AT THE PALACE. The cdowd- outside the palace gates wasenormous. Gladstone finished reading bie papers, telegraphic and mail corres- ponaenee atan early hour. He spent the remaindersOf the morning and part of the afternoon in conteMplation. He TeffISed to permit himself to be disturbed by calla from any of the iarge numbers of persons who attempted to see him, excepting John Morley, Chief Secretary for Ireland, whom he sent for, and con- ferred with for & short time. • THE PREMIER'S RECEPTION. alr. Gladstone went in an open car- riage to the House, and his appearance was greeted with deafening cheers. The enthusiasm of the people all the way to the Commons entrance was spontaneous and thrilling. It vented itself at the be - glazing of the journey in a roar of ap- plause hearty and great enough to make the great statesman dizzy, and when the whole immense multitude caught the signal one tremendous long sustained sheer was sent up, the like of which was never before heard in London and which was plainly audible in the louse. The cheering continued until long after Mr. Gladstone had entered the Parliament buildings. At 4.30 p. in. Mr. Gladstone entered the House, his entrariee being followed 'Timid, prolonged cheering, which con- tinued for several minutes. It is safe to say no such scene was ever witnessed before in the House of Commons. The Right Hon. Arthur Wellesley Peel, Speaker of the Hense, took the chair promptly at 4 o'clock. The Chamber at the time was packed to the very extreme limit of its capacity, and every door -way and hall was crammed witb people. t-7'srd"'"ddrs=a1 As soon as the cheering had ceased, Mr. Gladstone rose and moved for per- mission to introduce a bill to amend previous legislation and to make pro- vision for the future Government of Ire- land. ' Mr. Gladstone spoke 3 hours and 25 minutes. He finished at 8 o'clock amid loud and prolonged cheering. Mr. Gladstone's address is said to have been the most able and convincing, although, perhaps, not the most elo- quent of his life. The scheme which he proposed is, in substance, as follows: He proposes the establishment of an Irish Parliament to be located in Dub- lin. This is to be a dual body consist- ing of two orders-7one containing 103 members, i. e., a representative for each constituency as the constituencies stand to -day, and the other 206 members, or two members for each constituency. The first order will apparently dis- charge some of the functions of an Up- per House,- and its members will be elected for ten years under a high fran- chise; Whilst the other order will con- stitute the Irish House of Commons, and its members will be elected as at present. But both orders are to sit and deliberate in one Charnber, consider all questions jointly, and ordinarily - vote as one body. A separate vote of the two bodies on any measure may be demand- ed, and either body can, by voting against a measure which has passed the combined body, veto it for three years or until the next dissolution. Irish re- presentation at Westminster is to be abolished altogether, in other words, haland is to be deprived of all voice in Imperial concerns.Nevertheless, she is to be compelled to pay a share of the imperial expenditure. This share or tribute is to be the first charge upon the Irish revenues. The Irish Parliament is to have full power over local taxation, which is to be collected by officials ap- pointed by the Irish Government ; but the customs and excise revenues are to be turned over in the lump to an Im- perial receiver, who is to deduct the amount of the anhuale tribute, viz„ i3,240,000, and also -the interestpayable on such Irish loans as England may guarantee for Irish purposes. What is left is to go into the Irish treasury. The fiscal powers of the Irish Parliament are to be limited, however, by a provision forbidding the imposition of duties on English goods as well as any alteration of the Imperial duties on foreign goods; that is, as Mr. Gladstone puts it, "the commercial unity of the three kingdoms is to be preserved." The Irish Ministry will control the magistracy, and ap- parently the judiciary also, but the con- stabulary will be controlled by the Viceroy, and the imperial troops by the same authority. The Viceroy himself is to be a non-political imperial officer —that is, like the Governor-General of Canada and the Governor-General of India, he will be appointed by the Crown for a spedfied term, not having as now to retire with a change of Min- istry at Westminster. These are the - principal features of the bill in so far as it relates to the executive and legislative bodies. As for guarantees, the only one of any moment appears to be the -veto, a veto upon all .A.ets of the Irish Parlia- ment being vested in the Crown, which is to exercise it, of course, upon the ad-. vice of its imperial Ministers. Mr. Gladstone has not yet succeeded, he says, in arranging- guarantees for the rights of the Protestant minority. Sev- eral schemes have been- proposed to'hine, one being to let Ulster stand aloof from the other three provinces and remain as she is at present, with her representa- tives in the Imperial Parliament; but he eVidently does not look favorably on that suggestion. Nothing is likely to be decided regarding the fate of Ulster until the Bill reaches the Committee of the House. Meanwhile provision is made against the establishment or en- dowment of a State Church by the Irish Parliament, though that body is to have full contrel of education. The land ex- propriation scheme for buying out the landlords is kept in the backgroond for the present, and forms no part of the measure now before the House. Mr. (iladstone left the House ten minutes after concluding this speech. He was affected by the reaction after the intense excitement of the day, and was obliged to retire to rest immediate- ly after dinner. —An old Irishman named Kavanagh, formerly of London, but who with his wife and daughter is now living in De- troit in great poverty, has discovered that he is heir to a fortune of a million dollarnleft him by a sister who died re- cently in Sydney, New South Wales,1 and of whom he had heard no tidings for twenty years.

To the Editor of THE HURON EXPOSITOR. • DEAR SIR,—I notice in your last issue a connnunication from Mr. Campbell purporting to be a reply to an article of mine, published a few weeks ago. He has put a construction upon some of my statements (perhaps not intentionally), which, if not corrected, might mislead the public in the object which I had in view, namely, the present system of jadging at our spring shows. I do not wish it -to be understood that I intended to throw any slur upon the judges'when I advocated a, change in the system, as I believe, generally speaking, they -give their awards to the best of their abili- ties, and I have yet to find a horse- ownet who does not deplore the fact that the fat upon the animal is one of the prime factors in winning a prize. Mr. Campbell says, "it is usual, first, to Make a diagnosis, and then apply the proper remedies." I think I have pre- scribed the remedy; but it might be im- proved upon, by instructing the judges - to consider over -feeding a bar to suc- cess. I am aware that there would be some difficulty itt drawing the line, to say when over -feeding commences, but I believe that objection would shortly be overconae. Over -feeding is a grievance that has been recognized by the breeders of horses in Scotland for a number -of years, and several remedies have been suggested. One of them is the one I have proposed ; another, that a com- mittee be appointed to go before the judges and strike out all entries showing undoubted signs of injury from over- feeding ; a third plan. is, where hoises are rented for the season by agricultural societies, to appoint a committee to se- lect a horse sorne time provious to their exhibitions and give the, owner instruc- tions with respect to the condition they require him to be in when the 'season commences. Each of these plans has its merits and demerits, but it would occupy too much of your. space to dis- cuss them at present. Mr. Campbell proceeds to draw a comparison in modes of feeding. He says the lean horse is the horse I would give the prize to, and says the air he breathes is impregnated by the poisondus gases emanating from the decomposing organic matter beneath him. I am not aware that I suggested any such course of treatment, and don't think any sane person would do so. He next refers to my statement of the principal cause of tile large death rate amongst foals. True, we have no sta- tistics on this question, but I have been a resident of this county for thirty- eight years, and a farmer -during that time, and I know that the death rate of foals some twenty or twenty-five years ago sinks into insignificance when com- pared with the last few years. Mr. Campbell would certainly not say that it was through the neglect of owners of mares or the want of proper care that all those losses occur. I can assure him that it is far from my intention to at- tempt to injure those individuals who have invested a large portion of their funds in importing horses into this county, more especially, fortunately or unfortunately, as I am one of the num- ber. But I do think if a remedy could be found to avoid even a portion of our lows it would lpe to our iutereet to do so. In concluqibn, to confine ourselves to the subject under discussion, I would ask Mr. Campb 11 to answer the three following questi ns : First, does he be- lieve .that ove eeding is injurious to horses; second does he consider the present system 4f judging at our spring shows a correc one—if not, would he suggest a bet , r one; third, if my theory of the liirge death rate amongst foals is not correct, would he be kind enough to give ts the correct one? As these are subjects in which a large num- ber of people re deeply interested, I it hope Mr. Cam bell will further favor your readers a d the public with his opinions upon them. Yours Truly, I ROBERT MCMORDIE. Kippen, April 13,i 1889. • —Two boys in Stratford; aged 13 and .14 years, stole a stove, broke it in pieces and sold it for old iron, receiving 80 cents for their steal and trouble. They were arrested, convicted, and the magistrate has them under lock and key until it is deterinined what to do with them. —An Avonbank correspondent says: One of our young men who owns a farm and an empty house started out last week to purchase cattle wherewith to stock his farm. After three days so- journ he returned minus the cattle, but —well we won't tell on him --suffice it to say that he is very well pleased with his trip. —Miss Bertha Dixon, of Listowel, has passed a very successful examination at Alma College, which is in affiliation with the Ontario School of Art, Toron- to, and was awarded a certificate of merit for free hand sketches and model drawings. • —The wife of Mr. John Whyte, jr., of Mitchell, died on Monday, 5th inst. Deceased was much and deservedly esteemed in the community and her de- mise is greatly regretted, particularly by the bereaved husband, who has been left with threb children of tender years. —The auction sale of imported stal- lions, the .ptoperty of Mr. A. Carlton, at Clinton, on Thursday of last week, was largely attended. The following sales were made: "Gallant's Model," a beautiful bright bay, was bought by Mr. Martin, London Road, for $1,500. "Young Topsman," a magnificent dark dappled horse, was sold to J. P. Fisher, Auburn, at $1,385. "Gay Lad," light grey, considered to be the best horse of the lot, color excepted, was bid in at $1,240. `.‘ Scotland's Glory," bay, sold to Mr. E. Martin, of Londesboro, for $1,105. "Northern Champion," bay, was bid in at $800. The prices realized for the three sold were, on the whole, considered to be below the actual value of the horses, which were really first- class animals.
