CONSERVATIVE DEMONSTRATION IN LLEVN. On Tiles lay last, the hon. Member for the County (Major Pennant) visited the soiitli-weateiii division of Carnarvonshire, where he nist with a warm aud enthu- siastic reception. He left Nanhoron iu the in. riMMg, accompanied by R. Lloyd Edwards. Esq., and Ch"ies Bulkeley, E-q., and proceeded to Sirn, where a number of people had congregated together, and gave vent M their feelings by cheering, and other maiked demonstra- tions of applause. From there they went to Pon- llech, Llangwnadl, Carreg, and A berdaron, where hun- dreds of people from the surrounding districts had met together to pay their tribute of respect to the Conserva- tive candidate. Upon their return to Sarn, flags were waving in all directions, and the greatest euthusiasm was evinced. They then returned by way of Liangian, Aber- soch, Llanbedrog, and Pwllheli. This will contradict the ridieulous rumours which are abroad, invented for party purposes, as for instance that the respected Squire of Nanhoron and his friends were rather roughly handled by the people, &c., which had no foundation whatever. On the contrary the people manifested their joy to the fullest extent, notwithstanding the expressions some- times made use of in certain quarters towards li-heii Doris creulon ¡¡na."

LIBERAL MEETING AT PORTMADOC, A public meeting of the supporters of Mr Jones Parry, the Liberal candidate for Carnarvonshire, was held in the Town Hall, Portmadoc, on Friday evening, the 16th inst. ) The carriage containing the candidate, and a num- ber of his friends was drawn by the people through Tremadoc and Portmadoc, up to the lIall. t'tie meeting was presided over by Ignatius Williams, Esq., Heudre- gadredd, and addresses were delivered by Mr J one.Parry, Mr Samuel Holland, Mr E. Breese, Rev. Win. Ambrose, Kev. Thomas Owen, Rev. William Jones, Mr Robert Rowlands, Mr Hugh Pugh, Pwllheli, Mr Oweu Morris, &,c. Resolutions were p.vs^.«d p'ed^in^ the t,,) support the election of Mr Jones-Parry, and th inking him for coming forward as a candidate.

Di-iinkeiincss.-Williiiiii Thomas, Robert Jonea, John Joues, and Frances Jones (the latter having had to be can;cd to the lockup on a stretcher) were severally Hne(t Is and costs.—Richard Rowlaud*, who had g.ven a fei,;ne I name to the oiHcer when caught in the act of ??Ht?gO!ttht']Bt,o{Oct.)Ler,audirtd!'incfbee? apprehended by warrant, was likewise rctpured to pay la and costs. A Barber in Trouble.—John Francis, a hairdresser in Hi.zi -street, was chared by P.C. 36, John Moiris, with drunkenness. The officer stated that he was talking with Mr Evans, the watchmaker, in his shop, about six o'clock on the afternoon of the 5th, when tlie defendant came up, and after shaking hauds with Ir Evans, struck him (witne-a) on the face, from which blood flowed after- wards the defendant was drunk. Thomas Evans was cat.ed, aud said thit Francis came up to himself and the policeman, and turned the policeman's uose up with his hand, but blood came from this gentle ope: atiou, and the P.O.'s hat als ) fell )it'. The defendant was about half and half drunk.—For the defence, a Griffith Williams gave as his version that the policonnn put his stiuk up and also pushed the defeudaut on the breast, and that he (tho poliœmn) was not struck at all; he h.d onlv slightly put the defendant's n"B" up. A friend here remarked privately, that it was the defendant's ulIsi, ness to take hold of nuSe" (when shaving), but nevertheless, on the transfer of the charge from drunkenness, upon which the magistrates would not convict, to that of assault, he was ordered to pay 2s Oi and the expenses. Shooting in the Highway. — The officer who ciiii. plained in the last case, also charged Ellis Williams, a hawker of tea, under the highway act, with tiring s (hallle barrelled gun neir tht ¡.tatjoll,- I}: i.tlll' oil expressing regret for his conduct, and promising not to transgress again, was let off on payiug 4s 6,1 costs. Borough Election Polling.—Mr John Hughes, soli-, citor read a petition, as follows To Her Majesty's Justices of the Peace, acting in and for the Pivisioa of Uangorin the County of (Jaruarv >»). — The petition of the undersigned electors for the Borough of B mgor-:ihowcth that by the 34th Section of the 30 and 31 Vic., c 102, it is i enacted that the local autho- ity of every borough sit ill, i, they think couvenionce requires it, as soon ao may be after tiit) passing of this act divide such borough into ¡;oIling di,tdct::l, and thd returning ofliccr shall in the case of a contested election provide at least oue booth or ruu,n for taking the poll in such polling districts, liy the same section it is enacted th .t the Justices of the Peice fur the division in which the borough is situate shall I" here there are no borough justices; be the local authority for i tiie borough, ihat there are i'l the Parliamentary lloiough of Lainfor 1,181. votes, inclusive of five within the parish of Man- degai. Your petitioners therefore pray that your woiships will 111 ike an order, under the provisions of the said act, dividing the borough into such polling districts as may seem to your worships most convenient. And your petitioners will ever pray, &c. This was signed by an influential number of elect us. Mr tiughes argued that it would save time, annoyance, "ud a dcal of trouble to the voters at large, if there were four polling booths for the borough of M.ingor, instead of one as heretofore. At the National Schoolroom, which was the only polling place at the last contested election when there were only 40l) voters, the crush and crowd were most inconvenient, and it was with great difficulty that the voters pol ed. Mr Foulkes thought that- three polling booths would be amply suiffcient. If they had more, it would be au unnecessary expense on the candi- dates. He remembered peif^ctly well that at the last contested election, the polling was over before one o'clock. lie proposed that the Natioual School should do for Lower Hangor, Ilirael and liarth, ami ttha the Rechabite Hall should serve the voters for Glaua.ldaaud Upper Hangor. Aftei, soine further arg orientativo con- versation, the magistrates decided in favour of Mr Hughes's scheme, that there should be four polling booths. Mr 15. Hughes was the only dissentieut on the bench. The returning oiffjer (Llewelyn Turner, Esq.) has the power of deciding in which part of the city the booths shall be erected. Stealing a ???<!—T'/tC Proudly lot again. — Wm 1'roudlfy; a noted character, was brought up for tin? above oll'once.

As the seven o'clock 'busgot to the Railway Hotel onThursday night. h\ saw the d1)pr of tlJe 'lHIS Jockeli and the u\J¿le in,lè, i preparatory to its going into the tittio(i yitr,l to itieet ttit! train. Afterwards it was missed. The lad had seen Proudley and another man hanging about the yard, suspiciously. This witness's evidence was corroborated in part by William Jones, a servant man of Mr Littler s. P.O. John James Hughes deposed to apprehending the prisoner about nine o'clock on Thursday night at Meuai Bridge with the bugle in his possession. The prisoner, in his defence, called William Uweil, Francis Piou Hey, and Jaue Evans, who all sworetuat he had picked the hoia up on the road from the hotel t > the station. The prisoner was convicted and sent to prison for fourteen days. Revenge and Retributive Justice.—Jan<> Evans, a known prostitute, who appealed as a wimeas iu thi; defence of Proudley in tue hist case was, diicctly after it was dispo&i: 1 of, might up ontne charge of a-ault- j i;,g Hugh J 11H;tlH: p: ineipal witness ior tiie prosecution in the same case, and also kicking a police officer, imme- diately on gettiug out of court. She bad threatened to kill the boy for giving his evidence, and saying that he had been the cause of i'roudley going t, gaol, gave him a kick in the side. She had likewise kicked the officer when he took her. Ordered to go to g w! for six weeks /?'0)'(?)'? jTnMM.—Kichard HngheB, of the Hh,'k Lion inn, jaam'airfechan, was lined for permitting drunkenness in his house.. Transfer of License.-Phe license of the Quarryman's Arm. Llanfairfechan, was transferred to a Richard Hughes. Petty Larcenies,—Maria Hayes, an elderly woman, was charged with stealing from Rroumenai, Uaith, several kitchen utensils,—some of them belougiug to the present occupier, Mr I'Iiillip, ;end others to the late resident theie, Mrs Pope,— Sarah a domestic, deposed that the artich-s in question were safe on Saturday night, the lotil. in the back yar 1, but l.h»-y were missed on the Sunday moruiug following.—P.C. I John Morris proved apprehending the prisoner, and finding in her possession the stoleu property, which was produced in court. The Fame prisoner was also charged with stealing from Clilf Cottage, where Mrs Magnus resides, a door mat and tl »wer pot which were missed at the same time as the other property in the previous case, and were likewise found in the prisoner's posses- sion by Morris, when he took her into custody. The prisoner said that she was guilty of receiving them, but not of stealing as she had not been near either of the places. The bench convicted, and sentenced her to undergo one month's imprisonment, in each case, j Poaching,—William Hughes, a miller, who did not appear,wa-icharged with this offence, on hud belonging to Lord Pei) I'lly it. -Jzttij es Kent, a keep-r, stated that he saw the defendant trying three gates with nets, and a dog, on Mr Lewis's farm, at Aber, about oil, o'clock on the morning of the 11th.

J THE ANGLESEY" BOROUGHS ELECTION. A large and influential meeting of the electors was held at the Market Hall, Holyhead, on Thursday after- noon, the Mndiustant, for the purpose of supporting the candidature of the Honble. William Owen Stanley fur these boroughs. Dr Walthew having been moved to the chair, ex- pressed his regret that the Hon. W. 0. Stanley was opposed in these boroughs, and that by a Liberal candi- date. He was still the more surprised when an oppos: ciou was raised to a gentleman like :\[r St-tnJe, wI. if an inhabitant of the place and well known and resr and fjr whom all had a great regard a gentle- had, during a piriiaur-ntary career of tweaty e* uniformly and consistently supported the LP j and who, though he did not trouble the H, tuonswi h long speeches, was a thoiough ness, and 1/id great inlfuence in the house..wl then briefly alluded to the part Air qtiii) ,a(it:tkeii in what was called the tea-room meeting, and said that but 1'or hiui the Reform Uill of 180/ would probably hHe been throw i over. He conebuicd by moving, That this meeting having retard p the long and faith- fulserviees of the Hen. W xi, Stanley, M.P. as Member ber for the Anglesey troughs, pledges itself to support him at the coming elei tion." The motion was sec tided by the Rev. Win, Griffith, and carried unanimously with great enthusiasm. The Hon. W. 0. St,- .ey, M P., then addressed the meetiug, aud said it wa now thirty-one years since some of thwse preseut in that, room had supported him in a contest for the county o" Anglesey, at a time when the Tories attempted to wle ,t the representition of the county from the hands of f ')e Liberal party, and when he was returned by the free v .1 of all who ail vocate Jilleral principles. At-that time Wb"ll liberalism bad uot gained that ascendancy which it n J-V had, he was oue of a small hand who voted brought forward in the House for an exteiisi,- of the franchise, and who always supported measures tor the removal of disabilities ou account of religious oc. ctions. He had hoped that his long services as their n: ubor would have prevented any opposition to him, e i:tl ly from a Liberal. After expressing his satisfaction that the electors of the county had selected Mr 1).ivies as their iiieiljbt-r, WI) I, in consequence of the absence of ail oppojitioc; would pro- bably,be returned unopp fSed, the hon. gentleman briefly I sketche,1 the history of the Reform Lill of 1807, and alluded to the tea-roam meeting, when it was de- cided not to support the resolutions to be brought for- ward by Mr Coleridge. He stated that if those re&olu- I tioll" had been carried, the Ministry would have resigned or dissolved rarhament, or abandoned the Reform Bill, and in any case no measure of ref orm woul,1 probably have been carried for several years With regard to Wales, he regretted that owing to the neglect of the Church in times past, about eight or nine- tenths of the population had become dissenters. The hon. gentleman bridly touchecl al", Oil tax ltion and economy, aud the question oi the education of the poor. It was theu announced that Mr Stanley would address the electors in the Alai ket-hall, at eight p.m., when a Idresses woidd be delivered in Welsh and English. A large and influential cointuittee. was formed.

I LOCAL AND DISTRICT. The number of voters in the Denbighshire Boroughs is 2,7S5 -Wrexhatn, 1,56; Denbigh, S21; Kuthin, 520; Holt, 1S5. Mr Sorton Parry, High Sheriff of Carnarvon, who wooed the constituency of Bury St. Edmunds' (Suffolk) in the Liberal intere-st, has retired from the contest' He had come forward as the representative of the ex- treme Kadicals, but the Liherdl Hittig member (Mr Hardcastle) never coalesced with him. Tut: GKNLUAL ELECTION.—It is understood that the writs for the general election will be issued on the 11th of November. The borough nominations will take place on tlie IGtli, ar.l the polling on the 17th. In the cutiii- ties the nominations will take place on the 18th, and the pulling on the 2nth.

I)ittiii j the present week a fellow rep'.c.entin^ nimself t o' agent in advance of Woiiibwoll's Menagerie, pre s. ;ited himself iu ii.ia^or and made a. call upon several tradesmen to whom he promised exten.-ive j it's, when t ii i niena«erio should enter tlie town, as he said it would j;i a lew d.iys. His o'.jeet without doubt was to obtain a cm or two of money, and iu one or two instances, we (.••Sieve, he succeeded in extracting small sums from tii ise he was about to enrich, but ho did not sueeceJ to any extent, and quickly iiiallo himself scarce. The John Mull .quoting the recent circular of the Welsh Reform Association says When such is tie violence of the Liberal Dissenters in Wales, Lord Pen- rliyn is more than justified in refusing to give land for the maintenance of a Nonconformist cliapol, as to which ho is now being subject to violent abuse on the part of the Liberals. When will these worthies learn that granting perfect liberty of conscience is one thing, and helping what you think wrong is another ? Next Lord l'enrhyn will be expected, we presume, to attend Dis- senting meetings and take the chair at class meetings. No landlord has done more than Lord Peurhyn for the tempoi al comfort of all the people on his estate while in lesturing aud building churches, he has acted munifi- eently. But to ask him to subscribe to every Noncon- foi mist meeting,huuse, and abuse him if he does not do so, is outrageous. A LAMP FOR THE POST-OFFICE.- Ithas been suggested to us that the Board of Health by applying to the Post, master General might obtain a lamp-post (or the cost thereof) to indicate the whereabouts of the Post-office in this town, which iq the present darkness which pre- vails at night in this particular part of the town, is by no means an easy object of discovery to those who are unaware of its exact topographical situation. AGIUCULTU/IAL SALES.—During the past week several important agricultural sales have taken place, conducted by Messrs E. A. Owen and Son, of Carnarvon, with con- siderable success. Notwithstanding the depressed state of the markets, these sales were well attended, and com. manded high prices. Horses and sheep ranged high, and the hay aud straw especially fetched such prices as has not been witnessed for many years, averaging about, X4 5s per ton. SOCIETY FaIt THE PROPAGATION OF THE GosrEL.—A public meeting on behalf of this society was held yester- day (Friday), at the National Schoolroom, Hangor. The Lord Bishop of the Diocese presided, and there was a large attendance, including many clergymen. The meet- ing Was addressed by the right rev. Chairman the Lord Bishop of Oxford the Rev. D. W. Thomas, organizing Dioeesan Secretary the Dean of Bangor Archdeacons Wynne Jones and Evans; the Kevs. Jno. l'ryce, juuior vic;irof Baiigor,and E,I'Ligho,aiid Ur Frank Lloyd Elwaids, The speech of the Bishop of Oxford was very earnest and eloquent, aud created a great im- [ pression upon the audience. A c illectiuii on iiehalf of the society was ma le at the close of the meeting. We am compelled to deter our report of the proceedings till ii(-xt week. The cullectiou at tbe cluse oi the meeting amounted to £ 10 us (id. The collectors were the llev. 0. F. Jones, minor canon, Mr John Parry, draper, and Mr Hiehard Foulkes, sacrist. S'r, MARY'S CHURCH, BANGOR.—Most impressive ser- vices were held in the above church this week, the rcc .s.i.n being the annual harvest thanksgiving, which w is celebrated with great success. On Tuesday evening tliei e were Welsh prayeis, and the liev. James Rowlands, redur of IJuttwnog, gave a good and eloquent address. The d> eolations of the Church displayed excellent taste and dtsign. They were composed of appropriate texts, woiki; 1 iu ears of wheat and moss, sheaves of grain, spiajs of ferns, geraniums, hops, mountain ash, acorns, &c., and on a fair white linen cloth was illumina- ted, 1 aLu ttio, Bread of Life." Morning prayers, iu Wel.*li, »t tight o'clock, were of a cheering and hearty character. At eleven o'clock, the Litany was said in English, by the Kev. John l'ryce, vicar, and a truly ad- mirable sermon preached by the Hev. David Lewis, of 'I'rufLt;ttit, oil NN'bat shall I render unto the Lord for all His hemfilstowanls me," The Venerable Archdeacon Evn;, the It v D. 11 -wis, the ]t.v J. l'ryce, and the Rev. J. Nl it latiaiiterel the Holy C JlmnllniolJ to a large portlun of the congregation. Great credit is due to Miss Swainson and to Mr Davies for the marked im- provemtnt in the siuging since they have kindly directed the English choir. At seven o'clock the church was ftl!« d to oveill nving, and the Uev. E. Edwards, of Lhll fecliell, give a practical and striking sermon. The oiiVi tory after each service,amounting in all to X7 8,001, was devoted towards paying the debt still remaining on St. Mary's Church. THE NEW ORGANIST AT ST. JAMES'S CHURCH.—We must congratulate the incumbent aud congregation of this church, for having secured, in the place of Mr Landergan, the services of Mr T. S. Bicus. This gen tlemau before he cmie to Upper Bangor Church, made for himself a reputation in several places in England and in our immediate vicinity, his name must be very familiar to the chureli-goiug people of Beaumaris, as a talented instrumentalist, both on the organ and the pianoforte. With these recommendations we sincerely hope that Mr iiiuus's stay in Bangor will be a long, aud also a pleasant and lucrative one, alike to himself and his pupils in this neighbourhood. BANGOR CHORAL SOCIETY.—The members of this society have commenced their practice for the winter months. Their conductor, Mr liinns, of whose capa- bilities as such we have the highest opinion, will, we opiue, use every exertiou to ensure a strictly punctual attendance and a rigid obedience to his instructions, and we have no doubt that he will find his pupils of the most pliant dispositions, and very apt to pick up what ho teaches. We are glad to learn that several new members have joined the society this season. DISCOVERY or A STONE COFFIN IN TUE CATHEDRAL.— During the extensive restoration which is taking place at the Cathedral, the workmen in removing some of the stalls in the south transept have exposed a stone colriti under a canopy Cut out of the wall.

A correspondent draws our attention to a resolution which he tells us has been passed by a committee in one of the quarries of Penmachno, the manager of which took a very prominent part at the Liberal meeting which took place there last Saturday. The resolution advises every true Liberal to trade at the shops of Liberals only," and cautions any one buying of a Tory, that his name will be made known. We give tbe purport of om correspondent's information without vouching for its accuracy; but consideving that a similar "screw" has been applied by the Liberal party to clashes of higher standing in society than qmurymen—and bearing in mind thf recent proclamation" issued by The Liver- pool Wel-di Reform Association" with reference to Dis- s 'liters daring to vott: lor Tory candidates,—we should not be greatly surprised to find that our coi respondent's information is authentic.

CONWAY. BOARD OF GU AIWrAS. The ordinary fortnightly meeting of thisboird was held on Friday (yesterday). Present—John Williams, E-q llodafon, chairman Messrs.

The minutes of the preceding meeting were read and conlirmeil. The Clerk reported that the sums expeuded by the relieving-ofifcers during the past fortnight were as follows -Outrelief— Mr Robert lIngue;, .t:llj ItjsSd; Mr Jesse Jones, £ 15.3 15s 31; total, £ 270 lis lid. Cheques granted-Mr Robert Hughes, tllo Mr Jesse Jones, X151). Balance in haud, £ 805 15s 2J-1. A ivefjliqcnt (' oIlector.-Tite Chairman inquired what course the guardians intended to take with the assistant overseer of the parish of Llandudno. The overseers, Mr Thomas Williams, and Mr Jones, were in an adjoin- ing room,and desired to confer with the guardians as to what had better be done with David Williams, the assistant overseer for the parish of Llandudno, with whom they had much trouble on account of his fre- quenting public houses. They complained that they could not get Williams to do his work, but they wished to say that they did not doubt his honesty, because his accounts were all right. Mr Davies asked if the overseers had not got the I- ) to dismiss him ? The Clerk said the overseers coul I dismiss him. The overseers were theu admitted iuto the room, and Mr T. Williams corroborated the statements (If the Ch titman. The Clerk said the overseers might dismiss him, or the Hoard of Guardians might send to the Poor Law board, and get them to dismiss him. Mr Tnouias Williams said he would prefer the Clerk of the Guardians to write a letter to the Poor Law Board. .Several guardians also said it would be mure de- sirable for the ('lerk of the Board to send to the Poor Law Board. The Chairman s ii(i it was only due to the overseers to take some course in the matter, as those gentlemen would have to suller if the rate was not collected. They had to go afier him to the public hou-es, and Mr Jones had been looking for him in tilteen publiodu uses, one (Jay, and lie could not hud him. No dishonesty was imputed to the collector, but it was very important thai the work should be done in a regular manner. A Guardian said that complaints had been made to the Assessment Committee againot the assistant over- seer. Mr Thomas Williams asked if they had the power to appoint a temporary collector until another was ap- pointed ? The Clerk said tbey could send a substitute to collect the rate for them, but they could not charge his salary. There would be no salary for the substitute, unless allowed by the Poor Law Board. Mr Thomas Parry said that they sustained heavy losses through the rates not ueiug. colleeted in time. Tue guardians had received every fair play at the hauds of the board. The Chairman said a notice had been sent to him to attend the board that day to defend himself, but he had not come. S > that ho could not say he did not re- ceive fair play at their hands. The Clerk wa, requested to write to the Poor Law i; itr(l, a,kiiig them to dismiss David Williams, and ap- point a substitute. Vagrancy.—The Chairman said that it was clear that it wa.A necessary to have some one to look after the vagrant wards in the workhouse. It was said that 900 vagrants had passed through during the past year, and it' that was the case there was no doubt it was necessary to appoint some person to look after them. Mr Robert I [iiglies, Itelievitig-officei,, stated that the vagrants were fearfully on the increase. The end of it would be that they would have to appoint a porter. Several guardians objected to the appointment of a porter, and thought a policeman could be opp tinted to do the work. The Clerk stated they now paid more than 20s a week to these vagrants. Mr Thus. Parry was of opinion that it would pay the board to employ a illan to make the vagrants work as well as those in the workhouse. Several guardians spoke warmly in favour of appoint- ing a police-officer to look after the vagrants, and it was ultimately agreed that a messenger be at once sent to Inspector Evans, asking his attendance at the board. Mr Evans had not arrived in the room when our re- porter left. The remaining business was purely routine.

A STATESMAN ON THE STUMP. We do not wish to be uncivil to Mr Gladstone, but the Stuuip suggests the Magpie-the Magpie and Stump. N, w the magpie is a chattering fowl; and never was the great orator so rich, full-flowing, redundant, and copious as he has been this week. If he who excus-s himself suggests an accusation, so the man who is fooced to dilate so profusely 0:1 his own good deeds hints at the .uspicion that they nuy have been overlooked. To epitomise and distinguish Mr Gladstone's catalogue of his own services, we may summarily sute that at War- rington he enlarged upon his economical excellences, and tt Liverpool upon his pre-eminence as a reformer. On he former occasion -Mr Gladstone was bountiful enough vith his facts, but he very prudently, and indeed pro- erly, evaded the conclusion which, if the facts are ,orth anything, he ought to have drawn. It is quite true that the expenditure of the couutry has increased; » it is qllite true that Mr Gladstone has been consistent enough in his constant protest against the expenditure of the country it is quite true that the expenditure has leapt up during Lord Derby's and Mr Disraelis tenure of office it is quite true that war, and more particularly rumours of war and readiuess for war at every moment, lead to a prodigious waste of money and it is quite true that, as improvements in scientific destruction of human life are always advancing, the attempt to keep up martial efficiency always lags behind martial requirements, and that we no sooner get a good equipment, a good ship, a good fort, or a good gun, than we are obliged to pull it to pieces, or to throw it away and buy a better. But what is the use of this tru' h unless it is followed by some practical consequences ? There is only one con- clusion which ought to follow—it is to let the whole thing go to wait till perfection comes to us, aud in the meantime to spend nothing. If a man says that it is of no usoto spend time and soap on washing his hands be- cause they are sure to get'dirty again, he must have fully made up his mind to keep his hands always dirty because, if he has not done this, all his eloquence about the profligate expenditure on soap is mere talk. If Mr Gladstone, counting the cost—and nobody can accuse him of reluctance or reticence in counting the cost— means, when he has his way, to let the army and navy to go on all they can, we should be much obliged to him to say so, That policy has something to siv for itself, and Mr Gladstone is the man to say that something. The only fault of it, to Mr Gladstone, would be that it is so very intelligible, so very clear, so very open to the meanest intelligence to grasp. Does he say that he in- tends to cut down the army and navy exl)et,diture Does he say that theie is one branch of expenditure in which "I inteu I, as s .n as I have the chance, to spend nothing, or to spend le- than is spent now ?' He says no such thing. On the army and navy estimates it has been proved that additional expenditure could not have been avoided without i i,pairing efficiency. It is open to him to say that citic,eiicy-;ts the city parson said aoouttheotogy—totyoehauget; but, not saying this, he says nothing; and he says worse than nothing, because he atleefs to be saying something which is uothiug. It may be that Lord Derby and Mr Disraeli deserve no credit whatever for the preseor efficiency of the defences of the c 'iiutry, if they are elective, w hich may be doubted. But tue Minister wh • ivsolvesthat the defences of the count y shall, or may for aught he cares, remaiu inefficient, carries another th in his "llieial life in his hand. It may s at Mr Vernon lIarcJUn to s ingest to the uneducated c..isses that they would, if tlu-y were in power, never go to war under any circumstances. The popular feeling ag;tii,,t l,oiiey tw,) generations ago, and what we all remember of the seutiments of the un- educated classes dutiug the Crimean war and in the Trent crisis, point the other way as to the mere matter of fact. But the uneducated classes may have learned political wisdom rapidly and if Mr Gladstone is assured that we shall get on very well without being ready for war, ami is prepared t^ risk it, It), hiiii sky so aijd we shall have to compluuent him on bis courage, and- which at present we ai e not able to du-ou his open- uess of counsel. So about Reform. Mr Gladstone has studied Homer so much that he has quite contracted the true Homeric manner and roll. He is a I, e gues about the cities singing the same lays with the same sonorous amplification, the same sumptuous roll and flow of iteration — the same ton d'apameibouwnoif, the same swift-footed Achilles, the same godlike Greeks, the same Jove-detested Trojans. The divine song is ever old, nud ever to the unwearied singer fresh and new. The audience at any rate is not the same, and the halt1 uas all the tale at his finders' ends. Epithets, incidents, episodes, all the detu s of the I<>ng resouudiug epic, are apt to he just a trilfe wearisome, if we read over and ove»* agiiu the acts of Agamemnou, or if for the twen- t:eth time we are told of the Battle of the Ships and even so, is not the Liverpool speech all written in the b ",k of the Chronicle of Homershani (,<'x, and do we not know all about it-huw the reform bill is Mr Glad- stone's reform bill, and not Ben Short's ? Then there is the compouud householder. Mr Gladstone cannot let his gho»t lie. He summons him froifi the stiades, and holds secret converse with tije deceased old Bogey across the Styx. But all the kiug's horses and all the king's men, and even Mr Gladstone himself, king of men though he he, cannot bring the compound householder back again and Mr Gladstone has givui us once be- fore, aud he will give us once again, the plaintive elegy and eulogy of the Compound householder. That is what. Mr Gladstoue says, and most of it is very true aud very good, ouly rather flit and stjle and there is nothing so tedious as a thrice-told tale, especially if every time it is told it takes longer and longer to tell it. But theu, aa we know, Nestor was the wisest of iiieti, tii-i tiie IoLiger he lived the more he gave way to a tine flux of talk, and the louger he talked the longer his talk was. After ail, it is much more important to inquire, what it is that Mr Gladstone does not iiiy ? For it his garrulity is as silver, his silence, by reason of its rarity, is golden. What lie does n it say is how it came to pass that his own reforiii bill was not a bit like either the reform bill which is, and which he s > mainly helped to make, and tikes so much credit for making, or the reform bill winch it ought to have been, and which his own party would not help him to make it. What is true of the Liverpool utterances about reform is true also of the Liverpool utterances about the Irish Church. In either case, what Mr Gladstone ought to have done, in order to complete his case against his rival, and at once to defeat him at every poiut, would have been to show that the disestablishment of the church—not only now, as things stand—not only is, but always was, the right and the only possible policy. Because, to enlarge on the ac- cepte I platitude that this is the only right course under the circumstances of th- existing situation, is only to show a speaker's command over words. What Mr Glad- stone had to show, and did not attempt to show, was that this always was accepted by true and consistent and proved Liberals, and by statesmen, as the right policy. What Mr Gladstone did not account for -as he never has ae.Jouuti:d for, and we suppose never will account for it—is tho fact that all his colleagues, Lord Russell, Sir George Grey; and every other statesman of nam, al- ways with one voice pronounced against, the policy of disestablishment. What Mr Ghdstone, with all his confidential revelations, did not reveal at Liverpool was, how it came to pass that six weeks before he pronounced against the one Establishment for Ireland, Earl Russell j had solemnly pronounced for three Establishments for 1 Ireland. Mr Gladstone must have admitted, if he had revealed the great political secret of his sudden move- ment, that the eudowment of the Roman community was still, as it had always been, the stateman's policy and the only stateman s policy but that he had taken another line, and had abandoned that plan for the paci- fication of Ireland which from Pitt to Russell had been a prime article of faith, either because he thought the time had come when all established communions must fall, or simply because disestablishment was a ready lever for forcing (town his rival's administration, or a con- venient mode of party assault. At Liverpool, Mr Glad- stone, in search of a plausible reason for his conversion, attributes it to Mr Maguire's book on the Irish in Ameiica. This looks very like an ex post facto justifi- cation. At any rate, Mr Gladstone stands alone in eub- mitting to Mr Maguire's arguments. Earl Russell was not susceptible, for he wrote his letter recommendiug the endowment of the Roman Catho'ic Church in Ireland mouths after the appearance of Mr Maguire's book. Of course all that we have said as to what Mr Gladstone does not tell us has been said a hundred times before, but Mr Gladstone's speeches always compel iteration and repetition. The conclusion of tile whole matter- a conclusion which, as we have repeated, so we shall have to repeat is that during the present week Mr Gladstone has said everything that he has said before, and said it with a wonderful redundancy and copious- ness of speech but the only important matters which we should like to know, we know as little about as ever, and yet exactly as much as we ever shall know.— Saturday Review.
