EARL SPENCER AT NEWPORT.
EARL SPENCER AT NEWPORT. Earl Spencer, ex-Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, addressed a public meeting at Newport, on Wednesday night last, ostensibly with the purpose of strengthening the positions of the several Radical members, and can- didates in South Wales and Monmouthshire, and particularly to endeavour to convert the 465 majority, which Sir George Elliott, secured at the last election for the cause of the Union, into a minority. The friends of the Union could not possibiy wish for the selection by their opponents of a person estimated to do less injury to Conservatism than Earl Spencer. His lordship made a long speech, which must be looked upon as one teeming with incon- sistencies and misconceptions, so palpable and glaring that we doubt whether the swallowing powers of even our Radical friends were found equal to the occasion. On the question of Disestablishment, his lordship could only say that the fate of the Church should lie on the wishes of the majority of the people of Scotland and Wales. Passing on to the question of tithes, Earl Spencer considered it was a very complicated matter. In his opinion, tithes ought to be paid entirely by the land- lord, and the tenant ought not to have what really amounts to an equivalent of two rents to pay." His lordship further thought" itwould be a great advantage to have this question satis- r3 Z5 factorily settled, that some of the difficulties which exist should be smoothed over, and if this kind of property (meaning the tithes) which is State property, though now given to tlte Established Church were put on a satis- factory and firm footing." Now, according to Lord Spencer's own words, the tithe is of the nature of rent, and therefore the property of the landlord. Again, he claims it as State property now given to the Church It must be one of the two both it cannot be by any known mode of reasoning. If it is rent the State has no more property in it than in any other species of rent. If tithes have been given by the State te the Church (as is the only logical conclusion to be drawn from his lordship's latter words), then we ask when, and by what enactment or decree were they so bestowed upon the Church 1 We cannot recognise the authority of the State to interfere before that is proved, not by the sheer force of assertion, but by the production of the Acts creating and investing this nronertv in the Church. Failing this, we maintain that no Government has a right to meddle with the tithe, more than it has with the rightful property of any other corporation or 0 individual member of the State. The only resolution passed at this meeting, if it indicates anything, points out above all, the supremely ridiculous arrogance of the Newport Radicals-an arrogance that can hardly be equalled, certainly not excelled. In this unique resolution they called upon the Government (and be sure of this, they were now inearnest,for," they meant what they said") to dissolve Parliament at the earliest possible moment." Feeling, doubtless, that his friends exceeded the ordinary dictates of common sense, Earl Spencer endeavoured to palliate their presumption by alluding to the results of the bye-elections as a reason for the appeal. But what do these elections of a truth .teach us] We find that since the general election in 1886, no less than fifty-seven contested elections have taken place in the country. The total number of votes recorded in favour of the Gladstonian candidates at these fifty- seven elections was 200,430, and for the Unionists 191,964, as against 185,064, and 181,710 respectively in 1886. From these figures it will be seen that the Gladstonians have gained 15,366 votes on their previous record while the Unionists have gained 10,524 votes, leaving a net gain of 4,842 votes only to the Gladstonians in fifty-seven elections. During the same period the Unionists have carried thirteen constituencies without a contest as against six similarly captured by the Separatists. Such being the case, we fail to see how the bye-elections afford any reason whatever why the present Government should renounce the trust confided to it by the country, with so large a majority in 1886, and which has not since been perceptibly reduced. Ireland, of course, formed the staple portion of the noble lord's speech. Invited to approve of the conduct of Messrs Dillon and O'Brien in flying from the ends of justice, his lordship was shrewdly silent on this head. One thing at any rate is evident. If some of his lord- ship's allies in Ireland are daily guilty of the grossest contempt, and others elect to forfeit their recognisances, and fly the country to evade punishment for their crimes, Earl Spencer pays the same respect to the Tipperary Court as would be done to any Court in England. His lordship was also frank enough to admit that considerable pro- gress had been made by that. country under the Unionist Government. This he could not very well deny, for it is a notorious fact that no Government has been so successful in its administration of Ireland, and that no Govern- ment so ignominiously failed as that of Mr Gladstone between 1880 and 1885. The con- dition of this unfortunate country during these years is well-known to our readers. What was its state when the reins of office were handed over by the Conservatives in 1880, as the result of that General Election? Mr Gladstone himself is in evidence. In March of that year he said" he was able to call attention to the absence of crime and out- rage, and to a general sense of comfort and 0 15 satisfaction amongst the Irish people." To restore Ireland to the same much desired state is now Mr Balfour's aim, and he is steadily effecting the change. It is to be hoped that 0 Z3 when it has become a triumph, as triumph it must, the country will not again put the Government into the hands of those persons that so lamentably failed in the past.
ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.
ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. The journal of the above Society, published on the 30th September, contains, amongst others, a valuable article on the advantages of covered yards in farm steadings. To our readers this article should be of especial interest, living as they do in an excessively damp climate, and where the configuration of the ground lends itself in most instances to the deterioration of the manure heap. How often do we see that invaluable portion of the farmer's capital scattered about the yard with- out an attempt being made to collect and consolidate it, to check the evaporation of ammonia, or to prevent its most precious constituents from being washed away and wasted? Mr Moscrop reminds us that by the use of covered yards we gain not only in the health and well-doing of stock, and in economy in the amount of food consumed, but in the actual value of the manure, which is concen- trated by the treading of the beasts and pre- served from injury by rain water so as to be worth, according to some authorities, double the value of ordinary open yard manure.
