In the ereninc the annual dinner) Was held In; the Freemasons' Tavern.

Tbe Earl of Crawford and Balcarres presided, and among those present were Mr. Bhirtsa Will, IV Mr. Macdonald Cameron, MJt' Admiral Boys, Colonel on erieff, Mr. R. Giffen, Lien tenant Colonel Bciiit hapter, Mr.

Dr. iladeod, and Sir Graham uptunstone, Unnng trie progress 01 ine dinner a prp rramme of 8eottiah muaie was (rone through by Mr. Limit Beck'j band, Mr. V. Roaa, Her Majesty's piper, and by tba boy pipers of the Royal Caledonian Asylum: The hall was tastefully decorated with the arm prial shields and Tiriejatod tartans of the chiefs of the principal Scottish etsns.

Tba CniTT.VJlir. In proDoainz The Army. Kary. and Beserre Forces," congratulated the people of this country uik uc vcmpia wuia remained uuaeu. av uie present time we were enraged in rcmoring some of the small frictions which had crept into the administration of our Berrieea.

Auitnui Botxs responded for the Nary, and CoufczL MoycKirrr for tie Army. The latter speaker sUted Uiat, being on the headquarters staff, he thought that tho question of economy in regard to the Army was. pushed too far to the front. ought to hare efficiency first, and then the administration abonld be as economical aa possible. Recent warrants in the Army wore constantly altering the position of officers and he hoped the Army might be left alone for four or fire years, and that the men and officers should be those constant changes and retirements which were expensive to the tax payers.

The Army waa in a most efficient condition, and all they asked was that it should not' be starred. They had Sot good men. good recruiting, and able officers, and they wished to feel that there was some" sort of finality about tha arrangements. Tbe Has. Scorr Katies, in nfoooiine The Houses of Parliament," remarked that among Scotsmen nothing need be said in regard to loyalty and respect for order Scots men, wnetner Radicals or uonserratires, were always loyal.

Mr. MaCDOXALD Cxatziiox, M.P., in acknowledging the aaid he was as much opposed as any one to the amount of talk which went on in the Hoose of Commons, Practically he belonged to no party, and would cast his yote whererer bis judgment led him to think that it was for the well being of the country. He cared not for the interests of a particular class or a particular institution. The speaker then referred to the House of Lords, and allu ded to the remark of a preTious speaker regarding the. Senate oi me united btates.

He pointed out tnat wuie the Senate was elective the noose of Lords was hereditary a remark which provoked mingled biases and cheers. a The Cruir.MiK. in proposing Prosperity to the Scot tlsh 'said that about 2S0years ago this country was plunged in deep woe and grief the loss of its Sore reign, tha Virgin Queen. Toe citiaens of London and the Privy Council, beaded by the Lord Mayor, were called together in haste to see who was to succeed to the throne of England. On investigation it was found that the rightful heir was the then reigning King of This King brought with him that love of his country which was proverbial with Scotsmen, and shortly afterwards a society waa formed for the relief of poor Scotsmen in Um metropolis.

Since that day tho society had grown. It baa lived through dangers and difficulties. Twice daring that period its place, of meeting bad been burned, down once' in ICoC and again in 1K77 Tha sentiments which, existed at the foundation of the aoeicty prevailed now love of their countrymen and charity to the. poor. (Cheers.) The functions of the society were to give pensions to those who were indigent and worthy of tha claims' and hospitality of the charity organization.

The report stated that the annual ub aeriptiona and donations for the past year had fallen off to a small degree. This showed no want. of interest or love of Scotland, bat it rather implied that the terrible distress prevailing throughout the country had affected all alike. On the other hand they had to remember that this year a special appeal waa put forth by the directors to establish a fund, whereby there might, be a special fund, known as the Jubilee, Pensioners and. The appeal had been cordially responded to.

(Cheers.) A sum of 2,032 was promised, and of that amount bad been paid in. He paid a tribute to the memories of Lord Idaeslcigb and the Earl of Xalhousie, both of whom had lately passed away, and both of whom were patrons of the corporation. He was informed that the; tchool had been carried on in tha satisfactory manner which had hitherto characterized it. The funds of the corporation were in a fair state, and be thought, considering alL the difficulties and dangers of the, present time of commercial deprenion, they had reason to congratulate themselves that they were not in a worse position than he had stated. He had received telegrams from all parts of the world expressing sympathy and hearty good wishes 'and loving A telegram from Montreal, stated May "Scots in the metropolis of the Empire be as cheerful the nicht as their brithen in Canada' with (Laughter and cheers.) MUOE Gcfjcaix ix proposed Our Guests." Bib G.

Elfhisstoi and Mr. "VTEtSTra, cf South Africa, Mr. Snutzss in proposing the health of the rbaiman, referred to his lordship as being the Premier Earl on the Union Roll of Scotland, and a dis Ungsiahed member of the scientific wofld. The CnAir.MAK.ln replying, aaid the.Celd of work which be bad hitherto, 'affected had not been such as to bring him into public notice. At but, however, he.

bad established a claim on public recognition1 in common with other loyal of the city. Ilei was, be believed, entitled to the thanks of the cemmunity, inasmuch as he had become a special constable (langhter), and had re xnained out On duty the whole of a recent Sunday. (Renewed langhter, and cheers.) Subscriptions were armounced of for the evenln, which included 100 guineas from the Queen, the chairman 25, Lord Wantage 20 guineas. Sir Richard Wallace 30, and Sir Steven CM. SrORTMQ INTXLLIOESCS.

Bit to one waa laid on the winner. Altera Cue i race, Sorcerer spurted up for tbe torn, and never allowed Arbury a whiff of the bare in a stiff course to cover. A grand race the to hare waa made by Huic Halloa and Iltrae. the Utter prtssiog the bar round, but the kill came oS and the course was nndecided, Iluie Halloa thro led Hermes two lengths, and the latter banging off was wwll beaten, but it was not an artistic display on the part cf the winner. Rival Chief was three lengths faster than Penelope II, but in close quarters the latter' proved too smart and left off a decisive winner.

The prohabiliUe are that tha final of tbe Grand Prize will be fought eut by Htrschel and Huic Halloa. They will be well matched: for speed.but Herachd is the smarter worker and is not likely to fail.1 Tba Newton Stakes maybe run! off by Helice and Fashion Follower, and Patent Stopper is perhaps the. best left in the Maiden Stakes.

In accordance with annnal custom. St. Andrew's Day was celebrated at Eton by the contest at tne all between tbe Oppidans and Collegers. A bright autumnal morning caused a large number of old Etonians and others to be present, while on the Wall itself was teated the usual row of onlookers. Punctually aa the College! clock chimed half past 12 the players formed downthe Collegers defending tho Tree or bad calx.

Tho Onnidana ouicklv forced the ball into rivals' half but the Collegers rushed it back and for a few minutes the play was xent dose to coed calx. A long kick by Bailey tent the ball into the centre of the Wall, where a lonir bullv waa witnpxsed. Tho nnmTl.n got the better of some open play, and forced the ball into the Tree calx but no ahy wa gained. After this the Collegers drove the ball close up to tho Oppidana calx, where it was at" change." Some rather smart interchanges of kicking were t.hown, and then the Oppidans rushed the ball into their opponents' calx. They also failed to obtain a shv ball being kicked over the wall into tne oiougn roaa.

leatous Duuies were now witnessed, one being of ten minutes duration. No distinct advantage was gained, and tho match ended in a tie. Oxford V. Cambridge. Elevens representing Etonians at present at' the Universities engaged in their annnal Field game in the afternoon.cn the the company was again numerous.

Cambridge at tint defended the' goal nearest the fires courts, play beginning at a aarter to 3 o'clock. Within a few minutes of the start oiling gained a rouge for no goal resulted. Oxford once aent the ball behind the line, yet no other point waa obtained prior to half time, and the sides crossed over. Cambridge at once drove their rivals back, and some open kicking was followed by even play jiear the midway line. After the game bad jjroeceded for about three quarters of an hour, Murdoch secured a rouge for Oxford but the attempt to bully the ball between the posts failed, aa did another from a rouge by Slagg later on.

Nothing else was scored, and the match ended in a win for Oxford by two rouges to one. Bonsssrt V. Dorset. A match bet ween these coon ties under Association, rules was played yesterday at Street, Somerset, In fine weather. Somerset were nailed the Tietors by two coals to one.

Tha game had pro eeeded tor quite half an hour when a close attack on the Surrey goal ended in Watts ecoring tbe first point for the visitors. Nothing further waa reeordcxl no to half When ends bad been changed Surrey played, trp well, and sner ukx uw i biqi a gueu Qisaiwwoa aaa oaao county brought tha score even, Jansoa kicking the ball between the post.

Tbe third game finished waa that between Lee and Blaekburne, a Roy Lopes attack. The young master played ingeniously, but had to succumb to the English champion after three hours' play. Gnnsberg v. Burn, another 1 rench Defence, produced a very critical game, which wa greatly in favour oi Uunsberg, wno Lad a queen ana two lormiaauc pawns against a knight and a bishop.

Undervaluing the force of Burn's position, Gnnsberg advanced his pawns without, preliminary precautions for defence Burn improved his position, threatening a mate, which his opponent, Gnnsberg, misjudged and needleeqly sacrificed his queen to avert it. Burn soon after again forced a mating position and won in 49 mores and fire hours' duration. Pollock v.

J.

Beattie and two other local gentlemen, I had established in February, 1S35, a Eg ham, in Surrey, in accordance with a scheme I sketched in a letter to the Fall Hall GazttU of January 2, 1885. In an article entitled Free Registries and the Marketing of Labour," published in the National llciicv of last March, I described my scheme in greater referred to the practical that had been made in the country, in London, and in populous towns. There can, of course, be no monopoly in regard to the proposal of so simple an expedient as the registration of unemployed persons, and the provision of an organization through which employers and unemployed can easily communicate together. I only now ask permission to call attention to my previous articles on the subject of free registries for the unemployed because I fear that in the present eager movement to establish such a system in London, previous experience may not be sufficiently con sidered. The primary object of the system of affiliated free registries which I suggested was (to quote my previous article) to provide local organizations for the industrious, reliable, able bodied poor, through which their reliability and good character could be easily authenticated, and thus made available to them at a distance from home, thereby facilitating their migration to localities where even a tern poraiy unsatiified demand for labour may be reported, or their emigration to countries where their permanent employment could be assured." I will not recapitulate here the detailed arrangements by which I think a well or ganized system of affiliated free registries could be rendered extremely beneficial to the' whole industrial.

population of the Empire. Personally, I do not see how the mere record of the names and addresses of all who choose to register themselves as unable to get employment can help the poor applicants to the desired work. Registration is only one factor in tho scheme, and I trust that those who have now taken up the idea will consider carefully the various prac tical expedients I suggested for securing the confidence of employers, and facilitating the marketing of the labour of 1 1 1 loose wno are entered on too registries. The commendatory notice you were good enough to give to my scheme id your leading article of February 9, 186, ana tne Kind encouragement receiTcu from tne lugnt Hen. E.

Stanhope, enabled the assistance of Mr. F. Gore Browne and Mr. H. E.

Egerton, to 'promote registries in various country districts. The latter gentleman will be glad to forward (on application by letter to 11, Tite strect, Chelsea) to anyone desirous of establishing a free registry. in a country district a useful set of forms I had printed in 16SG for starting registries. It has been found that when a registry can bo started in a country district under auspices that will enlistthe support of with a prospect of the initiatory energy being steadily maintained, it is a considerable boon to the local working chutes. In course of time such registries being confined as a rule to the local unemployed of authenticated good character who have resided for a definite period in the neighbourhood can be associated with local benefit, thrift, loan, and relief societies, and put in correspondence with colonists who can occasionally faciliate emigration to assured berths.

It is easy to enforce strictly in the country the essential rule that the registrar shall not interfere at all in the ques tion ot wages, ant tnese wno prcpose to cstaonsn registries in populous towns which are served by a methodical system of trade union houses of call must be careful that the working of their registry does not paralyze the efforts of trade unions to maintain as high rate of wages as the various trades can afford. This danger, to which 'I specially referred in my article in the National lieviev, is a serious one. In country districts neighbourly feeling and local interest can be enlisted on behalf of the local unemployed, but my experience has be permanently worked in populous districts merely by philanthropic impulre. I only know of one working satis factorily, under exceptional circumstances, in a very populous district thanks mainly to the unstinted personal devotion of a lady wbo takes a sustained interest in it. It seems to me that it.

would be very desirable if the nomadic skilled and unskilled labourers cf the country could be attached to the trade anions as associates, en rolled on an entirely different financial footing to the full members, paying a very much smaller subscription when in work, and receiving, of course, a much smaller allowance when disabled or out of work, but enjoying full use of the House of Call. An industrial map of the country should then be prepared by the Trade Union Council, in which, inter alia, all such houses of call should be noted. It may be that such a scheme worked by the trade unions would cast them more labour than they could at present afford, but I believe that through the length and breadth of London a sufficient number of competent honorary workers ofbnaineas habits could be enlisted. through the agency of the clergy, or of the charity organi sation branches, or even of the political, societies, to give a small definite number of hours of personal service per fortnight for such a work. For instance, I.believe an assessment of 'three hnurs' personal service per fortnight on every house between, the Marble Arch and Use Mansion house would nnder satisfactory auipices be generally re sponded to.

I confess that I have been wrong Ln deprecating hitherto the enlistment of political ardour in the promotion of the scheme of affiliated free registries, for all parties vie with one another in seeking to be identified with projects to benefit the wcrkmg classes, and the resultant energy Is, a highly beneficial stimulus, provided only that the pace is not so forced as to compel the hasty adoption of ill considered schemes. I trust that the question may be carefully worked oat by the BxecaUve Oimmlttee which I think ought to re snlt frorn the proposed public meeting on the 6th of De cernber.and that on that orrasion specialists ia rtoramend iag favourite euros for local ailments' wO take into ac count Ua possibld effects specifics on tha whole bodypolitid.

Both Mr Maple and Mr, Henderson were engaged all day yesterday in visiting varioos portions of the consti tuency. The preparations on either aide are; aseomplato as it is possible to make them in' an area so large as Dulwich. A large Dumber of carriages have been promised for the conveyance of voters to the poll. Lord Hartlngtoa telegraphed frcta Dublin yesterday to Captain' Hosier, secretary of the. Liberal Unionist Association, asking him to recommend all Unionists to vote for Blusdcll Maple.

The poll will open at 8 o'clock this morning, and will close at 8 o'clock in the evening, the polling stations being the Lyndhtmt road Board School Bellendeo eoad Board School; Heber rced Board School, Crytal Palace road; Torney road IJcard School, High street, Dulwich College read, Dolwieh school room, Hadley nlace.

A meeting was held last night at the Avondale hall, Bellenden road, Peckham. by the Liberal Unionist Association of Camberwell, in? support of the candidature of Mr.

Blandetl Maple, Dr. Hardy in the chair; A resolution of confidence in Mr. Maple was proposed by Mr. Bond and ultimately carried. During the evening some disturbance was caused by the interrup tions of gentlemen who have recently separated themselves from the Liberal Unionists of the district.

Dottord. The active support which Mr. Evelyn is giving to tho candidature of Mr. Blunt at Deptford has. canted great indignation in Conservative circles in the borough.

Four prominent members of the executive Messrs. G. Bratt, J. Woodward, "VT. II.

Glover; and J. Morley have issued a formal protest against the hen. member's utterances at a meeting held last week. They say Admission to tbn meeting was by ticket only, ana the, room was packed by Liberals and Home Rulers, and a crowd of individuals, many of whom were not electors, and it was with great difficulty that we, who are his con stituents, sueereded in obtaining access and; no attempt waa made to disguise tne displeasure which our presence gave both to Mr. Evelyn and to his Radical supporters.

It is also untrue, as stated by Mr. Evelyn, that tickets were offered to and refused by the Chicheitcr Habitation of the Primrose League. "VVe naturally listened with feelings of surprise and indignation to the remarks made by Mr. Evelyn on that occasion, and our feelincs must be shared entirely, not only by all Mr. Evelyn's constituents, but by all iungashmen who are desirous ol maintaining law and order.

AVealso felt sorry that he shonld so far have forgotten himself as to deacead to vulgar abuse, which certainly does not reflect much credit upon the carrte he advocates. Two or three instances only will suffice to show bow Mr. Evelyn allowed himself to be carried away, lie referred to Mr. John Bright as the broad bnmmed apostle of slaughter to Mr. King Harman as a brawny bully and to Captain Plunkett as tbe Infamous.

These utterances speak for themselves. But we think that tbe Conservative party of Deptford have just cause to 'complain of tbe; distinct breach of a "pledge given by Mr. Evelyn on October 6, when he first intimated to the association the possibility of: his resigning his seat. We were present on that occasion, and he distinctly'statcd that, although he severed himself from the party on the Irish question, on foreign and home politics he would remain a true Conservative, and would leave us untrammelled in the next election. His actions since, his statements at the meeting, and his strong advocacy of Mr.

Wilfrid Blunt's candidature are distinct breaches of that pledge." UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD, Nov. The Board of Electors to the. deDtrtv crofessorshm of Psnskrit will proceed to an election in the course of Hilary Term, lfeea. Tbe salary of the deputy professor is 333 tic.

Sir, I trust you will afford me a small space in your paper to draw public attention to the manner in which the contest at Dulwich is being carried on by the Radicals. On' Saturday Mr. Henderson held a meetinz on a private piece of land at tbe rear of my house, and I went up to the meeting to ask him a question, whereupon I was set upenj. by a number of roughs of the lowest description, not one of whom recognized ai an elector in the borough, and the great majority of them were perfect strangers to the place, brought in vans to the meeting, and, as far as I could gather; were for the most port employ it of Mr. Henderson.

I was threatened with personal violence in the most die 1 gnsting terms, and Mr. Henderson looked on and never by sizn or word endeavoured to' repress the ardour of his partisans. I was threatened that I should get what for before the night was oat, and, accordingly, while I was attending another public meeting, a gang of ruffians attacked my house, and, apparently with the aid of a thief's jemmy, broke do wn a brick pier and stone copingnd having forced their way into my front garden they then flung stones at the windows and door and yelled, Henderson for Dul wich," after which courageous work they fled. I have placed the matter in the hands of the police, and hope yet to bring them to justice but it is surely time that such outrages as these, should be put a stop to. 'Surely those people who do hot see any harm tn the National League while it is confined to Ireland will object to their axgu ments being nsed in suburban London At anv rate; this outrage and the shooting at Mr.Walker show much the Radicals really do value the freedom ot speech, oreven thought.

THE SOLIGITOB GENgRAL LMWISBAU, AX The public examinaUon.of Green way, Smith, and Green way was resumed at the Shire hall, Warwick, yesterday morning.bef ore Sir Richard Harrington, Judge of Use War wick County Court.

The Court was again crowded with creditors. The Official Receiver resumed his examination in chief oi Xelynge Green way, the senior and managing partner in the bank. The debtor said that he had farmed. 1.C00 acres of land at Halloughton, cn which he had sustained a loss of a year. He was director of two limited liability companies, but only received directors fees from one of them.

On the tannery account all the trade creditors bad been paid in full. They did not insist on New an filing a petition because they indulged in the foolishi hope that they would be able to maintain their position. He was afraid they had thus allowed the tannery ereditcrs to take their money, and left the bank creditors without a penny. The Judge. I suppose the fact of it was that had Newman gone in the early stage of the matter you must have gone too? Debtor.

Yes, that was it; Mr. Nathan, as counsel for the trustee, next examined the brnkrupt. In reply to questions, he admitted that Kenilworth Tannery had altogether absorbed 185,000. There had been other small losses, but apart from tbe tannery the bank was making considerable profit. It waa not true that Newman was simply his paid servant.

If there had ever been any profit on the business Newman would have received it. He knew that there were eonsiderable trade transactions at the tannery with Mr. Beesley Brown, but he always looked upon them as ordinary trade transactions. He knew that there were payments to Brown of or 30,000 a year, but had never inquired for what purpose these payments were made. He knew they were abort of money, but always believed they would be able to repay h.

He had hopes of recovering the money lost on the tannery owing to the promises made by Newman. He had also expectations from the farm and the tramway speculations. The debtor was next examined by Mr. H. Stabbins, ot the Midland Circuit, representing creditors of the estate.

In answer to questions, tbe debtor said that the private letters which passed, between himself and Glyn'i had been burnt when the matters to which they referred were1 concluded. There private letters contained the true history of the state of things between himself and Messrs. Glyn. They had received letters from Glyn's calling attention to the overdraft, but not many. In the course of further examination It was stated that the bank account at Glyn's was overdrawn more than 3,000.

Cowper's cheque Jwould not leave them a credit balance, and wjould only reduce their debt. Counsel. Did not Mr. Lakin tell you yotx must not deal with that bill? Debtor. e.

Von knew that by. tending that bill to London you could stave off the evil day. Yes. Yet yoa sent it. Didn't yon know at tha moment that that bill waa in your bank for collection I didn't understand it in that way.

Why did Mr. Lakin refuse to have anything to do with that bill He said it was unusual to send it so much before it was due. Where is that bill now It has been paid. I should think to Messrs. Glyru And Mr.

Cowper is deficient? Well, it stands to Mr. Cowper'e credit. (Laughter.) Did yoa tell Mr. Walter Starke to withdraw his 2.500 from the bank No. Crosa eiamined by Mr.

Wright, wbo 200 creditors. What about this letter sent by yon to Glyn May 2, 1SS2. Gentlemen, Ia reply to your inquiry, we beg to say that Mr. Phillips Newman, of the Tannery. Kenilworth, is in a very way of business and highly respectable, and we" do not think he wonld enter into any business engagements be could not fulfil.

Greenway, Smith and Greenways." What does that refer to It would be some inauiry about his 'trade standing. What made you write so closed his account with an overdraft cf Was it true br false that he met all his engagements? It true, inasmuch as he always did meet his engagements in the leather trade. In face of an overdraft of written off as absolutely bad, do yoa serioasly say that did net! consider it bad we thought he would repay the balance The trade was not stopped, although the account was closed. In answer to further questions, the. debtor denied that certain names naa, been entered Sum pass book merely as a blind to conceal the real parties to whom thft payments were made.

He denied that he was engaged from the 6th to tbe 9th ot September in removine stock and goods wholesalo from Halloughton. He was not aware until tbe previous day that stock sold and goods removed during that period. Up to 1883 it' was the practice for all the partners to sign the naif yearly balance sheets Since that 'date they had only been signed by himself and his brother Thomas. He attributed this to carelessness on the part of tha other partnera. There waa no general destruction of papers about the time of the failure.

Some old letters' at his hone were destroyed. Mr. Wright, of Leamingtoniext examined the bankrupt on behalf of Mr. S. Smith.

Greenway aaid Mr. Smith had nothing to do with tha Kenilworth tannery or the tramways speculations. He was not consulted about them in any way he was simply a salaried partner. When the amount of his lather's interest in the bank was questioned for the purpose of probate Mr. Smith came to him, and waa told that the amoaat should be put at 15,000.

Examined by Mr. Young, his own counsel, tha debtor said that before the Staffordshire Bank took possession he srioke to their manager, Mr. Partridge, about goodwill. Mr, Partridge said that had it been a going concern there would have been goodwill, bat as the doors were closed there could not he any. He would, however, take the matter into consideration.

Arrangements had now been made by which half the profits which the bank paid for five years. 3,000, to be a tai'nimtn should go to the credit of tho estate. Mr. George Greenway, solicitor! aad partner in the, bank, was examined at great length with respect to his Urge over drafts at the bank" and to his bavin? durimr the last six and a half years spent nearly 4.000 a jear, while his annual income was only about from all sources. He declared, notwithstanding this, that his insolvency did not come prominently before bis notice until Septembers last, when the bank stODDetL His.

loss bv atock and ahara dealing was 2.900, but he had made money. The'dealings were not of it speculative character. With respect to a sum bf LC00 belonging to Dr. Kingaley's trustees, he said! he Qrst gave security on property which was subsequently sold, and then he proposed to give his brother KelynzeL who was one of the trustees. 900 shares in the Stourbridge Tramway, but that arrangtcent was never acted upon.

A document found among the securities at Leamington, date I March 25, 18S4, handing to George Greenway 900 such shares as security for money in his hands belonging to Dr. Kingsley's trustees, was produced, but be still persisted that proposal was never carried' into' effect. He agreed that with respect to large advances to the Kenilworth Tannery and. the niacin; of the Stourbridge and Magdeburg Tramways the provisions of the bank deed of partnership had not been observed. As to the Tannery he knew of the large over drafts, but he understood Mr.

Newman had stock ia the pits which would eventually mine the amount, and that tbe undertaking; could be made to pay. He denied that the business was" ever his brother Kelynge's private undertaking, aad exclaimed that when a partnership was proposed it was princi pally to enable tha bank to securo three parts of the pmnts towards reducing Mr. Newman's heavy over draft. lie was in Birmingham when the negotiations with Glyn's failed. butja telegram received from hi brother Xelynge ixndon waa sent on stating; ire Gr Jen, LtibcryTbeka 2." That was an enigma ne could not understand, but he got (another telegram asking' bun to return' home immediately and he did so, arid: learnt from his brother the failure, of the negotiations.

They then decided. to close the bank. sThey tried to 'negotiat with the Staffordshire iBank for the goodwill, bat they said there was not any as the bank waa closed. As to the repayment of 23.000 to Captain Starkie. his brother in law.

I eliarged lust with making aa uacandid statement in his spewhat HoB as totheriort payrnentof rates by landlords in the six unions of Mayo and Gal way, to which ha was referring.

Oa this, the most serious matter, he is silent, because, I trust, aahaxned. I railed attention to tho fact that the Corhmissioners reported that itwas considered unfair to proceed against landlords for rates on property the rent of which they had ireetaved, while many estates were in the hands of receivers under the Court of fJhancery, the owners being reduced to want by the partial or total rion payment cf rent by small tenants." I also stated the important fact, which Mr. Morley neglected to tell hit audience, that the landlord ia solely liable for the rates when the tenancy is at or under 4, a circumstance not unimportant ia these six union, seeing thai out ot a total of 6,370 holdings 17.CC2 are thus exempted altogether, tha rates fatting oa the landlord. Mr. Morley, rpeating of the causes of non payment of rates by tenants, followed tha words of the Commissioners but not quite, terialisa.

It eaa only be caught in boats or be collected in creels and carried oa their backs to the dry land, where It Is transferred to carts or to the backs of horses, bat Mr. Morley's CThrtlishmrrits; find no place ia the report of the Commissioners.

They simply served as padding for a speaker who wanted to produce a sensation. Again, Mr. Morley denies that he tried to.keep oa good terms with the Pamellites by granting all they asked: because he says he was warned In vain by Mr. Dillon ia the se nd reading of the EeHef Bill of WS that if he did not adopt some different machinery there would, be danger of waste and maladministration. This is rather an uaf or tunate example of his obduracy, because Mr.

Morley's machinery was to be tha employment of temporary inspectors sent down by the Local Government Board, who were to exercise their full powers, if they found that the boards of gnardisxts were not doing their duty and were' leading themselves to brin about a miscarriage of the Act. On this point some strong language was used ia tha debate, and Healy compared these' inspectors to mammies of tha Persian epoch who would go1 down to Uie distressed districts to administer this Act "ccf? tainly aj novel employment for mammies cf any epoch. Now Mr. Dillon's proposal was a reasonable one namely; that Mr. Take and Mr.

Brady, beta ef whom bad administered relief wisely, aad well ia these districts for many years, should be intrusted with the matter to av certain extent and if this proposal had been adopted it is certain that the terrible scandal brought about by tha boards oil sisxdians would have occurred. In fact, the rejectionW this proposal and of other smendments by the Irish members is another proof of my assertion thai Mr. Morley belongs to a doctrinaire tad self sufficient race of, politicians who when ia ofo5' Ignore the testimony of persons of practical knowledT'ahd become at once era nisdent as well as omnipotent. He has thus saddled these six unions, whom he described on introducing his Bill as absolutely unable to bear the pressure of any further rate," with the payment of the'sum of 15,700, madly ex pended in addition to the 33,000 granted ia the Act. Mr.

Morley says I am no authority on Irish may be very true, but is not an issue that need raised here. The question for your readers is whether as a resident in the centre cf the district of which, Mr. Morley at HuQ, a district in which I have lived and given employment for 23 years, and ra which I ara bow paying a heavy poor rate as the result of bis vagaries, am mora likely to know tha circuiiatanosa of tho people th. English politkiaa "with a tendency to theory, and an eye compuhwxrOy turned to the exigencies of very. disagreeable political situation.

Mr. Morley distia rnt.kA tiia ir ten are of ogee by threatening the Honsa of Commons with the' fear cf outrages if it thwarted tha Paraellite, and 'was properly rebuked for ait speeches dealing unworthily wita threats of asaaasanatlon, and aa baa rnoreorer left, as a perraanent mark of his powers as aa administrator, tha memory of 40,000 wasted ia pauperising the West and in the institution of publie works in great part useless. 1 am.
