in the improved value of the manure. Mr Nuttall, of "Stilton cheese" celebrity, was of opinion that a considerable increase in milk and condition was due to mixing bo'ling water with the dry food, which practically cooked it and pre pared it for digestion. He also stated that, with the sanction of Lord Vernon, he waS continuing an experiment with 30 cows on grass. The result of this experi- ment will help to solve the question as to how far it is desirable in a. dairy breeding herd to supplement grass with artificial food, In a mere dairy herd, where animals are simply bought to milk, and afterwards disposed of to the butcher, no question can arise as to the desirability of increasing the condition of the animal towards the end of its dairy career but the case is different in a breeding dairy herd. Lord Vernon has earned the thanks of the community, and it may be fairly said of him that he recognises the maxim that property has its duties as well as ita rights. Mowing has commenced, but the seeds and sainfoin are not in full bloom, the cold untoward weather retarding the ripening of the crops. Sainfoin and clover promise to be heavy, and several fields are much laid. Grass crops will prove heavy, as the recent rain has thickened the bottom grass, and with bright sunshine and heat we may reasonably expect a heavy crop, Pastures have a full bite for stock.
BROWN V. THE G.W.R. COMPANY.
BROWN V. THE G.W.R. COMPANY. In the High Court of Justice, Queen's Bench Division, on Wednesday:—before Justices Grove and Grantham—an application was made in the case of Brown v. the Great Western Railway Company, which was an action brought to recover damages for personal injuries. At the trial at Swansea the jury awarded the plaintiff £750 damages, and the present application on behalf of the defendant company was to reduce the verdict from £750 to £708, it being alleged that th, plaintiff had at the trial consented to such a reduction. The plaintiff said, however, that hf had only consented to the reduction on condition that the company proceeded no further. The case had, however, been before the Divisional Court on a motion for a new trial, which WM refused. Nothing was said about the reduction of damages on that occasion, although it wai made a ground of complaint against the jury that they bad given mora expenses than the claimed. Mr David appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr Asquith for the defendant company, Ultimately it was arranged that the verdict foi £7bO should stand, and that there should ba n< costs on either side in regard to the £42.
