Si Michael IUcks Bsach's address to the CoaTtiT worlin men of Gloucester Ust night postetses puticulAr interest as being the rt important sUtement. takde on behslf of the Minittry anring nnususlly quiet wmh. Nsili, as we Inow, re being rigorously hammered into the coSn of the Gorernnient or, rather, as Ma. Morxet on his return fromMunster intimated, the Government are rocijessly peifonning that operation for themselves. It is gratifying to learn, in face of these dismal announcements, that the Presides! of the BoAro of Trade and his colleagues are in a state of serene satisfaction as to the.

present condition of their political health. They think that the country is fairly prosperous and contented, and that in its prosperity and content the bull of the population is by no means hauntd by that ravenous craving for heroic legislation which the Gladstonians seek alternately to stimulate and to soothe. A section of enthusiasts more or less honest may desire to inSict a compuisory eight hours' Bill on English industries, regardless of the economic ruin such a measure must inevitably bring. A party in Scotland may be eager for disestablishment and dis endowmentr and a faction in Wales may hunger for the tithes. While the masses of Celtic Ireland may 'be taken as supporters of.

Home Rule. These factions are doubtless considerable in numbers. Ther are aggressive, demonstrative, and loud. But, after all, they form only a small part of the great silent body of voters on whom the real fate of Governments depends. The Government wisely believe that the good and solid work have achieved, both as legislators Wwms forced upon them will be those paid in this country to the proprietors of slums." Th suggestion ts childish as an imputation on the landlords, the condition of whose property is, in most cases, largely due to circumstances wholly beyond their control.

But it affords a useful illustration of the temper in which Us Gladstone' lata Chief Secretary now habitually approaches Irish problems. The portion of Mr.1Uk LXt's speech which has becu awaited with deepest interest will bo generally read with a good deal of disappointment Mr. Morlxt deals at some length, with Colonel Caddell'b observations on his speech at St, Helen's, but he now regards tho details of the controversy as unatted for platform discussion. Ho accordingly treats in a vague and general fashion such topics as he himself is pleased to select, and loaves tho more inconvenient of his opponent's allegations unanswered. The fact is, as a politician of Mr.

Morlet's experience should have foreseen, that tho subjoct is unsuited for a popular audience at all. Had Mr. JIouley borne tho elementary principle in taind that untrained crowds are not fit judges of complex issues cf fact between conflicting witnesses, ho never would have opened his lips on tho Tippcrary riots at St. Ilelcn's. He wilfully disregarded the wholesome tradition of our public lifo.

which reserves such, matters, at all events when they are the subject of pending proceedings, for the investigation of competent coutts of inquiry. Ho deliberately made a detailed statement which ho knew must bo met by counter assertions of fact, and ho has left the public to for themselves between his allegations and those of the man ho attacked. Last night ho reiterated the substance of some of his former charges, and made a general declaration that he adhered to every one. of them. Hut ho added no single circumstance which, in tho judgment persons trained to weigh evidence, can affect the credibility or otherwise of his former mixed recital of facts which ho alleged he had seen, and stater ments ho admitted ho had only heard.

Tho truth is that, while Ms. Morlet's account of the Tippcrary episode may continue to bo useful for electioneering purposes in its present form, it can acquire valuo as evidence in the eyes of experts, and of educated men who suspending necessary or useful outlay because an appeal to the constituent body is drawing near, At the same time we agree with Lord Lisa ex that the objsct which Ma. SriciK and those who supported him had in view was neither a matter of urgency nor one specially germane to the proper duties of the Council. It is true, the Council possesses a statutory power to tako measures for the development of technical education in but it is a permissive power only, and one that ought not to bo exercised to tho detriment of other and more pressing work. Apart altogether from the fact that to have applied the whole sum derived from tho new duties to the purposes of technical education would have landed the Council, as Loud Lixuex showed, in an immediate deficit, apart also from tho possibility, which must not bo left out of account, that tliis windfall may not recur again, but that next year's Imperial Budget may cither repeal tho extra duties on spirits and boor or devote them to some other, purpose, the strongest argument against Mr.

Shcer's amendment is that tho Council should not sacrifice to an object outside tho proper sphere of its labours any tasks which it has already undertaken or is under an obligation to carry out. Lord Lixgex enumerated sortral cf these, though he did not refer to the most prominent and necessary of all tho progress of well considered street improvements tccanse, perhaps, tho declared policy of tho majority is to postpone those until the so called principle of betterment has been forced upon tho Legislature. Over and above this primary duty, however, the Council only a week ago decided, wisely or unwisely, to take steps to get into its hands the control of tho water supply cf tho metropolis a gigantic operation, whether wo look at it from tho financial or from the administrative point of Tiew. Moreover, as Lord Lingem says, tho ghost of the Thames tunnol is not yet laid the increasing evils of the sewage outfall at Barking imperatively demand attention open spaces and improved dwellings for the working classes must Lo provided in accordance with modern notions of publio health and pullio decency. When all these problems have to be dealt with, and surely the majority of the Council ought to bo tho last to deny that to deal with them is of urgent and indispensable necessity, COURT CIRCULAR.

Bin Hejbt Trueua Wood, secretary of the Society of Arts, was present to receive the delegates, whom ha welcomed as members of a kindred institution. M. JCLES LXRUIXA, perpetual secretary, presented a report on the question of copyright is the Catted States. It stated that the association heard with deep regret of the issne of the discussion raised in the Hooe of Representatives on the Copyright Bill. One hundred and twenty six members opposed a third reading, 98 were favourable to it, and 103 abstained from voting.

As Mr. Hopkins, of Illinois, proodlr Delated ont, 13 Bills of a similar character had already leea introduced with the same result namely, the positive rejection of any measure designed to extend protection to non American authors. The views endorsed br the the open air were within' the last three weeks VV Vm Dotf deP' bopes eard.ii. supplied to the Rojal table, and the gardens are still attach proper value to expert opinion, by one it would appear something mere than absurd to simple process only. If Mr.

Morlet's story is make the windfall from tho spirit and beer true, tho right placo to tell it from is not a duties, which is not7to be counted upon as a party platform in England, but the witness permanent addition to' tho revenue, a pre table in Tipperary, Certain of the persons con text for committing the ratepayers to an indefi cenieu in vae uiaturoance mere are to bo pro nite expenditure on technical education. There ceedod'against to morrow. The Courts are open to any xf the others who may feel aggrieved, and Mr. Morlet ctnnot insinuate that, in this case at all events, pjverty precludes tho injured parties from seeking redress in as many appeal Courts as they please. Mr.

Morlet, by his own showing, is a material witness in these cases. Mr. Harrisox informs us, in a print this morning, that he will to morrow bo prepared to contradict OoloselCaddell's allegations against him upon oath, and subject to tho most searching cross examination." Is Mr. Morlet ready go and do likewise I Can ho confirm Mr. Harrison's story as.

of his own knowledge upon oath Can he repeat on the witness table and subject to cross examination his version of the Keating episode I If he can do these things successfully, he will certainly have done something to impugn Colonel Caddell'8 character for veracity, and to prove the accuracy of tha farrago of excited charges which he laid before the Separatists of St. Helen's last week, and rehashed last nicht for their brethren of Swindon. is much 'force in Lord Lincex's argument that if technical education is to be provided for London, the proper body to take it in hand is the School Board. At a time when there is a general reluctance to increase the rates, and when the loss to tho revenue from the coal and wine dues beginning to be severely felt, it is hardly possiblo to doult that the attempt to undertake tho work Mr. Spicer thinks of paramount importance would result in tho suspension or contraction of expenditure on other Lusincss of much greater urgency.

The decision of the Council was, on the whole, consistent with common sense, thodgh it betrays something of the tendency to regard tho relief of the rates as tho first consideration, the dangers of which we pointed out some days ago. It is evident that the Progressists are dividod between the desire to give effect to some at least of tho extravagant promises they have mado to tho poorer classes among the electors, and tho fear of alienating the ratepayers by a too rapid incrcaso of burdens.

JIorlet ruled one, the Council practically decided to apply to trie administration of the Poor Law in six Weston onions, and got a grant of 20,000 from Parliament to he.lp them.

He gave tho money to the Eiiaruians ol the threatened districts to dis pense, and his successor tells us how these pa iota dispensed it. They relieved everybody They relieved their own relieving officers. They relieved large farmers; with pknty of cattle ad sheep. They relieved men with money in bank. They even relieved, the local moneylenders.

So generous were they with tbe Imperial 'ds that they actually had En their relief lists, at leaitono instance, a number of names largely exceeding the wldo population of the union. Then the guardians found out that it of the "pense would fall upon themeelves, and in a week, at the worst time of the year, the number on the relief list in Clifden union to take of several instances fell from 18,000 to 3,600 wls.

th necessity of a revised budget and an extra levy upon the ratepayers. The calculations of the financiers of the Council appear to have been in error to the extend of not less than 117,000, partly owing to the over estimation of the receipts from the probate duty and from licences within tho financial year, and partly to the abandonment of a charge on the City parishes that could not bo maintained. Had it not boon for tlila windfall," duo, in tbe first place, to the introduction of Mr. Gosches's ill fated jlan for tho purchaso of publichouso licences, and, in the Dext place, to its failure, it is tolerably clear that the rates must have been increased for the next six months by something like a penny in the pound. As tho Council are already aware that tho ratepayers have, reasonably or unreasonably, begun to exhibit dissatisfaction at the.

growth of their burdens during the past two years, and to inquire in a very critical spirit what it is thatthey have obtained in exchange, it is not surprising that tho policy of including tho money thus voted by Parliament in the general revenue of the year should have had an irresistiblo attraction for the Finance Committee. Accordingly, the rate for the second half of the current financial year is to bo based on tho revenue as augmented by these Mixtra recoipts, though, to satisfy the scruples oi tnosa wno contcnu mat it ougnt to uo devoted to some special purpose, it was proposed that the question of the ultimate application of the sum in dispute should be referred to a Special Committee, particularly with a view to determining whether any, and, if so, what, portion of it should bo expended, as a section of the Council insisted, on technical education. Mr. Spiceu's amendment, proposing to carry the 140,000 to cany out their avowed intentions would involve a very largo expenditure and would probably lead to a revolt of the ratepayers. Hence Mr.

Spicer and Mr. Docbledat received little support from their own party yosterday, while the proposal to carry" the windfall of 140,000 to a suspense account and to allocate it wholly or partially to technical education was backed by several members of the Moderate party. It is not unfair to assume that those who touk this line were not so oager to induce the Council to enter on a new sphere of labour as to accentuate the undoubted fact that the Finance Committee was cut in its reckoning, and, perhaps, to deprive the Isst evening at 3 30 p.m. on ber return to Bucharest, to think that in refusing to an author the right of travelling rid Queenborougb and Flushing.
