Loxpov, Aril .O,—Tile news a ers
,.throughout. Great. Britain and Ireland
comment at great".length on Glacdstone's
scheme for Irish' government:.
The Liverpool Post says: Whether
Gladstone is successful or not in carrying
his•bill through parliaeient he haa'forever
killed oppression and coercion in Ireland.
Proposals so unexpected as those made,by
the premier, the Post says, requires time
to consider.
The Manchester Guardian, says, it is n
scheme substantially for the'epeal of leg-
islative union between Great Britain and
Ireland. If the bill is.not rejected by par-
liament it must, in its central feature, be
recast. The representation of Ireland 'at
Westminster must be retained, then with
this modification, the measure may: pass.
The Newcastle ,Journal deelares the
scheme to be cumbersome and unwork-
able.' Besides' that • it -is crude and dan-
gerous and is certain to be rejected'. " ..
'Th'e Newcastle: Chronicle says though
the. meastire may admit of :improvement
in detail, IA, is .the best. scheme ever pre
sented to parliament: . • . The Edinburgh Scotsman says the bill
will not do as it stands. The exclusion
of Irish members frgtn Westminister-will
be fatal. - Gladstone _1ias.,apProachetl.the,
subject With • heroic spirits. i13ut.'his de-.
sire'to be- generous to Ireland has' carried
him' too fir. He was asked to give hottte
rule, and he' proposes'to'give repeal. -It
is safe to say ,that the country will not
sanction the scheme.
The Edinburgh Daily Review-recogniz-
8es Gladstoae'a ` pure, lofty and patriotie
arms," but bays it .is. disappointed at the
exclusion of Irishi, members from the im
penal. parliament. 7-,
